Download or read book The Designer’s Guide to Spice and Spectre® written by Ken Kundert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering productivity in integrated circuit product design and - velopment today is limited largely by the effectiveness of the CAD tools used. For those domains of product design that are highly dependent on transistor-level circuit design and optimization, such as high-speed logic and memory, mixed-signal analog-digital int- faces, RF functions, power integrated circuits, and so forth, circuit simulation is perhaps the single most important tool. As the complexity and performance of integrated electronic systems has increased with scaling of technology feature size, the capabilities and sophistication of the underlying circuit simulation tools have correspondingly increased. The absolute size of circuits requiring transistor-level simulation has increased dramatically, creating not only problems of computing power resources but also problems of task organization, complexity management, output representation, initial condition setup, and so forth. Also, as circuits of more c- plexity and mixed types of functionality are attacked with simu- tion, the spread between time constants or event time scales within the circuit has tended to become wider, requiring new strategies in simulators to deal with large time constant spreads.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "After a combat incident in Iraq, Cal "Spectre" Martin was grounded and told he would never fly an F-16 again. Years later, he started a new civilian life with his F-16 pilot fiancee while being haunted by the nightmares of his last deployment. But when she goes missing on a routine training mission off the South Florida coast, Spectre unwillingly finds himself thrust back onto the frontlines of the war on terror - this time, not in the skies over Iraq, but on the streets of Miami. While searching for answers, Spectre uncovers a deadly international conspiracy that shakes his beliefs to the core and threatens national security. The stakes have never been higher as Spectre rises to overcome his inner demons, challenge his friendships, and take to the skies once again in a daring final mission"--Back cover.

Download or read book Anderson & Low written by Anderson & Low and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bristish artist duo Anderson & Low has created a highly original art project based on the brilliant artifice of the spectacular sets from the latest James Bond movie, Spectre. Shooting entirely at Pinewood Studios, UK, the artist duo highlights a head-on collision of fantasy and reality by photographing the sets' massive scale and extraordinary detail. Allowing the bare soundstage to intrude on the images would normally shatter the illusion of the sets. In this case, however, it has the reverse effect and enhances the sense of illusion, artifice and wonder. Through a poetic and painterly eye, the beautifully designed and magnificently photographed images bring to life these detailed and massive tableaux, creating a poetry and narrative fantasy that mirrors the movie. This book represents a unique study in movie-making and constructed narratives in photography. Exhibition: Camera Work, Berlin 24.6.-27.8.2016

Download or read book Interprétation des spectres de masse en couplage GC-MS - cours et exerices corrigés written by BOUCHONNET Stéphane and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C’est avec une réelle volonté didactique que cet ouvrage aborde l’interprétation des spectres de masse pour confirmer ou élucider des structures chimiques. Les publications scientifiques dédiées à la spectrométrie de masse sont souvent complexes et présentent une approche très théorique, souvent difficile à comprendre et à mettre en pratique. Ce livre se fait fort, grâce à sa simplicité et à sa démarche ancrée dans la pratique, d’offrir aux débutants comme aux spécialistes du domaine, les clés de cette technique. Un premier chapitre présente des rappels de chimie organique nécessaires à une bonne compréhension des réactions impliquées. Dans un deuxième chapitre, les mécanismes de formation et de dissociation des ions sont détaillés : ruptures simples et réarrangements, fragmentations secondaires, etc. Ces mécanismes sont illustrés de nombreux exemples concrets. La seconde partie de cet ouvrage propose une cinquantaine d'exercices corrigés permettant d'acquérir maîtrise et autonomie. À la fois manuel universitaire et guide pratique quotidien, L’interprétation des spectres de masse en couplage GC-MS constitue une référence pour tous les utilisateurs de couplage GC-MS tels que les ingénieurs, techniciens, chercheurs, étudiants, etc., débutants ou confirmés, désireux d'interpréter judicieusement leurs spectres de masse. Outre l'élucidation structurale, la compréhension des mécanismes qui régissent l'interprétation des spectres permet l'amélioration des méthodes analytiques et la fiabilisation des résultats.

Download or read book Spectres of Reparation in South Africa written by Jaco Barnard-Naude and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-25 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that South Africa is haunted by the spectre of reparation. The failure of the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission to secure adequate reparation for the victims of colonisation and apartheid continues to drastically undermine the commission’s processes and legacy. Investigating the TRC’s key processes of amnesty, archiving and forgiveness in turn, the book demonstrates that each process is fundamentally thwarted by the terminal lack of reparation. These multiple forms of the spectre of reparation haunt post-apartheid society in deeply traumatogenic ways. The book proposes a new ethic of "reparative citizenship" as a means of encountering the spectres of reparation in a productive and transformative manner, generating hope even in the face of the irreparable. This book will be an important read for South Africans interested in overcoming the impasses and injustices that haunt the country, but it will also be of interest to post-conflict transitional justice and politics researchers more broadly.
