Clearing bits within an integer is important if we want to isolate bits or set them to zero before we insert a new value. The bitwise-AND does this for us.

Discussing how to use bitwise operations to manipulate the bits of an integer would be academic if we couldn’t perform the operations in our code. The good news is that we can!

The ability to set bits may not seem important at first, but many algorithms in computing depend on just that. Join us as we control bits and build integers from scratch using the bitwise-OR.

<p> Using established spur gear design practice, a user-oriented computer-aided design package is created by which a user requires minimal knowledge of, or experience in either FORTRAN, optimization or gear design. although this practice is risky since the designer a judgement should be employed to the same extent as in a manual design. The package is essentially material independent with options to specify the design variables as constant, standard or variable. The great flexibility incorporated in the routine enables the designer a full range of design features from control to power gearing. The structure of the package enables implementation of new theory or new optimization criteria with relative ease. </p> / Thesis / Master of Engineering (MEngr)

Italian Polka is an experiment that builds a bridge between Music and the field of Costume Design. It explores the new relationship of integration and artistic possibility between Music, Costume Design, Dance, and Digital Art. This is also an attempt to participate in a new form of performing art: a combination of a live concert and a costume show. / text

No. of bitstreams: 1 Eduardo Eiji Ono.pdf: 2983486 bytes, checksum: 555fd173b51e9b918419662dff14295d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-03-07 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This study aims to elaborate a comparison between the applications of graphical, management and computational design in Brazil and the US. Because the digital revolution, technology companies primarily in Silicon Valley, USA began to implement new design applications not only in the graphics area, but also in technology and business management and changed the concept of building physical products. However in Brazil, the situation is more precarious because the design application is still limited to the use of graphic software due to several factors such as the lack of design students, deficient academic education and the low usage of the design in business. This research wants to collaborate with an updated view of design in Brazil using international methods and concepts / Este estudo pretende elaborar um comparativo entre as aplicações do design gráfico, de gestão e computacional no Brasil e nos EUA. Com a Revolução Digital, empresas de tecnologia principalmente no Vale do Silício, EUA, começaram a implantar novos métodos de aplicação do design não somente na área gráfica, mas também em tecnologia e na gestão de negócios e ajudaram a mudar o conceito até então vinculado com o projeto de produtos físicos. Porém no Brasil, a situação é precária, pois a aplicação do design ainda encontra-se limitada ao uso de softwares gráficos devido a diversos fatores como a pouca quantidade de formandos, a formação acadêmica deficiente e ao baixo aproveitamento do designer no mercado. Esta pesquisa quer colaborar com uma visão mais atualizada do design no Brasil utilizando métodos e conceitos consolidados em empresas internacionais de tecnologia

Increasing the complexity of modern electronic systems leads to Electronic System Level (ESL) modeling concept, which supports hardware and software co-design and co-verification environment in a single framework. SystemC language, which is an IEEE approved electronic design standard for system design and verification processes, provides such an environment by supporting a wide range of abstraction levels from system-level to register-transfer level (RTL). In this thesis, two different models of a processor core, whose instruction set architecture (ISA) is compatible with 16-bit TI MSP430 microcontroller, are designed by employing the classical hardware modeling capability of the SystemC language. With its well-designed orthogonal instruction set, elegant addressing modes, useful constant generators and flexible von-Neumann architecture, 16-bit RISC-like processor of the MSP430 microcontroller is an ideal selection for the system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs. Instruction set and addressing modes of the designed processors are simulated thoroughly. In addition, original 16-bit and 32-bit cyclic redundancy code (CRC) programs are used in order to verify the processor cores. In this study, SystemC to hardware flow is also illustrated by synthesizing the Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) part of the processor into a Xilinx-based hardware.

Resultantly manual drawing gradually is phased out, for those designers who have no prior experience in the computer operation are concerned, they need to have a kind of two-dimensional graphical tool.

All these have been finished after 1 month or so.
