Embedded Processor Selection/Performance Estimation using FPGA-based ProfilingObeidat, Fadi 26 July 2010 (has links)
In embedded systems, modeling the performance of the candidate processor architectures is very important to enable the designer to estimate the capability of each architecture against the target application. Considering the large number of available embedded processors, the need has increased for building an infrastructure by which it is possible to estimate the performance of a given application on a given processor with a minimum of time and resources. This dissertation presents a framework that employs the softcore MicroBlaze processor as a reference architecture where FPGA-based profiling is implemented to extract the functional statistics that characterize the target application. Linear regression analysis is implemented for mapping the functional statistics of the target application to the performance of the candidate processor architecture. Hence, this approach does not require running the target application on each candidate processor; instead, it is run only on the reference processor which allows testing many processor architectures in very short time.

Analysis of the Kindernothilfe self-help group approach for the empowerment of the Ngabe indigenous people, Panama : an empirical qualitative study in the Muna District of the Ngabe- Bugle ComarcaMannale, Daniel 11 1900 (has links)
This research examines the applicability of the Kindernothilfe self-help group
approach among the Ngäbe indigenous people in Panama from the
perspectives of complex system theory and development as empowerment. It
is based on an extensive literature review and an empirical qualitative study
with focus group discussions and expert interviews following the grounded
theory method.
The dissertation displays the multiple dimensions that have reverberated to
poverty and to the failure of development and most group approaches in the
Ngäbe region. Nevertheless, it indicates that a culturally fitting self-help group
concept could become a promising approach to empowering the Ngäbe people.
Some crucial adaptations, however, are necessary. The most significant
change regards the suggestion to work with mixed-sex ‘family groups’ that
combine peer group meetings and joint gatherings. It represents the most
suitable approach both from the perspective of the Ngäbe people and from the
viewpoint of gender mainstreaming and complexity. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)
