The #1 VLSI design guide-now fully updated to reflect the latest advances in SoC design
"Modern VLSI Design, System-on-Chip Design, Third Edition" is a comprehensive, "bottom-up" guide to the entire VLSI design process, focusing on the latest solutions for System-on-Chip (SoC) design. Wayne Wolf reviews every aspect of digital design, from planning and layout to fabrication and packaging, introducing today's most advanced techniques for maximizing performance, minimizing power utilization, and achieving rapid design turnarounds. Coverage includes: Advanced interconnect models: new techniques for overcoming delay bottlenecks, reducing crosstalk, and modeling copper interconnectAdvanced low-power design techniques for enhancing reliability and extending battery life in portable consumer electronicsTesting solutions for every level of abstraction, from circuits to architecture Practical IP-based design solutionsA thorough overview of HDLs, including new introductions to Verilog and VHDLTechniques for improving testability, embedded processors, and more
VLSI design for today's high-performance, low-power devices requires broader, deeper skills than ever before. "Modern VLSI Design, System-on-Chip Design, Third Edition" brings together those skills in a single, comprehensive resource that will be invaluable to every VLSI design engineer and manager.
European Tort Law 2001 by H.Koziol, ISBN 3211838244
The Yearbook on European Tort Law provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the law of torts within Europe and thereby enables scholars as well as practitioners from different national backgrounds to keep abreast of questions concerning tort law. The Yearbook contains reports on the developments of tort law in the EU Member States (except Luxembourg), Switzerland, Poland and the Czech Republic as well as a report on the developments in the field of EU law. Additionally, with South Africa, one non-European country is included. In conclusion, a comparative overview reviews the essential aspects of all reports. The reports are written by scholars from the respective jurisdictions and, focusing on the year 2001, they include important court decisions, critical remarks on these decisions, a presentation of new legislation and a literature overview. In addition to the national reports, essays on key topics in the field of tort law are included in the Yearbook.

Mahler and His World by Karen Painter, ISBN 0691092443
From the composer's lifetime to the present day, Gustav Mahler's music has provoked extreme responses from the public and from experts. Poised between the Romantic tradition he radically renewed and the austere modernism whose exponents he inspired, Mahler was a consummate public persona and yet an impassioned artist who withdrew to his lakeside hut where he composed his vast symphonies and intimate song cycles. His advocates have produced countless studies of the composer's life and work. But they have focused on analysis internal to the compositions, along with their programmatic contexts.
In this volume, musicologists and historians turn outward to examine the broader political, social, and literary changes reflected in Mahler's music. Peter Franklin takes up questions of gender, Talia Pecker Berio examines the composer's Jewish identity, and Thomas Peattie, Charles S. Maier, and Karen Painter consider, respectively, contemporary theories of memory, the theatricality of Mahler's art...

The Global Environment and International Law by Joseph F. C. DiMento, ISBN 0292716249
"Written in a way that will be accessible to non-specialists . . . this book will help them understand international legal processes relating to the environment, which is how most environmental issues are addressed these days. . . . The information is solid, the examples good, the theoretical structure useful, and the topic important."--Elizabeth R. DeSombre, Frost Associate Professor of Environmental Studies and Associate Professor of Political Science, Wellesley CollegeInternational law has become the key arena for protecting the global environment. Since the 1970s, literally hundreds of international treaties, protocols, conventions, and rules under customary law have been enacted to deal with such problems as global warming, biodiversity loss, and toxic pollution. Proponents of the legal approach to environmental protection have already achieved significant successes in such areas as saving endangered species, reducing pollution, and cleaning up whole regions, but skeptics point to...
