Full textEnergiförbrukningen av storskaliga högpresterande datorsystem (HPC) har blivit ett av de främsta problemen för såväl ägare av dessa system som datortillverkare. Det har lett till ett förnyat intresse för alternativa datorarkitekturer som kan vara betydligt mer effektiva ur energiförbrukningssynpunkt. För detaljerade analyser av prestanda och energiförbrukning av dessa för HPC-industrin nya arkitekturer krävs väloptimerade implementationer av standard HPC-bänkmärkningsproblem. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att tillhandhålla ett sådant högkvalitativt verktyg i form av en implementation av ett bänkmärkesprogram för LU-faktorisering för den åttakärniga digitala signalprocessorn (DSP) TMS320C6678 från Texas Instruments. Bänkmärkningsproblemet är samma som för det inom HPC-industrin välkända bänkmärket “high-performance LINPACK” (HPL). Den här presenterade implementationen nådde upp till en prestanda av 30,9 GF/s vid 1,25 GHz klockfrekvens genom att samtidigt använda alla åtta kärnor i DSP:n. Detta motsvarar 77% av den teoretiskt uppnåbara prestandan, vilket är jämförbart med förväntningar på effektivteten av mer traditionella x86-baserade system. En detaljerad prestandaanalys visar att detta tillstor del uppnås genom den högoptimerade implementationen av den ingående matris-matris-multiplikationen. Användandet av specialiserade “direct memory access” (DMA) hårdvaruenheter för kopieringen av data mellan det externa DDR3 minnet och det interna kärn-privata och delade arbetsminnet tillät att överlappa dessa operationer med beräkningar. Optimerade mjukvaruimplementationer av dessa beräkningar, delvis utförda i maskinspåk, tillät att utföra matris-multiplikationen med upp till 95% av den teoretiskt nåbara prestandan. I rapporten ges en detaljerad beskrivning av dessa två nyckeltekniker. Energiförbrukningen vid exekvering av det implementerade bänkmärket kunde med hjälp av en för ändamålet anpassad Advantech TMDXEVM6678L evalueringsmodul bestämmas till maximalt 2,92 GF/J. Resultat från verifikationen av bänkmärkesimplementationen och en uppskattning av mätosäkerheten vid de experimentella mätningarna presenteras också.

Full textThe research aims to study the interrelationship between the contemporary architecture design processes, mediated by computer technology and the biology processes, with a view under the concepts of ecology, supported on system theory and cybernetics. The analyzes aim to relate issues on the spheres of theory and practice, within the observation of design processes, through the following steps: 1. Introduction and understanding of the current paradigm shifts in biology, ecology and computer science, which directly holds the modes of producing information in architecture digital design processes; 2. Thoughts on cybernetic theory and complex systems like links between biological processes and architectural design processes, with implications in emergence and innovation in architecture 3. Analyses of study cases about design processes and digital production integration recurrent from the interrelationship between architecture and biology.

Full textThe thesis explores the Cibersemiotic approach to design processes from the perspective of digital mediation and its relationship with contemporary architecture. It presents a review of existing digital design processes, based on the assumption that the practice of architects and designers, according to the contemporary modes of life, currently requires a different position in relation to the management of information, as well as a critical reflection on the design methods used in the architecture of the digital age. The thesis\' theoretical foundation is based on the Cibersimiotic work produced by the Danish philosopher Søren Brier, which unifies two important conceptual frameworks: the Semiotics by Charles Sanders Peirce and the Second Order Cybernetics proposed by Heinz von Foerster. The thesis proposes a structure (or framework) to analyze existing designs from the cibersemiotic point of view, as well as a structure (or framework) for the digital design processes themselves. The work is presented in two parts. The first examines the digital processes and production as well as the theories they are based on. This part also presents the theoretical context for the structure (or framework) used to analyse selected existing designs and introduces the framework. The second part presents strategies for digital design and proposes the cibersemiotic framework for digital design processes. It is believed the thesis contributes towards the expansion of the Cibersemiotic theoretical paradigm as well as provides a working framework for the increasingly complex processes of digital design. Assuming other spatialities and interconnections will arise from the update levels established from communication between different systems as well as new social and cultural challenges, it is essential that architects are aware of available theories and processes for optimizing design potential and expand the possibilities for Architecture and Urbanism.

Full textThis research is characterized as a study of graphconceptual analysis concerning to the importance of processes of creative action related to the subject of the movement by means of representation forms and exploration of space and time in the Architecture. It introduces the representation in the architectural language, understood as the relationship between time and space. It investigates how the movement - being a possible synthesis of this equation - can be noticed, represented and interpreted in the generation of an architectural project. The dissertation contemplates the change of paradigms which characterize the transition of the representational methods, from analogical to digital movement expressions in the architectural language, as well as new parameters of projetual reasoning by means of the analysis of projects of architects, designers and artists. It contextualizes the manifestations of clear relationships in Architecture within the understanding of space, time and movement as a basis of comparative reflection between the modernity and the contemporaneity.

Full textA presente dissertação de mestrado pretende abordar a influência das ferramentas digitais durante todo o processo arquitectónico, demonstrando a evolução desde o uso do lápis à utilização da robotização, alterando assim a forma de pensar do arquiteto, não deixando de referir a influência da arte na Arquitetura. Esta mudança de pensamento não é característica apenas dos dias de hoje, sendo visível ao longo da dissertação de que os grandes nomes da aquitetura, também passaram por uma fase de mudança de paradigma, fruto da evolução tecnológica, que levou ao aparecimento de novos estilos e teorias. O paradigma actual reflecte-se na utilização das ferramentas digitais e na forma como elas vão influenciar a Arquitetura dos dias de hoje. A variedade de ferramentas existentes permite que arquiteto explore a sua criatividade, de uma forma mais complexa e precisa. Como exemplo disso foram escolhidos três casos de estudo com o objetivo de demonstrar o desenvolvimento e a utilização das ferramentas digitais e como estas influenciam o arquiteto no processo de desenhar e pensar Arquitetura. Reflete-se no caso do Museu Guggenheim, um dos ícones da Arquitetura Contemporânea, do arquiteto Frank Ghery, sendo perceptível a grande utilização do software (CATIA), como uma ferramenta digital pioneira na Arquitetura. No caso do pavilhão ICD/ITKE, o arquiteto Achim Menges demonstra que o processo de cooperação, entre as várias ciências e as ferramentas origina uma Arquitetura final inovadora, resultante dos mesmos. Finalizando com o caso de estudo da Sagrada Família, um exemplo da utilização das ferramentas no processo de finalização da obra.
This master thesis aims to address the influence of digital tools throughout the architectural process, showing the evolution from the use of pencil to use the robot, thus changing the way of thinking of the architect, not forgetting to mention the influence of art in architecture. This change in thinking is not characteristic only of today, being visible along the thesis that the big names in architecture also went through a phase change of paradigm, the result of technological developments which led to the emergence of new styles and theories. The current paradigm is reflected in the use of digital tools and how they will influence the architecture of today. A variety of existing tools allows architect to explore their creativity in a more complex and accurately way. As an example was set the three case studies in order to demonstrate the development and use of digital tools and how they influence the architect in the process of designing and thinking architecture. It is reflected in the case of the Guggenheim Museum, one of the icons of contemporary architecture, by the architect Frank Gehry, with noticeable great use of the software (CATIA), as a pioneering digital tool in architecture. In the case of ICD / ITKE pavilion, architect Achim Menges demonstrates that the process of cooperation between the various sciences and tools lead to innovative end architecture, resulting thereof. Finishing with the case of the Sagrada Família study, an example of the use of the tools in the work of finalizing the construction process.

Full textAssuming digital technologies simultaneously as media and environment that influence and make feasible the emergence of an architectural thought ready to incorporate the complexity, the goal of this work is to increase the understanding circa interfaces between complexity and architectural design processes. This approach draws on understanding the scope of the change brought by complexity, its historical, and its fundamental principia, aiming to achieve subsides for defining criteria to analyze and select examples of complexity emergence in architecture, focusing on design process. Two periods of time were selected from 1960s to 1970s and, from 1990s to 2000s , distinguishing two specific moments closed related. The intention is to contribute for an effective understanding of architecture not merely or specifically as object, but as a complex system, simultaneously organized and organizer.

Full textThe thesis intend to understand the mediation of the numerical technologies on architectural procedures (thought and gênesis). It supposes that the digital support as a virtual and interactive space for design is resulting of a gradual evolution of these technologies undergoing through the continuous flux of cultural transformations. It locates at the XX century second half the emergence of a new racionality based on the terms relation, system and organization replacing the modern concepts of function, structure and order. Diagrammatic thought, analogy and the experimental and dialogical priom (material/procedure), enable the recognition of a machinic architeture.

Full textThe teaching of architectural design is commonly the main curricula structure in architectural graduation in Brazil. Even though, over time, project teaching has been difficult to define by static methodologies to teach its practice and learning. In fact, there are lots of methodologies proposed and in development to teach the activity of design. That´s because the design activity involves inter relationships between several knowledge domains and skills that´s interact in a nonlinear way. With the digital revolution of architectural practice, a new paradigm reveals itself as a particular challenge to Brazilians architecture schools: how to introduce, in the course curricula, structured methodologies to architectural design teaching in an articulated manner with digital media that explores computational tools beyond graphic representations boundary. Analyzing the general panorama, it is possible to note that this practice is still in its initial stages in Brazil (ROMCY, 2017). According to Orciuoli, (2009) digital architecture is still seen with some resistance by the architecture faculties themselves. In this sense, this work proposes to study strategies to develop projects using digital algorithmic and parametric media in a discipline of architectural design as well as the knowledge necessary to carry on these computational tools An action research was developed in disciplines of the 4th semester of the architecture faculty where they were proposed exercises relating instrumental disciplines with design disciplines to connect computational knowledge to design strategies. Next was analyzed the integration between a BIM software with a algorithmic/parametric modeling software. To this end, instrumental grants were able to assist people in the development of digital capacities, using the complex forms reducing in this way the usual gaps related to a lack of technical skills on reasoning or drawing with digital tool. Data developed by the students before and after the implementation of the digital design approach was analyzed comparatively in order to detect problems, potentialities and effectiveness of the proposed teaching strategy.

Resumo: Anúncios recentes sobre os limites do desempenho dos processadores devido ao alcance da barreira térmica têm motivado a pesquisa sobre novas organizações arquiteturais e modelos de execução que visam continuar o aumento de desempenho dos processadores. Este trabalho propõe uma nova arquitetura de processador denominada 2D-VLIW. A arquitetura possui uma organização arquitetural baseada em uma matriz bidimensional de unidades funcionais e de registradores distribuídos ao longo dessa matriz. O modelo de execução 2D-VLIW possibilita que instruções longas, formadas por operações simples, sejam buscadas na memória e executadas sobre a matriz de unidades funcionais. Além disso, são propostos algoritmos para geração de código para extrair o paralelismo e preparar o código para ser executado sobre a arquitetura. Algumas contribuições deste trabalho são a concepção de uma nova arquitetura de processador que explora paralelismo em nível de instruções através de um novo arranjo dos elementos arquiteturais, a adoção de um modelo de execução que captura a geometria dos DAGs e associa os vértices e arestas desses DAGs aos recursos do hardware, um conjunto de algoritmos para escalonamento de instruções, a alocação de registradores e a codificação de instruções na arquitetura 2D-VLIW. Os resultados experimentais comparam o desempenho do modelo de execução dessa arquitetura com o modelo EPIC adotado pelo processador HPL-PD. O speedup obtido por 2D-VLIW foi de 5% at'e 63%. A estratégia de escalonamento adotada por 2D-VLIW foi também avaliada e os ganhos obtidos através do OPC e OPI foram até 4 vezes melhores que aqueles obtidos por um algoritmo de escalonamento baseado em list scheduling
Abstract: Recent announcements on processor performance limits due to the thermal barrier have motivated research into innovative architectural organizations and execution models to sustain the increase of performance. This work proposes a new architecture named 2D-VLIW. The architecture provides a new architectural organization of the processing elements by using a two-dimensional functional units matrix and registers spread out along this matrix. The 2D-VLIW execution model fetches long instructions comprised of simple operations in the memory and dispatches these operations to the matrix. Moreover, the work presents new algorithms for code generation which are the responsible for extracting the parallelism of the applications and preparing the code for the 2D-VLIW architecture. Some contributions of this work are a new high performance architecture that exploits instruction level parallelism by a new arrangement of the architectural elements, the adoption of an execution model that captures the geometry of the DAGs and matches them to the hardware resources, a set of algorithms for code generation that make them possible to schedule instructions, allocate registers and encode long instructions of the 2D-VLIW architecture. Experimentos were used for comparing the performance of the 2D-VLIWexecution model to the EPIC execution model of the HPL-PD architecture. The speedup obtained by 2D-VLIW ranges from 5%-63% for all the evaluated programs. The scheduling strategy based on subgraph isomorphism was also evaluated and the OPC and OPI gains were up to 4× better than that of the list scheduling algorithm

Full textThrough an interdisciplinary perception, the research presents a contribution framework for the theory of contemporary architecture that examines some relations between concepts, processes and representations. The work investigates design processes present in contemporary architecture from the assimilation of three key concepts: 1) diagram 2) fold and 3) parameter; and corresponding translations in architecture through the discourses and practices of architects. The research falls within the sphere of the theory and criticism of architecture design and the historical period is set between the 1970s up to now, examining the projective expressions and theories of architects such as Peter Eisenman, Greg Lynn, Patrik Schumacher (Zaha Hadid and partners), among others. The problem of research is to identify how the conceptual nature experienced by design processes in the first period of study - diagram - began to intermediate a parallel theoretical basis for the advancement of digital use - fold - and changed in a third period to emphasize discursively processes and formal manipulation allowed by the technical and advanced digital technologies - parameter. The objectives are understand the elements of this transition, draw parallels and differences between the processes, understanding that the history of these entanglements is not linear and cumulative, but crossed by recurrences and reappropriations. The authors were chosen due to their theoretical production and insertion in the international debate on the topics chosen, for sharing the assimilation of theories stemming from the philosophical basis of post-structuralism - especially from Gilles Deleuze - as well as established a design activity of experimental features, which allowed the analysis of several case studies.

Resumo: A utilização de técnicas de Fabricação Digital está cada vez mais presente no campo da arquitetura e construção por todo o mundo, devido aos avanços tecnológicos que os sistemas CAD (Computer-aided Design) e CAM (Computer-aided Manufacturing) têm proporcionado aos processos de concepção e produção da obra arquitetônica. As possibilidades que essas ferramentas oferecem aos arquitetos e projetistas abrem caminho para novas abordagens de projeto, que permitem o uso da produção automatizada sem a necessidade de uma padronização tão rígida como aquela imposta pelo sistema industrial. Entretanto, nota-se que a aplicação dos métodos de Fabricação Digital no processo de produção do espaço edificado no Brasil é lento, quando comparado a outros países onde a tecnologia necessária para o exercício da técnica já se encontra amplamente difundida. A presente pesquisa tem como foco investigar a aplicação da Fabricação Digital, por intermédio de processos file-to-factory na produção arquitetônica de elementos para a construção civil, mais especificamente com o uso de técnicas subtrativas de corte 2D. Após um levantamento sobre o estado da arte da área e o desenvolvimento de dois estudos de caso, o método utilizado foi a pesquisa-ação, por meio de um exercício de aplicação do conceito file-to-factory. O processo de projeto foi documentado detalhadamente e analisado para a sistematização dos procedimentos, que servirão de referência para futuras aplicações no campo da arquitetura. Espera-se, com isso, contribuir para a divulgação dessas novas tecnologias na produção arquitetônica no cenário brasileiro
Abstract: The use of Digital Fabrication techniques is increasingly present in the field of architecture and construction throughout the world. Systems such as CAD (Computer-aided Design) and CAM (Computer-aided Manufacturing) have provided technological advances to the architectural design and production process. The possibilities that these tools provide to architects and designers introduce new design approaches, which allow the use of automated production without the rigid standardization imposed by the industrial system. However, it can be noticed that the use of Digital Fabrication methods in the built environment production process in Brazil is slow when compared to other countries where the technology is widely incorporated. This research focuses on investigating the application of Digital Fabrication, through file-to-factory processes in the production of architectural elements for the construction industry, specifically with the use of 2D subtractive cutting techniques. After a survey on the state of the art in the field and two case studies, the method used was an action research through a file-to-factory exercise. The design process was documented in detail and analyzed in order to systematize the procedures as a reference for future applications in architecture. As a result we expect to contribute to the dissemination of these new technologies in architectural production in the Brazilian scenario

The aim is to contribute to the understanding of the art of memory as an aid to the conception of spaces as memory systems.

Resumo: Nos últimos dez anos as novas tecnologias digitais e os processos de produção pós-industriais têm se firmado como grandes aliados do processo de projeto arquitetônico, da fabricação de componentes e da construção do espaço construído. Esta pesquisa analisa as inovações recentes na área de informática aplicada à arquitetura, tendo em vista sua incorporação no processo de projeto e na formação do arquiteto. Em especial, discute a importância da inserção de prototipagem e fabricação digitais no currículo de arquitetura, de maneira integrada às disciplinas de projeto e demais matérias da grade curricular. O trabalho teve início com um levantamento de teses desenvolvidas nos últimos anos na área de informática aplicada à arquitetura, na qual se constatou uma grande diferença de foco entre os trabalhos desenvolvidos no Brasil e no exterior. A partir dessa constatação, foram desenvolvidos experimentos pedagógicos no curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da FEC, na UNICAMP, com o objetivo de introduzir conceitos sobre as tecnologias de prototipagem e fabricação digitais e seu uso no processo de projeto. A partir dos resultados obtidos, foi desenvolvi da uma proposta de inserção dessas novas tecnologias no curso analisado em particular, e nos demais cursos de arquitetura brasileiros em geral, de maneira integrada às demais disciplinas do currículo. Espera-se que os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa contribuam para a inserção dessas tecnologias na formação do arquiteto no Brasil, e conseqüentemente para uma evolução da arquitetura brasileira, com a incorporação dos novos métodos de produção pós-industriais.
Abstract: During the past 10 years the new digital technologies and the post-industrial production have been incorporated to the design process, to the production of building parts, and to the construction of buildings. The present research analyzes the recent innovations in the area of technologies applied to architecture, aiming at its incorporation into the design process as well as in architectural education. It discusses the importance of the insertion of digital prototyping and fabrication in the architecture curriculum, in such a way that it promotes the integration between the design studio and the other subjects in the curriculum. The work began with a survey of recent theses and dissertations about technology applied to architecture. The survey showed that there is still a great difference between the works developed in Brazil and abroad. Next, some pedagogical experiments were developed at FEC, aiming at the introduction of digital prototyping and fabrication in the design process. A proposal of insertion of these new technologies in architecture courses was then developed. The results obtained in this research are expected to contribute to the insertion of these technologies in the architectural education in Brazil, hopefully leading to an evolution of brazilian architecture with the use of new post industrial production methods.

Resumo: O uso de displays interativos introduz novas possibilidades de participação e interação entre os componentes de uma equipe no processo projetual em arquitetura, em suas diversas fases. O presente estudo se concentra em duas questões. A primeira etapa da pesquisa consistiu em uma revisão da bibliografia sobre a importância do desenho no processo de projeto. Em seguida foi realizado um levantamento das tecnologias disponíveis que permitem produzir esboços manuais diretamente em formato digital. Dentre essas tecnologias, duas foram escolhidas para o desenvolvimento da parte experimental da pesquisa: a lousa interativa e a mesa digitalizadora opaca. A etapa experimental da pesquisa teve inicio com um estudo piloto para avaliar a potencialidade e a interação dos equipamentos com os alunos. Em seguida a metodologia sofreu alterações em função dos resultados preliminares e um novo experimento foi realizado no segundo semestre de 2008, nesse experimento pode-se obter resultados que auxiliaram a descrever benefícios e deficiências do uso de displays interativos no processo de projeto. Espera-se que a pesquisa propicie a inserção de meios digitais no ensino de projeto de arquitetura e reformule a dinâmica atual do atelier de projeto convencional
Abstract: The use of interactive displays introduces new possibilities for participation and interaction between components of a team in the design process of architecture in various stages. The present study started with the identification of the difficulties in sharing information that design teams have to deal with during presential meetings. The study has focused on two issues. The first stage of the research consisted of a review of the literature about the importance of collaboration in the design process. Next, a survey of the available technologies that allow the production of manuals sketches directly in digital format was performed. Among these technologies, two were chosen for the development of an experimental research: an electronic whiteboard and an opaque tablet. The experimental stage of research began with a preliminary study to assess the capabilities of the equipment. The initial methodology was adjusted, according to the preliminary results, and a new experiment was performed in the second semester of 2008. This experiment allowed to obtain results that describe the benefits and shortcomings of the use of interactive displays during the design process. The present research is expected to contribute to the integration of digital media in design education and to help reformulating the dynamics of the architectural design studio

Full textTiivistelmä Usean antennin tekniikka yhdistettynä ortogonaaliseen taajuusvaihtelumodulointiin lähetin-vastaanotimessa on esitetty eräänä lupaavana ratkaisuna jatkuvasti kasvaviin kapasiteetti- ja palvelunlaatuvaatimuksiin langattomissa tietoliikennejärjestelmissä. Tehokas radiospektrin käyttö edellyttää joustavaa lähetin-vastaanotinratkaisua, mikä on ollut syynä ohjelmistoradioteknologioiden kehitykselle. Ohjelmistoradioiden kehityksen on puolestaan odotettu mahdollistavan kognitiiviradioiden syntymisen. Tuloksena, mikä tahansa radiosovellus voitaisiin herättää tarpeen mukaan millä tahansa ohjelmoitavalla sovellusalustalla. Tässä väitöskirjatyössä tutkitaan ilmaisinalgoritmeja sekä ohjelmoitavia prosessoriarkkitehtuureja tarkoituksena löytää käytännöllisiä ratkaisuja tulevaisuuden langattomiin järjestelmiin. Ohjelmoitavalla vastaanottimella voidaan vähentää vastaanottimen energiankulutusta vaihtamalla ilmaisinalgoritmeja vallitsevan kanavatilan mukaan. Työssä esitellään laaja, viimeisintä tutkimusta edustava ilmaisinalgoritmivertailu, joka antaa realistisen näkökannan toteutuksiin erilaisissa kanavatiloissa. Lisäksi työssä esitellään numeroaritmetiikka- ja sananpituustutkimus, jonka tarkoituksena on arvioida toteutusten realistista kovokompleksisuutta sekä energiankulutusta. Tutkimus sisältää kattavan suunnitteluketjun algoritmikehityksestä todelliseen prosessorisuunnitteluun ja lopulta algoritmin ohjelmointiin tietylle sovellusalustalle. Väitöskirjatyössä arvioidaan yksi- ja moniytimisiä prosessoritoteutuksia vertaamalla saavutettuja tuloksia Long Term Evolution -standardin suorituskykyvaatimuksiin. Ilmaisimia toteutetaan digitaalisilla signaaliprosessoreilla, grafiikkaprosessorilla sekä siirtoliipaisuarkkitehtuurilla. Toteutustuloksia vertaillaan laskentatehona, pinta-alana sekä energiatehokkuutena. Lopuksi käsitellään arkkitehtuurien hyviä ja huonoja puolia sekä suunnittelun työläyttä

Full textThe scenery of big cities such as London, New York, Dubai, Shanghai and Seoul exhibits some types of buildings with organic and fluid shapes that are part of a proposal that uses information tools and programming for their creation and feasibility. This work in¬vestigates how feasible surfaces considered complex through the theme Design for Pro¬duction, a stage that deepens the process of making, after creation. The complexity is characterized as the use of a high technological level for the elaboration of the systems, of the component in its morphology and, in relation to the module, material and geom¬etry (PAOLETTI, 2006). For the understanding of the problem, the text contextualizes the contemporary moment and the participation of the digital instruments in the daily life, making a retrospective of the ways of production and the automation of the industry and parallels with the civil con¬struction. It deals from the 1st. Industrial Revolution until the 4th. Industrial Revolution, according to Schwab (2016). In order to discuss the Design for Production, the state of the art is verified, later confront¬ing two conceptual aspects of the role of the architect in the process, one that argues that the professionals have directly acted in the digital manufacture with files sent directly to the factory File to Factory and another that understands that the process is distribut¬ed in stages and specific teams and depends on particular skills and knowledge to the production of the object. It presents two cases developed in Italy: the first one designed by Norman Foster & As-sociates, the United Arab Emirates Pavilion for the Milan International Exbition, which was made with panels of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concret stamped with the texture of the desert dunes and the second one a corporate tower designed by Zaha Hadid Architects office for the CityLife Milano, which has a trapezoidal glass panel sealing surface that demonstrates the twisting of the tower on its vertical axis. Finally, the work proposes a model of a Design for Production of complex surfaces from the deepening of the case studies, considering that the proposal is part of a project stage carried out by teams of professionals qualified to perform the details, search for solutions, in-depth research regarding the materials to be used and the requirements necessary to carry out the works at the place of implantation.

Full textThe urgent need for changes in high school in Brazil led the researcher of this thesis to propose changes in the traditional way of working with the chemistry students. With the development of information and communication technologies, it is necessary that the public is included in the digital culture that may be part of the global society of today. Thus, it is also the school's task to find the inclusion of subjects in digital culture and use of new technologies is important and should be considered when planning activities for learning with students from the Basic School. The main object of this thesis research was to study the cognitive processes that involve aspects of the learning of chemistry with the use of these technologies. It is found as a pedagogical architecture oriented students, containing experimental activities, production of videos and digital models in the development of digital environment-Squeak Etoys, can contribute to the construction of chemical knowledge. The Pedagogical Architecture means as a set of strategies, group dynamics, educational software and tools to support cooperation to promote learning. The analysis of the processes experienced by the subjects of the research was motivated by the Genetic Epistemology of Jean Piaget. From the analysis of data from the research aims to propose guidelines for the teaching activities with the use of digital environments, where processes occur in which the subject may pose, extend and consolidate their knowledge.

Full texthis research paper discusses the architectural process focusing on the possibilities and needs of the architect to use a specific set of tools that allow to achieve a conceptual solution. Nowadays the architect has a wide range of new digital technologies to conceptualize and build projects. This has allowed to characterize the architectural processes as traditional or digital. Focused on this connection the work presented here is aimed to make a characterization of the two processes by analyzing the process of Mark Burry for the Sagrada Família church in Barcelona, Spain. Through the description of this case of study it is possible to understand the role of digital technologies in various stages of the project. As well as promoting its use in practical aspects of the course Final Project in Architecture (PFA). Based on the defined goals and methodology applied, this paper is divided into three phases: (1) characterization of traditional processes and digital processes, based on a brief historical overview and examples on the national and international level; (2) analysis the design process from Mark Burry in the Sagrada Família church, as a paradigmatic case of the need for practical application of both processes; and (3) the testing of the processes and their steps in the project of a primary school (Escola Básica 1º Ciclo) at Portela, in Lisbon.

Digital Signal Processing is playing an important role in the digital age. Most of the digital signal processing algorithms need tremendous computations. For example; Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Convolution, Finite Impulse Response (FIR), Infinite Impulse Response (IIR), Filter, etc. All these algorithms are processing with multiplication and addition computation. We can utilize digital signal processor to compute these algorithms. There are many DSP processor, such as T1 TMS 320 series, Motorola, Analog Devices. These processors use the Harvard architecture and embed the hardware multiplier to improve the computation performance. But the whole system performance is not improved by these instruction sequential execution. In order to improve the whole system performance, we plan to use the reconfigurable logic device, such as Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), to design a Co-processor according to different computation algorithms. We will design many different co-processor according to each computation algorithm. The system execute each different computation by its corresponding co-processor. In this research project, we will utilize FPGA to design each different co-processor. Then we can integrate the DSP processor with these co-processors as a reconfigurable digital signal processing architecture. The whole system flexibility and performance can be improved.

This thesis consists of two major parts. The first part is the design of digital signal processor based on TMS320C542 architecture. The second part is the test of digital signal processor based on TMS320C542 architecture. In general, testing processors by way of inserting scan chains will result in hardware overhead and may cause potential performance degradation. In this work, we focus on exploring efficient functional testing methodology for solving above-mentioned problems. In functional testing, the test patterns are applied through the functional input pins and the responses are observed from the functional output pins. Therefore, the more important thing is how to produce a good test program. In this thesis, we will present a method to generate test programs and relevant analysis of the test results.

Η ζήτηση τς αγοράς για ϕθηνές, αξιόπιστες και ϕορητές ηλεκτρονικές συ- σκευές ωθεί τα όρια του σχεδιασμού των ενσωματωμένων συστημάτων σε νέες ανεξερεύνητες περιοχές. Η ϕορητότητα απαιτεί την αϕαίρεση όλων των καλωδίων είτε για μετάδοση δεδομένων είτε για ενέργεια. Για να επιτευχθεί αυτό, η ασύρματη επικοινωνία σε υψηλό ρυθμό μετάδοσης είναι επιθυμητή χωρίς να θυσιαστεί η υψηλή ενεργειακή απο- δοτικότητα που καθιστά την συσκευή αυτόνομη από το ενεργειακό δίκτυο για μεγάλες χρονικές περιόδους. Η συνεχής αύξηση στις προδιαγραϕές των σύγχρονων ενσωματομένων συστημάτων έχει οδηγήσει στην χρήση καινοτόμων ιδεών, προσεγγίσεων και τεχνολογιών. Μια νέα τεχνολογία που υπόσχεται υψηλή ολοκλήρωση και υψηλό ρυθμό μετάδοσης δεδομένων στις ασύρματες ζεύξεις είναι η επικοινωνία στα 60 GHz. Μια νέα προσέγγιση σχεδιασμού για ενσωματομένα συστήματα υπόσχεται αποτελεσματική εκμετάλευση του δυναμισμού που μπορεί να παρουσιάζει ένα σύστημα. Τα ασύρματα συστήματα επικοινωνίας λειτουργούν τυπικά σε πολύ δυναμικά περιβάλλοντα. Τα Σενάρια συστήματος έχουν μεγάλες δυνατότητες για να βελτιώσουν την αποτελεσματικότητα της υλοποίησης των ψηϕιακών βάσεων τέτοιων συστημάτων. Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εξερευνούμε της δυνατότητες της αρχιτεκτονικής του FFT που βρίσκεται στην πλευρά του δέκτη ενός πομποδέκτη στα 60 GHz. Ο FFT είναι μέρος της εξίσωσης στο πεδίο της συχνότητας που χρησιμοποιείται για να μειώσει της επιδράσεις του ϕαινομένου multipath. Χρησιμοποιώντας Σενάρια Συστήματος προσπαθούμε να καταλήξουμε με μια πιο προσαρμοστική και συνεπώς πιο ενεργειακά αποδοτική υλοποίηση του μετασχηματισμού. Η εϕαρμογή των Σεναρίων Συστήματος χρησιμοποιώντας δεδομένα ως παράμετρο είναι μια καινοτόμα προσέγγιση και σε αυτή την διπλωματική εργασία ελέγχουμε την επιτευξιμότητα της. Για να επιτύχουμε κάτι τέτοιο πρέπει να μπορούμε να παράγουμε πολλαπλά διαϕορετικά σχέδια κβαντοποίησης του μετασχηματισμού σε αποδεκτά χρονικά διαστήματα. Οι παρούσες μέθοδοι κβαντοποίησης δεν μπορούν ακόμα να παρέχουν τέτοια δυνατότητα. Έτσι βασιζόμενοι στην επέκταση μια υπάρχουσας μεθοδολογίας προτείνουμε μια ολοκληρωμένη μεθοδολογία που μπορεί να παράγει σχέδια κβαντοποίησης μεγάλων στοιχείων υλικού όπως ο FFT.

The evolution of wireless communication protocols drives the quest of power-efficient and flexible computing for embedded digital signal processors (DSPs), but the popular DSP architectures, very-long-instruction-word (VLIW) and application-specific instruction set processor (ASIP), serve as opposite extreme cases in regard to power-efficiency and flexibility. To this end, we present DeAr: Dual-thread Architecture DSP, which manipulates a multi-banked register file that enables simultaneous multi-threading (SMT), as well as a transport-triggered bus that exploits the data forwarding mechanism in its compact datapath. In addition, a novel scheduling algorithm that leverages the compact hardware to achieve both high throughput and flexible computation is presented. To go beyond a single core DSP, we also propose a system integration framework and a compilation tool for DeAr based on Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA), which is a promising standard for the multi-core architecture promoted by several leading semiconductor companies, AMD, ARM, MediaTek, etc. In the experiment of the comparison with VLIW and ASIP respectively, DeAr either saves 20.3%–13.1% and 31.8%–2.2% of power, 36.1%–31.5% and 28.2%–5.7% of area in the benchmark suite aiming at wireless communication, or saves 20.3%–13.1% and 31.8%–2.2% of power, 36.1%–31.5% and 28.2%–5.7% of area in the benchmark suite of general digital signal processing kernels.

In this thesis, a digital signal processor that is designed for communication appli-cations with a programmable correlator array architecture is introduced. The pro-grammable correlator can be easily configured as a chip match filter, code group detector, scrambling code detector, and RAKE receiver. It also has low power consideration. The architecture and instruction set of the proposed DSP (CDSP) makes it has good performance at Viterbi algorithm and complex arithmetic operations for some wireless communication standards such as GSM and IS-95. According to the performance evaulation results, the suggested DSP core outperforms other DSPs in terms of several operations normally used in wireless communication. The chip was implemented in a hybrid design method where the critical path was full-custom designed and the other parts are cell-based using a 0.35um 1P4M cell-library. We believe that the suggested correlator array architecture and digital signal processor are useful for future 3G mobile terminal design.
