Mr. Sutherland is a distinguished figure in the field of hardware description languages, having founded Sutherland HDL, Inc. His expertise lies in providing specialized training and consulting services related to Verilog, SystemVerilog, UVM, SVA, and PLI/VPI/DPI.
The book offers a candid and often humorous exploration of the author's personal experiences with manic depression, blending his journey with insights into the origins and treatments of mental illness. As an eminent psychologist, he provides a unique perspective that combines personal narrative with professional analysis, making it both relatable and informative for readers interested in mental health.
The so-called Seven Weeks' War of 1866 between Prussia and Italy and Austria was notable not only for its effect on future German history but also because it was the last time the armies of the smaller German states fought as independent contingents. Forces from 30 smaller states were involved, and they were either of some strength or barely able to guard their rulers' palaces. They have largely been ignored in standard histories, and this book attempts to begin to redress that imbalance by presenting for the first time in English detailed information about the organization of the armies of the smaller states. States covered: Anhalt, Baden, Bavaria, Bremen, Brunswick, Frankfurt am Main, Hamburg, Hanover, Electoral Hesse, Grand Ducal Hesse, Landgravial Hesse, Liechtenstein, Limburg, Lippe-Detmold, Lübeck, Luxembourg, The Mecklenburgs, Nassau, Oldenburg, The Reusses, Saxe-Altenburg, Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Saxe-Meiningen, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, Saxony, Schaumburg-Lippe, Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, Schwarzburg-Sondershausen, Waldeck, Württemberg. An introduction places this information in context, and appendices give selected orders of battle and a chronology of the preliminaries and main events of the war in Germany.
Why do doctors, generals, civil servants and others consistently make wrong decisions that cause enormous harm to others? Irrational beliefs and behaviours are virtually universal. In this iconoclastic book Stuart Sutherland analyses causes of irrationality and examines why we are irrational, the different kinds of irrationality, the damage it does us and the possible cures.
The Verilog Programming Language Interface (PU) offers powerful capabilities for hardware designers and software engineers to connect their programs with commercial Verilog simulators. This interface allows for extensive customization of simulators to meet various engineering needs, such as integrating C language models, creating custom graphical tools, managing proprietary file formats, and conducting test coverage analysis. The versatility of the Verilog PU opens up a wide range of applications, making it an essential tool for enhancing simulation workflows.
The evolution of the Verilog Hardware Description Language has significantly influenced the modern electronics industry since its inception in 1984. Despite its stability, user demands for enhancements led to the efforts of the IEEE 1364 Verilog committee, which successfully addressed a comprehensive list of improvements. The Verilog 1364-2001 standard introduces essential features for verification and abstract design, equipping designers to tackle complex challenges like automated verification and system partitioning in electronics design.
