Deleveraging domesticity : incremental design forays on middle income housing
Housing today has little do with architecture. Design is a currency of services, while housing today is intensively packaged as a consumer good. It is packaged with land as speculative real-estate, and bundled abstractly into mortgage-backed securities for trade in global investment markets. Both …

Incremental Design Migration Support in Industrial Control Systems Development
… of such ICSes. Traditional approaches in ICS design involve switching from a model or modeling environment directly to a real-world implementation. Errors have the potential to go unnoticed in the modeling environment and have a tendency to affect real control systems. Current models for error …

Incremental Design Techniques with Non-Preemptive Refinement for Million-Gate FPGAs
… presents a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) design methodology that can be used to shorten the FPGA design-and-debug cycle, especially as gate counts increase to many millions. Core-based incremental placement algorithms, in conjunction with fast interactive routing, are investigated to …

Timing-Aware Automatic Floorplanning of Partially Reconfigurable Designs for Accelerating FPGA Productivity
… speed has not kept pace with the increase in design size and FPGA density. It is difficult to parallelize place-and-route algorithms without sacrificing determinism or quality of results. We address the implementation problem using a divide-and-conquer approach. The PATIS automatic …

Partitioning of large HDL ASIC designs into multiple FPGA devices for prototyping and verification
… ASIC (Application specific Integrated Circuit) designs grow continuously bigger and bigger. This causes dramatic increase in the simulation run time. It is very hard to simulate these designs because the simulation time has risen from hours to days and weeks. Hardware Embedded Simulation (HES) …

Automated Level Selection for Design-Aimed Simulation
<p>Simulation-based design provides a comprehensive environment to evaluate products without building physical prototypes. If the simulation environment is able to select appropriate model levels automatically for different stages of the incremental design, the simulation can be performed without …

Module Shaping and Exploration in Rapid FPGA Design and Assembly Workflows
The modular design methodology has been widely adopted to harness the complexity of large FPGA-based systems. As a result, a number of commercial and academic tool flows emerged to support modular design including Hierarchical Design Flow and Partial Reconfiguration Flow, OpenPR, HMFlow, PARBIT, …

Functionally Encapsulated Modules: A Computer Aided Software Engineering Methodology for the Implementation of Computer Integrated Manufacturing
The thesis describes a method for the rapid, incremental design and implementation of manufacturing systems utilising a combined object-oriented and structured Petri net formalism. The background to the problems facing manufacturing organisations wishing to implement computers into manufacturing …

A framework to guide the incremental implementation of a computer- integrated manufacturing system
This thesis develops a framework to guide the incremental design and implementation of a Computer-Integrated Manufacturing System (CIMS). The framework is premised upon the facts that: (1) CIMS design is accomplished through a series of evaluation decisions sequenced through time and (2) evaluation …

Integrative Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization Techniques for Efficient Data-Intensive Applications in Edge Computing Infrastructures
… and other supporting systems. Their conception, design, and deployment require a thorough analysis of the scenario to be successful. Modeling and simulation-based systems engineering (MSBSE) applies advanced Modeling and Simulation (M&S) techniques to ensure a logical, robust, and reliable …

Development of computational approaches for whole-genome sequence variation and deep phenotyping
… I implement a variant analysis platform that incrementally merges samples, annotates variants and enables the analysis of 10,000 individuals in minutes. An incremental design for variant merging and annotation has not been described before. Using the framework, I develop a quality score to …
