"This series of books is truly an important part of my library.... They are consistently accurate.... I would recommend them to anyone doing hardware design or support, as well as to any developers who write low-level system code." Paul Tomlinson "Windows Developer's Journal" "Universal Serial Bus System Architecture "provides an in-depth discussion of USB and is based on the 1.0 version of the Universal Serial Bus specification. It focuses on the USB protocol, signaling environment, and electrical specifications, along with the hardware/software interaction required to configure and access USB devices. Although this book does not focus on writing USB device drivers, it does contain useful background information that aids in understanding the USB software environment. Key topics include: differential signaling environment device configuration suspend/resume operations device descriptors device requests (commands) transfer mechanisms USB transaction protocols bus-powered devices self-powered devices host controller designs (UHC and OHC) error detection and handling device class definitions If you design or test hardware or software that involves USB, "Universal Serial Bus System Architecture "is an essential, time-saving tool. The "PC System Architecture Series" is a crisply written and comprehensive set of guides to the most important PC hardware standards. Each title is designed to illustrate the relationship between the software and hardware and explains thoroughly the architecture, features, and operations of systems built using one particular type of chip or hardware specification. MindShare Inc.is one of the leading technical training companies in the computer industry, providing innovative courses for dozens of companies, including Intel, IBM, and Compaq. Don Anderson passes on his wealth of experience in digital electronics and computer design by training engineers, programmers, and technicians for MindShare. 0201461374B04062001

The objective of the Embedded Instrumentation Systems Architecture (EISA) initiative is to develop a comprehensive methodology for large-scale, nonintrusive, flexible data collection for test and evaluation needs. These needs include system-level developmental, operational, and continuous test and evaluation. The architecture can also be useful in monitoring, diagnostics, and health management, as well as protection in control applications. This article explains how EISA offers a metadata-driven methodology for heterogeneous data collection and aggregation in a synchronized and time-correlated fashion. It also describes how EISA supports real-time instrumentation and sensor management as well as virtual (synthetic) instrumentation. Finally, it addresses EISA scalability to System of Systems and/or Family of Systems embedded instrumentation applications.
