This study has introduced the Art in a new vision to increase the understanding of Saudi Art at the International level. The focus was on architecture patterns (in Al_Haram Al_Madini) and literature (poems, speeches). It is achieved through introducing the Art through the eyes of symmetry as new concept embedded in the art. The aims of the study are: 1. to explore the characteristics of Saudi A...

The synthesis of the three-dimensional morphology of a building is one of the most important tasks in architecture. Space planning and morphology are of the most interesting and complex of architectural design problems. Architectural design is guided by the constraints on the spatial composition and the morphology of the final building. During the conceptual phase problems are characterised by ...

Software architectural design is essential for complex distributed applications. Architectural specifications need to define the key aspects of the application, including its intended functions, interfaces, interoperability requirements, distributability, scalability, extensibility, target platforms and networks, and required middleware services. In this paper, we present an architectural exten...

New architectural innovations include more powerful, higher capacity configurable logic blocks (CLB), new Active Interconnect technology, higher bandwidth SelectI/O input/output (I/O) interfaces, a larger and more flexible allocation of distributed and block RAM, and enhanced arithmetic and embedded 18-bit multiplier capability. Together, these architectural features provide significant improve...

Why does a system exhibit the architecture that it does? What influences affected the architectural decisions made by its designer(s)? We hypothesize that these influences flow from the system’s requirements, the organization’s culture and goals, and the designers’ experience and background. We posit that the influences are at least partially enumerable, as are the architectural decisions that ...

This paper surveys the most promising low-power and energy-efficient asynchronous design techniques that can lead to substantial advantages over synchronous counterparts. Our discussions cover macro-architectural, micro-architectural, and circuit-level differences between asynchronous and synchronous implementations in a wide range of designs, applications, and domains including microprocessors...
