A historical survey of computer music ij presented. As the title suggests, this survey is written for the composer, in oider t.ofacilitate his access to the tools currentry offered by technology. Approaches both to computer composition and to sound synthesis tech':1ique!f are considered.These are discussed in terms of their music-theoretical implications, modes of man-machine communication, and...

A Software Defined Radio (SDR) is defined as a radio in which the receive digitization is performed at some stage downstream from the antenna, typically after wideband filtering, low noise amplification, and down conversion to a lower frequency in subsequent stages with a reverse process occurring for the transmit digitization. In an SDR, Digital Signal Processing in flexible and reconfigurable...

In this paper, an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) base band processor for a passive tag is presented. It proposes a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag digital base band architecture which is compatible with the EPC C C2/ISO18000-6B protocol. Several design approaches such as clock gating technique, clock strobe design and clock management are used. In order to reduce the area Decimal Matrix C...

Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) systems generate fine frequency resolution signals over a broad spectrum that are used in a wide variety of applications such as multi-mode RF, communications, measurements and test. A high performance DDS band-pass Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) architecture and implementation is presented that delivers high spectral purity over a narrow-band response. The low...

A straightforward synthesis from functional languages to digital circuits transforms variables to wires. The types of these variables determine the bit-width of the wires. Assigning a bit-width to polymorphic and function-type variables within this direct synthesis scheme is impossible. Using a term rewrite system, polymorphic and function-type binders can be completely eliminated from a circui...

Dual spacization of publishing means emergence of digital publishing in online and offline virtual environments along with analogue publishing. Analogue publishing is a kind of publishing that is produced in the form of physical printed writings as they appear in a single paper, single or many pages newspapers and magazines and books, writings on leaves and pieces of trees, natural skin and lea...
