IEEE Std 610.12-1990, IEEE Standard Glossary of Software Engineering Terminology, identifies terms currently in use in the field of Software Engineering. Standard definitions for those terms are established.

Currently, IEEE 802.11 is the de facto standard for WLANs [1]. It specifies both the medium access control and the physical layers for WLANs. The scope of IEEE 802.11 working groups (WGs) is to propose and develop MAC and PHY layer specifications for WLAN to handle mobile and portable stations. In this standard, the MAC layer operates on top of one of several possible physical layers. Medium ac...

With recent advances in wireless networking, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) became practically feasible. Body Area Networks are defined by the IEEE 802.15.6 standard. However, IEEE 802.15.4 MAC can also be used for WBANs as it is cheap and simple. This paper presents a study about the standards IEEE 802.15.4 and IEEE 802.15.6. In this paper, both IEEE 802.15.4 and IEEE 802.15.6 are explain...

This research examines an admissible search algorithm-dependent A-star strategy and takes into account redundancy cost/benefit analysis under normal operating conditions. The goal is to allocate a phasor measurement unit (PMU) for maximal observability of the interconnected power network. To determine fewest number PMU required make connected network totally observable using analysis, approach ...

SOC test methodology in ultra deep submicron (UDSM) technology with reasonable test time and cost has begun to satisfy high quality and reliability of the product. A novel hierarchical test architecture using IEEE standard 1149.1, 1149.7 and 1500 compliant facilities is proposed for the purpose of supporting flexible test environment to ensure SOC test methodology. Each embedded core in a syste...

IEEE 802.15.4 is a Low Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (LR-WPAN) standard combined with ZigBee, which is going to enable new applications in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and Internet of Things (IoT) domain. In recent years, it has become a popular standard for WSNs. Wireless communication among sensor motes, enabled by IEEE 802.15.4 standard, is extensively replacing the existing wired ...

VHDL 1076.1 denotes an effort to enhance the IEEE VHDL 1076 standard with analog and mixed-signal capabilities. At the time of this writing (November 1995), the development of the extensions is nearing completion. An IEEE ballot to adopt the extensions as a new IEEE standard should happen in Q1 97. This tutorial provides an overview of the proposed extensions through a number of simple, but cha...

This document briefly describes the upcoming standard IEEE 1500 [4], titled "Standard Testability method for Embedded Core-based Integrated Circuits". IEEE P1500 defines a mechanism for the test of digital aspects of core designs within a System-onChip (SoC). This mechanism is a scaleable standard architecture for enabling test reuse and integration for embedded cores and associated circuitry.

The IEEE 802.14 Working Group is charged with defining a standard for the Cable TV environment, the eighth IEEE 802 standard to address what is effectively the same problem. This paper presents a set of criteria, derived from the performance of typical packet/cell switch, for the ideal MAC. It is suggested that the plethora of standards is because the first, IEEE 802.3, did not satisfy the idea...
