Spin-stand Microscopy of Hard Disk Data

Spin-stand Microscopy of Hard Disk Data by Isaak D. Mayergoyz, Chun Tse Elsevier Science | 2007 | ISBN: 0080444652 | 239 pages | PDF | 15 MB

This book provides an in-depth exposition of spin-stand microscopy of hard disk data which is a new technique recently developed and extensively tested by the authors of the book. Spin-stand microscopy is the first magnetic imaging technique where imaging is performed ex-situ on a rotating disk mounted on a spin-stand. This technique is one of the fastest scanning-based microscopy techniques. It is non-invasive and has nano-scale resolution. For these reasons, it provides unique capabilities for the visualization of magnetization patterns recorded on hard disks. This book is self-contained and it covers in sufficient details the basic facts of magnetic data storage technology, the principles and theory of spin-stand microscopy, its experimental implementations, as well as its applications in hard disk diagnostics, imaging of overwritten patterns, computer forensics of hard disk files, and data-dependent magnetic thermal relaxations of recorded magnetization patterns.

This book will be a valuable reference for the magnetic data storage community, magnetic microscopy professionals as well as engineers and scientists involved in computer data forensics, commercial data recovery, and the design of archival data storage systems. Key features: - conceptual novelty of the technique and the demonstration of its wide scope of applications - detailed exposition of the principles of spin-stand magnetic microscopy - comprehensive discussions of novel image reconstruction techniques - demonstration of high resolution spin-stand images of hard disk data - presentation of sector-by-sector ex-situ forensics of hard disk files - extensive studies of data-dependent thermal relaxations of magnetization patterns recorded on hard disks Key features: - conceptual novelty of the technique and the demonstration of its wide scope of applications - detailed exposition of the principles of spin-stand magnetic microscopy - comprehensive discussions of novel image reconstruction techniques - demonstration of high resolution spin-stand images of hard disk data - presentation of sector-by-sector ex-situ forensics of hard disk files - extensive studies of data-dependent thermal relaxations of magnetization patterns recorded on hard disks

VLSI Circuit Design Methodology Demystified: A Conceptual Taxonomy - Liming Xiu

VLSI Circuit Design Methodology Demystified: A Conceptual Taxonomy
                                                                                                                  - Liming Xiu

An accessible, intuitive resource to common—and not-so-common—questions and answers about very large-scale integrated (VLSI) circuit design
The widespread acceptance of sophisticated electronic devices and the growing challenges of a more technically oriented future have created an unprecedented demand for very large-scale integrated (VLSI) circuits. Meeting this crucial need requires advances in material science and processing equipment along with the ability to use the computer more effectively to aid in the design process. More importantly, it also requires a significant number of qualified professionals to work in this exciting field. Unfortunately, due to its complexity and dynamic nature, the topic of VLSI circuit design methodology is not widely taught in universities nor is it well understood by many engineers. Now, VLSI Circuit Design Methodology Demystified takes the guesswork out of this important topic by presenting readers with a succinct and accessible treatment of how a complex chip is developed, from concept to silicon.
Uniquely organized in a question-and-answer format, the book builds on information in the order of chip development: market research/product definition, system design, logic design, logic verification, logic synthesis, Place & Route, and physical verification. A wealth of important questions are addressed, including:

• What are the requirements of a successful chip design?
• What are the major approaches of today's VLSI circuit design practices?
• What are the major process steps in building MOSFET transistors?
• What is the role of functional verification in the IC design process?
• What are the two major aspects of ASIC design flow?
• What is Hardware Description Language (HDL)?
• What is the most commonly used model in VLSI circuit testing?
• What are the qualities of a good IC implementation designer?

The answers to these questions and many more provide the framework for understanding the key concepts involved in the VLSI chip development process, giving readers a solid foundation for further advancement in the field. Written by an industry expert, the book uses up-to-date, real-world design examples to demonstrate to readers how to become better engineers through a practical approach of diagnosing and attacking problems. Ideal as a resource for electrical engineers specializing in integrated circuit design in the semiconductor industry, this book is also suitable as a supplementary text for students enrolled in advanced VLSI courses.

Adaptive Filtering Primer with MATLAB - Poularikas and Ramadan

Adaptive Filtering Primer with MATLAB - Poularikas and Ramadan

Because of the wide use of adaptive filtering in digital signal processing and, because most of the modern electronic devices include some type of an adaptive filter, a text that brings forth the fundamentals of this field was necessary. The material and the principles presented in this book are easily accessible to engineers, scientists, and students who would like to learn the fundamentals of this field and have a background at the bachelor level.

Adaptive Filtering Primer with MATLAB® clearly explains the fundamentals of adaptive filtering supported by numerous examples and computer simulations. The authors introduce discrete-time signal processing, random variables and stochastic processes, the Wiener filter, properties of the error surface, the steepest descent method, and the least mean square (LMS) algorithm. They also supply many MATLAB® functions and m-files along with computer experiments to illustrate how to apply the concepts to real-world problems. The book includes problems along with hints, suggestions, and solutions for solving them. An appendix on matrix computations completes the self-contained coverage.

With applications across a wide range of areas, including radar, communications, control, medical instrumentation, and seismology, Adaptive Filtering Primer with MATLAB® is an ideal companion for quick reference and a perfect, concise introduction to the field. 

The book covered adaptive filtering at a moderate level of difficulty. The use of MATLAB allowed for a good understanding of how to implement this sort of processing.

CEHv6 Module 10 Sniffers

CEHv6 Module 10 Sniffers

 In common industry usage, a sniffer (with lower case "s") is a program that monitors and analyzes network traffic, detecting bottlenecks and problems. Using this information, a network manager can keep traffic flowing efficiently.
A sniffer can also be used legitimately or illegitimately to capture data being transmitted on a network. A network router reads every packet of data passed to it, determining whether it is intended for a destination within the router's own network or whether it should be passed further along the Internet. A router with a sniffer, however, may be able to read the data in the packet as well as the source and destination addresses. Sniffers are often used on academic networks to prevent traffic bottlenecks caused by file-sharing applications.
The term "sniffer" is occasionally used for a program that analyzes data other than network traffic. For example, a database could be analyzed for certain kinds of duplication

Sniffer (with a capital "S") is a trademark owned by NetScout. The generic term may have originated from Sniffer, which is said to be the first packet capture and decode software that was offered for the purpose of network analysis and troubleshooting.
