The smt-lib standard: Version 2.0

Proceedings of the 8th …, 2010

The SMT-LIB initiative is an international effort, supported by several research groups worldwide, with the two-fold goal of producing an extensive on-line library of benchmarks and promoting the adoption of common languages and interfaces for SMT solvers. This document specifies Version 2.0 of the SMT-LIB Standard. This is a major upgrade of the previous version, Version 1.2, which, in addition to simplifying and extending the languages of that version, includes a new command language for interfacing with SMT solvers.

Ijesrt International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology Some Important Issues in Free and Open Source Software

In 1983 Richard Stallman founded the free software movement. According to the founder this type of software respects user's freedom and social solidarity of development team called community in FOSS terminology. Whereas proprietary softwares take away the user's freedom and keep the users helpless. In free and open source software the concept of sharing the source code is used. Here all the participants are connected through internet. FOSS has grown now in a full fledged software development methodology thruought the world. This methodology cuts down or reduces the cost of software. Also no country of the world wants to waste crores of rupees on softwares which are proprietary as they have an option to divert to this new category of software. But all want to be safe by getting acquainted with various issues related with free and open source software. Therefore the main aim of this article is to highlight the important issues related with free and open source software KEYWORD...

Norwegian Computing Center Norsk Regnesentral (Norwegian Computing Center, NR) is a private, independent, non-profit foundation established in 1952. NR carries out contract research and development projects in the areas of information and communication technology and applied statistical modeling. The clients are a broad range of industrial, commercial and public service organizations in the national as well as the international market. Our scientific and technical capabilities are further developed in co-operation with The Research Council of Norway and key customers. The results of our projects may take the form of reports, software, prototypes, and short courses. A proof of the confidence and appreciation our clients have for us is given by the fact that most of our new contracts are signed with previous customers. Abstract This document is the compendium for the course INF 5780: Open source, open collaboration and innovation at the Department of Informatics, University of Oslo, written for the autumn semester of 2014. This multi-disciplinary compendium presents aspects of commons-based peer production, free and open source software, open licenses, open standards, and how to extract value from these phenomena in open innovation and business models.

Torc: towards an open-source tool flow

We present and describe Torc - (Tools for Open Reconfigurable Computing) - an open-source infrastructure and tool set, provided entirely as C++ source code and available at http://torc.isi.edu. Torc is suitable for custom research applications, for CAD tool development, and for architecture exploration. The Torc infrastructure can (1) read, write, and manipulate generic netlists - currently EDIF, (2) read, write, and manipulate physical netlists - currently XDL, and indirectly NCD, (3) provide exhaustive wiring and logic information for commercial devices, and (4) read, write, and manipulate bitstream packets (but not configuration frame contents). Torc furthermore provides routing and unpacking tools for full or partial designs, soon to be augmented with BLIF support, and with packing and placing tools. The architectural data for Xilinx devices is generated from non-proprietary XDLRC files, and currently supports 140 devices in 11 families: Virtex, Virtex-E, Virtex-II, Virtex-II Pr...
