I know there is lots of question with the same sort of subject, but this question is specific to the IEEE CSDP Certification As I am currently living and working in Australia,I found that the IEEE CSDP is quite hard to see on people's resume. Most people just don't know what you are talking about. I've got some doubts whether is worth ...
I've seen a number of question's closed as "Not programming related" (e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/397854/what-process-accesses-my-hdd) I understand that their's several alternative site (stackoverflow) themed-forums and to attempt keep site question's to a minimum also some may argue that this is too subjective, o well, I go...
I am doing high precision scientific computations. In looking for the best representation of various effects, I keep coming up with reasons to want to get the next higher (or lower) double precision number available. Essentially, what I want to do is add one to the least significant bit in the internal representation of a double. The ...
Hi, I'm continiously impressed with the bitmagic used in chess engines, 3dgames and other highly optimized codebases. I've tried to read about IEEE and the article at topcoder, but I would like a more elaborate material, like a book. Do anybody know such a book, that describes the layout of IEEE, the bit tricks and the math behind them?...
The python frexp and ldexp functions splits floats into mantissa and exponent. Do anybody know if this process exposes the actual float structure, or if it requires python to do expensive logarithmic calls? ...
Does anyone know if there is an IEEE standard for software installation instruction documents? ...
IEEE vhdl language reference manual only defined a limited set of standard packages.And it do not defined the functionalities on the standard types,such as STD_LOGIC.So there are no standard AND2, INV components/operator. It seems that Altera's MAX+Plus II do not support AND2, INV component(if there are,please feel free to correct me),b...
IEEE conference publications in two-column format require authors to manually equalize the lengths of the columns on the last page of the final submission. I have typically done this by inserting a \newpage where necessary -- which usually ends up being somewhere amidst my (manually entered) references. However, I have recently begun us...
According to the IEEE citation style reference, in case we cite urls the access time of the url should be indicated as well. Does anybody know how to indicate this when using BibTeX? Thanks, Zoltan ...
The IEEE has a long list of standards for almost every step within the software engineering process. How many of you have seen a reference to such standards in the documentation you read? I think the idea of combining the suggestions from many veterans is a good thing, but I have the feeling that not many projects ever quote not even on...
Software or real people can technically copy a BSD software, install it and sell it. What are technical and licence advantages and disadvantages compared to taking Linux or other 1003.1 and delivering or selling it? Which license is most flexible for instance when selling or delivering a computer BSD licence seems more flexible than Lin...
I've got some legacy data which is still in use, reading the binary files is not the problem, the number format is. All floating point numbers are saved in MBF format (Single and Double). I've found a topic about that on the MSDN boards but that one only deals with Single values. I'd also would like to stay away from API-Calls as far as ...
I am a software developer in France and I've realized that I am more interested in research and advanced topics more than just programming. So I decided to go back to the university next year for graduate studies and I would like to join ACM, IEEE and IEEE computer society to start preparing from now. However I still have some questions...
Say I have two Python floats a and b, is there an easy way to find out how many representable real numbers are between the two in IEEE-754 representation (or whatever representation the machine used is using)? ...
Hi, I found a topic below for convert MBF to IEEE. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2973913/convert-mbf-single-and-double-to-ieee Anyone can explain what are the function of the code marked below? Dim sign As Byte = mbf(6) And ToByte(&H80) 'What is the reason AND (&H80)? Dim exp As Int16 = mbf(7) - 128S - 1S + 1023S 'Why is 115...
I've been tasked with syncing a time critical process for logging data from a PLC with a PTP (Precision Time Protocol, IEEE 1588) time source. A quick look at the available libraries all turn up nothing but IVI-C and IVI-COM based implementations. Would it be better to roll my own managed library for reading time from a PTP time source...
