Building codes exist for a very simple reason; to ensure the building in question remains upright, structurally sound, and keeps its occupants protected from the elements. They exist to provide ...

Pictured: Example of computational fire modeling in a large industrial manufacturing facility. The model shows the fire location, and outputs information such as heat release rate and visibility, ...

New technologies, innovations, and tools are opening doors for building teams interested in better and yet less-expensive performing arts facilities. A look at design trends for “budget-wise” ...

Many countries, including the United States, use forms of performance-based regulation to promote safety and reduce risk in high-hazard industries. The term “performance-based” is often used to refer ...

Automation aims to standardize industrial operations and bring overall efficiency to today’s production lines. Such gains, however, may come with considerable effort, as engineering teams must ...

Just to get the ball rolling, let’s start by reminding ourselves that system-on-chip (SoC) devices are composed of functional units called intellectual property (IP) blocks or cores. A modern SoC can ...
