Academic Paper from the year 2015 in the subject Film Science, grade: 4.0/4.0, University of Calicut, course: BA English Language and Literature, language: English, abstract: The emergence of a vibrant and creative film industry in Iran in the wake of the Islamic Revolution of 1979 is one of the most singular developments in the international film scenario in recent years. Carving out a niche for themselves, movies from Iran have widely been watched and discussed. Neorealism, a cinematic movement which brought about sweeping changes in world movie history is observed to have had a strong influence on the post-revolutionary Iranian cinema. This study attempts to outline the inter linking features of Italian and Iranian neorealisms by understanding the peculiar aspects of the movements and by analyzing Abbas Kiarostami¿s ¿Where Is My Friend¿s House¿ for the neorealist elements.

Globally, more than 368 cubic kilometers of wastewater is collected annually. Only 160 cubic kilometers is treated before disposal in the natural environment, and 7.1 cubic kilometers is reused. Until 2015, the world's capacity for reusing treated wastewater will reach 20 cubic kilometers per year. Due to the unwillingness of the consumers and important needs related to certain activities, water resulting from treatment plants is generally used by industries and for agriculture and landscaping. In developing and developed countries, rapid urbanization and the consequent growing demand for potable, and industrial water is necessitating costly, large-scale projects. The shortage of fresh water constitutes a severe problem in the Mediterranean Region and particularly in the arid and semi-arid areas to the South and in the Middle East, and is giving rise to serious parallel problems of effluents. These problems are treated with more or less success depending on the ability to develop effective, rational, and affordable sewage treatment strategies.

Image mosaic relies on image matching and registration. The good image mosaic depends on good acquiring the best match features between images or Sift-points. Images of solar planets suffer from lack of information with low contrast that may influence on good matching as compared to Earth images. A new algorithm is present in this book for planetary image mosaic which alleviates this challenge. First, a program is build to compensate for some of the geometric distortion (rotation and scale effects). Second, an algorithm is submitting for detecting a match Sift-points between images that depends on the morphological operation. A registration with warpping and blending operations is compute to complete the image mosaic. This procedure is test and execute on images of Earth (Landsat 8 oli images).

Very large scale integration (VLSI) technologies are now maturing with a current emphasis toward submicron structures and sophisticated applications combining digital as well as analog circuits on a single chip. Abundant examples are found on today's advanced systems for telecom- munications, robotics, automotive electronics, image processing, intelli- gent sensors, etc .. Exciting new applications are being unveiled in the field of neural computing where the massive use of analog/digital VLSI technologies will have a significant impact. To match such a fast technological trend towards single chip ana- logi digital VLSI systems, researchers worldwide have long realized the vital need of producing advanced computer aided tools for designing both digital and analog circuits and systems for silicon integration. Ar- chitecture and circuit compilation, device sizing and the layout genera- tion are but a few familiar tasks on the world of digital integrated circuit design which can be efficiently accomplished by matured computer aided tools. In contrast, the art of tools for designing and producing analog or even analogi digital integrated circuits is quite primitive and still lack- ing the industrial penetration and acceptance already achieved by digital counterparts. In fact, analog design is commonly perceived to be one of the most knowledge-intensive design tasks and analog circuits are still designed, largely by hand, by expert intimately familiar with nuances of the target application and integrated circuit fabrication process. The techniques needed to build good analog circuits seem to exist solely as expertise invested in individual designers.

Radio Design in Nanometer Technologies addresses current trends and future directions in radio design for wireless applications. As radio transceivers constitute the major bottleneck in a wireless chipset in terms of power consumption and die size, the radio must be designed in the context of the entire system, end to end. Therefore the book will address wireless systems as well as the DSP parts before it gets into coverage of radio design issues. To that end, the book contains three parts:Part 1: a general part discussing current and future wireless networks, chipset evolution over the past decade and ending with a discussion on radio requirements for software defined radio(SDR).Part 2: will focus on the digital baseband of a wireless chip set, flexible DSP cores for multi-standard wireless platforms and system-on-chip SoC implementation and design flow issues. Part 3: will be devoted to radio design issues starting at the transceiver level and going down to discuss critical issues facing design of future multi band multi standard radios for emerging wireless standards such as UMTS, WiMaX, MIMO and WLAN in a way that is consistent with the prevailing vision of SDR.As such, the book is the first volume that looks at the integrated radio design problem as a "e;piece of a big puzzle"e;, namely the entire chipset or single chip that builds an entire wireless system. This is the only way to successfully design radios to meet the stringent demands of today's increasingly complex wireless systems.

Low-Voltage CMOS Operational Amplifiers: Theory, Design and Implementation discusses both single and two-stage architectures. Opamps with constant-gm input stage are designed and their excellent performance over the rail-to-rail input common mode range is demonstrated. The first set of CMOS constant-gm input stages was introduced by a group from Technische Universiteit, Delft and Universiteit Twente, the Netherlands. These earlier versions of circuits are discussed, along with new circuits developed at the Ohio State University. The design, fabrication (MOSIS Tiny Chips), and characterization of the new circuits are now complete. Basic analog integrated circuit design concepts should be understood in order to fully appreciate the work presented. However, the topics are presented in a logical order and the circuits are explained in great detail, so that Low-Voltage CMOS Operational Amplifiers can be read and enjoyed by those without much experience in analog circuit design. It is an invaluable reference book, and may be used as a text for advanced courses on the subject.

As MOS devices are scaled to meet increasingly demanding circuit specifications, process variations have a greater effect on the reliability of circuit performance. For this reason, statistical techniques are required to design integrated circuits with maximum yield. Statistical Modeling for Computer-Aided Design of MOS VLSI Circuits describes a statistical circuit simulation and optimization environment for VLSI circuit designers. The first step toward accomplishing statistical circuit design and optimization is the development of an accurate CAD tool capable of performing statistical simulation. This tool must be based on a statistical model which comprehends the effect of device and circuit characteristics, such as device size, bias, and circuit layout, which are under the control of the circuit designer on the variability of circuit performance. The distinctive feature of the CAD tool described in this book is its ability to accurately model and simulate the effect in both intra- and inter-die process variability on analog/digital circuits, accounting for the effects of the aforementioned device and circuit characteristics. Statistical Modeling for Computer-Aided Design of MOS VLSI Circuits serves as an excellent reference for those working in the field, and may be used as the text for an advanced course on the subject.
