It is recognized that formal design and verification methods are an
important requirement for the attainment of high quality system
designs. The field has evolved enormously during the last few
years, resulting in the fact that formal design and verification
methods are nowadays supported by several tools, both commercial
and academic. If different tools and users are to generate and read
the same language then it is necessary that the same semantics is
assigned by them to all constructs and elements of the language.
The current IEEE standard VHDL language reference manual (LRM)
tries to define VHDL as well as possible in a descriptive way,
explaining the semantics in English. But rigor and clarity are very
hard to maintain in a semantics defined in this way, and that has
already given rise to many misconceptions and contradictory
interpretations. Formal Semantics for VHDL is the first book that
puts forward a cohesive set of semantics for the VHDL language. The
chapters describe several semantics each based on a different
underlying formalism: two of them use Petri nets as target
language, and two of them higher order logic. Two use functional
concepts, and finally another uses the concept of evolving
algebras. Formal Semantics for VHDL is essential reading for
researchers in formal methods and can be used as a text for an
advanced course on the subject.

A Guide to the identification and description for 205 spore taxa
and forms the basis for a refined biostratigraphy and
palaeogeography Devonian spores from 16 subsurface successions in
Saudi Arabia and North Africa are systematically documented to
characterize assemblages for the northern margin of western
Gondwana. The taxonomic study provides the identification and
description for 205 spore taxa and forms the basis for a refined
biostratigraphy and palaeogeography. Most species are illustrated
by multiple specimens to document morphological variation and the
effects of taphonomy. Numerous species have considerable
morphological variability and require examination of larger
populations to become fully understood. These spores show
intergrading morphological variation and were grouped into
morphons. Although a majority of spore species were previously
described, many others are new and endemic to north-western
Gondwana.
