Thereis a need for a low-complexity library that provides some abstraction while exposing low-leveldetails.This paper presents the design philosophy behind an open-source library3 first released in 2008and updated until the present, which complements a textbook4 on microcontrollers adopted bynine universities. This library that provides a minimalist hardware abstraction layer for the 16-bitfamily of Microchip’s microcontrollers that we believe will address the need for a better balancebetween abstraction and exposing students to underlying details

This year, the UAEgovernment through its ICT Fund entity, has granted RIT Dubai 24 scholarships allocatedequally between bachelor and masters programs. The scholarships give students a monthlystipend and pay for their university fees.

There is a rather tired quip that resurfacesperiodically amongst architects: “The only structures number I need to know is the number ofmy engineer.” The statement avows the disdain of computation by a large number of architects.And yet, architecture is steeped in the art of mathematics albeit through patterns, scales, spatialrelationships, and slopes or pitches; and in a very practical nature through dimensioning andcalculating area and volume for the former.

Since the software has a wide range of applications that can beanalyzed it is necessary to master to a certain degree the parameters that need to be set up for theright analysis.
