生而运动

在看到Motorola MOTOACTV的第一眼，咱们就可以猜到各位兄弟的惯性思维——这玩意儿该不会是Moto出的iPod之类的播放器吧？这年月，姓i的一出，扛着大旗，备大作坊都跟在他们后面，票子都被姓i的赚了，自己还要贴上脸去跟风，看来改姓G的Moto也不例外。可是，各位兄弟这次的如意算盘打错了。这玩意儿，无论是单独使用，还是与Moto手机配套，MOTOACTV都厉害着呢，不信咱们先戴上Mar0ACTV跑两步试试……     

The Motorola MC68020

This new 32-bit microprocessor provides high performance, instruction set extensibility, and compatibility with existing M68000 family software.     

Technology transfer at Motorola

While developing a formal software-review process, a working group at Motorola devised a technology-transfer model that is built on process packages, each one targeted to a different user group. Their model allows for tailoring, makes training and consulting widely available, and relies on champions. The approach helps development organizations focus on the technology they really need, devise solutions, and transfer those solutions to development teams. We report on experiences using this approach in the last five years (1989-94) and the lessons learnt     

Software reuse at Motorola

High initial costs and a slow return on investment can make software reuse a tough sell. The author chronicles the ups and downs of implementing software reuse in a corporation that, despite its bottom-up, grass-roots culture, enlisted top management's intervention to proceed. Based on experience, she recommends that any group trying to implement reuse should first get support from top management and provide reuse training for engineers; second, provide incentives to support the program until reuse becomes part of the culture; and third, provide tools to help engineers     

Where Motorola goes next

Mario Di Prizio, director of engineering and product development for Motorola’s Worldwide Smartcard Solutions Division, outlines Motorola’s strategy in an interview with Card Technology Today editor David Jones.     

Motorola,Ericsson and Nokia

Three worldwide influential mobile data players will collaborate on developing an open platform for secure mobile telephone transactions.     

Formal Verification Successes at Motorola

Formal tools are either too labor intensive or are completely impractical for industrial-size problems. This paper describes two formal verification tools used within Motorola, Versys2 and CBV, that challenge this assertion. The two tools are being used in current design verification flows and have shown that it is possible to seamlessly integrate formal tools into existing design flows.     

Xenix and the Motorola 68000 family

The main features of the Xenix time-sharing system are discussed, paying particular attention to those aspects of the operating system which relate most closely to the hardware on which the system is running. In particular the architecture of the CPU, the memory management hardware, and the disc system are discussed.     

Motorola对讲机置频器的改造

Motorola调车专用对讲机置频器接口的设计缺陷,造成多次输写频率,通过改造,置频器供电方式由9V电池改为了通过USB接口线直接由电脑主机供电.     

How software process improvement helped Motorola

Many organizations are using or considering the Capability Maturity Model as a vehicle for software process improvement. But does the CMM provide real benefits? The authors offer metrics and data that show the results of Motorola's CMM usage     

Built-In Self-Test Trends in Motorola Microprocessors

The first built-in self-test feature in a Motorola sidered a ?wart? until a RAM test application recast it as a ? feature.? Though the BIST approach?an idea conceived as a way to reduce production costs for the MC6805 family?did not meet its major design objective, the experience provided impetus for the development of BIST techniques for the MC6804P2, which met most of the objectives intended for the MC6805P2. The Motorola microprocessor family has come to incorporate a growing number of testability features; current devices typically employ a combination of BIST and other techniques. If present trends continue, transistor counts for microprocessor-related parts should approach 10 million within 10 years. The authors argue that structured design techniques offer the most promising prospects for solving the design and test problems resulting from this increase in complexity.
