Such a course is usually required as part of an information systems curriculum in
business schools, computer technology programs, and applied computer science
departments. The Association for Information Systems (AIS), the Association...
Modeling is practiced in engineering and all physical sciences. Many specialized texts exist - written at a high level - that cover this subject. However, students and even professionals often experience difficulties in setting up and solving even the simplest of models. This can be attributed to three difficulties: the proper choice of model,...
This new book is carefully designed to teach C language programming as it applies to embedded microcontrollers and to fuel knowledge in the application of the Microchip family of PIC microcontrollers. Coverage begins with a step-by-step exploration of the C language showing readers how to create C language programs to solve problems. PIC...
The book's text and many photographs introduce readers to the renowned teachers and researchers who are still well known in engineering circles.

Tervo sequences the presentation of the major transforms by their complexity: first Fourier,...
Somebody once said that one may prove the correctness of an algorithm, but not of a
program. One of the main goals of this book is to convince the reader that things are
not so bad.
A well-known programmer, C.A.R. Hoare, said that the beauty of a program is
not an additional benefit but a criterion...
