Digital signal processing plays a central role in the development of modern communication and information processing systems. The theory and application of signal processing is concerned with the identification, modelling and utilisation of patterns and structures in a signal process. The observation signals are often distorted, incomplete...
Cut costs and control inventory an adaptive business network
This book introduces the adaptive business network, a new method of business interaction that offers the ability to respond swiftly to changing market conditions, increase revenue growth, and lower overall cost. In Adapt or Die, the experts from...
The aim of this book is to summarize the current most effective methods for modeling, simulating, and optimizing metal forming processes, and to present the main features of new, innovative methods currently being developed which will no doubt be the industrial tools of tomorrow. It discusses damage (or defect) prediction in virtual metal...
The field of soft computing is emerging from the cutting edge research over the last ten years devoted to fuzzy engineering and genetic algorithms. The subject is being called soft computing and computational intelligence. With acceptance of the research fundamentals in these important areas, the field is expanding into direct applications through...
Foundations of Fuzzy Control: A Practical Approach, 2nd Edition has been significantly revised and updated, with two new chapters on Gain Scheduling Control and Neurofuzzy Modelling. It focuses on the PID (Proportional, Integral, Derivative) type controller which is the most widely used in industry and systematically analyses several...
Increasing performance demands in integrated circuits, together with limited energy budgets, force IC designers to find new ways of saving power. One innovative way is the presented adaptive voltage scaling scheme, which tunes the supply voltage according to the present process, voltage and temperature variations as well as aging. The voltage...
This book comprises select proceedings of the National Conference on Control, Signal Processing, Energy and Power Systems (CSPES 2018). The book covers topics on both theoretical control systems and their applications across engineering domains such as automatic control, robotics, and adaptive controller design. It discusses several signal...
A toolkit for giving our historic built environment a second life
Conservation of our existing structures has obvious economic and social value. Moreover, historic structures provide an excellent laboratory for studying aspects of structural engineering, materials science, forensic engineering, and building design. Structural...
Research in computational intelligence is directed toward building thinking machines and improving our understanding of intelligence. As evident, the ultimate achievement in this field would be to mimic or exceed human cognitive capabilities including reasoning, recognition, creativity, emotions, understanding, learning and so on. In this book,...
This second edition of Evolving Connectionist Systems presents generic computational models and techniques that can be used for the development of evolving, adaptive modelling systems, as well as new trends including computational neuro-genetic modelling and quantum information processing related to evolving systems. New applications, such as...
Business intelligence is made possible by the existence of Information Technology. Business intelligence
aims to support better business decision-making. To use agile methodologies and to develop Information
Technology faster and cheaper is to put an icing on the cake. I doubt that Hans Peter Luhn was aware
of the consequences of...
This compilation presents minireviews derived from work presented at the Aegean
Conference: “First Crossroads between Innate and Adaptive Immunity,”
which occurred October 9–14, 2005 at the Hilton Conference Center on the island
of Rhodes, Greece. The conference included sessions dedicated to host recognition
of...
