Reconfigurable Field Programmable Gate Arrays for Mission-Critical Applications

Springer, 2010

Embedded systems applications that are either mission or safety-critical usually entail low- to mid- production volumes, require the rapid development of specific tasks, which are typically computing intensive, and are cost bounded. The adoption of re-configurable FPGAs in such application domains is constrained to the availability of...

HTML5 Hacks

O'Reilly, 2012

HTML5 is the new catchall term for “the Web.” Like Ajax and Web 2.0 before, the term can cause confusion when used in different contexts. HTML5 is technically the fifth revision of the HTML markup language, but you will find the term being used to describe an umbrella of next-generation web technology...

SPSS for Starters, Part 2 (SpringerBriefs in Statistics)

Springer, 2012

The small book ‘‘SPSS for Starters’’ issued in 2010 presented 20 chapters of cookbook like step by step data-analyses of clinical research, and was written to help clinical investigators and medical students analyze their data without the help of a statistician. The book served its purpose well enough, since...

World Scientific Publishing, 2011

As computing and networking technologies are gradually integrated with every aspect of human lives and activities, computer and network security has become a critical issue. The Handbook of Security and Networks presents a collection of recent advances in computer networking and security areas. These include applied...

Adaptive Control Approach for Software Quality Improvement (Series on Software Engineering & Knowledge Engineering)

World Scientific Publishing, 2011

The expansion of our reliance on software in many aspects of modern society has coincided with a number of incidents in aeronautics, astronautics, transportation, medical devices, energy generation, banking and finance. Failures caused by software have introduced more than just inconvenience, but significant property damage,...

Information Visualization, Third Edition: Perception for Design (Interactive Technologies)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2012

Information Visualization: Perception for Design is a comprehensive guide to what the science of human perception tells us about how we should display information.

The human brain is a super-computer for finding patterns in information. Our understanding of visual data and visual information is greatly enhanced or impeded by...

Computer Vision-Guided Virtual Craniofacial Surgery: A Graph-Theoretic and Statistical Perspective

Springer, 2011

The monograph deals with an important application of computer vision and pattern recognition in the area of medical science, more specifically reconstructive craniofacial surgery. Craniofacial fractures are encountered very frequently in today’s fastpaced society; the major causes being gunshot wounds, motor vehicle...

High Performance Computing: Programming and Applications (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Science)

CRC Press, 2010

The future of high-performance computing (HPC) lies with large distributed parallel systems with three levels of parallelism, thousands of nodes containing MIMD* groups of SIMD* processors. For the past 50 years, the clock cycle of single processors has decreased steadily and the cost of each processor has decreased. Most applications would...

Carbon Alloys: Novel Concepts to Develop Carbon Science and Technology

Elsevier Limited, 2003

In recent years the Japanese have funded a comprehensive study of carbon materials which incorporate other elements including boron, nitrogen and fluorine, hence the title of the project "Carbon Alloys".

Coined in 1992, the phrase "Carbon Alloys" can be applied to those materials mainly composed of carbon...

Pharmacoethics: A Problem-Based Approach (Plant Engineering Series)

CRC Press, 2003

About 20 years ago, the University of New Mexico School of Medicine (SOM) established a student-centered problem-based learning (PBL) curriculum emphasizing ambulatory care practice competencies. It was designed for small groups of students working together and ran parallel with their more traditional curriculum. The SOM...

Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry 35

Springer, 2002

The Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry series continues with its thirty-fifth volume but with the regrettable retirement of its founding editor, Professor J.O’M. Bockris (see Appreciation on p. v).

As in most previous volumes, a series of five chapters is presented covering both the electrolyte solution and...

SOA Patterns

Manning Publications, 2012

Building distributed yet integrated systems remains a difficult problem to solve. First, it requires a solid understanding of the individual components to be connected. Next, we have to connect these components in a way that balances loose coupling against system-wide requirements, such as latency and security. Last...
