Digital electronic circuits are the engines of cell phones, MPEG players, digital cameras, com puters, data servers, personal digital devices, GPS displays, and many other consumer prod ucts that process and use information in a digital format. This book presents a basic treatment of digital circuits and the fundamental concepts used in their...

This book is intended to be accessible to undergraduate students with two years of typical mathematics experience, most likely meaning calculus with a little linear algebra and differential equations. Thus, specifically, there is no assumption oLa background inabstr&;t algebra or number theory, nor of probability, nor of linear...

Yes, as a matter of fact, is IS rocket science! And because this book is written for the popular Evil Genius format, it means you can learn about this fascinating and growing hobby while having run creating 50 great projects. You will find a detailed list of...

Though the book is primarily theoretical in nature, it attempts to avoid the...

We expect our readers to already understand basic programming concepts, and many...

We believe that learning in computer science and engineering should reflect the current state of the field, as well as introduce the principles that are shaping computing. We also feel that readers in every specialty of computing need to appreciate the organizational paradigms that determine the capabilities, performance, and,...

The development of network technologies and networked services has been tremendous the last decade and is expected to be more intensive in the near future with the technological progress in the field of radio communications, data communication, protocols, software engineering, applications and so on. In this plethora of technologies,...

Art Carpenter thoroughly updates his successful first edition with an extensive collection of new examples and techniques. Addressing the composition and operation of the SAS macro facility and the SAS macro language, Carpenter's Complete Guide to the SAS Macro Language, Second Edition, is filled with ready-to-use macros, macro functions,...

Open Source GIS (Geographic Information Systems) is a growing area with the explosion of Google Maps-based websites and spatially-aware devices and applications. The GIS market is growing rapidly, and as a Python developer you can't afford to be left behind. In today's location-aware world, all commercial Python developers can...

Computer science, like other mathematical fields, cannot live without a tight relationship with reality. However, such a relationship is, frankly, not very common. This is probably why people so enthusiastically welcome a true meeting of theory and practice. In that sense, the coming together of XML and tree automata theory was a...

The typical computational approach to object understanding derives shape information from the 2D outline of the objects. For complex object structures, however, such a planar approach cannot determine object shape; the structural edges have to be encoded in terms of their full 3D spatial configuration. Computer Vision: From Surfaces...
