Logic networks and automata are facets of digital systems. The change of the design of logic networks from skills and art into a scientific discipline was possible by the development of the underlying mathematical theory called the Switching Theory. The fundamentals of this theory come from the attempts towards an algebraic...
People are often concerned with the reliability of products they use and of the
friends and associates with whom they interact daily in a myriad of ways. Although
the term “reliability” may not occur in the description of a given product
or interaction, it is often the attribute that the individual means in expression of...

Intelligent systems can take many forms. Natural-language translation systems,
computer chess games, robotics applications, vision- and speech-recognition
systems, neural networks, and knowledge-based or expert systems are all special
types of intelligent systems. What each of these systems offers to a varying
degree is the...
PProject management has hung on long past the “new management
fad” stage. When the first edition of this book came out in 1999, project
management was riding a rocket of popularity. Nine years later the
discipline continues to add disciples in new fields such as health care
and nonprofit aid organizations. While the...
The main objective of this book is to provide the students with the opportunity to improve their
programming skills using the MATLAB environment to implement algorithms and to teach the use of
MATLAB as a tool in solving problems in engineering. This book includes the coverage of basics of
MATLAB and application of MATLAB software to...
Approaches to building machines that can learn from experience abound - from connectionist learning algorithms and genetic algorithms to statistical mechanics and a learning system based on Piaget's theories of early childhood development. This monograph describes results derived from the mathematically oriented framework of computational...
Chronic heart failure is now finally getting the recognition it deserves as a major public health problem.
