Tap, Move, Shake: Turning Your Game Ideas into iPhone & iPad Apps

O'Reilly, 2011

With the first Apple ][ it was very important for me to have a manual that would lead others to success and learning right from the get-go, even if the user had no relevant experience. That’s how we learn. We start entering code others wrote to see how it works and then over time we learn variations.

One of my...

Introduction to Hardware Security and Trust

Springer, 2011

As technology feature size of devices and interconnects shrink at the rate predicted by Moore’s law, gate density and design complexity on single integrated chip (IC) keep increasing in recent decades. The close to nanoscale fabrication process introduces more manufacturing errors. New failure mechanisms that are not covered...

Embedded Computer Vision (Advances in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition)

Springer, 2008

As a graduate student at Ohio State in the mid-1970s, I inherited a unique computer vision laboratory from the doctoral research of previous students. They had designed and built an early frame-grabber to deliver digitized color video from a (very large) electronic video camera on a tripod to a mini-computer (sic) with a...

Microsensors, MEMS and Smart Devices

John Wiley & Sons, 2001

Microsensors and MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) are revolutionising the semiconductor industry. A microsystem or the so-called "system-on-a-chip" combines microelectronic circuitry with microsensors and microactuators. This emergent field has seen the development of applications ranging from the electronic nose and...

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...

Microfluidics for Biotechnology (Microelectromechanical Systems)

Artech House Publishers, 2005

Since the concept of the first DNA biochip, biotechnologies have soared, deeply changing the world of biology. In fact, they have already had direct implications on each of us. Since the very beginning of this science in the 1980s, spectacular advances have been made, such as the analysis of the human DNA genome sequence, while...

Audel HVAC Fundamentals, Heating System Components, Gas and Oil Burners and Automatic Controls

Audel, 2004

The purpose of this series is to provide the layman with an introduction to the fundamentals of installing, servicing, troubleshooting, and repairing the various types of equipment used in residential and light-commercial heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Consequently, it was written not only for the...

Network Forensics: Tracking Hackers through Cyberspace

Prentice Hall, 2012

My great-grandfather was a furniture maker. I am writing this on his table, sitting in his chair. His world was one of craft, “the skilled practice of a practical occupation.”1 He made furniture late in life that was in superficial respects the same as that which he made earlier, but one can see his craft advance. ...

Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard

Crown, 2010

Why is it so hard to make lasting changes in our companies, in our communities, and in our own lives?

The primary obstacle is a conflict that’s built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled...

All-Digital Frequency Synthesizer in Deep-Submicron CMOS

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

Design flow and circuit techniques of contemporary transceivers for multigigahertz mobile radio-frequency (RF) wireless applications are typically quite analog intensive and utilize process technologies that are incompatible with a digital baseband (DBB) and application processor (AP). Nowadays, the DBB and AP designs constantly migrate to...

Nanotechnology Demystified

McGraw-Hill, 2006

Nanotechnology Demystifi ed is for anyone interested in the nanoscale world who wants to learn more about this exciting new area. It can also be used by home-schooled students, tutored students, and those people wanting to change careers. The material is presented in an easy-to-follow way and can best be understood when read from beginning to...

Augmented Reality: An Emerging Technologies Guide to AR

Syngress Publishing, 2012

Augmented reality (AR) is a technology whose time has come. Conceived in rudimentary form as early as the 1960’s, AR is only now becoming truly practical. Recent advances in mobile processing, coupled with an explosion in digital storage capacity, ubiquity of wireless broadband connections, mass adoption of smart phones, and...
