This book is now in its fifth edition. Each edition has corresponded to a different phase in the way computer networks were used. When the first edition appeared in 1980, networks were an academic curiosity. When the second edition appeared in 1988, networks were used by universities and large businesses. When the third edition appeared in...
The objective of this book is to provide an introduction to the basic principles in the
analysis and design of communication systems. It is primarily intended for use as a text
for a first course in communications, either at a senior level or at a first-year graduate
level.
Thorough coverage of basic digital communication...
The idea for this book was formed during the doctorate of Bernd Iser. Bernd
Iser was working on efficient and robust bandwidth extension algorithms in
hands-free systems for Harman/Becker Automotive Systems. It turned out
that bandwidth extension of speech signals was a topic of appreciable interest,
where lots of scientific...
The world is becoming increasingly electrified. For the foreseeable future, coal will
continue to be the dominant fuel used for electric power production. The low cost and
abundance of coal is one of the primary reasons for this. Electric power transmission, a
process in the delivery of electricity to consumers, is the bulk...
Highly regarded for its accessible writing and practical case studies, Control Systems Engineering is the most widely adopted textbook for this core course in Mechanical and Electrical engineering programs. This new sixth edition has been revised and updated with 20% new problems and greater emphasis on computer-aided design.
It gives us great pleasure to present this book on the developments in data storage, from a
materials perspective. This book has been designed to help the final year undergraduate and
graduate students of physics, materials science, chemistry, electrical engineering, and other
disciplines with an interest in the magnetic recording...
A number of crucial societal applications like international border crossing, electronic
commerce, and welfare disbursement require reliable person recognition systems.
Traditional person authentication methods based on passwords and identity
documents often fail to meet the stringent security and performance demands of
these...
This book is intended for an introductory digital design course for students at the freshman
level; it is also intended for an introductory computer design course with assembly
language programming for students at the sophomore level or above. The material in the
book is suitable for students who study computer engineering,...
The title says "for Absolute Beginners." By that, I mean absolute beginners at programming. My original audience was teenagers whom I hope will go to college, get degrees in Mathematics, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering (or perhaps Technical Communication or Graphic Design), and then enter the software industry. However,...
Shortly, you will build your own mind-controlled robot. But that’s just the
beginning of what you’ll be able to do. As you follow the explanations for
components and codes, you will thoroughly understand how your robot
works. You can keep applying the knowledge to your own robots and EEGbased...
This book presents and discusses research in the study of computer science. Topics
discussed include fuzzy logic in molecular computing; mobile database computing; learning
methods for spam filtering; heterogeneous systems; nested relational database systems;
advanced array processing techniques and systems and swarm intelligence....
In the early days, embedded systems were built primarily by engineers in a
pretty exclusive club. Embedded devices and software tools were expensive,
and building a functional prototype required significant software engineering and electrical engineering experience.
With the arrival of Arduino, the open source electronics...
