From both a technical and a practical point of view, there is much to examine, evaluate and understand in the new 3GPP LTE cellular technology before its projected deployment in 2010. This book, written by Agilent engineers in collaboration with Anite...
Methods in Membrane Lipids presents a compendium of methodologies for the study of membrane lipids, varying from traditional lab bench experimentation to computer simulation and theoretical models. This volume provides a comprehensive set of techniques for studying membrane lipids, and their interactions with other membrane lipids, with...
Programming is an art. Although traditional art imitates life, programming simulates life.
Every abstract concept in programming, and to a great extent in the fi eld of computer science,
has its roots in our daily life. For example, humans and possibly all other living forms
were multiprocessing long before the term entered into...
Microsoft has introduced a large number of changes to the way that the .NET Framework operates. Familiar technologies have being altered, best practices replaced, and developer methodologies adjusted. Many developers find it hard to keep up with the pace of change across .NET's ever-widening array of technologies. The introduction of...
For me, this book has become all about change. In the time that I have been watching the mobile
computing marketplace and developing software solutions for it, there has never been a time when there
has been a more rapid series of shifts and changes. A good friend of mine tells me that this is because of
market consolidation. As of...
