Arising from courses taught by the authors, this largely self-contained treatment is ideal for mathematicians who are interested in applications or for students from applied fields who want to understand the mathematics behind their subject. Early chapters cover Fourier analysis, functional analysis, probability and linear algebra, all of...
Build your own sophisticated modular home security system using the popular Raspberry Pi board
About This Book
This book guides you through building a complete home security system with Raspberry Pi and helps you remotely access it from a mobile device over the Internet
Too much mathematical rigor teaches rigor mortis: the fear of making
an unjustified leap even when it lands on a correct result. Instead of
paralysis, have courage—shoot first and ask questions later. Although
unwise as public policy, it is a valuable problem-solving philosophy, and
it is the theme of this book: how to...
The Raspberry Pi Zero is a powerful, low-cost, credit-card sized computer, which lends
itself perfectly to begin the controller of sophisticated home automation devices. Using the
available on-board interfaces, the Raspberry Pi Zero can be expanded to allow the
connection of a virtually infinite number of security sensors and...
This book is based upon courses on sampling algorithms. After having used
scattered notes for several years, I have decided to completely rewrite the
material in a consistent way. The books of Brewer and Hanif (1983) and
H´ajek (1981) have been my works of reference. Brewer and Hanif (1983) have
drawn up an...
Ruby is the fastest growing and most exciting dynamic language out there. If you need to get working programs delivered fast, you should add Ruby to your toolbox.
This book is the only complete reference for both Ruby 1.9 and Ruby 2.0, the very latest version of Ruby.
Cooperative Control of Nonlinear NetworkedSystems is concerned with the distributed cooperative control of multiple networked nonlinear systems in the presence of unknown non-parametric uncertainties and non-vanishing disturbances under certain communication conditions. It covers stability analysis tools and...
Five Modes of Scepticism examines the argument forms that lie at the heart of Pyrrhonian scepticism as expressed in the writings of Sextus Empiricus. These are the Agrippan modes of disagreement, hypothesis, infinite regression, reciprocity and relativity; modes which are supposed to bring about that quintessentially sceptical...
