The goal of this book is to describe new concepts for Internet next generation. This architecture is based on virtual networking using Cloud and datacenters facilities. Main problems concern 1) the placement of virtual resources for opening a new network on the fly, and 2) the urbanisation of virtual resource implemented on physical network...
Nonlinear Digital Filtering with Python: An Introduction discusses important structural filter classes including the median filter and a number of its extensions (e.g., weighted and recursive median filters), and Volterra filters based on polynomial nonlinearities. Adopting both structural and behavioral approaches in characterizing...
Coarse-grained reconfigurable architecture (CGRA) has emerged as a solution for flexible, application-specific optimization of embedded systems. Helping you understand the issues involved in designing and constructing embedded systems, Design of Low-Power Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architectures offers new frameworks for...
This Companion Volume to our Dictionary of Computer and Internet Terms (Vol.2) - Dictionary of Computer Acronyms and Abbreviations, has 4,300 terms. It also includes a section on file name extensions with 38,000 entries showing the most commonly used extensions and their association with various software systems. Volume 1 contains over 32,000...
Requirements for next generation networks (NGNs) are fueling an architectural evolution. Service providers are obliged to give users access to content anytime, anyhow, anywhere, on any device. This requires a converged infrastructure in which users across multiple domains can be served through a single unified domain and all network services...
Contactless identification has now become a mature technology worldwide, and it is only in certain areas of application, such as RFID at UHF and SHF, that some finishing touches are still required. Having worked in this field for many years, I felt the need to draw up a ‘report’ on this area of UHF and SHF. Up to the present, very...
The book by Christophe Bobda, however, has also been written for people with a software background, substantially reducing the educational leap by bridging the gap. His book has the potential to become a best-seller and to stimulate the urgently needed transformation of the software developer populations mind set, by playing a similar role as known...
Hybrid Intelligent Systems has become an important research topic in computer science and a key application field in science and engineering. This book offers a gentle introduction to the engineering aspects of hybrid intelligent systems, also emphasizing the interrelation with the main intelligent technologies such as genetic algorithms –...
One of the more confusing items about Web Services regards defining exactly what and why they are. Let's begin with why they exist.
Web Services exist to make it easier to integrate applications. Existing technologies include Java RMI, CORBA, and DCOM. All of these technologies work over networked environments and allow...
This book covers its subject very thoroughly. The framework the authors have established is very elegant and, if it catches on, this book could be the primary reference for this approach. I don't know of any other book that covers this set of topics. (Richard M. Murray, California Institute of Technology )
This book builds a novel bridge from molecular research to clinical therapy. This approach reveals the functional features of neurons and glia in the particular context of vulnerability and self-protection, intracellular properties and extracellular matrix. Arising from this platform, this volume unfolds the molecular and systemic processes...
