Many algorithms have already been proposed in the past to solve the problem of allocating resources in a multi-user multicarrier wireless system. Due to the difficulty of the problem, most of the previous work in this area has focused on developing suboptimal heuristics without performance guarantees.
Control of flexible beam systems constitutes an important benchmark problem in
many application areas, such as flexible manipulators for grasping, marine mooring
lines for station keeping, marine risers for oil transportation, and crane cables for
positioning the payload. Flexible systems have a number of advantages...
Generic group algorithms solve computational problems defined over algebraic groups without exploiting properties of a particular representation of group elements. This is modeled by treating the group as a black-box. The fact that a computational problem cannot be solved by a reasonably restricted class of algorithms may be seen as support...
Although managing projects has been going on for thousands of years, the practice has only recently been recognized as a discipline in its own right. Suddenly master’s-level degree programs are springing up at schools throughout the world, and certificate programs are being offered as well. Not only that, but some organizations...
Apple has taken the digital music world by storm and the Absolute Beginner's Guide to iPod + iTunes, Second Edition is your umbrella. It will provide you with all of the information that you need to get the most out of these amazing digital music tools. From the basics of listening to audio CDs using iTunes to...
Beginning Amazon Web Services with Node.js teaches any novice Node.js developer to configure, deploy, and maintain scalable small to large scale Node.js applications in Amazon Web Services. Hosting a Node.js application in a production environment usually means turning to PaaS hosting, but this approach brings problems. Deploying...
The lower cost and increased flexibility and availability of computer networks means that they are rapidly replacing centralized 'mainframes'. The implementation of networked systems and the control of applications running in them require, however, the design of new techniques and methods: collectively known as distributed algorithms....
Simulation based on mathematical models plays a major role in computer aided design of integrated circuits (ICs). Decreasing structure sizes, increasing packing densities and driving frequencies require the use of refined mathematical models, and to take into account secondary, parasitic effects. This leads to very high dimensional problems...
This book introduce neurourology as an emerging interdisciplinary area that covers the basic and clinical studies of the neural control on the normal lower urinary tract and the lower/upper urinary tract dysfunction due to neuropathy disorders. It systematically describes all aspects of neurourology from the epidemiology of the...
Solve real-life programming problems with a fraction of the code that pure object-oriented programming requires. Use Scala and Clojure to solve in-depth problems with two sets of patterns: object-oriented patterns that become more concise with functional programming, and natively functional patterns. Your code will be more declarative, with...
