Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB for Engineering and Science is the latest book by best-selling author Steve Chapra. The new text uses MATLAB as the primary computing environment and focuses on applications. Theory is included only when it has direct use to the student; i.e., when theory informs the concepts. Information relating...
MATLABä-the tremendously popular computation, numerical analysis, signal processing, data analysis, and graphical software package-allows virtually every scientist and engineer to make better and faster progress. As MATLAB's world-wide sales approach a half-million with an estimated four million users, it becomes a near necessity...
Based on the author’s course at NYU, Linear Algebra and Probability for Computer Science Applicationsgives an introduction to two mathematical fields that are fundamental in many areas of computer science. The course and the text are addressed to students with a very weak mathematical background. Most of the...
This is a lively textbook for an introductory course in numerical methods, MATLAB, and technical computing, which emphasises the informed use of mathematical software. Numerical Computing with MATLAB helps readers learn about the mathematical functions in MATLAB, how to appreciate their limitations, and how to use and modify them appropriately....
Contains a large number of MATLAB-based problems, and includes coverage of the fundamentals of analog and digital communications, with emphasis on digital communications, illustrative examples, and Exploration examples with step-by-step solutions. MATLAB solved examples and exercises (with answers) reinforce and extend concepts presented, and...
Explore cutting-edge statistical methodologies for collecting, analyzing, and modeling online auction data

"The first introductory-level book to emphasize practical applications through the use of example problems."
–– International Journal of General Systems, Vol. 31, No. 1, 2002, on the first edition
The use of genetic algorithms (GAs) to solve large and often complex computational problems has given rise...
This book constitutes an excellent source for understanding the basic operation of the Global Positioning Systems (GPS). It also allows the reader to take the first steps towards understanding how the Kalman Filter is implemented in the estimation of drifting parameters of the GPS. The "Kalman Filter Basics" chapter is preceded by a...
An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB®, Second Edition illustrates the usefulness of PDEs through numerous applications and helps students appreciate the beauty of the underlying mathematics. Updated throughout, this second edition of a bestseller shows students how PDEs can...
This new work presents the mathematical theory and techniques for analyzing and modeling high-performance global communication networks, with a focus on software employed at the end nodes and intermediate switches.
Topics include, but are not limited to Markov chains and queuing analysis, traffic modeling, interconnection networks, and switch...
In the last fifty years, extensive studies have been carried out worldwide in the field of adaptive array systems. However, far from being a mature technology with little research left to tackle, there is seemingly unlimited scope to develop the fundamental characteristics and applications of adaptive antennas for future 3G and 4G mobile...
This text is written for use in a second course in circuit analysis. The reader of this book should have the traditional undergraduate knowledge of an introductory circuit analysis material such as Circuit Analysis I with MATLAB® Applications by this author. Another prerequisite would be knowledge of differential equations, and in most...
