The theory of computing provides computer science with concepts, models, and formalisms for reasoning about both the resources needed to carry out computations and the efficiency of the computations that use these resources. It provides tools to measure the difficulty of combinatorial problems both absolutely and in comparison with other...

The issue of fundamental limitations in filtering and control lies at the very heart of any feedback system design, since it reveals what is and is not achievable on the basis of that system's structural and dynamic characteristics. Alongside new succinct treatments of Bode's original results from the 1940s, this book presents a...
This volume discusses a construction situated at the intersection of two different mathematical fields: Abstract harmonic analysis, understood as the theory of group representations and their decomposition into irreducibles on the one hand, and wavelet (and related) transforms on the other. In a sense the volume reexamines one of the roots of...
In Thermal and Power Management of Integrated Circuits, power and thermal management issues in integrated circuits during normal operating conditions and stress operating conditions are addressed. Thermal management in VLSI circuits is becoming an integral part of the design, test, and manufacturing. Proper thermal management...
This edited volume focuses on the adoption of run-time models for the design and management of autonomic systems. Traditionally, performance models have a central role in the design of computer systems. Models are used at design-time to support the capacity planning of the physical infrastructure and to analyze the effects and trade-offs of...

More than ever before, today's Oracle DBA faces a database farm that is growing both in physical size and actual numbers. To keep these databases up and performing at exceptional levels, the database administrator needs more than a cobbled together set of scripts that they use to (hopefully) verify that everything is in order.
