A definitive guide to Microfuel Cells principles and applications.
Today's consumers of portable electronics consumers are demanding devices not only deliver more power but also work healthy for the environment. This fact alone has lead major corporations like Intel, BIC, Duracell and Microsoft to believe that Microfuel Cells...
"A real world tool for helping develop effective marketing strategies and plans." -- Dennis Dunlap, Chief Executive Officer, American Marketing Association
"For beginners and professionals in search of answers." -- Stephen Joel Trachtenberg, President Emeritus and University Professor of Public...
Under the conditions of market economy, the government is an independent economic entity, whose function is not only to provide services and handle public affairs, but also to coordinate, advance and lead economic development. The dual functions of regional government include providing service and administration at the micro-level on behalf...
The C language was development at Bell Labs in the early 1970’s by Dennis
Ritchie and Brian Kernighan. One of the first platforms for implementation was
the PDP-11 running under a UNIX environment.
Since its introduction, it has evolved and been standardized throughout the
computing industry as an established development...
This proceedings volume documents recent cutting-edge developments in multi-robot systems research. This volume is the result of the Third International workshop on Multi-Robot Systems that was held in March 2005 at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C. This workshop brought together top researchers working in areas relevant to...
Microsensors and MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) are revolutionising the semiconductor industry. A microsystem or the so-called "system-on-a-chip" combines microelectronic circuitry with microsensors and microactuators. This emergent field has seen the development of applications ranging from the electronic nose and...
This title presents a collection of contributions from internationally renowned researchers in the field of the Science and Technology of micro and mesoporous materials.
Crystalline solids with highly structured micro-scale pores are called zeolites. Their well-defined structure and large contact surface make them extremely...
The book summarizes many of the recent technical research accomplishments in the area of engineering polymers, such as oxygen containing main chain polymers (Polyether and Polyesters). The book emphasizes the various aspects of preparation, structure, processing, morphology, properties and applications of engineering polymers....
Why simply play music or go online when you can use your iPhone or iPad for some really fun projects, such as building a metal detector, hacking a radio control truck, or tracking a model rocket in flight? Learn how to build these and other cool things by using iOS device sensors and inexpensive hardware such as Arduino and a...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials have developed into economically and structurally viable construction materials for buildings and bridges over the last 20 years. FRP composite materials used in structural engineering typically consist of glass, carbon, or aramid fibers encased in a matrix of epoxy, polyester, vinylester, or...
Somebody once said that one may prove the correctness of an algorithm, but not of a
program. One of the main goals of this book is to convince the reader that things are
not so bad.
A well-known programmer, C.A.R. Hoare, said that the beauty of a program is
not an additional benefit but a criterion...
This edited book presents the problems of time and direction from an interdisciplinary point of view, concentrating in particular on the following relations:
• Time and physics
• Time, philosophy and psychology
• Time, mathematics and information theory
