In Object Thinking, esteemed object technologist David West contends that the mindset makes the programmer—not the tools and techniques. Delving into the history, philosophy, and even politics of object-oriented programming. West reveals how the best programmers rely on analysis and conceptualization—on...
Neurocomputing methods are loosely based on a model of the brain as a network of simple interconnected processing elements corresponding to neurons. These methods derive their power from the collective processing of artificial neurons, the chief advantage being that such systems can learn and adapt to a changing environment. In knowledge-based...
Business Services Orchestration (BSO) is a new, unique, far-reaching industry technology encompassing the art of harmoniously organizing the interactions between business services. These business services may represent internal business processes of organizations. Integration of many of these internal legacy, custom, and COTS applications may,...
Engineering graphics is the process of defining an object graphically before it is
constructed and used by consumers. Previously, this process for producing a drawing
involved the use of drawing aids such as pencils, ink pens, triangles, T-squares, and so
forth to place an idea on paper before making changes and producing blue-line...
One of the most challenging tasks in today’s business and information technology (IT) environments
is to communicate a solution to an organizational problem in a simple manner that can be easily
understood by business and IT personnel alike. Is it also arduous to explain in simple words how
a remedy to an enterprise concern can be...
"Modeling" has become one of the primary concerns in modern Software
Engineering. The reason is simple: starting development processes from clear
and succinct models has proven to foster not only quality but also productivity.
With the advance of modeling there also came a desire for automatic code
generation from models....
This book compiles and presents the research results from the past five years in mm-wave Silicon circuits. This area has received a great deal of interest from the research community including several university and research groups. The book covers device modeling, circuit building blocks, phased array systems, and antennas and packaging. It...
This book presents as its main subject new models in mathematical neuroscience. A wide range of neural networks models with discontinuities are discussed, including impulsive differential equations, differential equations with piecewise constant arguments, and models of mixed type. These models involve discontinuities, which are natural...
An exciting new text for the advanced controls course, Control Engineering: A Modern Approach breaks with tradition by introducing a number of new topics--robust controls, for example--and omitting a number of topics dated by the use of digital computers. Bélanger gives the student a real introduction to control engineering...
“Data-Driven Modeling: Using MATLAB® in Water Resources and Environmental Engineering” provides a systematic account of major concepts and methodologies for data-driven models and presents a unified framework that makes the subject more accessible to and applicable for researchers and practitioners. It integrates important...
JMP 12 Specialized Models provides details about modeling techniques such as partitioning, neural networks, nonlinear regression, and time series analysis. Topics include the Gaussian platform, which is useful in analyzing computer simulation experiments. The book also covers the Response Screening platform, which is useful in testing the...
