Electromagnetic Wave Scattering from Random Rough Surfaces: Asymptotic Models

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

Electromagnetic wave scattering from random rough surfaces is an active, interdisciplinary area of research with myriad practical applications in fields such as optics, acoustics, geoscience and remote sensing.
Focusing on the case of random rough surfaces, this book presents classical asymptotic models used to describe...

Telescope Optics : Complete Manual for Amateur Astronomers

Willmann-Bell, 1988

The authors gratefully acknowledge the help of Klaas Compaan, who was our advisor during the writing of this book. He guarded us against a number of errors and unclarities and also allowed us to publish the data for some of the new optical systems he has designed.

We received further support from Richard Berry, our editor. He invested a...

Parallel Scientific Computing and Optimization: Advances and Applications (Springer Optimization and Its Applications)

Springer, 2008

This work introduces new developments in the construction, analysis, and implementation of parallel computing algorithms. This book presents 23 self-contained chapters, including surveys, written by distinguished researchers in the field of parallel computing. Each chapter is devoted to some aspects of the subject: parallel algorithms for matrix...

Ultra-Fast Fiber Lasers: Principles and Applications with MATLAB® Models (Optics and Photonics)

CRC Press, 2010

Ultrashort pulses in mode-locked lasers are receiving focused attention from researchers looking to apply them in a variety of fields, from optical clock technology to measurements of the fundamental constants of nature and ultrahigh-speed optical communications. Ultrashort pulses are especially important for the next generation of...

Network Sales and Services Handbook

Cisco Press, 2002

A technical handbook for network sales and customer service personnel

One of the most significant challenges in any technical organization is knowledge transfer: getting the knowledge from those "in the know" (network engineers or consultants) to those on the "front lines" (those individuals who are...

Broadband Optical Access Networks and Fiber-to-the-Home: Systems Technologies and Deployment Strategies

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

Broadband Optical Access and Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) will provide the ultimate broadband service capabilities.

Compared with the currently well-deployed broadband access technologies of ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) and Cable Modems, optical broadband access with Fiber-to-the-User’s home will cater for...

GPU-Based Techniques for Global Illumination Effects (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Graphics)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

Real-time rendering poses severe computational requirements to computers. In order to maintain a continuous looking motion for the human eye, at least 20 images need to be generated in each second. An image consists of about a million pixels, which means that for a single pixel the visible point and its color should be computed in less than 50 ns...

Optical Sources, Detectors, and Systems

Academic Press, 1995

Optical Sources, Detectors, and Systems presents a unified approach, from the applied engineering point of view, to radiometry, optical devices, sources, and receivers. One of the most important and unique features of the book is that it combines modern optics, electric circuits, and system analysis into a unified, comprehensive...

Information Optics and Photonics: Algorithms, Systems, and Applications

Springer, 2010

This book will address the advances, applications, research results, and emerging areas of optics, photonics, computational approaches, nano-photonics, bio-photonics, with applications in information systems. The objectives are to bring together novel approaches, analysis, models, and technologies that enhance sensing, measurement,...

Fiber Optics Technician's Manual

Thomson Delmar Learning, 2000

Fiber Optic Technician's Manual, now in its second edition, continues to serve as a practical guide for the designer, installer, and troubleshooter of fiber optic cable plants and networks used in today's communications systems. Comprehensive in scope, this book addresses applications of fiber optics including telephone, CATV, and computer...

Quantum Wells, Wires and Dots: Theoretical and Computational Physics of Semiconductor Nanostructures

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

This book is aimed at providing all of the essential information, both theoretical and computational, in order that the reader can, starting from essentially nothing, understand how the electronic, optical and transport properties of semiconductor heterostructures are calculated. However, perhaps more importantly, starting from this low...
