The area of Neural computing that we shall discuss in this book represents a combination of techniques of classical optimization, statistics, and information theory. Neural network was once widely called artificial neural networks, which represented how the emerging technology was related to artificial intelligence. It once was a topic that...

The Belgian block cipher Rijndael was chosen in 2000 by the U.S. government’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to be the successor to the Data Encryption Standard. Rijndael was subsequently standardized as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which is potentially the world’s most important block cipher. In...

• Install your first operating system, share files over the network, and run programs remotely
• Construct robots and interface with your own circuits and purpose built add-ons, as well as adapt off-the-shelf household devices using this pragmatic guide
• Packed with clear,...

Unlike wired networks where transmitters have no effect on receivers other than their own, in wireless networks we are limited by interference. The traditional routing methods are not optimal any more when it comes to a wireless medium. The maximum data rate on each link depends not only on the power in that link but also on the transmitted...
