Mixed-mode switching circuits distinguish themselves from other circuits by including switches that are either clocked externally or controlled internally. These circuits have found broad applications in telecommunication networks, instrumentation, and power electronic systems, to name a few. It is the emergence of switched capacitor...

The important role that discrete structures plays in computer science is gaining recognition. Computing Curricula 2001 (CC2001), the latest curriculum recommendation for computer- related education, was a joint undertaking of the Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers/Computer Society (IEEE/CS) and the Association for...

Testing has always been a part of software development. For decades, comprehensive testing was defined by complex manual test procedures backed by big budgets; but something revolutionary happened in 1998. In his Guide to Better Smalltalk, Smalltalk guru Kent Beck introduced an automated test framework called SUnit. This triggered an...

The twentieth century witnessed the birth of revolutionary ideas in the phys- ical sciences. These ideas began to shake the traditional view of the universe dating back to the days of Newton, even to the days of Galileo. Albert Ein- stein is usually identified as the creator of the relativity theory, a theory that is used to model the...

This book is the second of two volumes addressing the design challenges associated with new generations of semiconductor technology. The various chapters are compiled from tutorials presented at workshops in recent years by prominent authors from all over the world. Technology, productivity and quality are the main aspects under consideration...

The third edition of Engineering Noise Control has been thoroughly revised, updated and extended. Each chapter contains new material, much of which is not available elsewhere. The result is a comprehensive discussion of the theoretical principles and concepts of acoustics and noise control, a detailed discussion of the hearing...

Graph rewriting systems have come of age. In autumn 1994, the 25th anniversary of the first publication in this area was celebrated at the 5th Workshop on Graph Grammars and their Applications to Computer Science. In the interim, the subject has evolved. The current situation can be described by a three-stage model. At the very low...

The present work grew out of lecture notes I prepared for a Vh hour tutorial that I was invited to give at the 29th IEEE Computer Conference (CompCon) in San Francisco on February 27, 1987. I have just completed a substantial update of the material, including the addition of several topics. My main purpose is to provide a...

Introduction to Microcontrollers is a comprehensive introductory text/reference for electrical and computer engineers, students, and even hobbyists who have little experience in a high-level programming language. The book helps them understand how a typical microcontroller executes assembly language instructions and addressing modes on...
