This book offers a comprehensive coverage to the mechanics of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), which are analyzed from a mechanical engineer’s viewpoint as devices that transform an input form of energy, such as thermal, electrostatic, electromagnetic or optical, into output mechanical motion (in the case of...
The 12th edition of Database Processing: Fundamentals, Design, and Implementation refines
the organization and content of this classic textbook to reflect a new teaching and professional
workplace environment. Students and other readers of this book will benefit from new
content and features in this edition.
This book is inspired by boredom and fascination: boredom with the usual presentation of data structures and algorithms, and fascination with complex
systems. The problem with data structures is that they are often taught without a motivating context; the problem with complexity science is that it is
usually not taught at...
Bringing together computational research tools in one accessible source, Reproducible Research with R and RStudio guides you in creating dynamic and highly reproducible research. Suitable for researchers in any quantitative empirical discipline, it presents practical tools for data collection, data analysis, and the...
Learn to integrate .NET and J2EE technologies to create cross-platform applications. This book also contains practical solutions for integration between the J2EE and .NET components in the Presentation tier and Business tier.
J2EE is a platform used for developing enterprise applications. Integrating J2EE with Microsoft...
This unique reference represents a cross-section of forefront robotics research, ranging from robotics and systems to learning, autonomy and failure detection, from vision and navigation to localization and mapping, which are based on the papers presented at the 1st European Robotics Symposium (EUROS-06) held in Palermo, Italy from 16-18 March,...
"With a name like Gohberg–Goldberg–Kaashoek, it has got to be good. But let me count the ways. If you are interested in learning the basic theories of Hilbert and Banach spaces together with the well-known operators that act on them, this book is for you. It is intended for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in...
This book is a thorough introduction to the most important topics in data mining and machine learning. It begins with a detailed review of classical function estimation and proceeds with chapters on nonlinear regression, classification, and ensemble methods. The final chapters focus on clustering, dimension reduction, variable selection, and...
The theory of optimal control systems has grown and flourished since the 1960's. Many texts, written on varying levels of sophistication, have been published on the subject. Yet even those purportedly designed for beginners in the field are often riddled with complex theorems, and many treatments fail to include topics that are essential...
Non-standard finite element methods, in particular mixed methods, are central to many applications. In this text the authors, Boffi, Brezzi and Fortin present a general framework, starting with a finite dimensional presentation, then moving on to formulation in Hilbert spaces and finally considering approximations, including stabilized...
