The world of smart shoes, appliances, and phones is already here, but the practice of user experience (UX) design for ubiquitous computing is still relatively new. Design companies like IDEO and frogdesign are regularly asked to design products that unify software interaction, device design and service design -- which are all the key...

Progress in biology is dependent on the ability to observe, measure, and model the behavior of organisms at multiple levels of abstraction, from the microscopic to the macroscopic. There has been a tremendous growth recently in the techniques to probe the structure and workings of cellular and organ-level mechanisms. Significant advances have...

A treatment of distortion in RF power amplifiers. It seeks to offer guidance on designing easily linearizable systems that have low memory effects. The reader is offered a detailed understanding of how the matching impedances of a power amplifier and other RF circuits can be tuned to minimize overall distortion. It also demonstrates how to...

Human activity, such as burning fossil fuels, is causing a build-up of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) in the...

This third edition of Foundations of Algorithms Using C++ Pseudocode retains the features that made the second edition successful. As in the second edition, we still use pseudocode and not actual C++ code. The presentation of complex algorithms using all the details of any programming language would...
