High-Speed DSP and Analog System Design is based on the author’s over 25 years of experience in high-speed DSP and computer systems and courses in both digital and analog systems design at Rice University. It provides hands-on, practical advice for working engineers, including: • Tips on cost-efficient design and system simulation...

Weighted finite automata are classical nondeterministic finite automata in which the transitions carry weights. These weights may model, for example, the cost involved when executing a transition, the resources or time needed for this, or the probability or reliability of its successful execution. Weights can also be added to classical automata...

Let’s just look it right in the eye and call it out. We in the IT industries have been barraged with the buzzwords over and over again since we rolled into the new millennium: the transition to utility computing, or grid computing, or cloud computing (depending on the source/exact month/position of the stars in the sky). We’ve...

Communication protocols form the operational basis of computer networks and tele­communication systems. They are behavior conventions that describe how com­munication systems inter­act with each other, defining the temporal order of the interactions and the formats of the data units exchanged – essentially they determine the...

This reference provides real-world examples, strategies, and templates for the implementation of effective design control programs that meet current ISO 9000 and FDA QSR standards and regulations-offering product development models for the production of safe, durable, and cost-efficient medical devices and systems.
