Lost Sex: The Evolutionary Biology of Parthenogenesis

Springer, 2009

Sex is the queen of problems in evolutionary biology. Generations of researchers have investigated one of the last remaining evolutionary paradoxes: why sex exists at all. Given that sexual reproduction is costly from an evolutionary point of view, one could wonder why not all animals and plants reproduce asexually. Dozens of contemporary...

The Theory of Gambling and Statistical Logic, Second Edition

Academic Press, 2009

Early in his rise to enlightenment, man invented a concept that has since been variously viewed as a vice, a crime, a business, a pleasure, a type of magic, a disease, a folly, a weakness, a form of sexual substitution, an expression of the human instinct. He invented gambling.

Recent advances in the field, particularly...

Linear and Nonlinear Multivariable Feedback Control: A Classical Approach

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

Automatic feedback control systems play crucial roles in many fields, including manufacturing industries, communications, naval and space systems. At its simplest, a control system represents a feedback loop in which the difference between the ideal (input) and actual (output) signals is used to modify the behaviour of the system. Control...

Our War Paint Is Writers' Ink: Anishinaabe Literary Transnationalism (SUNY series, Native Traces)

SUNY Press, 2018

The first word of Anishinaabemowin my father ever taught me was “miigwech”—“thank you”—because it is the most important. I have had many opportunities to use the word over the course of writ ing this book, but I would be remiss if I didn’t take the time to say it once...

Critical Infrastructure Protection in Homeland Security: Defending a Networked Nation

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

A scientific approach to the new field of critical infrastructure protection

This book offers a unique scientific approach to the new field of critical infrastructure protection: it uses network theory, optimization theory, and simulation software to analyze and understand how infrastructure sectors evolve,...

Recent Advances in Formal Languages and Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2006

The theory of formal languages is widely accepted as the backbone of theoretical computer science. It mainly originated from mathematics (combinatorics, algebra, mathematical logic) and generative linguistics. All human problem solving capabilities can be considered in a certain sense as a manipulation of symbols and structures composed by symbols,...

Analysis and Control of Nonlinear Process Systems (Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing)

Springer, 2004

Almost all process systems are nonlinear in nature. Nonlinear control is traditionally an area of interest in process systems engineering which is of great practical importance. These facts notwithstanding, many process engineers have difficulty with the paradigms and results of modern nonlinear control theory because they lack the mathematical...

Physics of Semiconductor Devices

Springer, 2002

Physics of Semiconductor Devices is a textbook aimed at college undergraduate and graduate teaching. It covers both basic classic topics such as energy band theory and the gradual-channel model of the MOSFET as well as advanced concepts and devices such as MOSFET short-channel effects, low-dimensional devices and single-electron transistors. As a...

MATLAB Linear Algebra

Apress, 2014

MATLAB is a high-level language and environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming. Using MATLAB, you can analyze data, develop algorithms, and create models and applications. The language, tools, and built-in math functions enable you to explore multiple approaches and reach a solution faster than with spreadsheets or...

Ultra-Wideband Wireless Communications and Networks

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology has great potential for applications in wireless communications, radar and location. It has many benefits due to its ultra-wideband nature, which include high data rate, less path loss and better immunity to multipath propagation, availability of low-cost transceivers, low transmit power and low interference. Despite...

Technology Due Diligence: Best Practices for Chief Information Officers, Venture Capitalists, and Technology Vendors

Information Science Publishing, 2008

Due diligence conducted around technology decisions is complex. Done correctly, it has the power to enable outstanding positive outcomes; done poorly, it can wreak havoc on organizations, corporate cultures, and markets.
