A fully updated second edition of the excellent Digital Audio Signal Processing Well established in the consumer electronics industry, Digital Audio Signal Processing (DASP) techniques are used in audio CD, computer music and multi-media components. In addition, the applications afforded by this versatile technology now range from real-time signal processing to room simulation. Digital Audio Signal Processing, Second Edition covers the latest signal processing algorithms for audio processing. Every chapter has been completely revised with an easy to understand introduction into the basics and exercises have been included for self testing. Additional Matlab files and Java Applets have been provided on an accompanying website, which support the book by easy to access application examples. Key features include: A thoroughly updated and revised second edition of the popular Digital Audio Signal Processing, a comprehensive coverage of the topic as whole ...

Learn proven, real-world techniques for managing the software requirements engineering process. This award-winning book has been expanded with new topics, including use cases, up-to-date tools, more field examples, and a new troubleshooting guide.

Ultra-wideband (UWB), short-pulse (SP) electromagnetics are now being used for an increasingly wide variety of applications, including collision avoidance radar, concealed object detection, and communications. Notable progress in UWB and SP technologies has been achieved by investigations of their theoretical bases and improvements in solid-state manufacturing, computers, and digitizers. UWB radar systems are also being used for mine clearing, oil pipeline inspections, archeology, geology, and electronic effects testing. Ultra-wideband Short-Pulse Electromagnetics 9 presents selected papers of deep technical content and high scientific quality from the UWB-SP9 Conference, which was held from July 21-25, 2008, in Lausanne, Switzerland. The wide-ranging coverage includes contributions on electromagnetic theory, time-domain computational techniques, modeling techniques, antennas, pulsed-power, UWB interactions, radar systems, UWB communications, broadband systems and components.

Elmasri, Levine, and Carrick's 'spiral approach' to teaching operating systems develops student understanding of various OS components early on and helps students approach the more difficult aspects of operating systems with confidence. While operating systems have changed dramatically over the years, most OS books use a linear approach that covers each individual OS component in-depth, which is difficult for students to follow and requires instructors to constantly put materials in context. Elmasri, Levine, and Carrick do things differently by following an integrative or 'spiral' approach to explaining operating systems. The spiral approach alleviates the need for an instructor to 'jump ahead' when explaining processes by helping students 'completely' understand a simple, working, functional system as a whole in the very beginning. This is more effective pedagogically, and it inspires students to continue exploring more advanced concepts with confidence.

L'evolution technologique et scientifique a l'heure actuelle se repercute, en tout ou en partie, sur le domaine de la CAO. On assiste a une universalisation des techniques de conception, qui se basent souvent sur les memes algorithmes, que ce soit pour l'industrie aeronautique, pour la medecine ou pour d'autres domaines. Cette pluridisciplinarite nait des differentes vues de la conception, qui ne se fait plus seulement par des ingenieurs, mais par un public tres varie, et qui entraine, a son tour, des differentes techniques d'interaction. Pour repondre a cette diversite, les systemes de CAO devraient assister l'utilisateur par des outils de modelisation adaptes. Une approche dans ce sens serait d'integrer les deformations avec des contraintes metier. Ainsi, le concepteur pourrait se concentrer sur son metier plutot que sur le modele geometrique. L'etude presente a comme objectif la creation d'un modeleur de deformation de surfaces avec un comportement metier bien precis. L'etude...

A fascinating new interdisciplinary field, Data Mining makes it possible to extract explicit knowledge hidden in large databases and to enhance this by adding specialist findings. Financial institutions have derived considerable benefits from its application, while other industries and disciplines are now applying the methodology to increasing effect. In this book, researchers and application developers from many different areas share state-of-the-art research results and practical development experiences. All of the contributions were originally presented as invited talks and refereed papers at the Second International Conference on Data Mining. Over 60 papers are featured and these are divided under the following headings: Applications of Data Mining in Science, Engineering, Business, Industry and Medicine; Data Warehousing and Databases; Internet Applications; Data Mining Methodologies; Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining; Neural Networks and Decision Trees; ...

Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game, the War of the Ring Online Campaign, Serpent Lord, All at Sea, Mahud. Excerpt: All at Sea is a naval ruleset for Games Workshop 's miniature wargame The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game . The official rules were a modified version of the Warhammer Boat rules, adapted by Nick Davis and first presented in Games Workshop's White Dwarf magazine (US issue 295 ).The game's mechanics centred around boarding parties , with options for ramming actions and light artillery in the form of ballistae and other siege engines . As such, the game's scale ratio corresponds to the 25mm scale miniatures used by The Lord of the Rings. Games Workshop has not yet released any model ships for this system, opting instead to provide terrain guides for model shipbuilding , but...
