The Novartis Foundation Series is a popular collection of the proceedings from Novartis Foundation Symposia, in which groups of leading scientists from a range of topics across biology, chemistry and medicine assembled to present papers and discuss results. The Novartis Foundation, originally known as the Ciba Foundation, is well known to scientists and clinicians around the world.
Geomembranes are flexible polymeric sheets which are used as relatively impermeable liners to contain liquid and vapour. With uses ranging from canal liners to hazard waste landfills, they are used extensively in a range of industries such as water conservation, mining, construction and waste management. A Guide to Polymeric Geomembranes: A Practical Approach offers an informed overview of the dev…
One of the most important key technologies for digital communication systems as well as storage media is coding theory. It provides a means to transmit information across time and space over noisy and unreliable communication channels. Coding Theory: Algorithms, Architectures and Applications provides a concise overview of channel coding theory and practice, as well as the accompanying signal proc…
During the last 15 years, the interest in vehicular communication has grown, especially in the automotive industry. Due to the envisioned mass market, projects focusing on Car-to-X communication experience high public visibility. This book presents vehicular communication in a broader perspective that includes more than just its application to the automotive industry. It provides, researchers, eng…
UWB (ultra-wideband) has been investigated for many decades but only recently has it become commercially viable. With the advent of WiMedia UWB technology and its associated standard specifications, the stage is set for the next generation of WPAN applications to take root. WiMedia UWB focuses on the ECMA-368 standard. Both PHY layer and MAC sublayers specified in this standard are explained in gr…
The 3rd edition of this highly successful text builds on the achievement of the first two editions to provide comprehensive coverage of IMS. It continues to explore the concepts, architecture, protocols and functionalities of IMS while providing a wealth of new and updated information. It is written in a manner that allows readers to choose the level of knowledge and understanding they need to gai…
An advanced yet accessible treatment of the welding process and its underlying science. Despite the critically important role welding plays in nearly every type of human endeavor, most books on this process either focus on basic technical issues and leave the science out, or vice versa. In Principles of Welding, industry expert and prolific technical speaker Robert W. Messler, Jr. takes an integra…
The authors explain the changes in the thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of polymer composites under elevated temperatures and fire conditions. Using microscale physical and chemical concepts they allow researchers to find reliable solutions to their engineering needs on the macroscale. In a unique combination of experimental results and quantitative models, a framework is developed t…
В данной статье рассматриваются прикладные задачи, для решения которых ранее предлагался метод динамического программирования, разработанный Р. Беллманом в середине прошлого века. Этот метод, основанный на принципе оптимальности и вытекающих из него рекуррентных уравнениях, позволил свести решение многих сложных прикладных задач к решению последовательности более простых однотипных задач. К настоя…
Одним из ключевых направлений информатизации деятельности органов государственной власти является разработка и внедрение систем автоматизированной обработки электронных обращений (заявлений, жалоб, предложений) физических и юридических лиц, поступающих на официальные веб-сайты и порталы органов власти федеральных округов, администраций областей и других территориальных образований. Важную роль при…
В настоящее время системы управления эффективностью, позволяющие ликвидировать разрыв между стратегическими планами и операционной деятельностью, крайне важны для предприятий и организаций разных отраслей. Ввиду опосредованного и неявного характера экономических выгод, получаемых в результате использования таких систем, традиционные методы инвестиционного анализа оказываются неприменимыми для оцен…
