This material addresses basic abstract concepts of transistor circuits as well as advanced topics such as ADCs and PLLs, providing a proper perspective on this advanced SoC design. Other topics include DAC, phase locked loop, frequency synthesizer, clock recovery, and digital assisting.

Reintroducing the largely forgotten parametric microwave circuit design technique to the RFIC design community, this book describes how reactive varactor-based amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters can be designed in modern integrated circuit topologies. The text addresses the issue of integrated reactive RFIC design in a logical manner, presenting key technological trade-offs, the advantages and disadvantages of modern devices in potential parametric designs, and layout tips for optimal performance. After an introduction to parametric circuits, their basic operation, and historical development, the author outlines how varactors operate in modern silicon-based processes.

Multihomed communication is clearly a trend of next generation networks, which will be heterogeneous in nature. There is no known book covering this topic exclusively. This is probably because a good framework for its implementation has only recently been established by SCTP. There are very few books about SCTP in general and no known book exploring multihomed communication with SCTP. A book on this topic should help many researchers and programmers to learn about multihomed communications in general and to take full advantage of multihomed communications with SCTP specifically.

Emulation is a hybrid experimentation technique intended to bridge the gap between simulation and real-world testing. The key idea of emulation is to reproduce in real time and in a controlled manner the essential functionality of a system, so that it can interact with other real systems that can thus be evaluated.

This book describes the technique of network emulation and compares it with the other experimental approaches: the scholarly analytical modeling, the popular network simulation, and the demanding real-world testing. To emphasize the practical aspects related to emulation, this book presents a large number of examples of network emulators on the market as well as provides an in-depth analysis of a case study, the wireless network emulation testbed called QOMB.

Using step-by-step processes to build and generate attacks using offensive techniques, this volume enables readers to implement appropriate network security solutions within a laboratory environment. Topics covered include CAM table poisoning attacks on network switches, ARP cache poisoning attacks, the detection and prevention of abnormal ARP traffic, network traffic sniffing and the detection of NICs running in promiscuous mode, and IP-based DoS attacks.

It also examines reconnaissance traffic, network traffic filtering and inspection, and IPsec VPN) security solution protocols, standards, types, and deployments.

Present-day computers lack well-defined functions to accept various kinds of sensual information such as vision, hearing and smelling (binding problem).

Computers also lack any well-defined mechanisms to coordinate various behaviors in the presence of an object (conscious mechanism). This book serves as a breakthrough that opens a new world. Using the ideas presented in the book, computer systems can be developed to conduct conscious activities like human beings. Human beings will be able to develop mechanisms in which machines will have their own feelings, will behave according to their own consciousness, and will continue to learn for their betterment.

Social robots are a frontier research area in robotics and human–computer interaction. This book summarizes the research of the Robovie project at ATR Intelligent Robotics and Communication Laboratories, a world leader in humanoid interactive robotics. The text covers interdisciplinary topics related to interactive robots, including human behavior recognition and behavior-based control. It presents the results of field studies conducted with non-technical users in everyday environments—such as train stations and shopping malls—and discusses the implementation of robots that interact with sensors and users over a telecommunications network.

Design and Analysis of Experiments with SAS John Lawson

Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Monographs on Statistics & Applied Probability

Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, USA

Despite the introduction of constrained principal component analysis (CPCA) over 20 years ago, there is no single resource that examines its ramifications, extensions, implementations, and applications. This book explores how CPCA incorporates external information into PCA of a main data matrix. It provides a systematic, in-depth account of the mathematical underpinnings, special cases, related topics, interesting applications, and implementation details. The author explains how CPCA first decomposes the data matrix according to the external information (external analysis) and then applies PCA to decomposed matrices (internal analysis).

This textbook covers both classical ideas in experimental design and the latest research topics. It clearly discusses the objectives of a research project that lead to an appropriate design choice, the practical aspects of creating a design and performing experiments, and the interpretation of computer data analysis results. Using SAS 9.2 to illustrate the construction of experimental designs and analysis of data, the author presents many applications from the pharmaceutical, agricultural, industrial chemicals, and machinery industries. SAS code and ancillaries are available on the author’s website. A solutions manual is available upon qualifying course adoption.

Biomaterials for MEMS Edited by

Tianhu Lei

Mu Chiao

Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Interdisciplinary Statistics

University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada

Statistical investigation into technology not only provides a better understanding of the intrinsic features of the technology (analysis) but also leads to an improved design of the technology (synthesis). Physical principles and mathematical procedures of medical imaging technologies have been extensively studied during past decades. However, less work has been done on their statistical aspect. Filling this gap, this book provides a theoretical framework for statistical investigation into medical technologies. Rather than offer detailed descriptions of statistics of basic imaging protocols of x-ray CT and MRI, the book presents a method to conduct similar statistical investigations into more complicated imaging protocols.

Jung-Chih Chiao This book serves as a guide for practicing engineers, researchers, and students interested in MEMS devices and biomaterials and biomedical applications.

It is also suitable for engineers and researchers interested in MEMS and its applications but who do not have the necessary background in biomaterials.

The book highlights important features and issues of biomaterials that have been used in MEMS and biomedical areas, including the fabrication of devices using biomaterials, biocompatible coatings and issues, thin-film biomaterials and MEMS for tissue engineering, and applications involving MEMS and biomaterials.

Textbook

This work explains how the non-interaction of waves principle applies to both classical and quantum optics. Focusing on waves in the linear domain, it explores ambiguous, contradictory, and paradoxical concepts that exist in spite of apparently correct mathematical formulations. The author reformulates classical and quantum optics mathematics by clearly defining the methodology used for gathering information from these measurements. The book provides the tools to properly validate a model of these measurements, thus giving a more coherent and simpler understanding of classical and quantum optics.

Guided Wave Photonics Fundamentals and Applications with MATLAB®

Fundamentals of Attosecond Optics

Le Nguyen Binh

University of Central Florida, Orlando, USA

Series: Optics and Photonics

This book’s coverage builds from basic underlying theory to more complex ideas related to attosecond optics. It shows how the generation of attosecond optical pulses requires knowledge of femtosecond laser technologies but is also quite distinct from femtosecond laser technologies. The author elaborates on this point using semi-classical models and quantum mechanics theories. He explains generation of attosecond pulse train and gating methods for extracting single isolated pulses and presents illustrative examples of attosecond applications.

In the early part of this century, silicon photonics emerged as one of the most important developments for interconnecting ultra-high-speed electronic subsystems on an ultra large scale of integrated electronic circuits. Guided wave technology supplies the techniques for these interconnections. Along with covering fundamentals, this book provides an advanced understanding of guided optical wave devices. It focuses on the essentials of the technology and applies these aspects to modern optical fiber communications and signal processing. MATLAB® code is included throughout the text. A solutions manual and figure slides are available upon qualifying course adoption.

Molded Optics Design and Manufacture Michael Schaub, Jim Schwiegerling, Eric Fest, R. Hamilton Shepard, and Alan Symmons Series: Optics and Optoelectronics

Many new mathematical techniques are being introduced in optical science and engineering and are available mainly in the research literature. These novel methods go beyond the traditional mathematics curriculum taught in graduate school, and they offer plenty of room for future research and applications (e.g., in image processing). This book offers students and new entrants to the field a clear introduction to many of these techniques. The reference is well illustrated, and most chapters contain useful computer codes (mainly in Mathematica®) and exercises that can be used for self study. The author also includes additional material on courses in mathematical methods.

While several available texts discuss molded plastic optics, none provide information on all classes of molded optics. Filling this gap, Molded Optics presents detailed descriptions of molded plastic, glass, and infrared optics. Since an understanding of the manufacturing process is necessary to develop costeffective, producible designs, the book extensively covers various manufacturing methods, design guidelines, trade-offs, best practices, and testing of critical parameters. It also discusses topics that often arise when designing systems with molded optics, such as mitigating stray light and mating systems by eye.

All conventional machines rely upon magnetic fields for the purpose of energy conversion. This book approaches the study of electric machines by directly dealing with the electromagnetic fields. Focusing on the terminal rather than on the internal characteristics of machines, the text characterizes the machine in terms of coupled magnetic circuits rather than magnetic fields. It provides problem sets and numerical examples, addresses Park’s equations starting from winding functions, describes operation as a LCI motor drive, and presents synchronous machine transient simulation as well as voltage regulation. The author provides a deeper understanding of complex electromechanical drives.

Written as a textbook and a reference, this book provides readers with an indepth view of the principles of the operation of electric machines and drives and their simulation and optimization using a balanced combination of physical insight and mathematics. It serves as a comprehensive reference on the subject by presenting a wide variety of electric machines and their powerelectronic drive and presents a thorough discussion of applications such as electric propulsion systems and wind-energy applications. The author includes examples of issues and solutions, as well as case studies. Approximately 15 homework problems are included within each chapter. A solutions manual and figure slides are available upon qualifying course adoption.
