Estimation Problems in Hybrid Systems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sworder, David D. / Boyd, John E., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Recent developments in sensor and processor sophistication have created a need for effective estimation and control algorithms for hybrid, nonlinear systems. This volume presents a highly effective, flexible family of estimation algorithms that can be used in estimating or controlling a wide variety of nonlinear plants. Several applications are studied, including tracking a maneuvering aircraft, automatic target recognition, and the decoding of signals transmitted across a wireless communications link. The authors begin by setting out the necessary theoretical background. They then develop a practical, finite-dimensional approximation to an optimal estimator. Throughout the chapters they illustrate theoretical results by simulation of control and estimation in real-world hybrid systems, drawn from a variety of engineering fields. The book will be of great interest to graduate students and researchers in electrical and computer engineering. It will also be a useful reference for practicing engineers involved in the design of estimation, tracking or wireless communications systems.

The Electronic Design Studio: Architectural Education in the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCullough, Malcolm / Mitchell, William J., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), For centuries architects have carried out shape computations by hand, using informal procedures and the simplest of tools. Over the last two decades, however, they have made increasing use of more formal procedures executed by computers, a development that raises challenging questions of architectural theory and perplexing issues for those concerned with the future of architectural education. In four parts - theoretical foundations, electronic media in the design studio, information delivery systems for design, and knowledge based design systems - this book frames those issues and provides a diversity of perspectives on them. "The Electronic Design Studio "contains over thirty extensively illustrated contributions that discuss the experiences of universities in the United States, Europe, Japan, Israel, Canada, and Australia with computer-aided architectural (CAAD) design, articulate current theoretical and practical concerns, provide criticism of media and methods, and suggest directions for the future. Architectural educators and architects concerned with the effect of computer technology on the design process will find this book an indispensable reference. As a current review of the state of the art of CAAD and an overview of the major issues, this is the most comprehensive source available.

Quantum-Classical Correspondence: Dynamical Quantization and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bolitschek, Josef, PUBLISHER: Springer, At what level of physical existence does "quantum behavior" begin? How does it develop from classical mechanics? This book addresses these questions and thereby sheds light on fundamental conceptual problems of quantum mechanics. It elucidates the problem of quantum-classical correspondence by developing a procedure for quantizing stochastic systems (e.g. Brownian systems) described by Fokker-Planck equations. The logical consistency of the scheme is then verified by taking the classical limit of the equations of motion and corresponding physical quantities. Perhaps equally important, conceptual problems concerning the relationship between classical and quantum physics are identified and discussed. Graduate students and physical scientists will find this an accessible entree to an intriguing and thorny issue at the core of modern physics.

Intelligent Systems and Interfaces

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mlynek, Daniel / Kandeland, Abraham / Teodorescu, Horia-Nicolai L., PUBLISHER: Springer, The field of intelligent interfaces and systems' has witnessed a rapid growth during the last decade. An impressive number of papers, conference tutorials, and volumes have been devoted to the topic. Ten years ago, intelligent systems constituted a rather exotic topic and many were skeptical as to whether such systems would amount to more than a nice name. Nowadays, intelligent systems represent a powerful tool in many applications, in all industrial fields. Their development evolved on both the horizontal dimension, with a constantly increasing number of applications, and on the vertical dimension, by including more capabilities ranging from sensoric to neurofuzzy systems, intelligent agents, speech and image understanding, and decision making in complex environments. Intelligent Systems and Interfaces represents a comprehensive coverage of the field, including fundamental aspects, software-, sensors-, and hardware-related issues. Moreover, the contributors to this volume offer, beyond a systematic overview of intelligent interfaces and systems, deep, practical knowledge in building and using intelligent systems in various applications. Special emphasis is placed on specific aspects and requirements in applications. Intelligent Systems and Interfaces is intended to be an essential tool for the scientific community in all areas of applied intelligent technologies. The chapters are written by a selected pool of experts in the field of intelligent systems. The contributors thoroughly review the state of the art, explain the problems to be addressed and show how these problems can be solved. Extensive references are included, offering the reader a perspective on the currently available literature and trends. Intelligent Systems and Interfaces is an important reference on intelligent systems, intended for a large audience. Graduate and postgraduate students in computer science, electronics, micro-technology, robotics, and control theory will benefit from this comprehensive, in-depth study of the topic. Engineers from high-tech industries and researchers involved in the design, manufacturing, and use of intelligent interfaces and systems and of related technologies will find many solutions to research and design problems.

The First Imperial Age: European Overseas Expansion

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Scammell, Geoffrey V. / Scammell, G. / Scammell Geoffr, PUBLISHER: Routledge, The First Imperial Age explores the origins of Europe's rise to world hegemony in the early modern period. After a slow start in the s, the pace of European exploration and discovery quickened dramatically. By the end of the period, Europeans, in pursuit of Asia and the opportunities encountered en route, had determined the outlines of Africa, discovered and partly subjugated the Americans, opened a sea route to the Far East and established themselves in the great maritime economy of Asia. Scammell's detached and skeptical view highlights the ambiguities inherent in these triumphs.
