Modern embedded systems require high performance, low cost and low power consumption. Such systems typically consist of a heterogeneous collection of processors, specialized memory subsystems, and partially programmable or fixed-function components. This book describes debugging and verification met[...]
UML, the Universal Modeling Language, was the first programming language designed to fulfill the requirement for "universality." However, it is a software-specific language, and does not support the needs of engineers designing from the broader systems-based perspective. Therefore, SysML was created[...]
Treats the different physico-chemical and surface-thermodynamic properties of water that govern all polar interactions occurring in it. This book explains and allows the quantitative measurement of hydrophobic attraction and hydrophilic repulsion in water. It also discusses the influence of temperat[...]

Networks, systems, and data join the financial markets into a single interrelated environment that processes millions of transactions in real time. This title investigates the interconnected nature of financial markets by examining networks, systems, and data in turn.[...]
Every major enterprise has tangled IT architectures that result from decades of patches and failed replacements. Most of these systems were designed to support business architectures that have changed dramatically. At best, these systems hinder agility and competitiveness and, at worst, can bring cr[...]
In this practical guide, globally recognized renewable energy researcher and professor Henrik Lund describes the modeling and simulation techniques that can be utilised to ensure at the outset of any renewable energy project that the resources available will meet supply demands. A clear, comprehensi[...]
Is your memory hierarchy stopping your microprocessor from performing at the high level it should be? This book shows you how to resolve this problem. It helps you tackle the optimization problems that result from the side-effects that can appear at any point in the entire hierarchy.[...]
Used to clean the borehole, stabilize rock, control pressures, or enhance drilling rates, drilling fluids and their circulation systems are used in all phases of a drilling operation. These systems are highly dynamic and complicated to model until now. Written by an author with over 25 years of expe[...]
Hirsch, Devaney, and Smale's classic "Differential Equations, Dynamical Systems, and an Introduction to Chaos" has been used by professors as the primary text for undergraduate and graduate level courses covering differential equations. It provides a theoretical approach to dynamical systems and cha[...]
"This book fills a void. Most books address only portions of the embedded problem. As the title indicates, this one is uniquely comprehensive. I consider it a must-read" (Review of the 1st Edition). Jack Ganssle, embedded author, lecturer, consultant. Embedded Systems Architecture is a practical and[...]
