Rapid Prototyping of Digital Systems : SOPC ed.
RAPID PROTOTYPING OF DIGITAL SYSTEMS provides an exciting and challenging environment for rapidly adapting System-on-a-Programmable Chip (SOPC) technology to existing designs or integrating the new design methods into a laboratory component for digital logic, computer and embedded-design curriculums. New to this edition is an introduction to embedded operating systems for SOPC designs. Featuring four accelerated tutorials on the Quartus II and Nios II design environments, this edition progresses from introductory programmable logic to full-scale SOPC design seamlessly integrating hardware implementation, software development, operating system support, state-of-the-art I/O, and IP cores.

Rapid Integration of Software Engineering Techniques ; Vol. 3475 : 1st International Workshop, RISE 2004, Luxembourg-Kirchberg, Luxembourg, November 26, 2004, Revised Selected Papers
This paper reports on the experiences of integrating several Software Engineering techniques by the Rapid Prototyping group of Siemens Corporate Research. This experience was gained during our recent project that involved developing a web-based, workflow-driven information system. The techniques integrated for this project included agile and iterative processes, user centered design, requirements discovery and maturation, and test-driven development. These techniques were integrated and supported by a proprietary process entitled “Siemens Rapid Prototyping” (S-RaP), a software architecture, and project management techniques. This paper will detail the specific characteristics of S-RaP, the software architecture, and the project management techniques that supported the integration of the above listed software engineering techniques. We will also report on our experience with their effectiveness and our thoughts on future enhancements in all three areas
Rapid integration of software engineering techniques ; 3rd International Workshop, RISE 2006, Geneva, Switzerland, September 13-15, 2006. Revised Selected Papers
RISE 2006 constituted an international forum for researchers and practitioners interested in the advancement and rapid application of novel, integrated, or pratical software engineering approaches, being part of a methodological framework, that apply to the development of either new or evolving applications and s- tems.
Randomized Algorithms for Analysis and Control of Uncertain Systems
The main objective of this book is to introduce the reader to the fundamentals of probabilistic methods in the analysis and design of uncertain systems. Using so-called "randomized algorithms", this emerging area of research guarantees a reduction in the computational complexity of classical robust control algorithms and in the conservativeness of methods like H-infinity control.
Railway steel structures : Fabrication and erection
Covers the basics of fabrication of railway steel structures. It covers the various types of steels, steel sections and structures involved along with fabrication methods. Further, some basics of design, handling and launching of fabricated components are covered including case studies covering the consequences of errors or shortcuts adopted during fabrication.
Railway ecology
The book is divided into two major parts: Part one offers a general review of the major conceptual and theoretical principles of railway ecology. The chapters consider the impacts of railways on wildlife populations and concentrate on four major topics: mortality, barrier effects, species invasions and disturbances (ranging from noise to chemical pollution). Part two focuses on a number of case studies from Europe, Asia and North America written by an international group of experts.
Radio Wave Propagation for Telecommunication Applications
This book describes the physical mechanisms involved in the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the radiofrequency range, inside and outside buildings, in the terrestrial and near space environments, with a special focus on mobile radio communication.
Radio Wave Propagation : An Introduction for the Non-Specialist
This work treats the essential elements of radio wave propagation without requiring recourse to advanced electromagnetic concepts and equations; however it provides sufficient detail to allow those concerned with wireless systems to acquire quickly a practical working knowledge of the important concepts. The material is based on a single semester overview course suitable for later year undergraduate students in engineering or science.
Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits and Technologies ; 2nd ed.
The operation frequencies, bandwidths and data capacities of communications systems are continuously increasing by employing advanced technologies and aggressive scaling of device dimensions. However, the restrictions inherent in scaling make the design of radio frequency integrated circuits a demanding task. To meet the corresponding challenges designers must provide profound skills in several areas including circuit theory, silicon and compound semiconductor technologies, communications standards, system design, measurement techniques, etc. The book aims at addressing all these multidisciplinary issues in a compact and comprehensive form and in a single volume. Suitable for students, engineers and scientists, the manuscript offers the necessary theoretical background together with cookbook-like optimisation strategies and state-of-the-art design examples."

Radio Design in Nanometer Technologies
The book is the first volume that looks at the integrated radio design problem as a "piece of a big puzzle", namely the entire chipset or single chip that builds an entire wireless system. This is the only way to successfully design radios to meet the stringent demands of today’s increasingly complex wireless systems.
Radiative Decay Engineering
During recent years our enthusiasm for Radiative Decay Engineering (RDE) has continually increased. Many of the early predictions have been confirmed experimentally. We see numerous applications for RDE in biotechnology, clinical assays and analytical chemistry. While implementation of RDE is relatively simple, understanding the principles of RDE is difficult. The concepts are widely distributed in the optics and chemical physics literature, often described in terms difficult to understand by biophysical scientists..RDE includes chapters from the experts who have studied metal particle optics and fluorophore-metal interactions. This collection describes the fundamental principles for the widespread use of radiative decay engineering in the biological sciences and nanotechnology
Radiation Physics for Medical Physicists
Summarizes the radiation physics knowledge that professionals working in medical physics need to master for efficient and safe dealings with ionizing radiation. It contains eight chapters, each chapter covering a specific group of subjects related to radiation physics and is intended as a textbook for a course in radiation physics in medical-physics graduate programs. However, the book may also be of interest to the large number of professionals, not only medical physicists, who in their daily occupations deal with various aspects of medical physics and find a need to improve their understanding of radiation physics.
Radiation Oncology : A Physicists-Eye View
Presentations cover, in largely non-technical language, the principal physical and biological aspects of radiation treatment and address practical clinical considerations in planning and delivering therapy. The importance of the assessment of uncertainties is emphasized. Topics include: an overview of the physics of the interactions of radiation with matter; the definition of the goals and the design of radiation therapy approaches; living with uncertainty; biophysical models of radiation damage; computer-based optimization of treatments; and proton therapy. Formulae and quantitation in general have been avoided in the belief that an understanding of the majority of important medical and biological issues in radiation oncology generally cannot be achieved through mathematical relationships.
Radiation Effects on Embedded Systems
Radiation Effects on Embedded Systems aims at providing the reader with the major guidelines for coping with radiation effects on components supposed to be included in today’s applications devoted to operate in space, but also in the atmosphere at high altitude or at ground level. It contains a set of chapters based on the tutorials presented at the International School on Effects of Radiation on Embedded Systems for Space Applications (SERESSA) that was held in Manaus, Brazil, from 20 to 25 November 2005. This book will provide all IC engineers with useful information regarding outside (environmental) influences on their designs and is an excellent reference.
