Attaining High Performance CommunicationsA Vertical ApproachEdited by

Ada GavrilovskaGeorgia Tech, Atlanta, USA

Languages such as C and Java foster the belief that programmers need only address problems at the highest levels of a program’s operation. Yet, even modern coding requires an understanding of basic assembly methods such as those gained by learning ARM, as the hardware responsible for today’s coprocessors or for saturated math operations can be accessed only through its native instructions. Written by the director of ARM’s worldwide academic program, this volume examines code relevant to today’s microcontrollers. Examples show students how to optimize routines and streamline coding, especially in the embedded space. The book provides access to a functional evaluation version of the RealView Microcontroller Development Kit from Keil.

Robot Programming by DemonstrationA Probablistic ApproachSylvain CalinonLearning Algorithms and Systems Laboratory, Switzerland

Robot Programming by Demonstration (RbD) explores user-friendly means of teaching new skills to robots. Recent advances in RbD have identified a number of key issues for ensuring a generic approach to the transfer of skills across various agents and contexts. This book focuses on the two questions of what to imitate and how to imitate, which are concerned, respectively, with the problem of the extraction of the essential features of a task and the determining of a way to reproduce these essential features in different situations. The book proposes active teaching methods that places the teacher “in the loop” of the robots’ learning.

This text provides a self-contained, “no frills,” mathematically rigorous derivation from first principles of all basic Kalman filter recursions. This approach relies on a pared-down version of more general state-space models found most often in the literature. Such simplification saves notational complexity without sacrificing conceptual understanding. The rigor found in the book ensures a fundamental understanding of how the Kalman filter actually works, which builds confidence for those employing the filter in their research and writing code to implement it in practice. The author provides implementations of the Kalman filter in Java available for download from his website.

Modern Predictive ControlDing Bao-CangChongqing University, China

Model predictive control (MPC) differs from other control methods mainly in its implementation of a control action. Usually, MPC solves a finite-horizon optimal control problem at each sampling instant, so that the control actions for the current and a period of future time are obtained. However, only the current control move is applied to the plant. This work explains how this useful model permits the flexibility of acting while optimizing. It details a variety of models for one- and two-step control, explains state feedback synthesis approaches with and without a finite switching horizon, and explores open- and closed-loop optimization and output feedback synthesis approaches.

Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis in Engineering and the SciencesBilal M. AyyubUniversity of Maryland, College Park, USA

George J. KlirState University of New York at Binghamton, USA

Many of the problems that engineers face involve randomly varying phenomena of one sort or another. But if characterized properly, even such randomness and the resulting uncertainty are subject to rigorous mathematical analysis. This book provides students with a fundamental understanding of random phenomena and a working knowledge of how to model and analyze such phenomena. Basing his approach on the principle of theoretical foundations before application, Dr. Ogunnaike presents a classroom-tested course of study for using probability and statistics appropriately to deal with uncertainty in engineering problems, helping students understand, characterize, and quantify randomly varying phenomena.

Producers of printed handbooks, textbooks, tutorials, and field guides, as well ase-books, online libraries, and interactive databases, CRC Press is a full service print and electronic publishercommitted to recording the accomplishments and supporting the work of the world’s leading practitionersand researchers.

It’s no coincidence that many of the issues in today’s headlines read like a list of CRC new releases… fromfive or even ten years ago. Just as it’s never been a coincidence that the fields of inquiry our authors pursuetoday often bear the greatest fruit tomorrow.
