Systematic Design of Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Converters

Systematic Design of Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Converters by Ovidiu Bajdechi , Johan H. Huijsing
English | PDF | 2004 | 203 Pages | ISBN : 1402079451 | 17.6 MB

Systematic Design of Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Converters describes the issues related to the sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) design in a systematic manner: from the top level of abstraction represented by the filters defining signal and noise transfer functions (STF, NTF), passing through the architecture level where topology-related performance is calculated and simulated, and finally down to parameters of circuit elements like resistors, capacitors, and amplifier transconductances used in individual integrators. The systematic approach allows the evaluation of different loop filters (order, aggressiveness, discrete-time or continuous-time implementation) with quantizers varying in resolution. Topologies explored range from simple single loops to multiple cascaded loops with complex structures including more feedbacks and feedforwards. For differential circuits, with switched-capacitor integrators for discrete-time (DT) loop filters and active-RC for continuous-time (CT) ones, the passive integrator components are calculated and the power consumption is estimated, based on top-level requirements like harmonic distortion and noise budget.

Privacy, Security and Trust within the Context of Pervasive Computing (Repost)

Privacy, Security and Trust within the Context of Pervasive Computing by Philip Robinson, Harald Vogt, Waleed Wagealla
English | PDF | 2005 | 167 Pages | ISBN : 0387234616 | 9 MB

Privacy, Security and Trust within the Context of Pervasive Computing is an edited volume based on a post workshop at the second international conference on Pervasive Computing. The workshop was held April18-23, 2004, in Vienna, Austria.The goal of the workshop was not to focus on specific, even novel mechanisms, but rather on the interfaces between mechanisms in different technical and social problem spaces. An investigation of the interfaces between the notions of context, privacy, security, and trust will result in a deeper understanding of the "atomic" problems, leading to a more complete understanding of the social and technical issues in pervasive computing.

Understanding Agent Systems

Understanding Agent Systems by Mark d’Inverno , Michael Luck
English | PDF | 2004 | 249 Pages | ISBN : 3540407006 | 22.4 MB

Since the first edition was published two years ago, much has been done on extend­ ing the work done on SMART to address new and important areas [3-5,54,79,80, 108-110,116,118-120,122]. In this second edition, we have revised, updated and corrected the existing text and added three new chapters. These chapters provide a broader coverage of the fie1d of agents, and show in more detail how the specific framework described can be used to examine other areas. In Chapter 6, we use the concepts of discovery to apply the framework to autonomous interaction in multi­ agent systems; in Chapter 10 we use it for considering normative agents and sys­ tems; and in Chapter 11 we describe work on an implementation and development environment.

Multiagent Systems for Manufacturing Control: A Design Methodology

Multiagent Systems for Manufacturing Control: A Design Methodology by Stefan Bussmann , Nicholas R. Jennings , Michael Wooldridge
English | PDF | 2004 | 298 Pages | ISBN : 3540209247 | 28 MB

The ability of production companies to rapidly develop and deploy effective and efficient control systems is critical for success in the consumer-driven environment of contemporary manufacturing. This book presents a novel approach to the design of manufacturing control systems, based around the idea of agents, semiautonomous decision makers that cooperate to process goods and meet orders. This new methodology is DACS – Designing Agent-based Control Systems.

Distributed Infrastructure Support for Electronic Commerce Applications

Distributed Infrastructure Support for Electronic Commerce Applications by Hans-Arno Jacobsen
English | PDF | 2004 | 184 Pages | ISBN : 1402076487 | 16.9 MB

Distributed Infrastructure Support For E-Commerce And Distributed Applications is organized in three parts. The first part constitutes an overview, a more detailed motivation of the problem context, and a tutorial-like introduction to middleware systems. The second part is comprised of a set of chapters that study solutions to leverage the trade-off between a transparent programming model and application-level enabled resource control. The third part of this book presents three detailed distributed application case studies and demonstrates how standard middleware platforms fail to adequately cope with resource control needs of the application designer in these three cases:

Storage Networks

Storage Networks by Daniel J. Worden
English | PDF | 2004 | 306 Pages | ISBN : 1590592980 | 31.1 MB

Storage Networks will appeal to any systems administrator, architect, or manager with large data resources to manage, rather than being based on a specific vendor offering. This book stresses the application of the technology to non-traditional IT buyers such as video and music production studios and medical diagnostic imaging technicians. With the rapid adoption of digital processing for images and sound, storage networks have a great use outside of the data center. At the same time, the benefits of recoverability, performance, and manageability will benefit any storage network user. This book appeals to both sets of readers.

Algorithmics for Hard Problems

Algorithmics for Hard Problems: Introduction to Combinatorial Optimization, Randomization, Approximation, and Heuristics by Juraj Hromkovič
English | PDF | 2004 | 547 Pages | ISBN : 3540441344 | 45.3 MB

Algorithmic design, especially for hard problems, is more essential for success in solving them than any standard improvement of current computer tech­ nologies. Because of this, the design of algorithms for solving hard problems is the core of current algorithmic research from the theoretical point of view as well as from the practical point of view. There are many general text books on algorithmics, and several specialized books devoted to particular approaches such as local search, randomization, approximation algorithms, or heuristics.

This book presents the intersection of two dynamic fields: Reinforcement Learning (RL) and RIS- Assisted Wireless Communications. With an emphasis on both discrete and continuous problems, it introduces a comprehensive overview of RL techniques and their applications in the evolving world of RIS-assisted wireless communications. Chapter 1 introduces the fundamentals of RL and deep RL (DRL), providing a solid foundation for understanding subsequent chapters. It also presents the Q-learning, deep Q-learning, and deep deterministic policy gradient algorithms. Chapter 2 provides a holistic overview of RIS-assisted systems and details several use cases in wireless communications. Then, Chapters 3 and 4 present various applications of the discrete and continuous DRL to RIS-assisted wireless communications. From maximizing the sum-rate to minimizing, the system resources and maximizing the energy efficiency. These chapters showcase the versatility of the DRL algorithms in tackling a range of challenges. This book concludes with Chapter 5, which introduces the challenges and future directions in this field. It explores the particulars of hyperparameter tuning, problem design, and complexity analysis, while also highlighting the potential of hybrid DRL, multi-agent DRL, and transfer learning techniques for advancing wireless communication systems.
