This publication discusses general problems related to the structure of current overload protection systems in high voltage (HV) electrical installations and introduces a family of new devices based on reed switch contacts,

The Internet is so huge and its growth so explosive that it is growing faster than most of us can keep up. Environmental Management Tools on the Internet is your one-stop source

Addresses the major issues involved in computer design and architectures. Dealing primarily with theory, tools, and techniques as related to advanced computer systems, it provides tutorials and surveys and relates new important

The Internet revolution. Once, the public was delighted with 14.4 modem access and fascinated by low-tech Web site content. But not for long. Technology has raced to keep up with users' calls

Over the last fifteen years GIS has become a fully-fledged technology, deployed across a range of application areas. However, although computer advances in performance appear to continue unhindered, data volumes and the

"Examines classic algorithms, geometric diagrams, and mechanical principles for enhances visualization of statistical estimation procedures and mathematical concepts in physics, engineering, and computer programming."

Describing non-parametric and parametric theoretic classification and the training of discriminant functions, this second edition includes new and expanded sections on neural networks, Fisher's discriminant, wavelet transform, and the method of principal

This text focuses on the ways in which GIS could be made multi dimensional, based on modelling limitations of current two-dimensional GIS. It suggests extending GIS to incorporate the third dimension 3D

Bringing a fresh new perspective to remote sensing, object-based image analysis is a paradigm shift from the traditional pixel-based approach. Featuring various practical examples to provide understanding of this new modus operandi,

EDHF 2000 comprises the proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Endothelium-dependent Hyperpolarizations. These proceedings focus on the role of gap junctions in cardiovascular responses and investigate the chemical identity of EDHF.
