Grid Resource Management: Towards virtual and services

A basic text covering the physical phenomena involved in electronic conduction; ways in which these phenomena combine to govern the characteristics, ratings, and limitations of electronic devices; and applications of electronics to the various branches of electrical engineering.

In the heat of battle, a split second can be all the time a military commander has to give orders. Information fusion technology enables commanders to lead decisively and confidently during active conflict. Masses of live information are instantaneously integrated to create a coherent and precise picture of a rapidly evolving situation.

This outstanding new book reveals through a series of case studies how modern digital photogrammetry is capable of providing dense and accurate spatial data to solve a wide range of contemporary measurement problems, and at a diverse range of scales.

When GPS (global positioning system) was made commercially available in the year 2000, it launched a new era of satellite navigation services and technologies as dramatic as a spacecraft launch itself.

Numerical simulation is essential to electrical engineers working in antenna design, wireless communications, optical systems, and a host of other areas. This new applications-focused book provides engineers with state-of-the-art methods for predicting simulation accuracy, worked-out results for dozens of real-world problems, the latest accuracy-improving techniques, and detailed guidance for all parameters required to optimize numerical simulations.
