Social navigation is a vibrant new field which examines how we navigate information spaces in "e;real"e; and "e;virtual"e; environments, how we orient and guide ourselves, and how we interact with and use others to find our way in information spaces.
This book of Proceedings contains papers of the "e;Third European Workshop on Mobile/Personal Satcoms"e; (EMPS '98), held in Venice, Italy, November 1998.
A revised and updated translation of the French original, this work deals effectively with local area network technologies and management, offering a broad overview of enterprise telecommunication technologies.
Semiconductor device modelling has developed in recent years from being solely the domain of device physicists to span broader technological disciplines involved in device and electronic circuit design and develop- ment.
This publication deals with the application of advanced digital signal processing techniques and neural networks to various telecommunication problems.
Pseudorandom sequences have widespread applications, for instance, in spread spectrum, code division multiple access, optical and ultrawide band communication systems, as well as in ranging systems global positioning systems, circuit testing and stream ciphers.
Mobile phones are the most successful computer-based consumer product of the age and yet very little is known about how mobile technology is changing the way people interact and cooperate with each other, and how this change can be analysed.
Reliability of Optical Fibres and Components reports the findings of COST 246 (1993-1998) - European research initiative in the field of optical telecommunications.
The new information services provided worldwide through the Internet are fostering the upgrade of existing access and transmission plants, and the de- ployment of new ones.
A feature is a small modification or extension of a system which can be seen as having a self-contained functional role, such as Call Forwarding, Automatic Call back and Voice Mail in telephone services, to which users can subscribe.
Consisting of selected technical contributions to the European Project COST252 (Evolution of Satellite Personal Communications from 2nd to Future Generation Systems) this volume provides many innovative results which can be the basis for new global (mobile /terrestrial/satellite) telecommunications systems providing multimedia services at high rates.
Soft computing embraces various methodologies for the development of intelligent systems that have been successfully applied to a large number of real-world problems.
Although the computing demands of real-time signal processing and control applications are increasing rapidly, parallel processors permit several instructions to be dealt with simultaneously so that the "e;real-time"e; needed is manageable.
This second edition contains a collection of technical abbreviations, acronyms, and identifiers (in short 'terms') that are used in information and communi- cation technologies and other related areas.
This proceedings book offers a refined and comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge advancements in communication networks, computational intelligence, and smart applications, seamlessly blending theoretical insights with practical solutions.
This book focuses on the design of low-complexity iterative receivers in high spectral efficiency communication systems, especially under frequency-selective fading channels.
This book explores wireless communication elements, focusing on mm and THz wave generation, specifications, material innovations, machine learning integration, and applications.
This book delves deep into the world of low-power Internet of Things (IoT) node positioning, in an era where IoT is revolutionizing connectivity and communication.
The management of technical plants for productivity and safety is generally a complex activity, particularly when many plants in one territory are affected, quality guarantees and cost results are required, and the technology involved is heterogeneous and innovative.
The safe management of the complex distributed systems and critical infrastructures which constitute the backbone of modern industry and society entails identifying and quantifying their vulnerabilities to design adequate protection, mitigation, and emergency action against failure.
Engineering Asset Management 2010 represents state-of-the art trends and developments in the emerging field of engineering asset management as presented at the Fifth World Congress on Engineering Asset Management (WCEAM).
