Wireless Networks: Multiuser Detection in Cross-Layer Design 202 pages | Springer; 1 edition (April 13, 2005) | ISBN: 038723697X | PDF | 8 Mb
Cross-layer design seeks to enhance the capacity of wireless networks significantly through the joint optimization of multiple layers in the network, primarily the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers. Although there are advantages of such design in wireline networks as well, this approach is particularly advantageous for wireless networks due to the properties (such as mobility and interference) that strongly affect performance and design of higher layer protocols.
This unique monograph is concerned with the issue of cross-layer design in wireless networks, and more particularly with the impact of node-level multiuser detection on such design. It provides an introduction to this vibrant and active research area insufficiently covered in existing literature, presenting some of the principal methods developed and results obtained to date. Accompanied by numerous illustrations, the text is an excellent reference for engineers, researchers and students working in communication networks.

Russell A. Jones “NET Programming 10-Minute Solutions " Sybex; 1 edition (November 6, 2003) | ISBN: 0782142532 | 400 pages | PDF | 3,2 MB
These ten-minute solutions fill the gaps in your knowledge: from them, you’ll learn a lot about the realities of programming with .NET technologies, whether you’re writing database applications, web applications, or desktop applications.
But they’re also solutions to the problems you’re most likely to encounter in each of these areas. Particularly when a project entails new techniques or draws you into a realm outside your expertise, you need quick and reliable answers. Here, a couple of veterans provide them. Based on the popular question-and-answer feature of the DevX website, all are in-depth, code-intensive solutions that explain both the how and the why, helping you past immediate obstacles and ultimately making you a more knowledgeable programmer. Here are some of the solutions you’ll find inside:
The new ListBox control's data model: how it differs, how to work with it, why it’s better
The new I/O model: storing and retrieving complete objects with streams
Launching and monitoring external programs from VB.NET applications: the Process class and how it improves on classic VB Shell command
ADO.NET support for keeping calculated columns up to date automatically
Moving data between distributed tiers—and keeping it synchronized—using DiffGrams
Solutions are organized into three categories: general .NET topics that cut across category boundaries, problems that arise when you’re building Windows forms, and issues associated specifically with ADO.NET and ASP.NET programming chores. The book contains VB.NET code examples for every solution.

If you want to increase employee motivation in your company, don't try to fix your workers, fix your organization. Most motivation initiatives treat motivation as a problem of the individual employee and try to inspire them to work harder. The better strategy, says author Dean R. Spitzer, is to do something to change the work conditions that de-motivate employees.

Breakaway Planning: 8 Big Questions to Guide Organizational Change Publisher: AMACOM | 272 pages | 1998-10-20 | 081440426X | PDF | 4,5 Mb
BREAKAWAY PLANNING 8 Big Questions to Guide Organizational One of the most pervasive myths surrounding a big organizational change is that planning for it is difficult, painful, even impossible. The results of that myth are spotty planning-and dismal results. In reality, planning is easy, painless-and absolutely essential to achieve smooth, successful transformational change. And Breakaway Planning is the roadmap for making that happen. With lively language, clear instructions, and valuable exercises, the book walks readers through the entire planning process, from creating a compelling vision to making that vision a reality. At the heart of Breakaway Planning are eight important questions that, when answered, ensure the plan is airtight and ready to go. Questions include: How do we spread the word internally? How will we make things better for employees? How do we measure success? With Breakaway Planning a company can plan to succeed -- the most crucial step to actually achieving success. PAUL LEVESQUE (Chestnut Ridge, NY) has served as an executive consultant for Zenger-Miller, Inc.

Future Imperfect: Technology and Freedom in an Uncertain World Publisher: Cambridge University Press | 300 pages | 2008-07-21 | 0521877326 | PDF | 1,5 Mb Future Imperfect describes and discusses a variety of technological revolutions that might happen over the next few decades, their implications, and how to deal with them. Topics range from encryption and surveillance through biotechnology and nanotechnology to life extension, mind drugs, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence. One theme of the book is that the future is radically uncertain. Technological changes already begun could lead to more or less privacy than we have ever known, freedom or slavery, effective immortality or the elimination of our species, and radical changes in life, marriage, law, medicine, work, and play. We do not know which future will arrive, but it is unlikely to be much like the past. It is worth starting to think about it now.

Topics covered include visual (self) recognition, style, media understanding, inhibition, executive attention, priming, memory, meaning, and figural and spatial concepts. The effects of biological constraints such as motor control, grip and handedness, blindness, neuropsychological conditions and old age are also explained. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life-span and productivity of the non-verbal, visual mind.

Brain, Behavior, and Learning in Language and Reading Disorders Publisher: The Guilford Press | 400 pages | 2008-07-30 | 1593858310 | PDF | 2,5 Mb
Grounded in cutting-edge research on brain–behavior relationships, this book explores how language and reading disorders develop--and presents exciting new approaches to examining and treating them. Experts from multiple disciplines investigate how children's learning trajectories in spoken and written language are shaped by the dynamic interplay of neurobiological, experiential, and behavioral processes. The volume includes innovative neuroimaging applications and other state-of-the-science techniques that help shed new light on childhood disorders such as dyslexia, language impairment, writing disabilities, and autism. Implications for evidence-based diagnosis, intervention, and instruction are discussed. Illustrations include five color plates.
