Alexander Graham Bell: Making Connections
Alexander Graham Bell: Making Connections# Language: English
# ISBN-10: 0195099087
# ISBN-13: 978-0195099089
This extremely useful book concentrates more on Bell's work as an educator and inventor
than on his personal life. Two-to-three page inserts explain the various scientific principles
discussed in the main text. For example, Bell was intensely involved in teaching the deaf.
As this part of his life is discussed, an insert explains sound, speech, and hearing, and how
all three are intertwined. Glimpses of the man behind the scientist are given in a lively, yet
informative fashion. Black-and-white photos and reproductions enhance the presentation
and bring the personal details to life. Although there are many books on Bell available, this
one is a worthy addition to any collection.

Intelligent Systems and Signal Processing in Power Engineering
Abhisek Ukil, "Intelligent Systems and Signal Processing in Power Engineering (Power Systems)"Publisher: Springer | Pages: 372 | 2007-11-16 | ISBN: 3540731695 | PDF | 9 MB
Power engineering has become a multidisciplinary field ranging from linear algebra, electronics, signal processing to artificial intelligence including recent trends like bio-inspired computation, lateral computing and so on. In this book, Ukil builds the bridge between these inter-disciplinary power engineering practices. The book looks into two major fields used in modern power systems: intelligent systems and the signal processing.
The intelligent systems section comprises of fuzzy logic, neural network and support vector machine. The author looks at relevant theories on the topics without assuming much particular background. Following the theoretical basics, he studies their applications in various problems in power engineering, like, load forecasting, phase balancing, or disturbance analysis. These application studies are of two types: full application studies explained like in-depth case-studies, and semi-developed application ideas with scope for further extension. This is followed by pointers to further research information.
In the second part, the book leads into the signal processing from the basics of the system theory, followed by fundamentals of different signal processing transforms with examples. A section follows about the sampling technique and the digital filters which are the ultimate processing tools. The theoretical basics are substantiated by some of the applications in power engineering, both in-depth and semi-developed as before. This also ends up with pointers to further research information.
'Intelligent Systems and Signal Processing in Power Engineering' is helpful for students, researchers and engineers, trying to solve power engineering problems using intelligent systems and signal processing, or seeking applications of intelligent systems and signal processing in power engineering.

Stochastic Modeling of Manufacturing Systems: Advances in Design, Performance Evaluation, and Control Issues
Stochastic Modeling of Manufacturing SystemsSpringer | 2005-09-06 | ISBN: 3540265791 | 363 pages | PDF | 3,7 MB
Manufacturing systems rarely perform exactly as expected and predicted. Unexpected events, such as order changes, equipment failures and product defects, affect the performance of the system and complicate decision-making. This volume is devoted to the development of analytical methods aiming at responding to variability in a way that limits its corrupting effects on system performance.
The book includes fifteen novel chapters that mostly focus on the development and analysis of performance evaluation models of manufacturing systems using decomposition-based methods, Markovian and queuing analysis, simulation, and inventory control approaches. They are organized into four distinct sections to reflect their shared viewpoints: factory design, unreliable production lines, queuing network models, production planning and assembly.
