Design of Analog Fuzzy Logic Controllers in CMOS Technologies: Implementation, Test and Application by Carlos Dualibe
English | PDF | 2003 | 220 Pages | ISBN : 1402073593 | 18 MB
Nowadays, real-time applications of Fuzzy Logic in different domains are being increasingly reported. ASIC-based analog hardware becomes an interesting solution for these kinds of applications because it benefits from: savings on silicon surface and power consumption, readily accomplishment with strict timing constraints and cost-effective production. This book focuses in-depth on the VLSI CMOS implementation and application of programmable analog Fuzzy Logic Controllers following a mixed-signal philosophy. This is to say, signals are processed in the analog domain whereas programmability is achieved by means of standard digital memories.
Design for Ergonomics by Francesca Tosi
English | EPUB | 2020 | 379 Pages | ISBN : 3030335615 | 107.5 MB
This book focuses on the global quality of the design of systems that people interact with during their work activities and daily lives; a quality that involves the globality of people's experience - physical, sensory, cognitive and emotional. It presents a concise and structured overview of the ergonomic approach to planning, and of methodological and operational tools from ergonomic research that can more directly and concretely contribute to the design process.
Carlos Bergmann, Aisha Stumpf, "Dental Ceramics: Microstructure, Properties and Degradation"
English | 2013 | ISBN: 3642382231 | PDF | pages: 91 | 4.5 mb
This book gives an introduction to themechanical behavior and degradation of dental ceramics and guides the reader through their performance under effect of oral environments. It addresses the different kinds of dental ceramics, their properties, degradation and mechanical aspects with less emphasys on the physics and chemistry involved, which makes the reading interesting for beginners in the field. In each chapter, the reader will learn about the mechanical behavior of dental ceramics and each phenomenon involved in their application, besides finding some practical examples of their use in dental clinics, their manufacturing procedures and types of degradation. The clear language and the application-oriented perspective of the book makes it suitable for both professionals and students who want to learn about dental ceramics.

Database Systems: A Pragmatic Approach, 3rd edition
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1032217324 | 622 Pages | PDF (True) | 117 MB
This book provides a concise but comprehensive guide to the disciplines of database design, construction, implementation, and management. Based on the authors' professional experience in the software engineering and IT industries before making a career switch to academia, the text stresses sound database design as a necessary precursor to successful development and administration of database systems. The discipline of database systems design and management is discussed within the context of the bigger picture of software engineering. Students are led to understand from the outset of the text that a database is a critical component of a software infrastructure, and that proper database design and management is integral to the success of a software system. Additionally, students are led to appreciate the huge value of a properly designed database to the success of a business enterprise.
