Vision in 3D Environments

Cambridge University Press, 2011

Seeing in 3D is a fundamental problem for anyorganism or device that has to operate in the real world.

So how do we see in...

Emerging Wireless Technologies and the Future Mobile Internet

Cambridge University Press, 2011

The current Internet is an outgrowth of the ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network) that was initiated four decades ago. The TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) designed by Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn in 1973 did not anticipate, quite understandably, such extensive use of wireless channels and...
