Digital Integrated Circuit Design: From VLSI Architectures to CMOS Fabrication

Cambridge University Press, 2008

Prepublication quote: '[The top-down] emphasis of the text ... should be right on the money and is very timely.' Joanne DeGroat, Ohio State University

VLSI circuits are ubiquitous in the modern world, and designing them efficiently is becoming increasingly challenging with the development of ever smaller chips. This...

The Economics of Contracts: Theories and Applications

Cambridge University Press, 2002

A comprehensive and up-to-date synthesis of the economic analysis of contracts written by a specially commissioned team of leading international scholars. The book offers a well structured analysis of theoretical developments, the diverse fields of applications, the methodologies in use, and the policy implications at both firm and state level. The...

The Higher Arithmetic: An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers

Cambridge University Press, 2008

'Although this book is not written as a textbook but rather as a work for the general reader, it could certainly be used as a textbook for an undergraduate course in number theory and, in the reviewer's opinion, is far superior for this purpose to any other book in English.' From a review of the first edition in Bulletin of the American...

Liquid Sloshing Dynamics: Theory and Applications

Cambridge University Press, 2005

The problem of liquid sloshing in moving or stationary containers remains of great concern to aerospace, civil, and nuclear engineers; physicists; designers of road tankers and ship tankers; and mathematicians. Beginning with the fundamentals of liquid sloshing theory, this book takes the reader systematically from basic theory to advanced...

Electron Microprobe Analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy in Geology

Cambridge University Press, 2006

The favourable reception given to the first (1996) edition of this book suggests that the joint treatment of electron microprobe analysis (EMPA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with a specifically geological slant has been found to serve a useful purpose. It was therefore decided to proceed with this second, revised and updated,...

Introductory Quantum Optics

Cambridge University Press, 2004

Quantum optics is one of the liveliest fields in physics at present. While it has been a dominant research field for at least two decades, with much graduate activity, in the past few years it has started to impact the undergraduate curriculum. This book developed from courses we have taught to final year undergraduates and beginning graduate...

Integrated Frequency Synthesizers for Wireless Systems

Cambridge University Press, 2007

The increasingly demanding performance requirements of communications systems, as well as problems posed by the continued scaling of silicon technology, present numerous challenges for the design of frequency synthesizers in modern transceivers. This book contains everything you need to know for the efficient design of frequency synthesizers for...

Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles

Cambridge University Press, 2006

Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles discusses hydrodynamic aspects of the three main categories of high-speed marine vehicles, i.e. vessels supported by either the submerged hull, an air cushion or foils. Submerged-hull-supported vessels include planing and semi-displacement vessels. The wave environment, resistance, propulsion,...

UML Xtra-Light: How to Specify Your Software Requirements

Cambridge University Press, 2002

The excellent idea of writing a lightweight book on the Unified Modeling Language (UML) wasn't ours, we admit. This idea originated from Milan's customers. Having taught more than a hundred courses and seminars on omponent approaches to software development and on UML over the past few years, he was repeatedly asked for 'UML made easy' for people...

Next Generation Wireless LANs: Throughput, Robustness, and Reliability in 802.11n

Cambridge University Press, 2008

The first version of the 802.11 standard was ratified in 1997 after seven long years of development. However, initial adoption of this new technology was slow, partly because of the low penetration of devices that needed the “freedom of wireless.”

The real opportunity for 802.11 came with the increased popularity of laptop...

Text-to-Speech Synthesis

Cambridge University Press, 2009

Text-to-Speech Synthesis provides a complete, end-to-end account of the process of generating speech by computer. Giving an in-depth explanation of all aspects of current speech synthesis technology, it assumes no specialized prior knowledge. Introductory chapters on linguistics, phonetics, signal processing and speech signals lay the...

A First Course in String Theory

Cambridge University Press, 2004

An accessible introduction to string theory, this book provides a detailed and self-contained demonstration of the main concepts involved. The first part deals with basic ideas, reviewing special relativity and electromagnetism while introducing the concept of extra dimensions. D-branes and the classical dynamics of relativistic strings are...
