Discrete-time Signals and Systems - An Operator Approach

Author(s): Sanjoy Mahajan and Dennis Freeman, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Publication Date: 2009

Excerpts from the Preface:

Quote:
This book aims to introduce you to a powerful tool for analyzing and designing systems – whether electronic, mechanical, or thermal. This book grew out of the "Signals and Systems" course (numbered 6.003) that we have taught on and off to MIT's Electrical Engineering and Computer Science students.

The traditional signals-and-systems course – for example [17] – emphasizes the analysis of continuous-time systems, in particular analog circuits. However, most engineers will not specialize in analog circuits. Rather, digital technology offers such vast computing power that analogy circuits are often designed through digital simulation.

Digital simulation is an inherently discrete-time operation. Furthermore, almost all fundamental ideas of signals and systems can be taught using discrete-time systems. Modularity and multiple representations , for example, aid the design of discrete-time (or continuous-time) systems. Similarly, the ideas for modes, poles, control, and feedback.

Furthermore, by teaching the material in a context not limited to circuits, we emphasize the generality of these tools. Feedback and simulation abound in the natural and engineered world, and we would like our students to be flexible and creative in understanding and designing these systems. Therefore, we begin our "Signals and Systems" course with discrete-time systems, and give our students this book. A fundamental difference from most discussions of discrete-time systems is the approach using operators. Operators make it possible to avoid the confusing notion of "transform". Instead, the operator expression for a discrete-time system, and the system's impulse response are two representations for the same system; they are the coordinates of a point as seen from two different coordinate systems. Then a transformation of a system has an active meaning: for example, composing two systems to build a new system.

iPad iOS 4 App development Essentials - Xcode 4 Edition

Author : Neil Smyth
Publication Date : May 2011

Excerpts from the Introduction:

Neil Smyth wrote:
In 2011 Gartner, a respected technology analysis and research company predicted that sales growth for personal computers would fall from 15.9% growth down to a much lower 10.5%. This decline is particularly significant when taking into consideration that the global economy was in the process of emerging from the worst recession since the 1930s, a period during which growth rates would logically be expected to increase. This predicted decline in PC sales growth has been largely attributed to the surge in popularity of tablet based computers.

The concept of a tablet computer is nothing new. Microsoft, for example, has been talking about tablet computers for many years and has even made a few, largely unsuccessful, forays into the market. The single event that triggered this market shift was the introduction of the iPad in April 2010. Within the first year Apple sold 15 million first generation iPad units. The iPad 2 shipped in March 2011 and was sold out within the first weekend of sales in each of the countries in which it was launched. The tablet market will, of course, not be left entirely to Apple. At the CES 2011 trade show in Las Vegas approximately 70 new tablet computers were previewed, many of which were expected to reach the market within the following 12 months. The fact remains, however, that if not for the success of the iPad few, if any, of these tablets would even have been created. More importantly, none of these tablets will be running iOS (most will run the Honeycomb release of Google's Android OS) and, perhaps most significantly, none will be part of Apple’s formidable ecosystem.

When developing for the iPad it is important to understand that you are not just targeting a hardware device. In essence you are leveraging an entire ecosystem consisting of the device hardware, the iOS operating system, software development kit (SDK), iTunes platform and, perhaps most importantly, the App Store. No longer is the success of a mobile device platform a matter of simply the operating system and hardware. Instead, a platform will succeed or fail based on the ecosystem to which it belongs. Google's understanding of the importance of the applications market, for example, has contributed significantly to the success of Android based devices. Conversely Nokia’s failure to create a successful ecosystem was cited by CEO Stephen Elop as a contributing factor to the demise of the Symbian operating system and the company’s move to Microsoft’s Windows Phone platform for future Nokia smartphones.

Gartner expects 69.5 million tablets to be sold in 2011. A significant portion of these sales are expected to be iPads and predictions of iPad sales in 2012 range from 30 – 40 million units. Without doubt, by choosing to develop for the iPad you are tapping into a vast market of potential customers for your iPad app. It is our intention that this book provide the knowledge you need to start building that app.

Generalized Low-Voltage Circuit Techniques for Very High-Speed Time-Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converters

Sai-Weng Sin, Seng-Pan U, and Rui Paulo Martins, "Generalized Low-Voltage Circuit Techniques for Very High-Speed Time-Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converters"
S,,,ger | 2010 | ISBN: 9048197090 | 150 pages | PDF | 5,5 MB

Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) play an important role in most modern signal processing and wireless communication systems where extensive signal manipulation is necessary to be performed by complicated digital signal processing (DSP) circuitry. This trend also creates the possibility of fabricating all functional blocks of a system in a single chip (System On Chip - SoC), with great reductions in cost, chip area and power consumption. However, this tendency places an increasing challenge, in terms of speed, resolution, power consumption, and noise performance, in the design of the front-end ADC which is usually the bottleneck of the whole system, especially under the unavoidable low supply-voltage imposed by technology scaling, as well as the requirement of battery operated portable devices. Generalized Low-Voltage Circuit Techniques for Very High-Speed Time-Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converters will present new techniques tailored for low-voltage and high-speed Switched-Capacitor (SC) ADC with various design-specific considerations.

Adaptive Representations for Reinforcement Learning

Adaptive Representations for Reinforcement Learning
Springer; 1st Edition | October 6, 2010 | ISBN-10: 3642139310 | 133 pages | PDF | 4.17 Mb

This book presents new algorithms for reinforcement learning, a form of machine learning in which an autonomous agent seeks a control policy for a sequential decision task. Since current methods typically rely on manually designed solution representations, agents that automatically adapt their own representations have the potential to dramatically improve performance. This book introduces two novel approaches for automatically discovering high-performing representations. The first approach synthesizes temporal difference methods, the traditional approach to reinforcement learning, with evolutionary methods, which can learn representations for a broad class of optimization problems. This synthesis is accomplished by customizing evolutionary methods to the on-line nature of reinforcement learning and using them to evolve representations for value function approximators. The second approach automatically learns representations based on piecewise-constant approximations of value functions. It begins with coarse representations and gradually refines them during learning, analyzing the current policy and value function to deduce the best refinements. This book also introduces a novel method for devising input representations. This method addresses the feature selection problem by extending an algorithm that evolves the topology and weights of neural networks such that it evolves their inputs too. In addition to introducing these new methods, this book presents extensive empirical results in multiple domains demonstrating that these techniques can substantially improve performance over methods with manual representations.
