Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 804
Book Description
Evaluation copies are available. Please contact [email protected]. Provide the course number, number of students and present textbook used.Introduction to Avionics Systems, Second Edition explains the basic principles and underlying theory of modern avionic systems and how they are implemented with current technology for both civil and military aircraft in a clear and easy to read manner.All systems are explained so that their design and performance can be understood and analysed. Worked examples are included to illustrate the application of the theory and principles covered. The latest developments and directions of research for future systems are included.This new second edition has approximately 25% new material and takes into account the technology developments which have taken place since the first edition was published in January 1996. The book is well illustrated with line drawings and photos, with some in colour where appropriate.Readership: Graduates (or equivalent) from a range of disciplines entering the avionics and aerospace industries.Engineers at all levels engaged in the design and development of avionic systems and equipment in the avionic and aerospace industries.Students and post graduate students taking avionics and aeronautical engineering courses.Staff in the armed services and civil airlines engaged in the support or operation of aircraft who wish to acquire a deeper understanding of the design and implementation of avionic systems and equipment.

Query Processing in Database Systems
Author: W. KimPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642823750
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
This book is an anthology of the results of research and development in database query processing during the past decade. The relational model of data provided tremendous impetus for research into query processing. Since a relational query does not specify access paths to the stored data, the database management system (DBMS) must provide an intelligent query-processing subsystem which will evaluate a number of potentially efficient strategies for processing the query and select the one that optimizes a given performance measure. The degree of sophistication of this subsystem, often called the optimizer, critically affects the performance of the DBMS. Research into query processing thus started has taken off in several directions during the past decade. The emergence of research into distributed databases has enormously complicated the tasks of the optimizer. In a distributed environment, the database may be partitioned into horizontal or vertical fragments of relations. Replicas of the fragments may be stored in different sites of a network and even migrate to other sites. The measure of performance of a query in a distributed system must include the communication cost between sites. To minimize communication costs for-queries involving multiple relations across multiple sites, optimizers may also have to consider semi-join techniques.
Organization of Programming Languages

Pages : 218
Book Description
Beside the computers itself, programming languages are the most important tools of a computer scientist, because they allow the formulation of algorithms in a way that a computer can perform the desired actions. Without the availability of (high level) languages it would simply be impossible to solve complex problems by using computers. Therefore, high level programming languages form a central topic in Computer Science. It should be a must for every student of Computer Science to take a course on the organization and structure of programming languages, since the knowledge about the design of the various programming languages as well as the understanding of certain compilation techniques can support the decision to choose the right language for a particular problem or application. This book is about high level programming languages. It deals with all the major aspects of programming languages (including a lot of examples and exercises). Therefore, the book does not give an detailed introduction to a certain program ming language (for this it is referred to the original language reports), but it explains the most important features of certain programming languages using those pro gramming languages to exemplify the problems. The book was outlined for a one session course on programming languages. It can be used both as a teacher's ref erence as well as a student text book.

Improving Software Testing
Author: Tim A. MajchrzakPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642274641
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
Software is continuously increasing in complexity. Paradigmatic shifts and new development frameworks make it easier to implement software – but not to test it. Software testing remains to be a topic with many open questions with regard to both technical low-level aspects and to the organizational embedding of testing. However, a desired level of software quality cannot be achieved by either choosing a technical procedure or by optimizing testing processes. In fact, it requires a holistic approach.This Brief summarizes the current knowledge of software testing and introduces three current research approaches. The base of knowledge is presented comprehensively in scope but concise in length; thereby the volume can be used as a reference. Research is highlighted from different points of view. Firstly, progress on developing a tool for automated test case generation (TCG) based on a program’s structure is introduced. Secondly, results from a project with industry partners on testing best practices are highlighted. Thirdly, embedding testing into e-assessment of programming exercises is described.
