Wake-up Receiver Based Ultra-Low-Power WBAN
by Maarten Lont Dusan Milosevic Arthur Van RoermundThis book presents the cross-layer design and optimization of wake-up receivers for wireless body area networks (WBAN), with an emphasis on low-power circuit design. This includes the analysis of medium access control (MAC) protocols, mixer-first receiver design, and implications of receiver impairments on wideband frequency-shift-keying (FSK) receivers. Readers will learn how the overall power consumption is reduced by exploiting the characteristics of body area networks. Theoretical models presented are validated with two different receiver implementations, in 90nm and 40nm CMOS technology.
Wavelet Neural Networks

Waves in Neural Media
by Paul C. BressloffWaves in Neural Media: From Single Neurons to Neural Fields surveys mathematical models of traveling waves in the brain, ranging from intracellular waves in single neurons to waves of activity in large-scale brain networks. The work provides a pedagogical account of analytical methods for finding traveling wave solutions of the variety of nonlinear differential equations that arise in such models. These include regular and singular perturbation methods, weakly nonlinear analysis, Evans functions and wave stability, homogenization theory and averaging, and stochastic processes. Also covered in the text are exact methods of solution where applicable. Historically speaking, the propagation of action potentials has inspired new mathematics, particularly with regard to the PDE theory of waves in excitable media. More recently, continuum neural field models of large-scale brain networks have generated a new set of interesting mathematical questions with regard to the solution of nonlocal integro-differential equations. Advanced graduates, postdoctoral researchers and faculty working in mathematical biology, theoretical neuroscience, or applied nonlinear dynamics will find this book to be a valuable resource. The main prerequisites are an introductory graduate course on ordinary differential equations or partial differential equations, making this an accessible and unique contribution to the field of mathematical biology.
Ways of Knowing in HCI
by Judith S. Olson Wendy A. KelloggThis textbook brings together both new and traditional research methods in Human Computer Interaction (HCI).

The background context, clear explanations and sample exercises make this an ideal textbook for graduate students, as well as a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners. 'It is an impressive collection in terms of the level of detail and variety. ' (M. Sasikumar, ACM Computing Reviews #CR144066)

Web Development with Node and Express
by Ethan BrownThe Express web application framework for Node strikes the ideal balance between a robust framework and no framework at all. Many web frameworks try to do so much that they become inflexible and overly complicated, having a negative effect on both learning curve and ability to customize. Express takes a much more agnostic approach, allowing developers a free hand in their architecture choices. It is a joy to work with, and this book is designed not only to introduce the framework, but also to provide some guidance about how to go about doing things that more elaborate (and inflexible) frameworks provide.Even though there is plenty of material on the topic of Express alone, Web Development with Node and Express will provide you additional value because it also covers best practices in web architecture. Ideal for those new to JavaScript, this book also shows experienced JavaScript developers have started to look towards Express as a viable alternative for web development.As someone who deals every day with the complexities of real-world websites, author Ethan Brown offers tremendous wisdom and experience for people interested in producing high-quality, fast, maintainable websites that are friendly to SEO and analytics.This book covers Express 4.0.
