Advances in Noise Analysis, Mitigation and Control

The chapter is intended to provide the reader with means to reduce low‐frequency noise in Metal‐Oxide‐Semiconductor Field‐Effect‐Transistor (MOSFET). It is demonstrated that low‐resistivity source and drain electrodes can greatly lower the low‐frequency noise level by suppressing their contribution to the total noise

Representations of Transnational Human Trafficking : Present-day News Media, …

This open access edited collection examines representations of human trafficking in media ranging from British and Serbian newspapers, British and Scandinavian crime novels, and a documentary series, and questions the extent to which these portrayals reflect the realities of trafficking. It tackles the problematic tendency to under-report particular types of victim and forms of trafficking, and…

Storytelling and the Sciences of Mind

"With Storytelling and the Science of Mind, David Herman proposes a cross-fertilization between the study of narrative and research on intelligent behavior. This cross-fertilization goes beyond the simple importing of ideas from the sciences of mind into scholarship on narrative and instead aims for convergence between work in narrative studies and research in the cognitive sciences. The book a…

The secret life of literature

"A leading practitioner of 'cognitive aesthetics' shows how narrative literature works its magic on readers by drawing surreptitiously on patterns developed over four thousand years ago"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.

Culinary Linguistics: The Chef's Special

Language and food are universal to humankind. Language accomplishes more than a pure exchange of information, and food caters for more than mere subsistence. Both represent crucial sites for socialization, identity construction, and the everyday fabrication and perception of the world as a meaningful, orderly place. This volume contains an introduction to the study of food and an extensive over…

Hierarchical Matrices: Algorithms and Analysis

This self-contained monograph presents matrix algorithms and their analysis. The new technique enables not only the solution of linear systems but also the approximation of matrix functions, e.g., the matrix exponential. Other applications include the solution of matrix equations, e.g., the Lyapunov or Riccati equation. The required mathematical background can be found in the appendix. The n…

A Handbook of Fourier Theorems

This book is concerned with the well-established mathematical technique known as Fourier analysis (or alternatively as harmonic or spectral analysis). It is a handbook comprising a collection of the most important theorems in Fourier analysis, presented without proof in a form that is accurate but also accessible to a reader who is not a specialist mathematician. The technique of Fourier analys…

Numerical Analysis and Optimization: NAO-III, Muscat, Oman, January 2014
