    • A Perspective on Stereophonic Acoustic Echo Cancellation 

      Benesty, Jacob (Springer, 2011)
      Single-channel hands-free teleconferencing systems are becoming popular. In order to enhance the communication quality of these systems, more and more stereophonic sound devices with two loudspeakers and two microphones ...
    • A Pipelined Multi-core MIPS Machine Hardware Implementation and Correctness Proof 

      Kovalev, Mikhail; Muller, Silvia Melitta; Paul, Wolfgang J. (Springer, 2014)
      This monograph is based on the third author's lectures on computer architecture, given in the summer semester 2013 at Saarland University, Germany. It contains a gate level construction of a multi-core machine with pipelined ...
    • A Logical Introduction to Proof 

      Cunningham, Daniel W. (Springer, 2013)
      The book is intended for students who want to learn how to prove theorems and be better prepared for the rigors required in more advance mathematics. One of the key components in this textbook is the development of a ...
    • A Parametric Framework for Modelling of Bioelectrical Signals 

      Mughal, Yar Muhammad (Springer, 2016)
      This book examines non-invasive, electrical-based methods for disease diagnosis and assessment of heart function. In particular, a formalized signal model is proposed since this offers several advantages over methods that ...
    • A Passion for the Planets: Envisioning Other Worlds, From the Pleistocene to the Age of the Telescope 

      Sheehan, William (Springer, 2010)
      Astronomy is by far the most popular of the physical sciences, enticing enough to become a major cultural preoccupation for many, and for some an enthralling scientific activity which veritably rules their lives. What is ...
