A set of four volumes compiled by leading authorities in the electricity supply industry and manufacturing companies to provide a comprehensive treatment of power system protection.

The field of digital image restoration is concerned with the reconstruction or estimation of uncorrupted images from noisy, blurred ones. This blurring may be caused by optical distortions, object motion during imaging, or atmospheric turbulence. There are existing or potential applications of image restoration in many scientific and engineering fields, such as aerial imaging, remote sensing, electron microscopy and medical imaging. This book describes recent advances and provides a survey of the field. New research results are presented on the formulation of the restoration problem, the implementation of restoration algorithms using artificial neural networks, the derivation and application of non-stationary mathematical image models, the development of simultaneous image and blur parameter identification and restoration algorithms, and the development of algorithms for restoring scanned photographic images. Special attention is paid to issues of numerical instrumentation. A large number of illustrations demonstrate the performance of the restoration approaches.

ARM Architecture is designed in such a way that even readers with a basic understanding of microprocessors can learn and understand the concepts with ease. This book addresses the concerns of software developers, system designers, and hardware engineers focusing on development of drivers, software, and hardware components in a closely-knit fashion to avoid compatibility issues. ARM Architecture guides engineers through the workings of an ARM in system on chip (SOC) via an example driven systematic process. It also elucidates on data flow between peripherals and ARM in SOC, drivers and the programming of hardware peripherals through multiple illustrations. The book teaches the reader programming the ARM chip in both C and assembly language with the help of multiple examples. It helps the reader learn peripheral programming, which is necessary for firmware development for embedded systems and driver development. It also teaches the reader how to program a system on chip. ARM Architecture does far more than just outline the ARM features; it explains the implementation of processor in real-world designs through a step-by-step process and is beneficial to people who are migrating from 8 bit micro-controllers to 32 bit micro-controllers and covers the ARM family extensively,elucidating on hardware blocks like SDRAM, RAM, etc.

Discrete Time Optical Signal Processing provides an introduction to the basic principles, enabling technologies, and methods for the analysis and synthesis and applications of optical filters that process signals in the time domain. These structures are finding increasing applications in the fields of broadband optical communications, sensing, radar, microwaves, and avionics.

Researchers, engineers, and scientists with diverse backgrounds working in these fields require an updated and modern approach to the subject and this book is aimed at providing this coverage by exploiting the well known techniques of discrete time signal processing and applying them directly to the field of optical filters. In this way the interested reader is able to understand and master this technology while avoiding the complex formulation of classical optics.

Both finite (FIR) and infinite impulse response (IIR) filters working in coherent and incoherent regimes are considered in this subject-focused text.

Fundamentals of MEG and EEG: Biophysics, Instrumentation, and Data Analysis gives graduate students and researchers a technical understanding of the fundamentals of MEG and EEG that will enable them to gain expertise in the state-of-the-art, understand the generation, measurement and modeling of electromagnetic brain signals, understand the relationship of MEG/EEG with other brain imaging methods, design MEG/EEG measurement systems and evaluate their performance, and develop and evaluate data analysis methods.

The proposed work is a joint International conference on the topics of Computer, Electrical and Electronics. Communication networks, Computing and Electronics are advancing to a new era to support the unprecedented growth of the internet and cellular network usage for communications, information services and power technologies. Therefore, the aim of CSA and SPC 2015 is to ensemble world-class researchers to share their ideas and progress on solving the future challenges that the Communication networks, Computing and Electronics face. The main objective of this joint international conference is to promote research and developmental activities in Communication, Computing and Power Electronics.

Genomic Analysis Using Digital Signal Processing presents some of the recent advances and challenges in signal processing analysis of genomic sequences, showing how the use of signal processing tools can offer interpretation for the study of genomics and biological function. The book covers several major areas, including mapping the problem, noise in genomic signals, segmentation and signal processing tools, and applications of genomic signal processing. Researchers and graduate students in signal processing, biomedical engineering and bioinformatics will find this book a very useful reference on how signal processing methods can be used for genomic analysis.
