The book reports modeling and simulation techniques for substrate noise coupling effects in RFICs and introduces isolation structures and design guides to mitigate such effects with the ultimate goal of enhancing the yield of RF and mixed signal SoCs. The book further reports silicon measurements, and new test and noise isolation structures. To the authors knowledge, this is the first title devoted to the topic of substrate noise coupling in RFICs as part of a large SoC.
The efficient functioning of modern society depends on the smooth operation of many complex systems which provide products and services. These include transport systems, communication systems, utilities, manufacturing plants, processing plants, hospitals and banks. Such systems are unreliable in the sense that they degrade with age and/or usage and fail when they are no longer capable of delivering the products and services. When a complex system fails, the consequences can be dramatic. It can result in serious economic losses, affect humans and do serious damage to the environment. These failures can be controlled through preventive maintenance actions. Due to advances in the understanding of the physics of failure, and in the technologies used to combat this failure; the literature on maintenance of unreliable systems is vast. Complex System Maintenance Handbook is the first book to integrate this vast literature with chapters written by internationally-renowned active researchers and experienced practitioners focussing on different aspects of maintenance. Each chapter will review the literature dealing with a particular aspect of maintenance, report on developments and trends in a particular industry sector or present a case study. Complex System Maintenance Handbook narrows the gap between theory and practice and will trigger new research on different aspects of maintenance. It will be of interest to maintenance engineers and managers working in industry as well as researchers and graduate students in the fields of maintenance, industrial engineering and applied mathematics.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Management of Multimedia and Mobile Networks and Services, MMNS 2006, held in Dublin, Ireland in October 2006 in the course of the 2nd International Week on Management of Networks and Services, Manweek 2006. The 18 revised full papers and six revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions.
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International ICST Conference, ADHOCNETS 2011, held in Paris, France, in September 2011. The 15 revised full papers - selected from 42 submissions - and the 2 invited papers cover several fundamental aspects of ad hoc networking, including security, quality of service, radio and spectrum analysis, mobility, energy efficiency, and deployment. They are organized in topical sections on security and QoS, WSN development and evaluation, radio and spectrum analysis, mobile WSNs, mobile ad hoc networks, and energy.
The extended network spans of next generation long-reach passive optical networks (LR-PONs) result in extremely long propagation delays that severely degrade the performance of currently adopted upstream bandwidth-allocation algorithms. This is because these algorithms are based on bandwidth negotiation messages, frequently exchanged between the central office and distant network units, which become seriously delayed when the network is possibly extended to hundreds of kilometers. This book addresses this problem by proposing decentralized media access for these emerging networks, allowing the network units to communicate with each other and take turns accessing the upstream channel. This makes the upstream bandwidth-allocation performance independent of the network reach and enables sooner transmission of upstream packets. The book also reviews some of the major contributions in this field, and studies many challenges facing the decentralized scheme. Through extensive simulation, the performance of the decentralized scheme is evaluated in contrast with centralized schemes. In addition, various improvement approaches are explored and further research points are highlighted.
Fishes are considered one of the most valuable nutritive, tasty, palatable, cheap and easily digestable protein for man. Fishes can compensate shortage of other animal proteins which arise from rapid increase of human populations, particularly in developing countries, and also from dramatic impacts of emerging infectious diseases on livestock and poultry production, ranging from Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy to Avian Influenza. From the public health point of view, consumption of fishes infected with the larval stages of some parasites represents a human hazard. Freshwater fishes are considered one of the most important sources of parasitic infections of man and fish-eating mammals, particularly when the waters of rivers and lakes increasingly are polluted.
