This book is a result of teaching stochastic processes to junior and senior undergr- uates and beginning graduate students over many years. In teaching such a course, we have realized a need to furnish students with material that gives a mathematical presentation while at the same time providing proper foundations to allow students to build an intuitive feel for probabilistic reasoning. We have tried to maintain a b- ance in presenting advanced but understandable material that sparks an interest and challenges students, without the discouragement that often comes as a consequence of not understanding the material. Our intent in this text is to develop stochastic p- cesses in an elementary but mathematically precise style and to provide suf?cient examples and homework exercises that will permit students to understand the range of application areas for stochastic processes. We also practice active learning in the classroom. In other words, we believe that the traditional practice of lecturing continuously for 50 to 75 minutes is not a very effective method for teaching. Students should somehow engage in the subject m- ter during the teaching session. One effective method for active learning is, after at most 20 minutes of lecture, to assign a small example problem for the students to work and one important tool that the instructor can utilize is the computer. So- times we are fortunate to lecture students in a classroom containing computers with a spreadsheet program, usually Microsoft's Excel.

If you've done some Arduino tinkering and wondered how you could incorporate the Kinector the other way aroundthen this book is for you. The authors ofArduino and Kinect Projects will show you how to create 10 amazing, creative projects, from simple to complex. You'll also find out how to incorporate Processing in your project designa language very similar to the Arduino language. The ten projects are carefully designed to build on your skills at every step. Starting with the Arduino and Kinect equivalent of "Hello, World," the authors will take you through a diverse range of projects that showcasethe huge range of possibilities that open up when Kinect and Arduino are combined. Gesture-based Remote Control. Control devices and home appliances with hand gestures. Kinect-networked Puppet. Play with a physical puppet remotely using your whole body. Mood Lamps.Build your own set of responsive, gesture controllable LED lamps. Drawing Robot.Control a drawing robot using a Kinect-based tangible table. Remote-controlled Vehicle.Use your body gestures to controla smart vehicle. Biometric Station. Use the Kinect for biometric recognition and checking Body Mass Indexes. 3D Modeling Interface. Learn how to use the Arduino LilyPad to build a wearable 3D modelling interface. 360 Scanner. Build a turntable scanner and scan any object 360 using only one Kinect. Delta Robot.Build and control your ownfast and accurate parallel robot. What you'll learn Arduino and Kinect basics Interfacing Kinect and Arduino through Processing Communicating: Serial andcommunication over networks Interacting with the physical world: Sensors and actuators Volumetric Scanning Step-by-step instructions on a variety of Arduino/Kinect projects Who this book is for

Witnesses to the Gospel: Reflections on Saints and Others who Inspire, is a collection of 41 reflections on holy men and women through the centuries who strived to live the gospel message of Jesus Christ. Some of the people in this collection are canonized by the Roman Catholic Church, some are going through the canonization process and others have no intention of being canonized but all of these people gathered here teach us how to live our Christian lives. They are ordinary people who did extraordinary things well. This book is a combination of biography, scripture study and meditation that will challenge the reader to strive and follow these men and women gathered here to be witnesses to the gospel in the twenty- first century. As St. Francis de Sales once wrote: "The Lives of the Saints is nothing more than the Gospels put into practice." This book tries to prove this point.
