Guided vehicles (GVs) are commonly used for the internal transportation of loads in warehouses, production plants and terminals. These guided vehicles can be routed with a variety of vehicle dispatching rules in an attempt to meet performance criteria such as minimizing the average load wa ...
Computational models are commonly used in engineering design and scientific discovery activities for simulating
complex physical systems in disciplines such as fluid mechanics, structural dynamics, heat transfer, nonlinear
structural mechanics, shock physics, and many others. These simulators can be ...
Color appearance models aim to extend basic colorimetry to the level of specifying the perceived color of stimuli in a wide variety of viewing conditions
The current methods of communications are becoming less relevant under
today’s growing demand for and reliance on constant connectivity. Of
decreasing relevance are the models of a single radio to perform a single
task. The expansion of wireless access points among coffee shops, airports,
malls, an ...
In 2005, when the world crossed-over to Web 2.0, business professionals and managers in
every industry – from traditional retail to high tech media and telecom – felt the first powerful
tremors of the strategic shifts taking place, sweeping away traditional business models and
altering competitive ...
Throughout the course of my work in multihop mobile ad hoc networks (MANET)
over the last several years, I reached the conclusion that mobility models and perfor-
mance metrics need to be treated in detail in designing these networks that are the
ultimatefrontierinwirelesscommunications. Awidevariet ...
With the rapid expansion of wireless consumer products,there has been a con-
siderable increase in the need for radio-frequency (RF) planning, link plan-
ning, and propagation modeling.A network designer with no RF background
may find himself/herself designing a wireless network. A wide array of RF
...
When we started thinking about writing the first edition of this book a few years ago, we had been
working together for more than five years on the borderline between propagation and signal processing.
Therefore, it is not surprising that this book deals with propagation models and design tools for ...
