A large international conference, Intelligent Systems and Computer Engineering, was held in Hong Kong, March 21-23, 2007, under the International MultiConf- ence of Engineers and Computer Scientists (IMECS) 2007. The IMECS 2007 is organized by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), a nonpro't int- national association for engineers and computer scientists. The IMECS conferences serve as good platforms for the engineering community to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. The conferences also strike a balance between theoretical and - plication development. The conference...

Digital Terrestrial Broadcasting Networks approachs the existing framework for digital terrrestrial broadcasting, particularly the results of the Regional Radiocommunication Conference held in 2006. That conference established a new frequency plan for Europe, Africa and parts of Asia for digital terrestrial broadcasting. The book introduces the currently existing terrestrial broadcasting systems as well as the regulatory framework by which they can begin operating. Most importantly the book explains details of the GE06 Agreement, particularly Articles 4 and 5. It also discusses the...

Antennas represent a critical technology in any of these wireless systems. Not only do they directly affect the received power of the system, they are also typically the largest and most visible part. Recently, the need for low-cost, low-profile, and lightweight antenna in the frequency range of the microwave/millimeter wave/THz band has regained momentum.
"Basic Principles of Fresnel Antenna Arrays" provides us a with the basics of the various Fresnel Antenna approaches, in order to achieve low-cost, low-profile, and lightweight antenna in the microwave/millimeter wave...

The present book includes a set of selected papers from the third "International Conference on Informatics in Control Automation and Robotics" (ICINCO 2006), held in Setubal, Portugal, from 1 to 5 August 2006, sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC). The conference was organized in three simultaneous tracks: "Intelligent Control Systems and Optimization," "Robotics and Automation" and "Systems Modeling, Signal Processing and Control." The book is based on the same structure. Although ICINCO 2006 received 309 paper...

In the beginning of 2003, I found a short article about the privacy implications of RFID technology in a newspaper. It raised my interest, and after reading some early research papers on the topic, I thought: "There must exist better solutions. " I c- cerned myself with the topic in my spare time. After having developed my rst - lutions, I asked my supervisor, Prof. Dr. Paul Muller ], whether I could write a paper about my results. As the topic did not t into any running project or at least the overall research directions of his group, he could have answered no. But instead, he encouraged me...

Lectori Salutem This is another book - among the myriads - dealing with wireless communications. The reader might be aware: this topic is really among bestsellers in technology - bestsellers in technology itself and that in technical literature. Communications is one of the leading techniques in information society and mobile/wireless communications is one among the (maybe not more than two with optics the second) leading techniques in communications. Development of wireless communications was and is really spec- cular in the last decade of the 20th and first decade of the 21st century. Such...

The book is devoted to exploring the foundations of the theory of thin impedance vibrator antennas. The text provides a continuation of the classic theory of thin perfectly conducting vibrators. Many consider impedance conception one of the most universal models in the theory of wave processes, as it informs such a wide spectrum of uses in solving practical problems of electrodynamics. This topic provides an opportunity to further search analytical solutions, allowing a simplification of the mathematical formulation of the boundary problem. The theory strives to widen the boundaries of the...

The 3rd European Conference on Computer Network Defense took place in September 2007 at Aldemar Hotel, in Heraklion, Crete, Greece in cooperation with the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA). The theme of the conference was the protection of computer networks. The conference drew participants from academia and industry in Europe and beyond to discuss hot topics in applied network and systems security. The conference was a great success, with 6 refereed papers and 6 invited presentations on topics ranging from high assurance networks of virtual machines to signaling...
