Bodies/Machines
ISBN: 9781859736951 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) It is hard to believe that the pursuit of artificial intelligence is not a phenomenon of the twentieth century. For over three hundred years, the boundaries between bodies and machines - the natural and the artificial, the animate and the inanimate - have been passionately explored. These explorations, beginning in the seventeenth and eighteenth and increasing during the nineteenth century, have been all but forgotten, lost beneath the commotion of the modern day world. This book retrieves these lost histories, giving voice to the hopes, dreams, and fears of philosophers, medical...

Person-Centred Ergonomics: A Brantonian View Of Human Factors
ISBN: 9780748400515 / Angielski / Twarda / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Through the writings of the late, eminent ergonomist Paul Branton, this book explains the nature of the person-centred' approach to ergonomics and human factors. It has become increasingly apparent that mechanistic, information-centred views of people in work is no longer tenable, and the emphasis has begun to shift towards considering the emotional, psychological and philosophical make-up of the individual in the work environment.
The Brantonian approach to ergonomics argues that, far from being sources of error in a system, people at work bring a unique characteristic to that system...

Local Applications of the Ecological Approach To Human-Machine Systems
ISBN: 9780805813807 / Angielski / Miękka / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) There is a growing consensus in the human factors/ergonomics community that human factors research has had little impact on significant applied problems. Some have suggested that the problem lies in the fact that much HF/E research has been based on the wrong type of psychology, an information processing view of psychology that is reductionistic and context-free. Ecological psychology offers a viable alternative, presenting a richer view of human behavior that is holistic and contextualized. The papers presented in these two volumes show the conceptual impact that ecological psychology can...

A Platform-Based Design Methodology for the Electronic System Level
ISBN: 9783836473149 / Angielski / Miękka / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Embedded electronic system design is currently faced with increasing levels of complexity, heterogeneity, and time-to-market demands. In order to cope with these pressures, abstraction and modularity are becoming cornerstones of today's design methodologies. However, if not accompanied by robust design frameworks and flows, they will not be successful. This book describes a number of frameworks and design flows which use a technique called Platform-based Design which addresses these concerns explicitly. This book discusses the emergence of Electronic System Level Design, the Metropolis and...
