Overview: A typical undergraduate electrical engineering curriculum incorporates a signals and systems course. The widely used approach for the laboratory component of such courses involves the utilization of MATLAB to implement signals and systems concepts. This book presents a newly developed laboratory paradigm where MATLAB codes are made to run on smartphones which are possessed by nearly all students. As a result, this laboratory paradigm provides an anywhere-anytime hardware platform or processing board for students to learn implementation aspects of signals and systems concepts. The boo

Overview: Presents the results of an investigation into the issuesraised by thedevelopment of a compiler for APL, a very highlevel computer programming language. APL presents a numberof novel problems for a compiler writer:weak variabletyping, run time changes in variable shape, and a hostofprimitive operations. Through the integration of severalrecentlydeveloped compiler construction techniques, such asdata flow analysis, and a novel and space efficient demanddriven or lazy evaluation approach tocode generation, theauthor has been able to produce a true compiler forthelanguage while still mai

Overview: Homing phenomena must be considered an important aspect of animal behaviour on account of their frequent occurrence, their survival value, and the variety of the mechanisms involved. Many species regularly rely on their ability to home or reach other familiar sites, but how they manage to do this is often uncertain. In many cases the goal is attained in the absence of any sensory contact, by mechanisms of indirect orientation whose complexity and sophistication have for a long time challenged the skill and patience of many researchers. A series of problems of increasing difficulty ha
