简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Virtual Reality Telecommunication Systems (VRTS) will transmit human verbal and nonverbal communication messages, therefore human to network interface considerations are essential. The VRTS will attempt to capture the entire human body by a set of sensors at the transmitting end and will convey these feelings to the human body at the receiving end with actuators. This book provides a broad overview of the current research in the area of creating future VRTS as well as presenting developments in closely-related areas. While many excellent articles have been written on specific applications of Virtual Reality in general, there is little at present that covers the scope of the entire telecommunications network. This book describes the role that VRTS will play in the telecommunications networks of the future. It offers not only a high-level overview of undergoing research, but also a detailed analysis of prototype implementations. * The first comprehensive book that covers the full scope of VRTS in the context of telecommunications and offers a guide to employing Virtual Reality in telecommunications networks * Offers an in-depth discussion of this hot topic * Considers the emergence of both new network architectures and the trend toward convergence between the public switched telephone network and the Internet * Features the shared knowledege and latest findings of top researchers from companies/universities such as NTT Cyber Space Labs (Japan), Lucent Technologies (USA) and QMW (GB) Essential reading for experienced researchers and network planners, engineers and visualisation engineers, as well as advanced undergraduate/graduate students studying electronic engineering, communications technology and computer science.

简介：This book covers a broad range of algorithms in depth, yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a unit of study. The algorithms are described in English and in a pseudocode designed to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming. The explanations have been kept elementary without sacrificing depth of coverage or mathematical rigor. The first edition became the standard reference for professionals and a widely used text in universities worldwide. The second edition features new chapters on the role of algorithms, probabilistic analysis and randomized algorithms, and linear programming, as well as extensive revisions to virtually every section of the book.

简介：This book is intended to fill a knowledge gap in the study of contemporary high-rise living. While there has been much documentation on the engineering and technological aspects of tall buildings, relatively little has been written about the social and livability of high-rise. Much less is written about Asian cities even though Asia is the current hotbed of high-rise development.

简介：Modeling of Chemical Reactions covers detailed chemical kinetics models for chemical reactions. Including a comprehensive treatment of pressure dependent reactions, which are frequently not incorporated into detailed chemical kinetic models, and the use of modern computational quantum chemistry, which has recently becomean extraordinarily useful component of the reaction kinetics toolkit. It is intended both for those who need to model complex chemical reaction processes but have little background in the area, and those who are already have experience and would benefit from having a wide rangeof useful material gathered in one volume. The range of subject matter is wider than that found in many previous treatments of this subject. The technical level of the material is also quite wide, so that non-experts can gain a grasp of fundamentals, and experts also can find the book useful. * A solid introduction to kinetics * Materialon computational quantum chemistry, an important new area for kinetics * Contains a chapter on construction of mechanisms, an approach only found in this book.

简介：Thirty-five percent of the Hong Kong population lives in small apartments in public housing, yet there has been little documented about how this effects quality of life. Through qualitative interviews with public housing residents, At Home with Density addresses the seeming paradox that Hong Kong is one of the most prosperous societies in the world (with the highest density of Rolls Royces, mobile telephones, and millionaires per square mile), and yet, most of the population lives in what is, by western standards, low quality, high-density housing. As there are few theoretically-informed studies of Asian urban design, this book represents an important contribution to the fields of design, sociology, and cultural geography. The accompanying award-winning documentary film, A Thousand Pieces of Gold, the recipient of the Gold Award at the Hong Kong Independent Film and Video Awards in 1998, will enable readers unfamiliar with Hong Kong housing the opportunity to experience these spaces.

简介：COMPARATIVE POLITICS IN TRANSITION combines a thematic framework with a country by country approach to provide a true introduction to Comparative Politics, one that assumes very little prior knowledge on the part of students. The author uses an "arenas" classification to organize and frame the systematic comparative analysis, rather than the "three worlds" framework. The "arenas" classification reflects the contemporary political, economic, and social realities of different political systems, allowing the author to provide an historical, theoretical, and conceptual background through nine country case studies.
