Software modernisation or re-engineering is an undefined concept that tends to mean different things to different people. This book seeks to clarify the problem by identifying the solution to long term survival of the APL application as the elimination of APL specific considerations in the choice of a development tool.

This book, along with its supporting animated website, helps the reader to understand the propagation of waves within complex intelligent structures within buildings, and the operation of systems designed to protect these structures. It also comments on proper human behaviour during a lightning thunderstorm.

This second edition of the highly acclaimed and successful first edition, published in 1997, deals primarily with the analysis of structural engineering systems, with applicable methods to other types of structures.

This text outlines the considerable and promising research that is being conducted to counter the problems of uncertainty surrounding the methods used to approach these new applications in the field of modelling and simulation.

This book describes the latest advances in the fields of multimedia engineering applied to the Internet and WWW. It examines the use of the internet for (multimedia) information dissemination and gives a detailed background into how the internet has been used to support multimedia communications.

The public health risks posed by automotive particulate emissions are well known. Such particles are sufficiently small to reach the deepest regions of the lungs; and moreover act as carriers for many potentially toxic substances.

The presence of high voltage power lines has provoked widespread concern for many years. High Voltage Electricity Installations presents an in-depth study of policy surrounding the planning of high voltage installations, discussing the manner in which they are percieved by the public, and the associated environmental issues.

Robust Control Design is based on research into an optimal control approach to robust control design. This book presents an approach that differs from the conventional direct approaches to robust control usually discussed, by firstly translating the robust control problem into its optimal control counterpart.

Analysis of Electromagnetic Waves describes the general analysis principles for electromagnetic fields, principally with applications in microwave, millimetre wave and optical frequency regions, but also for static problems.

Printed Antennas for Wireless Communications provides the reader with an understanding of printed antennas and associated technologies relevant for state of the art wireless systems, and offers valuable insight into important technological breakthroughs in these areas.
