Modern Assembly Language Programming with the ARM Processor, Second Edition is a tutorial-based book on assembly language programming using the ARM processor. It presents the concepts of assembly language programming in different ways, slowly building from simple examples towards complex programming on bare-metal embedded systems. The ARM processor was chosen as it has fewer instructions and irregular addressing rules to learn than most other architectures, allowing more time to spend on teaching assembly language programming concepts and good programming practice. Careful consideration is given to topics that students struggle to grasp, such as registers vs. memory and the relationship between pointers and addresses, recursion, and non-integral binary mathematics. A whole chapter is dedicated to structured programming principles. Concepts are illustrated and reinforced with many tested and debugged assembly and C source listings. The book also covers advanced topics such as fixed- and floating-point mathematics, optimization, and the ARM VFP and NEONTM extensions.

Postbiotics: Health and Industry provides a detailed overview on the fundamentals, biological and therapeutic properties, safety, and application of postbiotics in health and industry. Sections cover the fundamentals of postbiotics, which include insights on probiotic microorganisms, postbiotics, and host-microbe interaction, analysis, and characterization of postbiotics. The book goes on to delve into the different types of postbiotics and their mechanisms. Remaining sections explore various health, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications of postbiotics.

Artificial Intelligence in Urology: Present and Future summarizes the cutting-edge development and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in urology. The book explores barriers that prevent the further adoption of AI technologies, provides ethical considerations, and investigates the future role AI is expected to play. In addition, it includes applications of AI technology in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers (prostate, bladder, and more) and kidney stones, and in both adult and pediatric care. This is the perfect reference for researchers developing AI technologies for clinical applications and for clinicians who aim to effectively adopt AI technologies to solve clinical questions.

The Encyclopedia of Electrochemical Power Sources, Second Edition, Five Volume Set is a truly interdisciplinary reference for those working with batteries, fuel cells, electrolyzers, supercapacitors, and photo-electrochemical cells. With a focus on the environmental and economic impact of electrochemical power sources, this work consolidates coverage of the field and serves as an entry point to the literature for professionals and students alike. Since the first edition published in 2009, the field of electrochemical power sources has registered tremendous growth and development. The market for batteries alone has doubled in size and many conventional systems have been further improved, with new systems introduced. Completely revised, and now thematically arranged, this new edition covers all the scientific, technical, and economic developments in the field of electrochemical power sources in the past decade.

Treatise on Geochemistry, Third Edition, 6 volume set is an invaluable resource for geoscientists and others seeking to understand the origin, evolution, and functioning of our inhabited world, in service of a sustainable future. Our need to understand our planet is being reshaped by two ongoing scientific revolutions: the discovery of thousands of exoplanets and the advent of the Anthropocene. These seemingly disparate revolutions challenge us to deepen our understanding of Earth, as our best path to understanding how inhabited planets work. Geochemical knowledge and discovery are at the heart of this challenge, the crossroads where all geoscience subdisciplines meet - much as chemistry is often said to be the "central science", geochemistry is the "central geoscience". Treatise on Geochemistry fills the gap between mature and established geochemical knowledge, including analytical developments and the rapidly evolving frontiers of the field.

Encyclopedia of the Human Brain, Second Edition, Seven Volume Set builds on the success of the first edition, providing neuroscience researchers with the ideal 'one-stop' resource on all topics related to human brain understanding. Given the length of time since the first edition published, EHB2 is thoroughly revised, with substantial updates on many new and exciting topics, including areas such as human neuroimaging, non-invasive brain stimulation, molecular biology (including genetics and epigenetics), and the clinical diagnoses of brain disorders, along with chapters exploring the introduction of new theoretical and methodological ideas in areas ranging from cognitive neuroscience to evolution of the human brain. In total, there are 440 articles - a vast increase from 224 previously - thus reflecting the huge explosion in neuroscience research during the last 20 years. EHB2 provides a brand new generation of neuroscientists with the perfect tool with which to learn and master the fundamentals of how and why the human brain operates as it does.

The Rose-Mackay Textbook of Autoimmune Diseases, Seventh Edition is a comprehensive reference that emphasizes the "3 P's" of 21st Century medicine: precision, prediction, and prevention. Topics cover the modern systems approach to biology that involves large amounts of personalized, ongoing physiologic data ("omics") coupled with advanced methods of analysis, new tests of genetic engineering, such as CRISPR, auto inflammatory diseases, autoimmune responses to tumor immunotherapy, and information on normal immune response and disorders. Each of the major autoimmune disorders is discussed by researchers and clinical investigators experienced in dealing with patients. This new edition continues its success with 75% of the content revised, updated, or completely new. This edition is a valuable resource to clinicians involved in the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune disease, as well as to scientists who want to follow developments in the field.

Fast and Effective Embedded Systems Design, Third Edition is a fast-moving introduction to embedded systems design, applying the innovative Arm mbed "ecosystem," including both hardware components and its web-based development environment. Minimal background knowledge is needed to start. Each chapter introduces a major topic in embedded systems and proceeds as a series of practical experiments. A "learning through doing" strategy is adopted, with the underlying theory being introduced alongside. C/C++ programming is applied, with a step-by-step approach which allows you to get coding quickly. Once the basics are covered, the book progresses to some hot embedded topics - intelligent instrumentation, Bluetooth LE, Zigbee, real-time programming, and the Internet of Things. In this new edition all code is refreshed to match the new mbed operating system, and much new code is introduced. The principles of real-time operating systems are explained, and the capabilities of the mbed RTOS are clearly demonstrated. This third edition will readily form the basis of introductory and intermediate university or college courses in embedded systems.
