    Revolutionize your approach to reliability assessment with this groundbreaking book Reliability evaluation is a critical aspect of engineering, without which safe performance within desired parameters over the lifespan of machines cannot be guaranteed. With microelectronics, in particular, the challenges to evaluating reliability are considerable, and statistical methods for creating microelectronic reliability standards are complex. With nano-scale microelectronic devices increasingly prominent in modern life, it has never been more important to understand the tools available to evaluate reliability. Handbook of Physics-of-Failure Based Microelectronic Systems meets this need with a cluster of tools built around principles of reliability physics and the concept of remaining useful life (RUL). It takes as its core subject the 'physics of failure', combining a thorough understanding of conventional approaches to reliability evaluation with a keen knowledge of their blind spots. It equips engineers and researchers with the capacity to overcome decades of errant reliability physics and place their work on a sound engineering footing. Handbook of Physics-of-Failure Based Microelectronic Systems readers will also find: Focus on the tools required to perform reliability assessments in real operating conditions Detailed discussion of topics including failure foundation, reliability testing, acceleration factor calculation, and more New multi-physics of failure on DSM technologies, including TDDB, EM, HCI, and BTI Handbook of Physics-of-Failure Based Microelectronic Systems is ideal for reliability and quality engineers, design engineers, and advanced engineering students looking to understand this crucial area of product design and testing.

    b>Clinical ElectrocardiographyElectrocardiography is a transthoracic recording over a period of time. Electrical activity is detected and recorded via electrodes attached to the outer surface of the skin. The recording produced by this noninvasive procedure is termed as electrocardiogram. ECGs are used to measure the rate and regularity of heartbeats as well as the size and position of the chambers, the presence of any damage to the heart, and the effects of drugs or devices used to regulate the heart.Clinical Electrocardiography is the clearest and most accessible guide available to the application and interpretation of the ECG in clinical practice. The book proceeds from the belief that ECG patterns should not be memorized, but rather must be understood based on how they originate; it is only by achieving this level of understanding that clinicians can make the most informed diagnoses and thus manage patient care with complete confidence. This fully revised 5th edition:* Gives clear information about the correct diagnoses of different heart diseases based on ECG alterations.* Presents an exceedingly clear and linear approach to understanding the application and interpretation of the ECG in clinical practice.* Explains the electrical activity of the heart and basic electrocardiographic principals.* Offers guidance on normal ECG patterns and the changes various heart diseases produce in ECG morphology* Provides a practical, deductive approach to the diagnosis of arrhythmias - one of the most challenging tasks for many clinicians* Summarizes current knowledge of the clinical implication of rhythmic disturbances.

    Providing in-depth treatment of error correctionError Correction Coding: Mathematical Methods and Algorithms, 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive introduction to classical and modern methods of error correction. The presentation provides a clear, practical introduction to using a lab-oriented approach. Readers are encouraged to implement the encoding and decoding algorithms with explicit algorithm statements and the mathematics used in error correction, balanced with an algorithmic development on how to actually do the encoding and decoding. Both block and stream (convolutional) codes are discussed, and the mathematics required to understand them are introduced on a "just-in-time" basis as the reader progresses through the book.The second edition increases the impact and reach of the book, updating it to discuss recent important technological advances. New material includes:* Extensive coverage of LDPC codes, including a variety of decoding algorithms.* A comprehensive introduction to polar codes, including systematic encoding/decoding and list decoding.* An introduction to fountain codes.* Modern applications to systems such as HDTV, DVBT2, and cell phonesError Correction Coding includes extensive program files (for example, C++ code for all LDPC decoders and polar code decoders), laboratory materials for students to implement algorithms, and an updated solutions manual, all of which are perfect to help the reader understand and retain the content.The book covers classical BCH, Reed Solomon, Golay, Reed Muller, Hamming, and convolutional codes which are still component codes in virtually every modern communication system. There are also fulsome discussions of recently developed polar codes and fountain codes that serve to educate the reader on the newest developments in error correction.
