A complete and comprehensive reference on modulation and signal processing for visible light communicationThis informative new book on state-of-the-art visible light communication (VLC) provides, for the first time, a systematical and advanced treatment of modulation and signal processing for VLC. Visible Light Communications: Modulation and Signal Processing offers a practical guide to designing VLC, linking academic research with commercial applications. In recent years, VLC has attracted attention from academia and industry since it has many advantages over the traditional radio frequency, including wide unregulated bandwidth, high security, and low cost. It is a promising complementary technique in 5G and beyond wireless communications, especially in indoor applications. However, lighting constraints have not been fully considered in the open literature when considering VLC system design, and its importance has been underestimated. That’s why this book—written by a team of experts with both academic research experience and industrial development experience in the field—is so welcome. To help readers understand the theory and design of VLC systems, the book: Details many modern techniques on both modulation and signal processing aspects       Links academic research with commercial applications in visible light communications as well as other wireless communication systemsCombines theoretical rigor with practical examples in presenting optical camera communication systemsVisible Light Communications: Modulation and Signal Processing serves as a useful tool and reference book for visible light communication professionals, as well as wireless communication system professionals and project managers. It is also an important guide for undergraduates and graduates who want to conduct research in areas of wireless communications.

From building your own cluster to running cloud-native applications with Kubernetes, this workshop covers it all using engaging examples and activitiesKey FeaturesExplore the Kubernetes environment and understand how containers are managedLearn how to build, maintain, and deploy cloud-native applications using KubernetesGet to grips with using Kubernetes primitives to manage the life cycle of a full application stackBook DescriptionThanks to its extensive support for managing hundreds of containers that run cloud-native applications, Kubernetes is the most popular open source container orchestration platform that makes cluster management easy. This workshop adopts a practical approach to get you acquainted with the Kubernetes environment and its applications.Starting with an introduction to the fundamentals of Kubernetes, you’ll install and set up your Kubernetes environment. You’ll understand how to write YAML files and deploy your first simple web application container using Pod. You’ll then assign human-friendly names to Pods, explore various Kubernetes entities and functions, and discover when to use them. As you work through the chapters, this Kubernetes book will show you how you can make full-scale use of Kubernetes by applying a variety of techniques for designing components and deploying clusters. You’ll also get to grips with security policies for limiting access to certain functions inside the cluster. Toward the end of the book, you’ll get a rundown of Kubernetes advanced features for building your own controller and upgrading to a Kubernetes cluster without downtime.By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to manage containers and run cloud-based applications efficiently using Kubernetes.What you will learnGet to grips with the fundamentals of Kubernetes and its terminologyShare or store data in different containers running in the same podCreate a container image from an image definition manifestConstruct a Kubernetes-aware continuous integration (CI) pipeline for deploymentsAttract traffic to your app using Kubernetes ingressBuild and deploy your own admission controllerWho this book is forWhether you are new to the world of web programming or are an experienced developer or software engineer looking to use Kubernetes for managing and scaling containerized applications, you’ll find this workshop useful. A basic understanding of Docker and containerization is necessary to make the most of this book.

Flexible Electronic Packaging and Encapsulation Technology A systematic introduction to the future of electronic packaging Electronic packaging materials are among the most important components of the broader electronics industry, capable of facilitating heat dissipation, redistributing stress on electronic components, and providing environmental protections for electronic systems. Recent advances in integrated circuits, especially the development of flexible electronic technology, have placed increasingly stringent demands on the capabilities of electronic packaging. These technologies have the potential to reshape our world, and they demand a generation of engineers capable of harnessing that potential. Flexible Electronic Packaging and Encapsulation Technology meets this demand with an introduction to the cutting-edge technologies available to package electronic components, as well as the testing methods and applications that bring these technologies to bear on the industry. These packaging technologies promise to bring lightness, flexibility, and environmental friendliness to the next generation of electronic systems. Flexible Electronic Packaging and Encapsulation Technology readers will also find: Survey of commercial electronic packaging materials and patents for reference purposesGuidelines for designing high-performance packaging materials with novel structuresAn authorial team of leading researchers in the fieldFlexible Electronic Packaging and Encapsulation Technology is ideal for materials scientists, electronics engineers, solid state physicists, professionals in the semiconductor industry, and any other researchers or professionals working with electronic systems.

Bioengineering is attracting many high quality students. This invaluable book has been written for beginning students of bioengineering, and is aimed at instilling a sense of engineering in them.Engineering is invention and designing things that do not exist in nature for the benefit of humanity. Invention can be taught by making inventive thinking a conscious part of our daily life. This is the approach taken by the authors of this book. Each author discusses an ongoing project, and gives a sample of a professional publication. Students are asked to work through a sequence of assignments and write a report. Almost everybody soon realizes that more scientific knowledge is needed, and a strong motivation for the study of science is generated. The teaching of inventive thinking is a new trend in engineering education. Bioengineering is a good field with which to begin this revolution in engineering education, because it is a youthful, developing interdisciplinary field.

This book explores the pathways for Nanjing Tech University to develop into a world-class institution, while reflecting on broader issues in higher education. The book aims to distill insights from the author's extensive experience in academia and university administration (spanning institutions like Peking University, National University of Singapore, and Nanjing Tech). It focuses on Nanjing Tech's strategies, including its pursuit of being "comprehensive, research-oriented, and globalized," and addresses key aspects such as educational philosophy, disciplinary development, talent cultivation, innovation, internationalization, and team building.Covering materials from 2012 to 2015 — including speeches, lectures, and essays — the scope encompasses diverse themes: moral education, institutional reform, collaborative innovation, talent recruitment, and the integration of academia with industry. It also reflects on the university's historical legacy, current challenges, and aspirations, offering a holistic view of its efforts to enhance academic excellence, social impact, and global standing. Ultimately, the book serves as a record of Nanjing Tech's growth and an exploration of universal principles in higher education development.The book will showcase China's progress and achievements in its transition from a major player in higher education to a global leader in the field. It introduces the philosophy of building a socialist higher education system with Chinese characteristics, promotes traditional Chinese culture and contemporary Chinese values worldwide, and facilitates mutual learning between Chinese and international higher education concepts as well as cultural and civilizational exchanges, thus contributing ultimately to building a global community with a shared future for mankind.
