Yourdon, Edward. OBJECT-ORIENTED SYSTEM DESIGN An Integrated Approach. Englewood Cliffs NJ: Yourdon Press, 1994.
Binding is clean, sound and unworn. Minor highlighting on pages 8-11, 29-39, and 257. Pencil underlining and margin notes/marks on pages 119-135. Otherwise the contents are clean. DJ is almost as new. ; Black boards, bright metallic-blue lettering. BUSINESS. This book "...is aimed at the 'practitioner'...the systems developer or manager who has to make OO work in the 'real world' - a world filled with politics, demanding deadlines, and increasing pressure for rapid solutions to urgent problems. Because this book is concerned with analysis and design issues more than programming issues in C++ or Smalltalk, it will be of interest primarily to systems analysts, designers, software architects, and project managers. " Part I introduces the concept of objects and discusses the extent of OO usage. Part II discusses a number of 'management' issues associated with the OO paradigm. Part III examines the broad area of object-oriented analysis, or OOA. Part IV explores object-oriented design, or OOD. Part V discusses CASE technology or OO methodologies. Part VI looks at the organizational question now being debated in software development shops around the world: How do we get started? Index. Occasional figures throughout text. ; 9-1/4" Tall; 400 pages. 0136363253.

Kawamura, Sadao / Svinin, Mikhail: Advances in Robot Control From Everyday Physics to Human-Like Movements, Springer-Verlag GmbH, September 2006 ISBN: 3540373462 NEUBUCH!
This self-contained volume surveys three decades of modern robot control theory and at the same time describes how the work of Suguru Arimoto shaped and influenced its development. Twelve survey articles written by leading experts in the field, who have also been closely associated with Suguru Arimoto at various stages in his career, treat the subject cohesively and in depth. This volume will provide an important reference for graduate students and researchers,as well as for mathematicians, engineers and scientists whose work involves concepts and the language of robot control theory. TOC:Human Robotics: A Vision and A Dream.- Part I From Everyday Physics to Robot Control Natural Motion and Singularity-Consistent Inversion of Robot Manipulators.- Approximate Jacobian Control for Robot Manipulators.- Adaptive Visual Servoing of Robot Manipulators.- Orthogonalization Principle for Dynamic Visual Servoing of Constrained Robot Manipulators.- Passivity-Based Control of Multi-Agent Systems.- Navigation Functions for Dynamical, Nonholonomically Constrained Mechanical Systems.- Planning and Control of Robot Motion Based on Time-Scale Transformation.- Part II From Robot Control to Human-Like Movements Modularity, Synchronization, and What Robotics May Yet Learn from the Brain.- Force Control With A Muscle-Activated Endoskeleton.- On Dynamic Control Mechanisms of Redundant Human Musculo-Skeletal System.- Principle of Superposition in Human Prehension.- Motion Planning of Human-Like Movements in the Manipulation of Flexible Objects.- Haptic Feedback Enhancement Through Adaptive Force Scaling: Theory and Experiment.- Learning to Dynamically Manipulate: A Table Tennis Robot Controls a Ball and Rallies with a Human Being.

Completely revised, these reference books guides the amateur and advanced astronomers in their knowledge and enjoyment of the stars. After an extensive introduction in Vol 1, which gives the beginner enough information to follow about 80% of the body of the material, the author gives comprehensive coverage to the thousands of celestial objects outside our solar system that are within the range of telescopes in the two-to twelve-inch range. The objects are grouped according to the constellations in which they appear. For each object the author gives names, celestial coordinates, classification, and physical description. Together with a star atlas, you will find and identify almost every object. Vol One: Andomeda Through Cetus. ISBN 0486240630. Vol Two: Chamaeleon Through Orion.
