Embedded C Programming


Book Description

This book provides a hands-on introductory course on concepts of C programming using a PIC® microcontroller and CCS C compiler. Through a project-based approach, this book provides an easy to understand method of learning the correct and efficient practices to program a PIC® microcontroller in C language. Principles of C programming are introduced gradually, building on skill sets and knowledge. Early chapters emphasize the understanding of C language through experience and exercises, while the latter half of the book covers the PIC® microcontroller, its peripherals, and how to use those peripherals from within C in great detail. This book demonstrates the programming methodology and tools used by most professionals in embedded design, and will enable you to apply your knowledge and programming skills for any real-life application. Providing a step-by-step guide to the subject matter, this book will encourage you to alter, expand, and customize code for use in your own projects. - A complete introduction to C programming using PIC microcontrollers, with a focus on real-world applications, programming methodology and tools - Each chapter includes C code project examples, tables, graphs, charts, references, photographs, schematic diagrams, flow charts and compiler compatibility notes to channel your knowledge into real-world examples - Online materials include presentation slides, extended tests, exercises, quizzes and answers, real-world case studies, videos and weblinks







Complex Analysis and Geometry


Book Description

Based on two conferences held in Trento, Italy, this volume contains 13 research papers and two survey papers on complex analysis and complex algebraic geometry. The main topics addressed by these leading researchers include: Mori theory polynomial hull vector bundles q-convexity Lie groups and actions on complex spaces hypercomplex structures pseudoconvex domains projective varieties Peer-reviewed and extensively referenced, Complex Analysis and Geometry contains recent advances and important research results. It also details several problems that remain open, the resolution of which could further advance the field.

Hamiltonian Systems and Their Integrability


Book Description

"This book presents some modern techniques in the theory of integrable systems viewed as variations on the theme of action-angle coordinates. These techniques include analytical methods coming from the Galois theory of differential equations, as well as more classical algebro-geometric methods related to Lax equations. This book would be suitable for a graduate course in Hamiltonian systems."--BOOK JACKET.




Arithmetic Differential Equations


Book Description

For most of the book the only prerequisites are the basic facts of algebraic geometry and number theory."--BOOK JACKET.







Fourier-Mukai Transforms in Algebraic Geometry


Book Description

This seminal text on Fourier-Mukai Transforms in Algebraic Geometry by a leading researcher and expositor is based on a course given at the Institut de Mathematiques de Jussieu in 2004 and 2005. Aimed at postgraduate students with a basic knowledge of algebraic geometry, the key aspect of this book is the derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety. Including notions from other areas, e.g. singular cohomology, Hodge theory, abelian varieties, K3 surfaces; full proofs are given and exercises aid the reader throughout.
