Review Digital Terrestrial Television in Europe / Trafford Publishing:

About these Reports Welcome to the future. You and your company need these reports if you are interested in what is happening to television and computers. There are so many developments happening that it is impossible to keep up to date unless you let others take the strain of finding out, filtering the information and letting you know. Putting an interpretation on the deluge of information about digital television is why CDG exists. The title of the full report is DTT in Europe-The Full Report. This is the newly-researched full report released 15 October, 1998. It covers digital TV in Europe focussing on DTT. This is very topical because digital TV via satellite was just launched in the UK in September for the first time and DTT is due for launch in November. The other major European countries will be following shortly. Key Benefits of the report Updates the leading countries: UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, NL Clarifies the developments in satellite, cable and terrestrial television Explains why the USA is taking a different route from the Europeans Shows how convergence impacts the broadcasting industry Understandable by the non-technical reader Two volumes in this set The Dynamics of Transition - This volume is intended as an intelligent summary for the person who would like to know what is going on and what the main issues are. [+]
Attractively produced in a magazine format, this volume uses an imaginative range of graphics to explain the main concepts. The Full Report - This volume contains the detail of the study. It is written in a clear and accessible style suited not only to the television industry professional but also to others such as commercial executives, lawyers and policy makers who want to learn about the situation in Europe. This report is suitable for those whose work requires them to gain a more in-depth knowledge of the subject area.

Review Perovskite-type Oxides and LiNbO3 Family (Landolt-Bornstein) (Part 1) / Springer:

Data on ferroelectric and antiferroelectric behaviour of pure compounds and solid solutions are critically evaluated and in addition all other properties relevant to the characterization of these crystals are presented in tables and figures. Subvolume A is for oxides and B for non-oxides including liquid crystals. This subvolume consists of a printed version and an electronic version on CD-ROM. All the compiled data can be found on the CD-ROM. The abundance and diversity of the data, however, make an overview of the relevant research field difficult, and thus the printed version is designed to survey the present status of ferroelectrics research and to grasp the contents of CD-ROM. About 6% of tables and 28% of figures in CD-ROM are selected and presented in the printed version.

Review Visual Culture: Criical Concepts In Media And Cultural Studies (Critical Concepts in Media and Cultural Studies) / Routledge:

The study of visual culture is interdisciplinary, deriving in part from the new art history that emerged in the 1980s, the developing studies of design and material culture, and film, as well as the concepts and methods associated with psychoanalysis, semiotics, gender, class and post-colonialism. This collection brings together essential articles written by the most stimulating academics working in the field of Visual Studies. These texts represent both the formation of visual culture, and the ways in which it has transformed, and continues to transform, our understanding and experience of the world as a visual domain. Each volume is divided into three sections, with the first two providing a substantive collection of texts that interrogate the theme of each volume, and the last delivering a relevant case study that addresses the issues discussed. Coverage includes art, design, performance, architecture, film and photography.

Review The Future of ATM and Broadband Networking: 2000 to 2010: Research Report (Research Report series) / International Engineering Consortium:

Designed for both service providers and end users, this comprehensive report paints a detailed picture of how and why high-bandwidth networking is likely to develop over the next 10 years. Although high-bandwidth deployment is rapidly moving forward in situations where corporate operations are clustered either in large buildings or on a campus, the report finds that the picture for regional, national, and global high-bandwidth connectivity through 2010 is less certain. Featuring scenarios, trends, and developments, the guide explores the investment obstacles to high-bandwidth networking, forecasts the future information requirements of end users, and provides projections for the near term.

Review Handbook of Thin Film Devices, Volumes 1-5: Frontiers of Research, Technology and Applications / Academic Press:

The highly industrialized world we live in depends for its survival and further growth on advanced electronic technologies which place a premium on rapidly improved performance versus size, weight, and cost. Small computers, high-definition TV, digital camcorders, flat-panel displays, and robotic systems are but a few examples of miniatured device technologies which are of critical importance to emerging societal, industrial, defense, and space needs. All of these technologies depend sensitively on the availability of miniature thin film components in array and/or integrated formats. This book provides that first multi-topical coverage of the semiconductor, optical, superconductor, magnetic, and ferroelectric devices and technologies responding to these needs. This book comprises five topical volumes edited by world authorities in their fields, i. e. semiconductor junction devices, semiconductor optics, superconducting film devices, magnetic film devices, and ferroelectric film devices. Well-known experts were invited to cover recent progress in aspects ranging from deposition and fabrication to device modeling, measurements, and new cutting-edge design approached for improved performance. This multitopic approach effectively demonstrates the broad-based and pervasive character of thin film techniques that impact and control a vast array of device functions that are critical to developments in computer technology, communications, television, defense and space systems, and industrial and consumer products. Readers are provided with both broad critical overviews and research level analysis and technical details. [+]
