This updated textbook provides a balanced, seamless treatment of both classic, analytic methods and contemporary, computer-based techniques for conceptualizing and designing a structure. New to the se

This book is ideal for a first or second year discrete mathematics course for mathematics, engineering, and computer science majors. The author has extensively class-tested early conceptions of the book over the years and supplements mathematical arguments with informal discussions to aid readers in understanding the presented topics. "Safe" - that is, paradox-free - informal set theory is introduced following on the heels of Russell's Paradox as well as the topics of finite, countable, and uncountable sets with an exposition and use of Cantor's diagonalisation technique. Predicate logic "for the user" is introduced along with axioms and rules and extensive examples. Partial orders and the minimal condition are studied in detail with the latter shown to be equivalent to the induction principle. Mathematical induction is illustrated with several examples and is followed by a thorough exposition of inductive definitions of functions and sets. Techniques for solving recurrence relations i

The book focuses on the design, materials, process, fabrication, and reliability of chiplet design and heterogeneous integraton packaging. Both principles and engineering practice have been addressed, with more weight placed on engineering practice. This is achieved by providing in-depth study on a number of major topics such as chip partitioning, chip splitting, multiple system and heterogeneous integration with TSV-interposers, multiple system and heterogeneous integration with TSV-less interposers, chiplets lateral communication, system-in-package, fan-out wafer/panel-level packaging, and various Cu-Cu hybrid bonding.The book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in fields of electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials sciences, and industry engineering, etc.

The identity of Taiwan is a matter of intense local and international debate. This book shows how engineers helped produce two distinct visions of the land of Taiwan and its people, elevating the value of engineering as a career path in the process.The technical work of engineers that typically avoids partisan politics can actually contribute to partisan differences and conflict because engineers have different identities, commitments, and forms of knowledge. In most countries, the rise of engineering is about the emergence of a single dominant vision of the country. In Taiwan, two distinct visions of the land and its people emerged, owing to the presence of two distinct geographical identities--islander and mainlander.The unique collaboration among small and large companies in the electronics industry proved to be transformative, producing an "abnormal club" of mainlander and islander engineers, as one mixed group had earlier called itself. However, because the two collections of engi
