A phase-locked loop (PLL) is a type of circuit with a range of important applications in telecommunications and computing. It generates an output signal with a controlled relationship to an input signal, such as an oscillator which matches the phases of input and output signals. This is a critical function in coherent communication systems, with the result that the theory and design of these circuits are essential to electronic communications of all kinds.Phase-Locked Loops: System Perspectives and Circuit Design Aspects provides a concise, accessible introduction to PLL design. It introduces readers to the role of PLLs in modern communication systems, the fundamental techniques of phase-lock circuitry, and the possible applications of PLLs in a wide variety of electronic communications contexts. The first book of its kind to incorporate modern architectures and to balance theoretical fundamentals with detailed design insights, this promises to be a must-own text for students and indus

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of accounting standards and rules issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that govern how particular types of transactions and events should be reported in financial statements.

This text not only offers a more comprehensive understanding of IFRS standards but also emphasizes fair value, proper accounting for financial instruments, and new developments in international accounting.This Fifth Edition of Intermediate Accounting IFRS continues the tradition of providing useful information to educators and students interested in learning about IFRS. In addition to covering the latest IFRS standards and how they are applied in practice, this edition provides new learning aids to help students master the text

Jackson's posthumously published textbook, A Course on Quantum Mechanics, covers quantum mechanics at an advanced level, presenting fundamental principles and techniques including the Schrödinger and Heisenberg representations, angular momentum, perturbation theory, scattering, quantum theory of radiation, and relativistic quantum mechanics. Particular attention is devoted to the WKB and eikonal approximations, which can be applied to a broad range of physical circumstances. An especially thorough treatment is given to atomic physics. The principles of quantum mechanics are illustrated in applications to atomic, nuclear, particle, and condensed matter physics, demonstrating that quantum mechanics provides a quantitative understanding of matter and light.The book is drawn directly from Jackson’s detailed lecture notes and problem sets. It is edited by colleague and former student Robert N. Cahn, who has taken care to preserve Jackson’s unique style. The textbook is notable for its origi

How can Confucianism lead to business and personal success? Follow the extraordinary career of Steve Tsai, whose unshakable commitment to truth, family and nation helped him overcome poverty and deprivation, led him through two terrible wars, and positioned him to play a decisive role in Taiwan’s development as a modern nation-state. In these pages, he looks back on a life full of important lessons for those who seek success and fulfillment, offering hard-earned wisdom and experience, and a heart-felt optimism for life and humanity. Steve Tsai shares the secrets of his success: family, faith, learning and friends. These constant companions transformed him from a shoeless itinerant student into a driving force of Taiwan’s modernization and ultimately leading figure of the American hotel industry. 1. Modern Confucian Entrepreneur also offers invaluable wisdom for how Confucian values, properly understood and applied, can bring success in organizational management, leadership, investment

The translator, Mr S. S. Liu, who has combined several conspicuous careers in one lifetime, has selected for this Anthology of Chinese Poetry, 101 poems from 47 poets, beginning with Fu Hs?an, in the third century, down to Jennings Wong, in the twentieth. This is a parallel text edition with the Chinese originals on the left-hand page facing the English translations on the right-hand. Concordances to the works of 38 other English translators are given in the Appendix.Mr. John Cairncross, a distinguished poet and skilful translator, who contributed a further seven translations to Professor Liu's, says in his Foreword.'All translators of poetry, it has often been observed, are expected to combine the conflicting desiderata of fidelity and beauty. But the task of the writer who sets out to English the Chinese poets is even more exacting. He must not only produce a work of art in his own language but also devise means of giving his Chinese version a specifically Chinese touch....At first b

This lucid, accessible introduction to supervised machine learning presents core concepts in a focused and logical way that is easy for beginners to follow. The author assumes basic calculus, linear algebra, probability and statistics but no prior exposure to machine learning. Coverage includes widely used traditional methods such as SVMs, boosted trees, HMMs, and LDAs, plus popular deep learning methods such as convolution neural nets, attention, transformers, and GANs. Organized in a coherent presentation framework that emphasizes the big picture, the text introduces each method clearly and concisely “from scratch” based on the fundamentals. All methods and algorithms are described by a clean and consistent style, with a minimum of unnecessary detail. Numerous case studies and concrete examples demonstrate how the methods can be applied in a variety of contexts.

The study of complex variables is beautiful from a purely mathematical point of view, and very useful for solving a wide array of problems arising in applications. This introduction to complex variables, suitable as a text for a one-semester course, has been written for undergraduate students in applied mathematics, science, and engineering. Based on the authors' extensive teaching experience, it covers topics of keen interest to these students, including ordinary differential equations, as well as Fourier and Laplace transform methods for solving partial differential equations arising in physical applications. Many worked examples, applications, and exercises are included. With this foundation, students can progress beyond the standard course and explore a range of additional topics, including generalized Cauchy theorem, Painlevé equations, computational methods, and conformal mapping with circular arcs. Advanced topics are labeled with an asterisk and can be included in the syllabus
