Based on TD-LTE (Time Division-Long Term Evolution), this book adopts the modular teaching mode and applies the eNodeB equipment of Datang Mobile TD-LTE. Through the specific tasks in each module, it presents such contents as base station products, equipment installation, wireless technology, network testing, network planning and optimization, etc. in a comprehensive and detailed way. This book is divided into four training modules, namely, TD-LTE Equipment Cognition, TD-LTE Key Technologies, Network Test, Network Planning and Optimization. After learning the four training modules, learners can master the basic contents involved in the operation and maintenance of the mobile communications system, such as the hardware structure, maintenance and testing of the base station equipment, network planning and optimization. This book aims to cultivate high-quality skilled personnel who master the testing and optimization skills of base station and meet the requirements of standardized field m

Software testing can be regarded as an art, a craft, and a science. The practical, step-by-step approach presented in this book provides a bridge between these different viewpoints. A single worked example runs throughout, with consistent use of test automation. Each testing technique is introduced in the context of this example, helping students see its strengths and weaknesses. The technique is then explained in more detail, providing a deeper understanding of underlying principles. Finally the limitations of each technique are demonstrated by inserting faults, giving learners concrete examples of when each technique succeeds or fails in finding faults. Coverage includes black-box testing, white-box testing, random testing, unit testing, object-oriented testing, and application testing. The authors also emphasise the process of applying the techniques, covering the steps of analysis, test design, test implementation, and interpretation of results. The book's web site has programming

Each volume in this richly illustrated series, published in association with the Papanicolaou Society of Cytopathology, provides an organ-based approach to the cytological and histological diagnosis of small tissue samples. Benign, pre-malignant and malignant entities are presented in a well-organized and standardized format with high-resolution color photomicrographs, tables, tabulated specific morphologic criteria and appropriate ancillary testing algorithms. Vignettes allow the reader to assimilate the diagnostic principles in a case-based format. This volume combines a practical approach to performing and interpreting fine-needle biopsy cytology of lymph nodes and spleen, with reports of biopsies and the selection of appropriate ancillary testing required for these challenging small specimens. Each chapter contains a detailed summary of differential diagnostic features, supported by numerous high-quality images and case studies. With over 500 printed photomicrographs and a CD-ROM o
