Space Image Processing
Space Image Processing covers the design and coding of PC software for processing and manipulating imagery obtained by satellites and other spacecraft. Although the contents relate to several scientific and technological fields, it serves as a programming book, providing readers with essential technical information for developing PC applications. The material focuses on images of the planet and other celestial bodies obtained by orbiting and non-orbiting spacecraft. This book is not about raster graphics in general, but about raster graphics processing as it applies to space imagery. Three parts divide the text: Science - background at an introductory level - scientific principles underlying...
Java Programming for Engineers
While teaching Java programming at Minnesota State University, the authors noticed that engineering students were enrolling in Java programming courses in order to obtain basic programming skills, but there were no Java books suitable for courses intended for engineers. They realized the need for a comprehensive Java programming tutorial that offer
The PC Graphics Handbook
The PC Graphics Handbook serves advanced C++ programmers dealing with the specifics of PC graphics hardware and software. Discussions address: 2D and 3D graphics programming for Windows and DOS Device-independent graphics Mathematics for computer graphics Graphics algorithms and procedural oper
A Contribution to the Evidence of the Scale Validity of the PISA Test. (Technical Report IEIA-INEE)
The international OECD PISA [Programme for International Assessment] 2006 test focused on the performance of Sciences of 15 years old students. The unsatisfactory results from Mexico were submitted to analysis, including multilevel models, to explain the origin of their deficiencies. It was clear that a differential functioning behavior or a design skewed against a specific country would produce serious validity problems. Besides the conceptual design of the test blueprint and the intrinsic quality of the items, an evidence of the quality of the test is provided by the Test Design Line, grounded on the distribution of the item difficulties calibrated with the Rasch model. The results of this approach show that the scale validity of the test is appropriate for Mexican students, an information that has to be known by practitioners and educational authorities. (Contains 3 figures.).

American National Election Study, 1994: Appendix: notes, frequency addendum, and questionnaires
Data collection derived from a national survey of the attitudes and behavior of the American electorate. Respondents were asked about their involvement and interest in the 1994 congressional campaigns; whether or how they voted; and about their knowledge of issue positions held by the president and candidates. Evaluations of Congress' and President Clinton's performances as well as demographic characteristics were also ascertained. Other items in the series include questions on partisanship, values, racial and other social issues. Approximately half of the cases in this data collection are empaneled respondents first interviewed in 1992 and 1993; variables associated with those earlier surveys are included as well.
Software Solutions for Engineers and Scientists
Software requirements for engineering and scientific applications are almost always computational and possess an advanced mathematical component. However, an application that calls for calculating a statistical function, or performs basic differentiation of integration, cannot be easily developed in C++ or most programming languages. In such a case, the engineer or scientist must assume the role of software developer. And even though scientists who take on the role as programmer can sometimes be the originators of major software products, they often waste valuable time developing algorithms that lead to untested and unreliable routines. Software Solutions for Engineers and Scientists address...
On Sympathetic Grounds
Résumé de l'éditeur: "On Sympathetic Grounds lays out sympathy's vital place in shaping North America. Naomi Greyser intersperses theoretical reflection on the affective production of space with analysis of vales of tears, heart-rending oratory, and emplotment of narrative and land in work by Sojourner Truth, Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins, Nathaniel Hawthorne and others."
