Embedded systems are common in aircraft, factories, chemical processing plants, and even in cars-a single high-end automobile may contain over eighty different computers. The design of embedded controllers and of the intricate, automated communication networks that support them raises many new questions--practical, as well as theoretical--about network protocols, compatibility of operating systems, and ways to maximize the effectiveness of the embedded hardware. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis handbook, the first of its kind, provides engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and students a broad, comprehensive source of information and technology to address many questions and aspects of embedded and networked control. Separated into six main sections--\u003cem\u003eFundamentals, Hardware, Software, Theory, Networking, and Applications\u003c\/em\u003e--this work unifies into a single reference many scattered articles, websites, and specification sheets. Also included are case studies, experiments, and examples that give a multifaceted view of the subject, encompassing computation and communication considerations. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Birkhauser","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47613529096343,"sku":"9780817632397","price":27969.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780817632397.webp?v=1775085908","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/handbook-of-networked-and-embedded-control-systems-9780817632397","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
