Résumé
Information technology is arguably the most important
scientific topic needed for understanding and participating
in our increasing complex technological world. Using simple
physical arguments and extensive examples the book shows
how this theory can be put into practice. The coverage is
broad and includes topics taught on a variety of courses.
It includes the basic mathematical, physical and
engineering concepts required, and the author demonstrates
their interrelationship in a clear and concise manner.
Information and Measurement will be an invaluable study aid for students in their final undergraduate year or graduate students in physics, electrical engineering and computer science, specifically for modules on instrumentation, measurement science and information science. It will also be an invaluable reference for practising scientists and engineers.
