This book is a state of the art resource that robotics researchers and engineers can use to make their robots and autonomous vehicles smarter. Readers will be able to describe metareasoning, select an appropriate metareasoning approach, and synthesize metareasoning policies. Metareasoning for Robots adopts a systems engineering perspective in which metareasoning is an approach that can improve the overall robot or autonomous system, not just one component or subsystem. This book introduces key concepts, discusses design options for metareasoning approaches and policies, and presents approaches for testing and evaluation of metareasoning policies. This book is for engineers and programmers who wish to design a better robot. It describes Metareasoning, a type of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that one can use to improve the robot’s ability to reason in the face of its limited resources and in a dynamic, uncertain environment. Metareasoning can select the best planning algorithm, recover from a reasoning process failure, and adjust the parameters of a reasoning algorithm. Although metareasoning has been discussed for many years, only now are engineers and programmers beginning to use it to design more intelligent robots that are safer and more reliable.

Robots are utilized more and more frequently nowadays. They are employed in industrial production processes and human daily life with many more promising prospects for applications. As the depth and breadth of robotics applications continue to expand, robots are expected to work in dynamic and unknown environments to meet more demanding requirements for complex and diverse tasks. Remote control of robots with semi-autonomous capabilities, also known as telerobotics, is a popular and well-developed area which has attracted considerable attention from academia and industry. Telerobots are widely used for missions in hazardous environments, because state-of-the-art autonomous robots cannot perform all required by themselves. Many relevant algorithms and techniques have been developed to address the limitations of physical human–robot interaction (pHRI), perception, and learning capabilities in telerobot development. Among these approaches, teleoperation and robot learning have been proven to enhance performance of telerobots with higher stability and efficiency.

This book is a practical engineering guide to microwave material measurements for both laboratory and manufacturing/field environments, including nondestructive inspection (NDI) and nondestructive evaluation (NDE). The book covers proven methods for characterizing materials at microwave frequencies, including both resonant and wide-bandwidth techniques, and gives you the necessary theory and equations for implementing these methods. You’ll understand how to invert dielectric and/or magnetic material properties from free space transmission and reflection, and how to measure traveling wave attenuation. You’ll also know how to measure dielectric and/or magnetic material properties from transmission line fixtures and learn how to use computational electromagnetic modeling with a measurement fixture. The book shows you how to build and use microwave NDE equipment for radomes and/or structural dielectric materials. This is an excellent resource for Engineers/scientists conducting or analyzing RF/Microwave/MMW material measurements for applications in electromagnetic materials, as well as those who are developing or applying microwave non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods to their manufacturing problems. A number of methods exist for characterizing materials at RF and microwave frequencies, including both resonant and wide-bandwidth techniques. These different techniques are like tools in a toolbox, and each has its advantages and disadvantages. However, this book focuses on the wideband, non-resonant methods as they are applicable to the widest range of materials and are often more practical to use in nonlaboratory environments.

Readers will find sufficient details to enable the design and development of technical solutions to achieve advanced information fusion as well as command and control concepts. The book approaches distributed naval operations and the role of ISR by applying advanced technologies and addressing future conflicts, providing naval officers and engineers with the information needed to plan and develop advanced systems. This is a great resource for anyone in the ISR, intelligence, space, antisubmarine warfare, electronic warfare, and surface warfare disciplines who are looking for an in-depth understanding of advanced ISR operations and technologies. This text is designed to help naval officers and technical professionals to understand maritime threats and advanced naval ISR to support DMO to counter complex threats. The book describes the complexity of achieving seabed-to-space sensor coordination on a distributed network, the fusion of ISR information, and decision-making support.

The Raspberry Pi can do all the types of things you expect from a regular PC – everything from browsing the internet and playing games to watching movies and listening to music. But Raspberry Pi is much more than a modern computer. This book will begin with the peripherals you’ll need and how to set it up and install distros familiar to you. Raspbian tutorials then introduce you to the creative potential of the device. A weather station, music streamer and Twitter-powered LAMP are a few of the many project tutorials we’ve shown you how to create, and there’s also a section on how to get started with Scratch and Python programming. Several distros of Linux run on the Raspberry Pi, including Arch Linux, Debian "wheezy", and Raspbian — a Pi-optimised version of Debian. The PI, again like its predecessors, can interact outside of itself via easy-to-use sensors that communicate with it through its GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) interface.

This book provides an overview of current hardware security problems and highlights how these issues can be efficiently addressed using computer-aided design (CAD) tools. Authors are from CAD developers, IP developers, SOC designers as well as SoC verification experts. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of SoC security vulnerabilities and how to overcome them, through an efficient combination of proactive countermeasures and a wide variety of CAD solutions. Emerging hardware security vulnerabilities are menacing since it is almost impossible to amend the design after fabrication. Recent studies reported vulnerabilities, including side-channel leakage, information leakage, access control violations, malicious functionality, etc. Software-level security mechanisms can easily bypass these attacks and put the devices or systems at risk. Increased design complexity, aggressive time to markets, and exotic hardware attacks portent the security of hardware designs. Ensuring the security of system-on-chip (SoC) in terms of trustworthiness, privacy, and reliability is exacting for its wide usage.
