Notă biografică

David Smith has been teaching introductory computer science classes for engineers at the Georgia Institute of Technology since 1997 when he retired from industry. Previously, he worked 31 years for Lockheed-Martin at their Marietta, Georgia, facility as a systems and software specialist with a focus on intelligent systems.  He was active in designing and developing software for the C-130J, C-27J, F-22 and C-5 aircraft, and was the technical leader of the Pilot’s Associate program, a $42 million research project sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

He has a bachelor’s degree in aeronautical engineering from Southampton University, and a master’s degree in control systems from Imperial College, London.

Caracteristici

  • Engineering Examples are interspersed in the chapters, providing robust examples that extend chapter concepts into practice, such as the fundamental principles used to implement vehicle navigation systems.
  • Do It Yourself Exercise boxes allow readers to master concepts by trying what they just learned. Exercises follow each new topic for immediate reinforcement.
  • Style Points clearly advise readers about writing quality code that is easy to understand, debug, and reuse.
  • Hints enrich understanding of a topic by providing a little extra “aside” in places where readers may benefit from it.
  • Common Pitfall boxes alert readers to common mistakes that programmers make, and clearly explain how to avoid them.
  • End-of-chapter material—including a chapter summary, true-or-false question and answers, fill-in-the-blanks and answers, and a variety of large-scale programming projects—helps readers assess their understanding.
  • Each new copy of Engineering Computation with MATLAB® comes with an access card to the password-protected Companion Website, featuring:
    • Six bonus chapters including material on searching graphs, object-oriented dynamic data structures (linked lists, binary trees, N-ary trees, and graphs), and the cost of computing
    • Two additional appendices: Web reference materials and solutions to selected programming projects;
    • Source code;
    • And more.

Caracteristici noi

  • Many new and significantly improved end-of-chapter programming projects
