Описание: Dependability metrics are omnipresent in every engineering field, from simple ones through to more complex measures combining performance and dependability aspects of systems. This book presents the mathematical basis of the analysis of these metrics in the most used framework, Markov models, describing both basic results and specialised techniques. The authors first present both discrete and continuous time Markov chains before focusing on dependability measures, which necessitate the study of Markov chains on a subset of states representing different user satisfaction levels for the modelled system. Topics covered include Markovian state lumping, analysis of sojourns on subset of states of Markov chains, analysis of most dependability metrics, fundamentals of performability analysis, and bounding and simulation techniques designed to evaluate dependability measures. The book is of interest to graduate students and researchers in all areas of engineering where the concepts of lifetime, repair duration, availability, reliability and risk are important.

Описание: Quattro racconti per persone distratte: solo perch quattro, in fondo, significa pochi. Ed i lettori, poi, sono sempre distratti: perch sono uomini e donne. Quindi non c' nulla di speciale, nulla di straordinario, in questo titolo. Forse, neppure in questo libro. Quattro racconti - o forse pi - per chi non si lascia incantare dalle apparenze ma ama lasciarsi stupire dalla bellezza che si nasconde e che si lascia inseguire. Racconti per chi non cerca sorprese scontate. Per chi pronto a rimettere in gioco le proprie convinzioni, ritornando sui propri passi: per guardare meglio negli angoli, smuovendo la polvere, resistendo agli abbagli. Per chi vuole capire, superando i malintesi. Quattro racconti - ma anche meno, forse - di certo non per tutti.

Описание:
Inga is no ordinary 11-year-old girl and it isn't just her crown of white blond hair that makes her different. Standing with the orphan children she stares ahead with a grim expression, waiting to be chosen for a mother's helper. In 1888, girls are expected to cook, sew, clean and scrub the laundry but Inga has other ideas. She'd rather solve problems than clean; improve machines than cook. But then she's adopted by Mr. Duffy to help his wife, the town pie maker. Lugging her carpet bag she trudges behind her new parents who, to her surprise, live in a blacksmith shop... filled with tools Oh the things she could make If only she didn't have to spend so much time peeling apples... or does she? Inga engineers her way through Floyd County Iowa as the Swedish girl who can fix things. But does she go too far? From the author of Emmet's Storm, winner of Best STEM Book, comes the second book in the Floyd County Chronicles, Inga's Amazing Ideas.

Описание: Grab your hat and fasten your safety belt. You are about to embark on a ride which will take you on a whirlwind tour through the bizarre back streets of American politics. If you think politicians are just stiffs wearing suits, think again. The quotations contained in this book evidence the peculiar nature of politicians. They will surprise you, amaze you, and at times will cause you to laugh out loud. This book is jam-packed with over a thousand "unusual" political quotes. This book is not a traditional book of flat, static quotations listing one quote directly after another, but is truly "three-dimensional," including the quotation, a brief explanation of the context in which each quote was spoken, and a related picture to boot. So take a chance and see if you are not surprised, or amazed, or even dumbstruck by what our politicians think and say. You may never look at politicians in the same way again. The "teasers" below highlight the scope of the odd material that you will discover within this book. * Which President, after losing renomination from his own party, deadpanned: "There is nothing left to do but get drunk." * Which U.S. Representative called his redheaded colleague: "A Howdy Doody looking nimrod." * Which U.S. Senator characterized luncheons attended by U.S. Congressmen and lobbyists as including: "anything you can eat, drink, or fornicate in one afternoon." * Which political candidate after losing an election complained: "The people have spoken. The bastards." * Which Governor, noting the corruption of his state's electoral process, quipped: "When I die, I want to be buried in St. Martin's Parish so I can remain politically active." * In this book, you will find: Which U.S. House Speaker chided his House colleagues by exclaiming: "They never open their mouths without subtracting from the sum of human knowledge." * Which Governor vetoed a piece of legislation because of: "bad spelling, improper punctuation and erasures." * Which U.S. Senator (running for re-election), when asked by an opponent to take a drug test, retorted: "I'll take a drug test if you take an IQ test." * Which President appointed future President James Buchanan to the post of Minister to Russia, exclaiming to friends: "It was as far as I could send him to get him out of my sight, and where he could do the least harm. I would have sent him to the North Pole if we kept a Minister there." * Which President defended his drunk Vice President following the Vice President's "slurred" Inauguration Speech by exclaiming: "He made a slip the other day, but you need not be scared; Andy ain't a drunkard." * Which California Gubernatorial candidate said: "Unemployment insurance is a pre-paid vacation for freeloaders." * Which New York Political Boss and State Senator was enraged by a newspaper political cartoon depicting him as corrupt and told a News Reporter from that Paper: "I don't care a straw for your newspaper articles, my constituents don't know how to read, but they can't help seeing them damned pictures." * Which U.S. Representative issued the following press release: "Americans For Tax Reform are lying sacks of scum, and anyone who knowingly repeats this information is a liar." * Which Republican Governor of a Democratic state joked: "Being a conservative in Massachusetts is like being a cattle rancher at a vegetarian convention." * Which U.S. Representative called a former Presidential nominee of his own party: "A Bellowing - - Blatant - - Bellicose - - Belligerent - - Blowhard." * Which Presidential candidate observed: "War has rules -- Mud wrestling has rules -- Politics has no rules." * Which U.S. Representative never lived down the true story of shooting 14 escaped burros (small donkeys) allegedly in self-defense, claiming 20 years later: "I could find a cure for cancer and they'd remember me as the guy who shot the burros." * Which U.S. House Speaker advised his colleagues that: "A closed mouth gathers no
