Using a bottom up approach the authors demonstrate how it is feasible, for instance, for a cellular device user to communicate, via the all-purpose TCP/IP protocols, with a wireless notebook computer user, traversing all the way through a base station in a cellular wireless network (e.g., GSM, CDMA), a public switched network (PSTN), the Internet, an intranet, a local area network (LAN), and a wireless LAN access point. The information bits, in travelling through this long path, are processed by numerous disparate communication technologies. The authors also describe the technologies involved in infrastructure less wireless networks. 410 0$aWiley series on information and communications technologies. 606 $aWireless communication systems 606 $aMobile computing 606 $aInternetworking (Telecommunication) 615 0$aWireless communication systems. 615 0$aMobile computing. 615 0$aInternetworking (Telecommunication) 676 $a621.382 700 $aKwok$b Yu-Kwong Ricky$0629369 701 $aLau$b Vincent K.

Florence Nightingale David (1909-1993) was the first woman professor in the world's first academic statistics department, served in various British ministries during the war from 1939-1945, and was one of the first women to chair a statistics department in a research university. In this biography, the life stories of David are used as a vehicle to explore a variety of questions surrounding culture and engagement in the statistical sciences. What does it take to succeed in an environment that is not inclusive of your demographic? How can stories be used to bring technical material to life for students and other learners? And how can a nontraditional leader succeed in challenging boundaries and moving an enterprise forward? 606 $aStatistics 606 $aHistory 606 $aDiversity in the workplace 606 $aHistory of Statistics 606 $aStatistics 606 $aDiversity Management and Women in Business 606 $aEstadística$2thub 606 $aHistòria$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aStatistics. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aDiversity in the workplace. 615 14$aHistory of Statistics. 615 24$aStatistics. 615 24$aDiversity Management and Women in Business. 615 7$aEstadística 615 7$aHistòria 676 $a519.509 700 $aGolbeck$b Amanda L$01789862 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910984577203321 996 $aFlorence Nightingale David$94325975 997 $aUNINA
