    Book SynopsisA study of the relationship between platform and creative expression in the Atari VCS, the gaming system for popular games like Pac-Man and Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.The Atari Video Computer System dominated the home video game market so completely that “Atari” became the generic term for a video game console. The Atari VCS was affordable and offered the flexibility of changeable cartridges. Nearly a thousand of these were created, the most significant of which established new techniques, mechanics, and even entire genres. This book offers a detailed and accessible study of this influential video game console from both computational and cultural perspectives. Studies of digital media have rarely investigated platforms—the systems underlying computing. This book, the first in a series of Platform Studies, does so, developing a critical approach that examines the relationship between platforms and creative expression.Nick Mo

This thoroughly revised edition of The Cult of Mac takes us into the world of today's Apple fan with sections covering things like an opera based on the life of Steve Jobs, repurposing old Macs, professional photography taken with iPhones, Mac Museums created by fans around the world, as well as how Apple Inc. and its public face has changed following the death of Steve Jobs.Trade ReviewPraise for the first edition of Cult of Mac: "Kahney embarked on his journey to chronicle the weird world of Mac addicts last year, and I think he nailed it. If you have iPod-clutching, Macintosh-using, Woz-loving, Newton-worshiping cultists in your circle of friends, get 'em this book. But even if you you're not a HyperCard-carrying member of the club, the book is worth a look. Kahney has uncovered some real characters on the scene.” —San Francisco Chronicle"Mr. Kahney's informal history of the Mac is interspersed with trivia and delightful details, and intriguing photos, and is wrapped up in an entertaining style. This is a coffee table book that only a geek might love — but it's also one lots of people will enjoy reading." —Washington Times"This account of Macintosh fanaticism will strike a chord with anyone who's ardently defended (or cursed) an operating system... sure to end up on Quadra-based coffee tables everywhere." —Wired MagazineWinner: Outstanding Book of the Year — Most Unique Design.

    Book SynopsisIn diesem Buch werden die wichtigsten Methoden der Signal- und Systemanalyse beschrieben. Damit die Fülle des Stoffes über­ sichtlich bleibt, wird bevorzugt an den Anfang eines Abschnit­ tes die Aussage gestellt. Anschließend erst wird die Herleitung und Interpretation gegeben. Der Vorteil liegt darin, daß die Herleitungen kürzer werden. Beweise werden nur in den Fällen geführt, in denen sie das Verständnis fördern. Damit trotz des hohen Abstraktionsgrades und der kompakten Darstellung der Stoff verständlich bleibt, werden die entschei­ denden Aussagen durch viele Graphiken ausführlich ergänzt. Ein Schwerpunkt des Buches sind die numerischen Methoden der Signal- und Systemanalyse. Die numerischen Beispiele mit dem Hinweis (mit Rechnerunterstützung) sind rechnerunabhängig for­ muliert. Zu jedem Beispiel wird eine "Operationsfolge" gegeben, die den Algorithmus in einer problemorientierten Sprache be­ schreibt. Man findet in Abschnitt 19 eine ausführliche rechner­ unabhängige Referenzliste dieser Operationen. Die Operationsfolge beschreibt außerdem den Input für ein lauf­ fähiges Basic-Programm, mit dem alle Beispiele des Buches nachvollzogen werden können. Obwohl eine struktierte Compiler­ Sprache die Rechenzeiten der benutzten Routinen erheblich verkürzen würde, sprach für einen Basic-Interpreter, daß er einerseits auf jedem Personal-Computer verfügbar ist und ande­ rerseits ein Interpreterprogramm zum Experimentieren geeigneter erscheint. Das Buch wendet sich in erster Linie an Ingenieure der Nach­ richten-, Daten- und Regelungstechnik, die mit den Grundlagen elektrischer Netzwerke und der normalen Ingenieurmathematik vertraut sind.Table of Contents1 Einige grundlegende Begriffe der Systemtheorie.- 2 FOURIER-Reihe.- 3 FOURIER-Transformation.- 4 Faltung.- 5 Abtasttheoreme.- 6 Systembeschreibung mit der FOURIER-Transformation.- 7 Diskrete FOURIER-Transformation (DFT).- 8 Schnelle FOURIER-Transformation (FFT).- 9 FOURIER-Transformation mit der DFT.- 10 Harmonische Analyse mit der DFT.- 11 Inverse FOURIER-Transformation mit der IDFT.- 12 Harmonische Synthese mit der IDFT.- 13 Spline-Interpolation.- 14 Approximation der Systemreaktion mit der DFT.- 15 Systemidentifikation mit der DFT.- 16 LAPLACE-Transformation.- 17 Systembeschreibung mit der LAPLACE-Transformation.- 18 Zeitdiskrete Systeme.- 19 Experimentierprogramm.- Sachwortverzeichnis.
