With VEE 7.0 Trial Version on CD-ROM From the depths of the oceans to the deserts of Mars, VEE Pro is being used to collect data, provide automated testing and to construct remote command and telemetry interfaces. In more everyday environments, it can be found at the heart of manufacturing, process and quality control, and industrial data analysis and management systems. VEE Pro: Practical Graphical Programming introduces you to the fundamentals of Visual Engineering Environment Programming providing tools for writing programs for: data acquisition; test-data processing; process control. Prelabs introduce new programming objects, concepts or techniques. They are collected in a separate appendix so that your assimilation of novel material does not interrupt the practical lesson flow. They can be easily referenced when you are devising a new program. Each of the 18 lessons can be presented in a whole-group session. They can also be studied privately prior to the labs being developed in the classes. You will see the power and flexibility of VEE Pro in action in special labs of increasing complexity based around the monitoring and control of a virtual vehicle radiator. The process begins with the simple simulation of a thermometer and ends with the statistical logging of tests. Exceeding test limits will trigger audio and visual warnings. The six appendixes are valuable tools for reference. They explain how to navigate within the programs, collate related data, technical term explanations, and cross-referenced partial programming sequences and outcomes. If you are a student taking classes in VEE Pro, this book will make your life easier and the learning process more straightforward. If you are an instructor teaching the package, it will provide a simple and effective structure for your lessons and also for the course as a whole. If you use VEE Pro for design or data analysis in a manufacturing/industrial environment, VEE Pro: Practical Graphical Programming will provide the complete and easy-to-use reference you need to develop a program.

This book provides a comprehensive overview on several aspects of remote laboratories development and usage, and their potential impact in the teaching and learning processes using selected e-learning experiences.The book is based on the presentations and discussions carried out at «International Meeting on Professional Remote Laboratories», which took place in University of Deusto, Bilbao, in the period of November 16-17, 2006. Apart from chapters based on the presentations, some others have also been included in this book. In this way, we hope to give a broad, well balanced and up-to-date picture of the current status of remote labs and their role within the e-learning paradigm.

This book provide a comprehensive set of modeling methods for data and uncertainty analysis, taking readers beyond mainstream methods and focusing on techniques with a broad range of real-world applications. The book will be useful as a textbook for graduate students, or as a training manual in the fields of calibration and testing. The work may also serve as a reference for metrologists, mathematicians, statisticians, software engineers, chemists, and other practitioners with a general interest in measurement science.

Innovations and Advanced Techniques in Systems, Computing Sciences and Software Engineering includes a set of rigorously reviewed world-class manuscripts addressing and detailing state-of-the-art research projects in the areas of Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, and Systems Engineering and Sciences. Innovations and Advanced Techniques in Systems, Computing Sciences and Software Engineering includes selected papers form the conference proceedings of the International Conference on Systems, Computing Sciences and Software Engineering (SCSS 2007) which was part of the International Joint Conferences on Computer, Information and Systems Sciences and Engineering (CISSE 2007).

Information and Communication Technologies has enlarged its horizon and it is practiced under multidisciplinary contexts that introduce new challenges to theoretical and technical approaches. The most critical benefit of introducing new ICT technologies in our real world living are the new ways of working that the online world makes possible. Complexity, uncertainty and scaling issues of real world problems as well as natural phenomena in ecology, medicine and biology demanding ICT assistance create challenging application domains for artificial intelligence, decision support and intelligence systems, wireless sensor networks, pervasive and ubiquitous computing, multimedia information systems, data management systems, internet and web applications and services, computer networks, security and cryptography, distributed systems, GRID and cloud computing. This book offers a collection of papers presented at the Third International Conference on ICT Innovations held in September 2011, in Skopje, Macedonia. The conference gathered academics, professionals and practitioners in developing solutions and systems in the industrial and business arena especially innovative commercial implementations, novel applications of technology, and experience in applying recent ICT research advances to practical solutions.
