Описание: System science and engineering is a field that covers a wide spectrum of modern technology. A system can be seen as a collection of entities and their interrelationships, which forms a whole greater than the sum of the entities and interacts with people, organizations, cultures and activities and the interrelationships among them. Systems composed of autonomous subsystems are not new, but the increased complexity of modern technology demands ever more reliable, intelligent, robust and adaptable systems to meet evolving needs. This book presents papers delivered at the International Conference on System Science and Engineering ICSSE2015,

Описание: This 1891 memoir describes the fascinating life and work of the metallurgist and inventor Sidney Gilchrist Thomas (1850-1885), famed for pioneering the method of eliminating phosphorus from pig iron, and thus improving the quality of steel. It covers Thomas` education, career, travels and achievements, and his early death.
Michael Idvorsky Pupin was a scientist and inventor whose important contributions include the long-distance telephone line, and advances in X-ray radiation.
Pupin's route to renown was unconventional; born in the small village of Idvor in Serbia, he managed to emigrate to the United States at a young age. Nearly penniless upon arrival at Castle Garden in New York City, he spent five years working in a series of laboring and factory jobs, while learning languages in his spare time. The hardships he endured in this period - in which he dubs himself a 'greenhorn' - are detailed. Eventually he managed to pass the entrance tests for Columbia College, and tutors soon recognized his keen scientific aptitude and potential.
This autobiography pays tribute to the Serbian culture, toward which Pupin strived to retain an affinity - despite becoming accustomed to the sophistication of America, his rural roots are fondly remembered. Indeed, the author is conscious of being a member of a cultured, urban intelligentsia, in sharp contrast to the humble country upbringing he had in his home country.
Pupin's passion for science and innovation is evident as he describes travelling to further his studies in the Universities of Cambridge and Berlin. Keeping informed of advances in physics and chemistry, the newest advances in which served as groundwork for his own practical innovations.

Описание: In these engaging memoirs of a maverick, Theodore H. Maiman describes the life events leading to his invention of the laser in 1960. Maiman succeeded using his expertise in physics and engineering along with an ingenious and elegant design not anticipated by others. His pink ruby laser produced mankind’s first-ever coherent light and has provided transformational technology for commerce, industry, telecom, the Internet, medicine, and all the sciences. Maiman also chronicles the resistance from his employer and the ongoing intrigue by competing researchers in industry and academia seeking to diminish his contribution in inventing the first laser. This work will appeal to a wide readership, from physicists and engineers through science enthusiasts to general readers. The volume includes extensive photos and documentary materials related to Maiman’s life and accomplishments never before published.
'No one beat Maiman to the laser. How important is the laser? How important are all lasers? That is how important we have to regard Maiman’s contribution.He and the laser changed all of our lives, everyone’s!'
Dr. Nick Holonyak, Jr., Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Physics, University of Illinois at Champaigne-Urbana, and inventor of the light-emitting diode (LED) and co-inventor of the transistor laser
'More than five decades later, we can safely conclude that Theodore Maiman's groundbreaking discovery changed the world. Our modern life just as scientific research would be quite different without the laser.'
Dr. Ferenc Krausz, Director, Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, Garching, Germany, and Professor of Physics, Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich, and pioneer in attosecond lasers and attophysics
'Maiman had the stroke of genius needed to take a different approach [from his competitors]. The sheer elegance and simplicity of his design belies the intellectual achievement it represents. If his invention seems obvious to some today, it was far from obvious in 1960.'
Jeff Hecht, authoritative science writer on the historical development of the laser, author of books on lasers and fiber optics

Описание: Gordon Gould woke up one night in his Bronx, New York, apartment, opened a laboratory notebook and wrote: "Some rough calculations on the feasibility of a LASER: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation." That was November 1957, and the 37-year-old graduate student had coined the name for a world-changing invention. Before he stopped, he had written the first description of a working laser and how it could be used. What he didn't know was how to get a patent. So Gould, even as a radical background denied him a security clearance to work on his own invention, would spend the next thirty years fighting to prove he, and not the Nobel laureate Charles Townes, was the inventor. Finally, by 1988, Gould's legal war had won him four basic laser patents that upheld his claim. LASER is the dramatic story of a brilliant lone inventor who took on the establishment and triumphed in the end.

Описание:
This book is dedicated to the life and work of Ignacy ?ukasiewicz, Polish pharmacist whose world-renowned achievements include construction of the world’s first oil refinery and invention of the modern kerosene lamp. The authors also portray the history of the Galician oil industry and set it in the context of political, social and technological changes taking place in the 19th-century Central and Eastern Europe.
"The work adds substantially to existing scholarship in English. As the author of the only English-language academic monograph devoted to a general history of the Galician oil industry, I can attest that this manuscript adds significant and important information, details, depth of investigation that is not provided in my book or any other book. It therefore makes a novel contribution that will be very valuable to anyone looking for a truly detailed account of Ignacy ?ukasiewicz’s contribution within the context of the Galician oil industry in general."
Alison Frank Johnson
Professor of History and of Germanic Languages and Literatures
Harvard University, Center for European Studies
"The authors sketch the profiles of two outstanding Poles, pioneers of the oil industry – Ignacy ?ukasiewicz, MSc. in Pharmacy, and mining engineer and geologist Witold Zglenicki, called the Polish Nobel (...) This scientific work is an interesting and captivating read. It can be used not only by scientists and students, but also by everyone who is interested in industrial cultural heritage (...)."
