CRC Press Advanced Chromatic Monitoring (Series in Sensors)

Product Description Advanced Chromatic Monitoring provides a major source of information about the novel approach of chromaticity with examples of how chromaticity may be deployed for various monitoring applications. It shows with examples what can be achieved with chromatic methods in producing relevant information with a variety of test techniques and in facilitating the interpretation of complex data about complicated situations. It will be of interest to postgraduates and researchers in a wide breadth of physical disciplines (engineering, medicine, environmental sciences) and those involved with data acquisition and analysis. Key Features: Applicable to a wide range of disciplines (engineering, medical, environmental, etc) and those interested in science, technology, data acquisition and analysis Provides an extrapolation of new knowledge well beyond that covered in existing literature with regard to dealing with complicated forms and sets of data Addresses inspiring and innovative areas of research including environmental, power delivery and medical monitoring About the Editors: Emeritus Professor Gordon R. Jones – founder and former Director of the Centre for Intelligent Monitoring Systems (CIMS), former Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics, and former Director of Electric Arcs Research Group at the University of Liverpool. He was awarded the IEEE Education, Science and Technology Achievement Medal (1999). Professor Joe W. Spencer – the present Director of CIMS at the University of Liverpool, having been Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics at Liverpool. He is involved in operating a multi-million pound technology transfer unit (Sensor City, Liverpool) with whose establishment he played a major role and with which CIMS has major interactions. About the Author Emeritus Professor Gordon R. Jones –founder and former Director of the Centre for Intelligent Monitoring Systems (CIMS) at the University of Liverpool. The Centre is concerned with researching and transferring technology relating to intelligent monitoring based upon a novel form of methodology known as chromatic monitoring. Previously Professor Jones has held a series of academic positions at the University of Liverpool including Head of Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics and Director of the Department’s Electric Arc Research Group. In 1999 he was awarded the IEE Education, Science and Technology Achievement Medal. Professor Jones has a B.Sc. degree in Physics from thev University of Wales, a Ph.D. degree from the University of Liverpool and a D.Sc. degree from the University of Wales. He has contributed to over 12 books. Professor Joe. W. Spencer succeeded Professor Jones as Director of CIMS at the University of Liverpool and has been Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics at Liverpool. He has been active in establishing a multi-million pound technology transfer unit called Sensor City in Liverpool with which CIMS has major interactions. Professor Spencer gained his under graduate degree and a Ph.D. from theUniversity of Liverpool in Electrical Engineering and Electronics and spent a number of years in industry leading to the post of Technical Manager.
