Cyber-physical-human systems : fundamentals and applications
\"Significant advances in control systems, communications, networking, sensing, and computing have formed the foundation of the field of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). As societal challenges increase, there is an increasing need for human elements to form closer ties with CPS. The underlying interactions and integrations of CPSs and human systems are varied, complex, and highly challenging, and they merit systematic investigation, forming the underpinning of this growing field of Cyber-Physical-Human Systems (CPHS). These systems are being designed to address major technological applications that contribute to human welfare in a wide range of domains, including transportation, aerospace, health and medicine, robotics, manufacturing, energy, and the environment\"-- Provided by publisher.

Spectral Properties of Ruelle Transfer Operators for Regular Gibbs Measures and Decay of Correlations for Contact Anosov Flows
In this work we study strong spectral properties of Ruelle transfer operators related to a large family of Gibbs measures for contact
Anosov flows. The ultimate aim is to establish exponential decay of correlations for Hölder observables with respect to a very general
class of Gibbs measures. The approach invented in 1997 by Dolgopyat in “On decay of correlations in Anosov flows” and further developed
in Stoyanov (2011) is substantially refined here, allowing to deal with much more general situations than before, although we still
restrict ourselves to the uniformly hyperbolic case. A rather general procedure is established which produces the desired estimates
whenever the Gibbs measure admits a Pesin set with exponentially small tails, that is a Pesin set whose preimages along the flow have
measures decaying exponentially fast. We call such Gibbs measures regular. Recent results in Gouëzel and Stoyanov (2019) prove existence
of such Pesin sets for hyperbolic diffeomorphisms and flows for a large variety of Gibbs measures determined by Hölder continuous
potentials. The strong spectral estimates for Ruelle operators and well-established techniques lead to exponential decay of correlations
for Hölder continuous observables, as well as to some other consequences such as: (a) existence of a non-zero analytic continuation of
the Ruelle zeta function with a pole at the entropy in a vertical strip containing the entropy in its interior; (b) a Prime Orbit
Theorem with an exponentially small error.

Performance Modeling and Design of Computer Systems
Tackling the questions that systems designers care about, this book brings queueing theory decisively back to computer science. The book is written with computer scientists and engineers in mind and is full of examples from computer systems, as well as manufacturing and operations research. Fun and readable, the book is highly approachable, even for undergraduates, while still being thoroughly rigorous and also covering a much wider span of topics than many queueing books. Readers benefit from a lively mix of motivation and intuition, with illustrations, examples and more than 300 exercises – all while acquiring the skills needed to model, analyze and design large-scale systems with good performance and low cost. The exercises are an important feature, teaching research-level counterintuitive lessons in the design of computer systems. The goal is to train readers not only to customize existing analyses but also to invent their own.

Mobile technology and the transformation of public alert and warning
\"This timely book provides the inside story of the development of mobile public alert and warning technology in the United States and addresses similar systems being used in Australia, Canada, Japan, and the Netherlands\"-- Provided by publisher.
Book
Engineering Systems Integration
The first book to address the underlying premises of systems integration and how to exposit them into a practical and productive manner, this book prepares systems managers and systems engineers to consider their decisions in light of systems integration metrics. The book addresses two questions: Is there a way to express the interplay of human actions and the result of system interactions of a product with its environment, and are there methods that combine to improve the integration of systems? The systems integration theory and integration frameworks proposed in the book tie General Systems Theory with practice.

Eigenfunctions of Transfer Operators and Automorphic Forms for Hecke Triangle Groups of Infinite Covolume
We develop cohomological interpretations for several types of automorphic forms for Hecke triangle groups of infinite covolume. We
then use these interpretations to establish explicit isomorphisms between spaces of automorphic forms, cohomology spaces and spaces of
eigenfunctions of transfer operators. These results show a deep relation between spectral entities of Hecke surfaces of infinite volume
and the dynamics of their geodesic flows.

Conformal Graph Directed Markov Systems on Carnot Groups
We develop a comprehensive theory of conformal graph directed Markov systems in the non-Riemannian setting of Carnot groups equipped
with a sub-Riemannian metric. In particular, we develop the thermodynamic formalism and show that, under natural hypotheses, the limit
set of an Carnot conformal GDMS has Hausdorff dimension given by Bowen’s parameter. We illustrate our results for a variety of examples
of both linear and nonlinear iterated function systems and graph directed Markov systems in such sub-Riemannian spaces. These include
the Heisenberg continued fractions introduced by Lukyanenko and Vandehey as well as Kleinian and Schottky groups associated to the
non-real classical rank one hyperbolic spaces.
