Without conceding a blemish in the first edition, I think I had best come clean
and admit that I embarked on a second edition largely to adopt a more geometric
approach to the detection of signals in white Gaussian noise. Equally rigorous, yet
more intuitive, this approach is not only student-friendly, but also extends more
easily to the detection problem with random parameters and to the radar problem
Over the past few decades there has been an exponential growth in service robots
and smart home technologies, which has led to the development of exciting new
products in our daily lives. Service robots can be used to provide domestic aid for
the elderly and disabled, serving various functions ranging from cleaning to enter-
tainment. Service robots are divided by functions, such as personal robots, field
robots, security robots, healthcare robots, medical robots, rehabilitation robots and
entertainment robots. A smart home appears “intelligent” because its embedded
computers can monitor so many aspects of the daily lives of householders. For
example, the refrigerator may be able to monitor its contents, suggest healthy alter-
natives and order groceries. Also, the smart home system may be able to clean the
house and water the plants.
This is a practical book, to be sure, but it is also a book about hope and posi-
tive change. I am quite sincere. The delivery of electricity is deeply rooted
in the principle of universal access; when clean, reliable energy is available it
contributes to poverty alleviation, improved social conditions, and enhanced
economic development. In the developed world, we know this to be true. The
digital fabric of our lives is a testimony to the importance of energy security.
Across the globe, we have seen the vital contributions that electrification has
brought to the development of economies and an enhanced quality of life.
Nonetheless, this supreme engineering achievement has languished, and we are
deeply challenged.
n its Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, the US
National Institute of Standards and Technology declares that a twenty-first-century
clean energy economy demands a twenty-first-century electric grid. 1 The start of the
twenty-first century marked the acceleration of the Smart Grid evolution. The goals
of this evolution are broad, including the promotion of widespread and distributed
deployment of renewable energy sources, increased energy efficiency, peak power
reduction, automated demand response, improved reliability, lower energy delivery
costs, and consumer participation in energy management.
Commercial energy storage has moved from the margins to the mainstream as it
fosters flexibility in our smarter, increasingly integrated energy systems. The
energy density, availability, and relatively clean fossil profile of natural gas ensure
its critical role as a fuel for heating and electricity generation. As a transportation
fuel, natural gas continues to increase its market penetration; much of this has been
enabled by emerging developments in storage technology.
