Synopses & Reviews
This book uniquely combines new advances in the electromagnetic and the circuits&systems theory. It integrates both fields regarding computational aspects of common interest. Emphasized subjects are those methods which mimic brain-like and electrodynamic behaviour; among these are cellular neural networks, chaos and chaotic dynamics, attractor-based computation and stream ciphers. The book contains carefully selected contributions from the Symposium CCN2005. Pictures from the bestowal of Honorary Doctorate degrees to Leon O. Chua and Leopold B. Felsen are included.
Synopsis
The Symposium CCN2005, 'Complex Computing-Networks: A Link between Brain-Like and Wave-Oriented Electrodynamics Algorithms' was held at the Dogus University, Istanbul in June 2005. It uniquely combines the electromagnetic and circuits theory disciplines. As a result, this proceedings-book presents recent advances in the fields of electromagnetics, nonlinear systems, and their computational aspects. Included are celebration-documents of the bestowal of the honorary doctoral degree on Leopold B. Felsen and Leon Chua.
Synopsis
This book contains the ceremonials and the proceedings pertaining to the Int- national Symposium CCN2005 on "Complex Computing-Networks: A Link between Brain-like and Wave-Oriented Electrodynamics Algorithms," convened at Do ?u ? University of Istanbul, Turkey, on 13-14 June 2005, in connection with the bestowal of the honorary doctorate degrees on Professors Leopold B. Felsen and Leon O. Chua, for their extraordinary achievements in electromagnetics, and n- linear systems, respectively. The symposium was co-organized by Cem Goknar and Levent Sevgi, in consultation with Leopold B. Felsen and Leon O. Chua. Istanbul is a city with wonderful natural and historical surroundings, a city not only interconnecting Asia and Europe but also Eastern and Western cultures. Therefore, CCN2005 was a memorable event not only in the lifetime of Drs. Felsen, Chua, and their families, but also for all the other participants who were there to congratulate the recipients and participate in the symposium.
