C Program Design for Engineers

Front Cover
Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, 1995 - C (Computer program language). - 111 pages
C Program Design for Engineers teaches introductory concepts and theory to engineers. It uses a procedural approach to solving engineering problems using the standardized programming language, C. This text uses widely accepted software engineering methods to design program solutions as cohesive, readable, reusable modules. Features - Based on Joan Horvath's industrial experience at Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology, the examples and programming projects cover a wide range of engineering applications; Addresses current issues such as cellular telephone network development, space exploration, and image enhancement through exercises which are unique representations of realistic problems; Introduces implementations of basic numerical and statistical methods commonly used by engineers; Includes the classic pedagogy of all Koffman and Hanly texts; syntax displays, program style section, case studies, end-of-section exercises, common error sections, chapter reviews, quick check exercises, and programming projects.

About the author (1995)

Jeri R. Hanly is a member of the computer science faculty at the University of Wyoming. She has developed software for target recognition in collaboration with naval researchers in China Lake, California and has taught software engineering seminars for professional developers of computing systems in the U.S. and Canada.

Elliot Koffman is a professor of computer and information science at Temple University. He is one of the country's foremost CS educators, a former chairman of the ACM Task Force for introductory programming methods courses, and author of a number of successful language texts in Modula-2, FORTRAN, in addition to his four editions of Pascal and Turbo Pascal.

Joan C. Horvath received a B.S. in aeronautics and astronautics from M.I.T. and her M.S. in mechanical, aerospace, and nuclear engineering from U.C.L.A. She has held positions at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, in flight project operations, software development and scheduling.
