Biography
Kirsten Weide-Zaage, Malgorzata Chrzanowska-Jeske
"Engineers are developing electronic systems for applications in environments significantly more taxing than those seen in classical computing applications. This book exposes engineers to the range of challenges faced and fosters an understanding of the approaches useful to succeed in those taxing application environments. It has an outstanding overview of the challenges to design electronic systems to operate in the presence of hazards in extreme environments."
