As the world becomes more complicated and linked, many of our research questions can no longer be answered using straightforward models. Agent-Based Models with MATLAB introduces one of the most important methodologies for complex systems modeling, called Agent-Based Modeling (ABM), using computational implementations and accompanying MATLAB software code as a means of inspiring readers to apply agent-based models to solve a diverse range of problems. Observing the implementation of a particular approach through code can be helpful for readers, even those with strong mathematical abilities, as it eliminates ambiguities and uncertainties, making the material easier to grasp and communicate. The book comes with a large amount of software code accompanying the main text, and the modeling systems described in the book are implemented using MATLAB as the programming language. Despite the heavy mathematical components of Agent-Based Models and complex systems, it is possible to utilize these models without in-depth understanding of their mathematical fundamentals. For many readers, a more feasible goal is to grasp the concepts of these models through programming instead of mathematical formulations. Agent-Based Models with MATLAB enables computer scientists, mathematicians, researchers and engineers to apply ABM in a wide range of research and engineering applications. The book gradually advances from basic to more advanced methods, while reinforcing understanding of complex systems through practical, hands-on applications of various computational models.

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis: Stepwise Approach for Medical and Biomedical Researchers presents a step-by-step approach to develop systematic reviews and meta-analysis for biomedical and medical research. Systematic reviews are the highest quality evidence in medical research, providing an answer to a specific question, and they can be developed in the form of comprehensive literature search, critical appraisal, and synthesis of the evidence. Systematic reviews and meta-analysis are key elements of evidence-based medicine by summarizing the results of previous studies with the use of specific and reliable methods.Initially, systematic review and meta-analysis were exclusive to clinical trials, however systematic reviews of observational and diagnostic studies have expanded, making it essential for members of the field to master those techniques. This practical reference is a valuable resource for biostaticians, researchers, students, and members of medical and biomedical fields who need to understand more about systematic reviews and meta-analysis in their research work.

Modern Assembly Language Programming with the ARM Processor, Second Edition is a tutorial-based book on assembly language programming using the ARM processor. It presents the concepts of assembly language programming in different ways, slowly building from simple examples towards complex programming on bare-metal embedded systems. The ARM processor was chosen as it has fewer instructions and irregular addressing rules to learn than most other architectures, allowing more time to spend on teaching assembly language programming concepts and good programming practice.Careful consideration is given to topics that students struggle to grasp, such as registers vs. memory and the relationship between pointers and addresses, recursion, and non-integral binary mathematics. A whole chapter is dedicated to structured programming principles. Concepts are illustrated and reinforced with many tested and debugged assembly and C source listings. The book also covers advanced topics such as fixed- and floating-point mathematics, optimization, and the ARM VFP and NEONTM extensions.
