Description
This is the first conference dedicated to the understanding of the experimental aspects of chaotic behavior in several fields and to addressing the emerging areas of data analysis and applications of nonlinear phenomena. Areas covered are data analysis and signal processing techniques, optics, applications of chaotic behavior, magnetism, nonlinear electronic circuits, spatiotemporal chaos, semiconductors, and physiology. Each paper shows real data and what can be done with it. Emphasis is on the manifestation of chaos in real systems, measuring it, analyzing it, and using it in new and unique applications.
Reviews / Votes
"This well-written and well-edited volume contains the proceedings of the pioneering conference." "I have no doubt that the book will be of interest to a wide range of scientists: theorists who are looking for realizations of their curious constructions, experimenters who would like material incarnations of these, as well as researchers from biology, chemistry and other areas who are attracted by the new and exciting ideas." George M Zaslavsky Physics Today, 1993More details
