This text is aimed at future engineers and professional scientists. Applications modules at the ends of chapters demonstrate the need to relate theoretical mathematical concepts to real world examples. These modules examine problem-solving as it occurs in industry or research settings, such as the use of wavelets in music and voice synthesis and in FBI fingerprint analysis and storage.
