Beschreibung

First Edition. vii, [1], 460 pages. 8vo. 9 x 6 inches. Margins trimmed (not affecting the text), bound in blue buckram with gilt titles (NOT exlibrary). Includes all four quarterly issues of the Bell System Technical Journal (Volume 23). Original issue covers were not bound into this example. The article by Rice found on pp 282-332 in the July 1944 issue. Bright, clean, and sound. Text block with red speckled ink. Cloth. Rice's most important paper among many contributions during his time at Bell Laboratories. The paper was concluded in the 1945, January, Vol. XXIV, No. 1 issue of the Bell System Technical Journal. "One could cite other contributions of similar unusual merit, but it is for the monumental paper "Mathematical Analysis of Random Noise," published in two parts in the Bell System Technical Journal, Vol. 23, July 1944, pp. 282-332, and Vol. 24, January 1945, pp. 46-156, that Steve will be best remembered. This long paper, really a treatise, laid the foundations of noise theory and at the same time solved many of its most interesting, important, and difficult problems. The paper has been of utmost importance in communication theory, ocean engineering, material engineering, aircraft design and analysis, and many other fields of technology where random phenomena play a significant role. That today, forty- six years later, this work is cited fifty times or more a year in papers from a dozen different fields is testimony to its enduring contribution."
