Book Description
The Goods and Services Tax, which subsumes almost all indirect taxes to integrate the country into a single market, is the biggest tax reform that has been undertaken since independence. The vision behind the introduction of the GST is not only to get rid of the complexities of the indirect taxes that prevailed earlier but also to bring about ease in doing business. The book has been written in such a manner that it will help professionals gain a better understanding of the compliances under the newly introduced GST Law. It is a very useful reference for professionals, practitioners, corporate parties, and regulators as all the new provisions have been explained in a simple manner. It will be particularly helpful for mid- and small-sized businesses that may not have adequate access to the GST knowledge base.

Cyclic Division Algebras
Author: Frdrique Oggier
Publisher: Now Publishers Inc
ISBN: 1601980507
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
Multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver ends of a wireless digital transmission channel may increase both data rate and reliability. Reliable high rate transmission over such channels can only be achieved through Space-Time coding. Rank and determinant code design criteria have been proposed to enhance diversity and coding gain. The special case of full-diversity criterion, requires that the difference of any two distinct codewords has full rank. Extensive work has been done on Space-Time coding, aiming to attain fully diverse codes with high rate. Division algebras have been proposed as a new tool for constructing Space-Time codes, since they are non-commutative algebras that naturally yield linear fully diverse codes. Their algebraic properties can thus be further exploited to improve the design of good codes. Cyclic Division Algebras: A Tool for Space-Time Coding provides a tutorial introduction to the algebraic tools involved in the design of codes based on division algebras. The different design criteria involved are illustrated, including the constellation shaping, the information lossless property, the non-vanishing determinant property and the diversity multiplexing tradeoff. Finally complete mathematical background underlying the construction of the Golden code and the other Perfect Space-Time block codes is given. Cyclic Division Algebras: A Tool for Space-Time Coding is for students, researchers and professionals working on wireless communication systems.

Book Description
Decoding the Disciplines, a program designed to help instructors increase learning in their courses, provides a framework for identifying and remedying course elements that are most problematic for students. Decoding is a seven-step process in which instructors: 1. identify a bottleneck of learning, 2. make explicit the mental operations required to overcome the obstacle, 3. model the required steps for students, 4. give them practice at these skills, 5. deal with emotional bottlenecks that interfere with learning, 6. assess the success of their efforts, and 7. share the results. Providing detailed information so that readers may develop effective models of practice, this volume provides examples and evidence of the ways the framework has been applied across disciplines and used to inform teaching, curriculum, and pedagogical research initiatives. It outlines how various communities of practice got started, describes the analyses of three different collections of Decoding interviews, extends the Decoding framework using different theoretical lenses, and connects the learning to practical applications for teachers and scholars in higher education. This is the 150th volume of this Jossey-Bass higher education series. It offers a comprehensive range of ideas and techniques for improving college teaching based on the experience of seasoned instructors and the latest findings of educational and psychological researchers.
