Digital Signal Processing and Applications Using the ARM Cortex M4 is the first book available to address hands-on DSP teaching with real-time examples using the ARM Cortex M4. It contains real-time examples using actual input and output signals, giving visible (using an oscilloscope) and audible (using a speaker or headphones) results. Signal generators and/or audio sources, e.g. iPads, can be used to provide experimental input signals.
The book is an excellent teaching aid for university professors wishing to teach DSP via laboratory experiments, and for students or engineers wishing to study DSP using the inexpensive ARM Cortex M4. 

DONALD S. REAY is lecturer in electrical engineering at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland. He has also taught hands-on DSP, on a number of occasions, as a visiting lecturer at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China. He co-authored Digital Signal Processing and Applications with the TMS320C6713 and TMS320C6416 DSK, Second Edition (Wiley, 2008) with Rulph Chassaing, and is the author of Digital Signal Processing and Applications with the OMAP-L138 eXperimenter (Wiley, 2012).
