Preface
Biological systems have been known for many decades to produce measurable signals, which often reveal nontrivial information about the underlying processes at work. It is the hope of the scientific community that from the observation and processing of various biologically-generated signals one can draw unambiguous conclusions regarding the state of a biological system. This “state” is of outmost importance to a variety of applications, including disease diagnosis and detection of the onset of many deadly diseases, including heart attack, stroke, cancer, among other illnesses plaguing mankind today. This text will make an attempt to shed light on the concept of signals and systems not only from the “man-made” perspective, but also from the angle of nature-made or biologically-made viewpoint. Ultimately, the goal of this text is to enable the reader to bring to bear the vast knowledge of digital signal processing to tackle the biological signals in order to
