Software Abstractions: Logic, Language, and Analysis
As a programmer working for Logica UK in London in the mid-1980’s, I became a passionate advocate of formal methods. Extrapolating from small successes with VDM and JSP, I was sure that widespread use of formal methods would bring an end to the software crisis.
One approach especially intrigued me. John Guttag and Jim... | | Fundamental Models in Financial Theory
This book provides an innovative, integrated, and methodical approach to understanding complex financial models, integrating topics usually presented separately into a comprehensive whole.

Machine Translation (MIT Press Essential Knowledge series)
A concise, nontechnical overview of the development of machine translation, including the different approaches, evaluation issues, and major players in the industry. About the Author Thierry Poibeau is Director of
Research at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique in Paris, Head of the LATTICE (Langues, Textes,... | | Software Abstractions : Logic, Language, and AnalysisSoftware is built on abstractions. Pick the right ones, and programming
will flow naturally from design; modules will have small and simple interfaces;
and new functionality will more likely fit in without extensive
reorganization. Pick the wrong ones, and programming will be a series
of nasty surprises: interfaces will become... | | Workflow Management: Models, Methods, and Systems (Cooperative Information Systems)This book offers a comprehensive introduction to workflow management, the management of business processes with information technology. By defining, analyzing, and redesigning an organization's resources and operations, workflow management systems ensure that the right information reaches the right person or computer application at the right time.... |

Service-Oriented Computing (Cooperative Information Systems)Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) promises a world of cooperating services loosely connected, creating dynamic business processes and agile applications that span organizations and platforms. As a computing paradigm, it utilizes services as fundamental elements to support rapid, low-cost development of distributed applications in heterogeneous... | | Principles of Model CheckingOur growing dependence on increasingly complex computer and software systems necessitates the development of formalisms, techniques, and tools for assessing functional properties of these systems. One such technique that has emerged in the last twenty years is model checking, which systematically (and automatically) checks whether a model of a... | | Learning Machine Translation (Neural Information Processing)The Internet gives us access to a wealth of information in languages we don't understand. The investigation of automated or semi-automated approaches to translation has become a thriving research field with enormous commercial potential. This volume investigates how machine learning techniques can improve statistical machine translation, currently... |
