| | Advances in Object-Oriented Data Modeling (Cooperative Information Systems)This book focuses on recent developments in representational and processing aspects of complex data-intensive applications.
Focuses on recent developments in representational and processing aspects of object-oriented data modeling, covering hot topics such as reverse engineering and work-flow modeling. Each chapter contains a... | | Turing (A Novel about Computation)Our hero is Turing, an interactive tutoring program and namesake (or virtual emanation?) of Alan Turing, World War II code breaker and father of computer science. In this unusual novel, Turing's idiosyncratic version of intellectual history from a computational point of view unfolds in tandem with the story of a love affair involving Ethel, a... |

A Semantic Web Primer, 2nd Edition (Cooperative Information Systems)The World Wide Web (WWW) has changed the way people communicate with each other, how information is disseminated and retrieved, and how business is conducted. The term Semantic Web comprises techniques that promise to dramatically improve the currentWWWand its use. This book is about this emerging technology.
The success of each book... | | Essentials of Programming Languages, 3rd Edition
This book brings you face-to-face with the most fundamental idea in computer programming:
The interpreter for a computer language is just another program. It sounds obvious, doesn’t it? But the implications are profound. If you are a computational theorist, the interpreter idea recalls Gödel’s discovery of... | | Evolutionary ComputationChoice Outstanding Academic Title, 2006 Evolutionary computation, the use of evolutionary systems as computational processes for solving complex problems, is a tool used by computer scientists and engineers who want to harness the power of evolution to build useful new artifacts, by biologists interested in... |

Digital Citizenship: The Internet, Society, and ParticipationJust as education has promoted democracy and economic growth, the Internet has the potential to benefit society as a whole. Digital citizenship, or the ability to participate in society online, promotes social inclusion. But statistics show that significant segments of the population are still excluded from digital citizenship. The... | | 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... | | Distributed WorkTechnological advances and changes in the global economy are motivating and enabling an increasing geographic distribution of work. Today, the geographic distance between an average pair of workers is increasing in industries ranging from banking, to wine production, to clothing design. According to Bureau of Labor surveys of workers, more people... |

| | Design Concepts in Programming LanguagesThis book is the text for 6.821 Programming Languages, an entry-level, singlesemester, graduate-level course at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The students that take our course know how to program and are mathematically inclined, but they typically have not had an introduction to programming language design or its mathematical... | | Scholarship in the Digital Age: Information, Infrastructure, and the InternetScholars in all fields are taking advantage of the wealth of online information, tools, and services to ask new questions, create new kinds of scholarly products, and reach new audiences. The Internet lies at the core of an advanced scholarly information infrastructure to facilitate distributed, data- and information-intensive collaborative... |
