MDA Explained: The Model Driven Architecture-Practice and Promise

Addison Wesley, 2003

Experienced application developers often invest more time in building models than they do in actually writing code. Why? Well-constructed models make it easier to deliver large, complex enterprise systems on time and within budget. Now, a new framework advanced by the Object Management Group (OMG) allows developers to build systems according to...

Tech Mining: Exploiting New Technologies for Competitive Advantage

John Wiley & Sons, 2004

In the “information economy,” we recognize the increasing availability of
information. On the one hand, we can be intimidated by the overwhelming
amount of information bearing down on us. On the other hand, we now have
tools to enable us to garner great value from that information quite readily.
New information...

Cooperating Embedded Systems and Wireless Sensor Networks

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

A number of different system concepts have become apparent in the broader context of embedded systems over the past few years. Whilst there are some differences between these, this book argues that in fact there is much they share in common, particularly the important notions of control, heterogenity, wireless communication, dynamics/ad hoc...

Business Analysis and Design: Understanding Innovation in Organisation

Palgrave Macmillan, 2021

A logo is usually some form of graphic—a visualisation used by organisations, groups or even individuals to aid and promote instant recognition. When we use logos within this book, they are designed to promote recognition of some of the fundamentally different ways of thinking you will experience.

As a logo...

Electronic Resource Management in Libraries: Research and Practice (Premier Reference Source)

Information Science Publishing, 2008

A pronounced move from print subscriptions to electronic resources in all types of libraries has fundamentally impacted the library and its users. With the influx of resources such as e-journals; e-books; index, abstract, and/or full-text databases; aggregated databases; and others, the shift to electronic resources is rapidly changing library...

Enhancing Architectural Drawings and Models with Photoshop

Sybex, 2010

The first two chapters of this book are related and should be read in sequence. Chapter 1 is about preparing computer-aided design (CAD) and/or building information models (BIM) for enhancement, and Chapter 2 teaches you how to add the enhancements (such as color, pattern, shadow, and lineweight) in Photoshop.

All of the other 10...

Theoretical Aspects of Distributed Computing in Sensor Networks (Monographs in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)

Springer, 2011

Wireless ad hoc sensor networks have recently become a very active research subject as well as a topic of rapid technological progress and large-scale practical development and application activities. However, a solid foundational and theoretical background seems still necessary for sensor networking to achieve its full potential....

A Measure Theoretical Approach to Quantum Stochastic Processes (Lecture Notes in Physics) (Volume 878)

Springer, 2013

This monograph takes as starting point that abstract quantum stochastic processes can be understood as a quantum field theory in one space and in one time coordinate. As a result it is appropriate to represent operators as power series of creation and annihilation operators in normal-ordered form, which can be achieved using classical measure...

AI for Computer Games and Animation: A Cognitive Modeling Approach

AK Peter, 1999

Simply put, AI for Games and Animation: A Cognitive Modeling Approach shows how video game characters can be taught to "think" for themselves. This groundbreaking title points the way for the future of intelligent gaming. While this book features formal mathematical proofs of its arguments, it also provides a worthwhile overview...

A Concise Introduction to Languages and Machines (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science)

Springer, 2008

This book focuses on key theoretical topics of computing, in particular formal languages and abstract machines. It is intended primarily to support the theoretical modules on a computer science or computing-related undergraduate degree scheme.

Though the book is primarily theoretical in nature, it attempts to avoid the...

Distributed Systems: Concepts and Design (4th Edition)

Addison Wesley, 2005

This fourth edition of OUf textbook appears at a time when the Internet and the Web are mature systems, supporting a wide variety of di stdbuted applications on a scale far greater than could have been anticipated when our third edition was published almost five years ago.

The book aims to provide an understanding...
