A unique investigation of the state of the art in design, architectures, and implementations of advanced computational infrastructures and the applications they support
Emerging large-scale adaptive scientific and engineering applications are requiring an increasing amount of computing and storage resources to provide new insights into...
It is an obvious fact now that the Internet is becoming part of our life. More and more
contents are delivered over the Internet. As the heterogeneity in the Internet increases,
content providers are considering adaptive content delivery to achieve better user
satisfaction. However, so far there are still no thorough study of how...
Advances in technology are increasingly impacting the way in which curriculum is delivered and assessed. The emergence of the Internet has offered learners a new instructional delivery system that connects them with educational resources. Advances in Web-Based Education: Personalized Learning Environments covers a wide range of factors that...
This book is the first to pay special attention to the combined issues of speed and numerical reliability in algorithm development. These two requirements have often been regarded as competitive, so much so that the design of fast and numerically reliable algorithms for large-scale structured systems of linear equations, in many cases, remains a...
Get a working knowledge of digital signal processing for computer science applications
The field of digital signal processing (DSP) is rapidly exploding, yet most books on the subject do not reflect the real world of algorithm development, coding for applications, and software engineering. This important new work fills the gap in...
This book functions as the definitive overview of the field of super-resolution imaging. Written by the leading researchers in the field of image and video super-resolution, it surveys the latest state-of-the-art techniques in super-resolution imaging. Each detailed chapter provides coverage of the implementations and applications of...
Understanding digital signal processors made easy through programming examples and project application
This text enables students of electrical and computer engineering to grasp and apply the principles of digital signal processing (DSP) through real-time implementation of experiments and projects. The author, internationally respected for...
An emergent approach to organizational strategy making assumptions that few organizations actually realize the goal of deliberative, top-down strategic planning, and that effective strategy making occurs on a continual basis and is a shared activity of the entire organization. This innovative book provides the first in-depth look at how real...
The phenomenal growth of the Internet has resulted in the availability of
huge amounts of online information, a situation that is overwhelming to
the end-user. To overcome this problem personalization technologies have
been extensively employed across several domains to provide assistance in
filtering, sorting, classifying and sharing...
This book provides the first comprehensive look at the emerging field of web document analysis. It sets the scene in this new field by combining state-of-the-art reviews of challenges and opportunities with research papers by leading researchers. Readers will find in-depth discussions on the many diverse and interdisciplinary areas within the...
The edge and surface inspection is one of the most important and most challenging tasks in quality assessment in industrial production. Typical defects are cracks, inclusions, pores, surface flakings, partial or complete tears of material surface and s.o. These defects can occur through defective source material or through extreme strain during...
"Brain-inspired information technology" is one of key concepts for the development of information technology in the next generation. Explosive progress of computer technology has been continuing based on a simple principle called "if-then rule". This means that the programmer of software have to direct every action of the...
