The 41 revised full papers presented together with two invited contributions were carefully selected from 101 submissions during two...

Part I presents the basic...

The C++ standard library provides a set of common classes and interfaces that greatly extend the core C++ language. The library, however, is not self-explanatory. To make full...

In Java Number Cruncher, author Ronald Mak explains how to spot-and how to avoid-the subtle programming miscues that can cause vexing calculation errors in your applications. An authority on mapping pure math to computer math, he explains how to use the often-overlooked computational features of...

Algorithms for Computer Algebra is the first comprehensive textbook to be published on the topic of computational symbolic mathematics. The book first develops the foundational material from modern algebra that is required for subsequent topics. It then presents a thorough development of modern computational algorithms for such...

The 18 revised full papers presented were selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvements. The papers are organized in topical sections on...

This easy-to-read book demonstrates how a simple geometric idea reveals fascinating connections and results in number theory, the mathematics of polyhedra, combinatorial geometry, and group theory. Using a systematic paper-folding procedure it is possible to construct a regular polygon with any number of sides. This remarkable algorithm has...

This book introduces a general hardware acceleration technique that can significantly speed up finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations and their applications to engineering problems without requiring any additional hardware devices. It provides detailed code demonstration and analysis to help readers get the step-by-step guidelines...

Written by recognized authorities in the field, this second edition of a landmark work provides engineers, computer scientists, and others with a working familiarity with the theory and contemporary...
