How To Be a Graphic Designer Without Losing Your Soul

Princeton Press, 2005

Designers are quick to tell us about their sources of inspiration, but they are much less willing to reveal such critical matters as how to find work, how much they charge, and what to do when a client rejects three weeks of work and refuses to pay the bill. How to be a graphic designer without losing your soul addresses the concerns of...

Transport Equations in Biology (Frontiers in Mathematics)

Birkhauser, 2006

This book presents models written as partial differential equations and originating from various questions in population biology, such as physiologically structured equations, adaptive dynamics, and bacterial movement. Its purpose is to derive appropriate mathematical tools and qualitative properties of the solutions (long time behavior,...

New Directions in Cognitive Information Retrieval (The Information Retrieval Series)

Springer, 2005

New Directions in Cognitive Information Retrieval presents an exciting new direction for research into cognitive oriented information retrieval (IR) research, a direction based on an analysis of the user’s problem situation and cognitive behavior when using the IR system. This contrasts with the current dominant IR research...

Agent-Based Hybrid Intelligent Systems

Springer, 2004

Many complex problems, such as financial investment planning, involve many different components or sub-tasks, each of which requires different types of processing. To solve such complex problems, a great diversity of intelligent techniques, including traditional hard computing techniques (e.g., expert systems) and soft computing techniques (e.g.,...

Software Fault Tolerance Techniques and Implementation (Artech House Computer Security Series)

Artech House Publishers, 2001

The scope, complexity, and pervasiveness of computer-based and controlled systems continue to increase dramatically. The consequences of these systems failing can range from the mildly annoying to catastrophic, with serious injury occurring or lives lost, human-made and natural systems destroyed, security breached, businesses failed, or...

Database System Concepts

McGraw-Hill, 2002

Database management has evolved from a specialized computer application to a central component of a modern computing environment, and, as a result, knowledge about database systems has become an essential part of an education in computer science. In this text, we present the fundamental concepts of database management. These concepts include...

Cognitive Radio Technology (Communications Engineering)

Newnes, 2006

Cognitive radio technology is a smarter, faster, and more efficient way to transmit information to and from fixed, mobile, other wireless communication devices.

Pattern Oriented Software Architecture Volume 5: On Patterns and Pattern Languages

John Wiley & Sons, 2007

This book provides an in-depth exploration of the pattern concept. Starting with a popular—yet brief and incomplete—pattern definition, we first motivate, examine, and develop the inherent properties of stand-alone patterns. A solid understanding of what a stand-alone pattern is—and what it is not—helps when applying...
