Engineers around the world depend on MATLAB for its power, usability, and outstanding graphics capabilities. Yet too often, engineering students are either left on their own to acquire the background they need to use MATLAB, or they must learn the program concurrently within an advanced course. Both of these options delay students from...
This third edition of Foundations of Algorithms Using C++ Pseudocode retains the features that made the second edition successful. As in the second edition, we still use pseudocode and not actual C++ code. The presentation of complex algorithms using all the details of any programming language would...
This book provides insight and enhanced appreciation of analysis, modeling and control of dynamic systems. The reader is assumed to be familiar with calculus, physics and some programming skills. It might develop the reader’s ability to interpret physical significance of mathematical results in system analysis. The book also prepares...
MATLAB is an abbreviation for MATrix LABoratory and it is ideally suited for
computations involving matrices. Since all of the sciences routinely collect data in
the form of (spreadsheet) matrices, MATLAB turns out to be particularly suitable
for the analysis of mathematical problems in an assortment of fields. MATLAB is
very easy to...
This book explores the role of Martin-Lof s constructive type theory in computer programming. The main focus of the book is how the theory can be successfully applied in practice. Introductory sections provide the necessary background in logic, lambda calculus and constructive mathematics, and exercises and chapter summaries are included to...
This book is intended to be accessible to undergraduate students with two
years of typical mathematics experience, most likely meaning calculus with a little
linear algebra and differential equations. Thus, specifically, there is no assumption
oLa background inabstr&;t algebra or number theory, nor of probability, nor of
linear...
Numerical analysis is the branch of mathematics that is used to find approximations to difficult
problems such as finding the roots of non-linear equations, integration involving complex
expressions and solving differential equations for which analytical solutions do not exist. It is
applied to a wide variety of disciplines such as...
This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and...
This book is not intended to be a traditional software engineering text — there are
many good ones. Instead, it is designed specifically for those involved in image
processing systems. It provides a modern engineering framework for the specification,
design, coding, testing, and maintenance of image processing software and...
The 11th Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming took place on the
University of Oklahoma campus in Norman, Oklahoma, May 17-19, 2010. The
program included presentations of 26 papers submitted by researchers from six
nations and an invited talk by J. Strother Moore on machine reasoning so well
received that the question/answer...
The aim of this work is to provide a practical introduction to the formal specification of concurrent and real-time systems. It is intended for those with some basic knowledge or experience of computing but does not assume knowledge of the particular problems of concurrent and real-time systems. It concentrates on one group of languages,...
The concept of fuzzy sets is one of the most fundamental and influential tools in computational intelligence. Fuzzy sets can provide solutions to a broad range of problems of control, pattern classification, reasoning, planning, and computer vision. This book bridges the gap that has developed between theory and practice. The authors explain...
