Interest in and needs for provenance are growing as data proliferate. Data are increasing in a wide array of application areas, including scientific workflow systems, logical reasoning systems, text extraction, social media, and linked data. As data volumes expand and as applications become more hybrid and distributed in nature, there is...

The ServiceWave conference series is committed to being the premier European forum for researchers, educators and industrial practitioners to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and concerns in software services (or the “Future of the Internet of Service”) and related underlying infrastructure...

We design to elicit responses from people. We want them to buy something, read more, or take action of some kind. Designing without understanding what makes people act the way they do is like exploring a new city without a map: results will be haphazard, confusing, and inefficient. This book combines real science and research with practical...

Welcome to the proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management held in Portland, Oregon, where it celebrated its 30th birthday. The first incarnation of SSDBM (then called the Workshop on Statistical Database Management) took place in Menlo Park, California, in December 1981. Since...

The 10th International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems, ITS 2010, continued the bi-annual series of top-flight international conferences on the use of advanced educational technologies that are adaptive to users or groups of users. These highly interdisciplinary conferences bring together researchers in the learning sciences,...

CALCO, the International Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science, is a high-level, bi-annual event formed by joining CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). CALCO aims to bring together researchers and practitioners with...

Approximation methods are of vital importance in many challenging applications from computational science and engineering. This book collects papers from world experts in a broad variety of relevant applications of approximation theory, including pattern recognition and machine learning, multiscale modelling of fluid flow, metrology,...

Advanced Crime Scene Photography developed over time and out of my experiences as a crime scene investigator with a large metropolitan police department. Like any major city, violent crime is prevalent, offering numerous opportunities to utilize the different skills and techniques learned and evolved through numerous schools, scene...
