Welcome to Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Fifth Edition.
Designed for a first Computer Science (CS1) Java course, this text will provide a breath of
fresh air to you and your students. The CS1 course serves as the cornerstone of the Computer
Science curriculum. My primary goal is to motivate and excite all...
For half a century, computer scientists have been working on systems for discovering
lawful patterns in letters, numbers, words and images. The research
has expanded into the computational study of the process of scientific discovery,
producing such well-known AI programs as BACON and DENDRAL. However,
autonomous discovery systems...
This is a book about connecting to the Internet as reliably as possible. This means
eliminating all single points of failure,including having just one Internet service provider
(ISP). By multihoming to two or more ISPs,you can remain connected when
either ISP (or your connection to them) experiences problems. However,there...
Clustering is an important unsupervised classification technique where a set of patterns,
usually vectors in multidimensional space, are grouped into clusters based
on some similarity or dissimilarity criteria. In crisp clustering, each pattern is assigned
to exactly one cluster, whereas in fuzzy clustering, each pattern is given a...
While SAS and SPSS have many things in common, R is very different. My
goal in writing this book is to help you translate what you know about SAS or
SPSS into a working knowledge of R as quickly and easily as possible. I point
out how they differ using terminology with which you are familiar, and show
you which add-on packages will...
Elements of Artificial Neural Networks provides a clearly organized general introduction, focusing on a broad range of algorithms, for students and others who want to use neural networks rather than simply study them.The authors, who have been developing and team teaching the material in a one-semester course over the past six years, describe...
BECAUSE YOU ARE READING THIS, I assume that you share my interest for Microsoft SharePoint. In
my case it is more than an interest, it is a passion! For more than 30 years, I have been working with
computers, from assembler programming to complex software solutions. For more than 10 years my
whole world was e - mail (my personal car...

Two experienced HR communications consultants show how to dramatically improve the effectiveness of every HR message. HR professionals know their programs are pivotal to organizational success, but they also know how difficult it is to communicate those programs effectively. Hampered by legal restrictions, highly complex...
Macromedia introduced Flex in 2004 so that developers could write web applications for the
nearly ubiquitous Flash platform. These applications benefited from the improved design,
usability, and portability that Flex made possible, dramatically changing the user experience.
These features are a cornerstone of Web 2.0, a new generation...
This book originates from the desire to perpetuate expertise in the field of
performance evaluation, particularly for telecommunication systems and
networks. It is obviously impossible to translate into a single work all the
facets of an activity which encompasses many systems and a great variety of
domains such as standardization,...
Crystallization from solution is a core technology in major sectors of the
chemical process and allied industries. Crystals are produced in varying sizes
ranging from as small as a few tens of nanometers to several millimetres
or more, both as discrete particles and as structured agglomerates. Well-
established examples include bulk...
