Hypercomputation: Computing Beyond the Church-Turing Barrier (Monographs in Computer Science)

Springer, 2008

Hypercomputation is a relatively new theory of computation that is about computing methods and devices that transcend the so-called Church-Turing thesis. This book will provide a thorough description of the field of hypercomputation covering all attempts at devising conceptual hypermachines and all new promising computational paradigms that may...

Mathematica® in Action: Problem Solving Through Visualization and Computation

Springer, 2010

In this third edition of Mathematica in Action, award-winning author Stan Wagon guides beginner and veteran users alike through Mathematica's powerful tools for mathematical exploration. The transition to Mathematica 7 is made smooth with plenty of examples and case studies that utilize Mathematica's newest tools, such as...

Uncertainty and Optimization in Structural Mechanics (Mechanical Engineering and Solid Mechanics)

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

Optimization is generally a reduction operation of a definite quantity. This process naturally takes place in our environment and through our activities. For example, many natural systems evolve, in order to minimize their potential energy. Modeling these phenomena then largely relies on our capacity to artificially reproduce these processes....

MATLAB Guide

SIAM, 2005

MATLAB is an interactive system for numerical computation that is widely used for teaching and research in industry and academia. It provides a modern programming language and problem solving environment, with powerful data structures, customizable graphics, and easy-to-use editing and debugging tools. This second edition of MATLAB Guide...

Computability and Complexity: From a Programming Perspective (Foundations of Computing)

MIT Press, 1997

Computability and complexity theory should be of central concern to practitioners as well as theorists. Unfortunately, however, the field is known for its impenetrability. Neil Jones's goal as an educator and author is to build a bridge between computability and complexity theory and other areas of computer science, especially programming. In a...

Nostradamus 2013: Prediction, Modeling and Analysis of Complex Systems (Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing)

Springer, 2013

Prediction of behavior of the dynamical systems, analysis and modeling of its structure is vitally important problem in engineering, economy and science today.

Examples of such systems can be seen in the world around us and of course in almost every scientific discipline including such “exotic” domains like the...

A Numerical Library in Java for Scientists and Engineers

CRC Press, 2003

At last researchers have an inexpensive library of Java-based numeric procedures for use in scientific computation. The first and only book of its kind, A Numeric Library in Java for Scientists and Engineers is a translation into Java of the library NUMAL (NUMerical procedures in ALgol 60).

This groundbreaking text presents...

Experimental Research in Evolutionary Computation: The New Experimentalism (Natural Computing Series)

Springer, 2006

Experimentation is necessary - a purely theoretical approach is not reasonable. The new experimentalism, a development in the modern philosophy of science, considers that an experiment can have a life of its own. It provides a statistical methodology to learn from experiments, where the experimenter should distinguish between statistical...

Concurrency, Graphs and Models: Essays Dedicated to Ugo Montanari on the Occasion of His 65th Birthday

Springer, 2008

This Festschrift volume, pubished in honor of Ugo Montanari on the occasion of his 65^th birthday, contains 43 papers, written by friends and colleagues, all leading scientists in their own right, who congregated at a celebratory symposium held on June 12, 2008, in Pisa.

The volume consists of seven sections, six of...

Microcomputer Quantum Mechanics

Adam Hilger, 1986

How sad to learn a language and then to have nothing to say. This is, however, a very common situation in computing. Students learn how to write simple programs, but there is often nothing upon which they can test their new-found skills and no way of building upon their experience by using the computer on real or even realistic problems. Dr...

Algorithms and Computation: 21st International Symposium, ISAAC 2010

Springer, 2011

This volume contains the proceedings of the 21st Annual International Symposium on Algorithms and Computations (ISAAC 2010), held in Jeju, Korea during December 15–17, 2010. Past editions have been held in Tokyo, Taipei, Nagoya, Hong Kong, Beijing, Cairns, Osaka, Singapore, Taejon, Chennai, Taipei, Christchurch, Vancouver, Kyoto, Hong...

Quantum Computing: A Gentle Introduction (Scientific and Engineering Computation)

MIT Press, 2011

The combination of two of the twentieth century's most influential and revolutionary scientific theories, information theory and quantum mechanics, gave rise to a radically new view of computing and information. Quantum information processing explores the implications of using quantum mechanics instead of classical mechanics to model...
