This fourth edition of OUf textbook appears at a time when the Internet and the Web are
mature systems, supporting a wide variety of di stdbuted applications on a scale far
greater than could have been anticipated when our third edition was published almost
five years ago.
Based on a new classification of algorithm design techniques and a clear delineation of analysis methods, Introduction to the Design and Analysis of Algorithms, 2e presents the subject in a truly innovative manner. Written in a reader-friendly style, the book encourages broad problem-solving skills while thoroughly covering the...
Psychology at the beginning of the twenty-first century has
become a highly diverse field of scientific study and applied
technology. Psychologists commonly regard their discipline
as the science of behavior, and the American Psychological
Association has formally designated 2000 to 2010 as the
“Decade of...
The interdisciplinary field of marine chemical ecology is an expanding and dynamic science. It is no surprise that the breadth of marine organisms studied expanded in concert with developments in underwater technology. With its up-to-date subject reviews by experts, Marine Chemical Ecology is the most current, comprehensive book on the...
Since the first attempts to model proteins on a computer began almost thirty years ago, our understanding of protein structure and dynamics has dramatically increased. Spectroscopic measurement techniques continue to improve in resolution and sensitivity, allowing a wealth of information to be obtained with regard to the kinetics of protein...
The most authoritative contemporary textbook on the core components of the rapidly developing medical disclipline known as Musculoskeletal Medicine - the "Bible" for clinicians, both medical practitioners and therapists, who wish to advance their knowledge of the evaluation and non-surgical management of back pain and a range of...
J.N. Reddy's, An Introduction to the Finite Element Method, third edition is an update of one of the most popular FEM textbooks available. The book retains its strong conceptual approach, clearly examining the mathematical underpinnings of FEM, and providing a general approach of engineering application areas.
Presentations have become the de facto business communication
tool. Companies are started, products are
launched, climate systems are saved—possibly based on
the quality of presentations. Likewise, ideas, endeavors,
and even careers can be cut short due to ineffective
communication. Out of the millions of presentations...
The twelfth edition of Calculus for Business, Economics, Life Sciences, and Social
Sciences is designed for a one- or two-term course in calculus for students who have
had one to two years of high school algebra or the equivalent. The book s overall
approach, refined by the authors experience with large sections of college freshmen,...
Unsupervised Signal Processing: Channel Equalization and Source Separation provides a unified, systematic, and synthetic presentation of the theory of unsupervised signal processing. Always maintaining the focus on a signal processing-oriented approach, this book describes how the subject has evolved and assumed a wider scope...
This book provides readers with a solid set of diversified and essential tools for the theoretical modeling and control of complex robotic systems, as well as for digital human modeling and realistic motion generation. Following a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of robotic kinematics, dynamics and control systems design, the...
While compilers for high-level programming languages are large complex software systems, they have particular characteristics that differentiate them from other software systems. Their functionality is almost completely well-defined – ideally there exist complete precise descriptions of the source and target languages. Additional...
