A matroid is an abstract mathematical structure that captures combinatorial properties of matrices. This book offers a unique introduction to matroid theory, emphasizing motivations from matrix theory and applications to systems analysis.
This book serves also as a comprehensive presentation of the theory and application of mixed...
Verification and validation represents an important process used for the quality assessment of engineered systems and their compliance with the requirements established at the beginning of or during the development cycle.
Debbabi and his coauthors investigate methodologies and techniques that can be employed for the automatic...
Five years ago, we authored “Text Mining: Predictive Methods for Analyzing Unstructured Information.” That book was geared mostly to professional practitioners, but was adaptable to course work with some effort by the instructor. Many topics were evolving, and this was one of the earliest efforts to collect material for predictive...
This book is meant for research scholars, scientists and practitioners involved with
the application of computer-based systems in critical applications. Ensuring
dependability of systems used in critical applications is important due to the
impact of their failures on human life, investment and environment. The individual
aspects of...
This is a practical book for computer engineers who want to understand or
implement hardware/software systems. It focuses on problems that require one
to combine hardware design with software design – such problems can be solved
with hardware/software codesign. When used properly, hardware/software codesign
works better...
In an age of increasing complexity, diversification and change, customers expect services that cater to their needs and to their tastes. Emotional Engineering vol 2. describes how their expectations can be satisfied and managed throughout the product life cycle, if producers focus their attention more on emotion. Emotional engineering...

Java Deployment takes a very practical approach to the topic of deploying Java applications. First, the book presents the major deployment concerns a Java developer faces and addresses the most common deployment scenarios. Next, the book addresses deployment issues the developer faces while coding a project. Finally, the book presents...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the IFIP TC6 5th International Workshop on Active Networks, IWAN 2003, held in Kyoto, Japan, in December 2003.
The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on high performance and...
The classical factory fades into history as production plants today develop into modern service centers. Problems in management arise for which many companies are not yet prepared: economic efficiency of modern added value is not a property of products alone but of the process. Decisive potential in business now is a question of process capability,...
