Handbook of Granular Computing

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

Although the notion is a relatively recent one, the notions and principles of Granular Computing (GrC) have appeared in a different guise in many related fields including granularity in Artificial Intelligence, interval computing, cluster analysis, quotient space theory and many others. Recent years have witnessed a renewed and expanding interest...

An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics)

Springer, 2008

This self-contained introduction to modern cryptography emphasizes the mathematics behind the theory of public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. The book focuses on these key topics while developing the mathematical tools needed for the construction and security analysis of diverse cryptosystems. Only basic linear algebra is required...

Theory of Finite Automata With an Introduction to Formal Languages

Prentice Hall, 1989

It often seems that mathematicians regularly provide answers well before the rest of the world finds reasons to ask the questions. The operation of the networks of relays used in the first computers is exactly described by Boolean functions. George Boole thereby made his contribution to computer science in the mid-1800s, and Boolean algebra is used...

Guide to Graphics Software Tools

Springer, 2008

Current graphics software and hardware combine to allow multiple-level functionality and open up new application areas for scientists of all disciplines, and for computer scientists and engineers in particular.

This thoroughly revised edition of this integrated guide explains and lists readily available graphics software tools and their...

Discrete Mathematics DeMYSTiFied

McGraw-Hill, 2008

In today’s world, analytical thinking is a critical part of any solid education. An important segment of this kind of reasoning—one that cuts across many disciplines—is discrete mathematics. Discrete math concerns counting, probability, (sophisticated forms of) addition, and limit processes over discrete sets. Combinatorics, graph...

Light and Video Microscopy

Academic Press, 2008

The most comprehensive guide to understanding video and light microscopy

Most information about the nature of living cells is discovered through light microscope observation. The image seen through a microscope is not a magnified point-by-point representation of the object, but is an abstract representation of the object that...

Into The Nano Era: Moore's Law Beyond Planar Silicon CMOS (Springer Series in Materials Science)

Springer, 2008

Even as we enter the nanotechnology era, we are now encountering the 50th anniversary of the invention of the IC. Will silicon continue to be the pre-eminent material and will Moore^TM’s Law continue unabated, albeit in a broader economic venue, in the nanotechnology era? This monograph addresses these issues by a re-examination of...

Pirates of the Digital Millennium: How the Intellectual Property Wars Damage Our Personal Freedoms, Our Jobs, and the World Economy

Prentice Hall, 2004

Digital piracy. It's a global war -- and it's just begun. Pirates of the Digital Millennium chronicles that war. All of it: media conglomerates vs. teenagers, tech companies vs. content providers, artists battling artists, nations vs. nations, law enforcement vs. organized crime. John Gantz and Jack Rochester cover every side and all the...

Quantum Cosmology and Baby Universes

World Scientific Publishing, 1991

Quantum gravity is notoriously a subject where problems vastly outnumber results. This is no surprise at short distances, on the order of the Planck length, where most of us expect quantum fluctuations in the metric to cause space-time itself to lose its meaning and gravity to be subsumed (along with the other so-called fundamental interactions)...

Automatic Speech and Speaker Recognition: Large Margin and Kernel Methods

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

This book discusses large margin and kernel methods for speech and speaker recognition

Speech and Speaker Recognition: Large Margin and Kernel Methods is a collation of research in the recent advances in large margin and kernel methods, as applied to the field of speech and speaker recognition. It presents...

Swarm Intelligence: Introduction and Applications (Natural Computing Series)

Springer, 2008

The laws that govern the collective behavior of social insects, flocks of birds, or fish schools continue to mesmerize researchers. While individuals are rather unsophisticated, in cooperation they can solve complex tasks, a prime example being the ability of ant colonies to find shortest paths between their nests and food sources. Task-solving...

Fundamental Electrical and Electronic Principles, Third Edition

Newnes, 2008

Fundamental Electrical and Electronic Principles covers the essential principles that form the foundations for electrical and electronic engineering courses. The coverage of this new edition has been carefully brought in line with the core unit 'Electrical and Electronic Principles' of the 2007 BTEC National Engineering specification from Edexcel....
