Geocomputation

CRC Press, 2000

GeoComputation (GC) is a follow-on revolution that is occurring after the introduction of geographical information systems (GIS). It is expected to gather speed and momentum in the first decade of the 21st century. The rationale behind this latest revolution is quite simple. When we have finished creating our GIS databases, set up our...

The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual

Addison Wesley, 1998

The authors have done an outstanding job with this UML book. The definitions of the terms are the best I have seen. The organization and material in the encyclopedia are fantastic!

--Perry Cole, MCIWorldCom

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has rapidly become the standard notation for modeling...

Foundations of Security: What Every Programmer Needs to Know (Expert's Voice)

Apress, 2007

Dr. Gary McGraw, a well-known software security expert, said, “First things first—make sure you know how to code, and have been doing so for years. It is better to be a developer (and architect) and then learn about security than to be a security guy and try to learn to code” (McGraw 2004). If you are interested in becoming a...

Foundations and Applications of MIS: A Model Theory Approach (IFSR International Series on Systems Science and Engineering)

Springer, 2006

This book has three objectives. The first is to present a new methodology for management information system (MIS) development as an application of mathematical general systems theory; the second is to establish a theoretical foundation for MIS development; and the third is to demonstrate the utility of set theory combined with extended Prolog...

Variable-length Codes for Data Compression

Springer, 2007

Most data compression methods that are based on variable-length codes employ the Huffman or Golomb codes. However, there are a large number of less-known codes that have useful properties - such as those containing certain bit patterns, or those that are robust - and these can be useful. This book brings this large set of codes to the attention of...

Smart Structures: Innovative Systems for Seismic Response Control

CRC Press, 2008

An innovative concept, smart structural systems have proven to be extremely effective in absorbing damaging energy and/or counteracting potentially devastating force, thus limiting structural collapse and subsequent injury. As this technology rapidly evolves, there is an ever-increasing need for an authoritative reference that will allow those in...

Secure Systems Development with UML

Springer, 2004

Attacks against computer systems can cause considerable economic or physical damage. High-quality development of security-critical systems is difficult, mainly because of the conflict between development costs and verifiable correctness.

Jürjens presents the UML extension UMLsec for secure systems development. It uses the standard UML...

Graph Theory (Graduate Texts in Mathematics)

Springer, 2007

and guided mainly by the Four-Colour Conjecture. The resolution of the conjecture by K. Appel and W. Haken in 1976, the year in which our first book Graph Theory with Applications appeared, marked a turning point in its history. Since then, the subject has experienced explosive growth, due in large measure to its role as an essential structure...

Circuit Complexity and Neural Networks (Foundations of Computing)

MIT Press, 1994

Neural networks usually work adequately on small problems but can run into trouble when they are scaled up to problems involving large amounts of input data. Circuit Complexity and Neural Networks addresses the important question of how well neural networks scale - that is, how fast the computation time and number of neurons grow as the...

Applied Speech and Audio Processing: With Matlab Examples

Cambridge University Press, 2009

Applied Speech and Audio Processing is a MATLAB-based, one-stop resource that blends speech and hearing research in describing the key techniques of speech and audio processing. This practically oriented text provides MATLAB examples throughout to illustrate the concepts discussed and to give the reader hands-on experience with important...
