This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 36th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science, WG 2010, held in Zarós, Crete, Greece, in June 2010. The 28 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 94 initial...

Perhaps the largest impact that Bayesian networks have had is on the field of AI, where they were...

This book is designed for an introductory course in discrete mathematics that serves a variety of majors, including mathematics, computer science, and engineering. The book is the outgrowth of a course at Portland State University that has evolved over 15 years from a course for upper-division students into a course for sophomores. The book...

This thesis presents several precise techniques that analyze object-oriented languages for security violations, together with evaluations on Java benchmarks. The key question that will be targeted throughout this work is “Can a given statement directly or indirectly influence another statement, and if this is possible, how can this...

Well, the good news is that you...

Uncertain data is inherent in many important applications, such as environmental surveillance, market analysis, and quantitative economics research. Due to the importance of those applications and rapidly increasing amounts of uncertain data collected and accumulated, analyzing large collections of uncertain data has become an important task....

This hands-on guide cuts short the preamble and gets straight to the point – actually creating graphs, instead of just theoretical learning. Each recipe is specifically tailored to fulfill your appetite for visually representing you data in the best way possible. This book is for readers already familiar with the basics of R who want to...

Indeed, this volume...

Building Integrated Business Intelligence Solutions with SQL Server 2008 R2 & Office 2010 explains how to take full advantage of Microsoft's collaborative business intelligence (BI) tools. A variety of powerful, flexible technologies are covered, including SQL...

The practice of compiler construction changes continually, in part because the designs of processors and systems change. For example, when we began to write Engineering a Compiler (eac) in 1998, some of our colleagues questioned the wisdom of including a chapter on instruction scheduling because out-of-order execution threatened to make...

This book introduces readers to the mathematics of computer science and prepares them for the math they will encounter in other college courses. It includes applications that are specific to computer science, helps learners to develop reasoning skills, and provides the fundamental mathematics necessary for computer scientists. Chapter topics...

This book is intended to survey the most important computer algorithms in use today, and to teach fundamental techniques to the growing number of people in need of knowing them. It is intended for use as a textbook for a second course in computer science, after students have acquired basic programming skills and familiarity with computer...
