 Mac OS X for Unix Geeks (Leopard)
Once upon a time, Unix came with only a few standard utilities. If you were lucky, it included a C compiler. When setting up a new Unix system, you’d have to crawl the Net looking for important software: Perl, gcc, bison, flex, less, Emacs, and other utilities and languages. That was a lot of software to download through a 28.8-Kbps... | | Modeling and Reasoning with Bayesian Networks
Bayesian networks have received a lot of attention over the last few decades from both scientists and engineers, and across a number of fields, including artificial intelligence (AI), statistics, cognitive science, and philosophy.
Perhaps the largest impact that Bayesian networks have had is on the field of AI, where they were... | | Steps in Scala: An Introduction to Object-Functional Programming
Scala is a relatively new programming language that was designed by Martin Odersky and released in 2003. The distinguishing features of Scala include a seamless integration of functional programming features into an otherwise objectoriented language. Scala owes its name to its ability to scale, that is, it is a language that can grow by... |

A Logical Approach to Discrete Math (Monographs in Computer Science)
This text attempts to change the way we teach logic to beginning students. Instead of teaching logic as a subject in isolation, we regard it as a basic tool and show how to use it. We strive to give students a skill in the propositional and predicate calculi and then to exercise that skill thoroughly in applications that arise in computer... | | Essential Matlab for Engineers and Scientists, Fourth Edition
The main reason for a fourth edition of Essential MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists is to keep up with MATLAB, now in its latest version (7.7 Version 2008B). Like the previous editions, this one presents MATLAB as a problemsolving tool for professionals in science and engineering, as well as students in those fields, who have no prior... | | Learning Classifier Systems: From Foundations to Applications
Learning classi er systems are a machine learning paradigm introduced by John Holland in 1976. They are rule-based systems in which learning is viewed as a process of ongoing adaptation to a partially unknown environment through genetic algorithms and temporal di erence learning.
From the beginning, classi er systems have attracted... |

Effortless E-Commerce with PHP and MySQL
Electronic commerce has been an important and viable part of the Internet for well over a decade now. From the behemoths like Amazon.com to the mom-and-pop online stores, e-commerce is performed in a number of ways. Despite the dozen, or hundred, of failures for every single commercial success, e-commerce can still be an excellent business... | | Real World Camera Raw with Adobe Photoshop CS5
If you’re reading this book because you want to be told that digital really is better than film, look elsewhere. The term “digital photography” may still be in current use, but sooner rather than later, it will be replaced by the simple term “photography.” If you want to be told that shooting digital raw is... | | Ordering Disorder: Grid Principles for Web Design (Voices That Matter)
At some level, design can be seen as a method of using creativity to impose tyranny on the world. Not tyranny in its classical sense, but rather tyranny on a much more modest, much more personal scale.
In the progression from problem to idea to solution, the designer may describe what she does in commercial terms (business... |
