Minds, Machines, and the Multiverse: The Quest for the Quantum Computer

Simon & Schuster, 2000

Just how smart can computers get? Science journalist Julian Brown takes a hard look at the spooky world of quantum computation in Minds, Machines, and the Multiverse--and his report is optimistic. Based in large part on the groundbreaking work of David Deutsch, the book mostly sidesteps the shouting matches of the AI debate and...

Principles of Concurrent and Distributed Programming (2nd Edition) (Prentice-Hall International Series in Computer Science)

Addison Wesley, 2006

Software today is inherently concurrent or distributed – from event-based GUI designs to operating and real-time systems to Internet applications. The new edition of this classic introduction to concurrency has been completely revised in view of the growing importance of concurrency

Mobile Fading Channels: Modelling, Analysis, & Simulation

John Wiley & Sons, 2002

All relevant components of a mobile radio system, from digital modulation techniques over channel coding through to network aspects, are determined by the propagation characteristics of the channel. Therefore, a precise knowledge of mobile radio channels is crucial for the development, evaluation and test of current and future mobile radio...

Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

An essential reference for optical sensor system design

This is the first text to present an integrated view of the optical and mathematical analysis tools necessary to understand computational optical system design. It presents the foundations of computational optical sensor design with a focus entirely on digital imaging and spectroscopy. It...

Distributed Control of Robotic Networks: A Mathematical Approach to Motion Coordination Algorithms (Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics)

Princeton Press, 2009

This book covers its subject very thoroughly. The framework the authors have established is very elegant and, if it catches on, this book could be the primary reference for this approach. I don't know of any other book that covers this set of topics.

Computable Models

Springer, 2009

Computational models can be found everywhere in present day science and engineering. In providing a logical framework and foundation for the specification and design of specification languages, Raymond Turner uses this framework to introduce and study computable models. In doing so he presents the first systematic attempt to provide computational...

Fundamentals of Durable Reinforced Concrete (Modern Concrete Technology Series (E. & F.N. Spon).)

Taylor & Francis, 2002

This book will be of particular interest to specifiers applying the principles of the new European Standard EN 206-1 for the first time; to postgraduate researchers in mathematical modeling of degradation mechanisms; to undergraduates of engineering, architecture, and building technology; and to students of advanced concrete technology who...

Kazhdan's Property (T) (New Mathematical Monographs)

Cambridge University Press, 2008

Property (T) is a rigidity property for topological groups, first formulated by D. Kazhdan in the mid 1960's with the aim of demonstrating that a large class of lattices are finitely generated. Later developments have shown that Property (T) plays an important role in an amazingly large variety of subjects, including discrete subgroups of Lie...

Too Soon To Tell: Essays for the End of The Computer Revolution (Perspectives)

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

Based on author David A. Grier's column "In Our Time," which runs monthly in Computer magazine, Too Soon To Tell presents a collection of essays skillfully written about the computer age, an era that began February 1946. Examining ideas that are both contemporary and timeless, these chronological essays examine the revolutionary nature of...

Fundamentals of Laser Dynamics

Cambridge University Press, 2005

The book explores the current state of laser dynamics and provides reference data and basic experimental facts for old and new generation lasers. The most frequently used mathematical models are presented. The author discusses the reasons for spontaneous occurrence of pulsation of the intensity of the radiation of solid-state lasers, the influence...
