Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling (Mathematics and Visualization)

Springer, 2006

Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling are two distinct domains of research, with few interactions up to now, though closely linked. On the one hand, Algebraic Geometry has developed an impressive theory targeting the understanding of geometric objects defined algebraically. On the other hand, Geometric Modeling is using every day, in practical...

Newnes, 2001

Newnes Engineering Science Pocket Book is a uniquely versatile and practical tool for a wide range of engineers and students. All the fundamentals of electrical and mechanical engineering science and physics are covered, with an emphasis on concise descriptions, key methods, clear diagrams, formulae and how to use them. John Bird's presentations...

Tensors: The Mathematics of Relativity Theory and Continuum Mechanics

Springer, 2007

This book emerged from courses taught at the University College of Dublin, Carnegie-Mellon University and mostly at Simon Fraser University. This is a modern introduction to the theory of tensor algebra and tensor analysis. It discusses tensor algebra in Chapters 1 and 2. Differential manifold is introduced in Chapter 3. Tensor analysis,...

Geometric Spanner Networks

Cambridge University Press, 2007

Aimed at an audience of researchers and graduate students in computational geometry and algorithm design, this book uses the Geometric Spanner Network Problem to showcase a number of useful algorithmic techniques, data structure strategies, and geometric analysis techniques with many applications, practical and theoretical. The authors present...

3D Game Development with Microsoft Silverlight 3: Beginner's Guide

Packt Publishing, 2009

Microsoft Silverlight is a programmable web browser plug-in that enables the animation, vector graphics, and audio-video playback features that characterize Rich Internet Applications. Silverlight is a great (and growing) RIA platform and games are the next level to exploit in it. But it doesn't offer 3D capabilities out of the box and integrating...

Sparse and Redundant Representations: From Theory to Applications in Signal and Image Processing

Springer, 2010

This textbook introduces sparse and redundant representations with a focus on applications in signal and image processing. The theoretical and numerical foundations are tackled before the applications are discussed. Mathematical modeling for signal sources is discussed along with how to use the proper model for tasks such as denoising,...

Mathematical Optimization in Computer Graphics and Vision (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Computer Graphics)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2008

Mathematical optimization is used in nearly all computer graphics applications, from computer vision to animation. This book teaches readers the core set of techniques that every computer graphics professional should understand in order to envision and expand the boundaries of what is possible in their work.

Study of this...

Algorithms, Data Structures, and Problem Solving With C++

Addison Wesley, 1996

This book was designed for a second course in computer science, which has typically been known as CS-2 Data Structures. The content of CS-2 has been evolving over some time, but there is general agreement that topics such as structures, pointers, and data structures should be taught, along with an introduction to algorithm analysis and a general...

The Cable and Telecommunications Professionals' Reference, Volume 2, Third Edition: Transport Networks

Focal Press, 2008

A thorough reference for any telecommunications or networking professional who needs to understand the convergence of telephony, data transfer, and wireless communications, from simple descriptions down to the math.

Volume 2 of TERB 3ed covers the convergence of telephony and data transport, including wireless networks. Now...

The First Computers--History and Architectures (History of Computing)

MIT Press, 2000

"A cohesive, well-defined discussion of the architecture of early computers."
— Mary Croarken, Business History

"A well-balanced and fascinating perspective on a wide range of early computing devices."
— Nathan Ensmenger, IEEE Spectrum...

Methods of Contemporary Mathematical Statistical Physics (Lecture Notes in Mathematics)

Springer, 2009

This volume presents a collection of courses introducing the reader to the recent progress with attention being paid to laying solid grounds and developing various basic tools. An introductory chapter on lattice spin models is useful as a background for other lectures of the collection. The topics include new results on phase transitions for...

A Transition to Advanced Mathematics: A Survey Course

Oxford University Press, 2009

A Transition to Advanced Mathematics: A Survey Course promotes the goals of a “transition” course in mathematics, helping to lead students from courses in the calculus sequence to theoretical upper-level mathematics courses. The text simultaneously promotes the goals of a “survey” course, describing the intriguing questions...
