Large volumes of data and complex problems inspire research in computing and data, text, and web
mining. However, analyzing data is not sufficient, as it has to be presented visually with analytical capabilities,
i.e., a chart/diagram/image illustration that enables humans to perceive, relate, and conclude
in the knowledge discovery...
The rapid growth of the Web in the past two decades has made it the largest
publicly accessible data source in the world. Web mining aims to discover
useful information or knowledge from Web hyperlinks, page contents,
and usage logs. Based on the primary kinds of data used in the
mining process, Web mining tasks can be categorized...
This book contains papers first presented at the 4th International Workshop on Field-
Programmable Logic and Applications (FPL'94), held in Prague, Czech Republic,
September 7 - 9, 1994.
The FPL'94 workshop was organized by the Czech Technical University and the University
of Kaiserslautern, in co-operation with IEEE...
Welcome to the proceedings of the 2004 International Conference on Embedded
and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC 2004) which was held in Aizu-Wakamatsu
City, Japan, 25–27 August 2004.
Embedded and ubiquitous computing are emerging rapidly as exciting new
paradigms and disciplines to provide computing and communication services...
These Lecture Series in Computational Science and Engineering include the proceedings
of a Summer Program in Multi-Scale Modelling and Simulation held in
Lugano, Switzerland, between August 4th and 30th, 2003. The workshop was organized
by the ETHZ Computational Laboratory (CoLab) together with the Swiss
Center for Scientific...
Language, like all forms of art and beauty, is about making connections and
enhancing life. Any human action, from writing a novel to taking a walk, can be
raised to the level of art. It can also be reduced to mechanics: functional, but
lifeless.
As you study Spanish, you can choose to approach it as an art form or as a...
Crystallization from solution is a core technology in major sectors of the
chemical process and allied industries. Crystals are produced in varying sizes
ranging from as small as a few tens of nanometers to several millimetres
or more, both as discrete particles and as structured agglomerates. Well-
established examples include bulk...
Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are on the verge of revolutionizing digital signal processing. Novel FPGA families are replacing ASICs and PDSPs for front end digital signal processing algorithms more and more. The efficient implementation of these algorithms is the main goal of this book. It starts with an overview of today's FPGA...
Electron magnetic resonance in the time domain has been greatly facilitated by
the introduction of novel resonance structures and better computational tools, such
as the increasingly widespread use of density-matrix formalism. This second volume
in our series, devoted both to instrumentation and computation, addresses applications
and...
This book consists of 9 chapters encompassing both the fundamental
aspects of dynamic fracture mechanics as well as the studies of fracture
mechanics in novel engineering materials. The chapters have been
written by leading authorities in various fields of fracture mechanics
from all over the world. These chapters have been arranged...
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 32nd International Conference
on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency
(PETRI NETS 2011). The Petri Net conferences serve as annual meeting places
to discuss the progress in the field of Petri nets and related models of concurrency.
They provide a forum for...
Fuzzy systems and neural networks have attracted the growing interest of researchers, scientists,
engineers, practitioners, and students in various scientific and engineering areas.
Fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic are based on the way the brain deals with inexact information,
while neural networks (or artificial neural networks) are modeled...
