C# Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design requires no previous introduction to programming and only a mathematical background of high school algebra. The book uses C# as the programming language for software development; however, the basic programming concepts presented can be applied to a number of other languages....

Java Programming: From the Ground Up begins with the fundamentals of programming, moves through the object-oriented paradigm, and concludes with an introduction to graphics and event-driven programming. The broad coverage of topics as well as the modularity of the text makes the book suitable for both introductory and intermediatelevel...

Grid Computing was a vision of using and sharing computers and data in the early 1990s. The integration, coordination, and sharing of computer resources which are geographically disperse among different physical domains and organizations became an every day reality. This emerging infrastructure aims to provide a mechanism for sharing...

A major thrust of computer science is the design, analysis, implementation, and scicntific evaluation of algorithms to solve critical problems. In addition, new challenges are being offered to computer scientists in the field of computational science and engineering, which includes challenging problems in computational biology,...

Event-based distributed systems are playing an ever increasing role in areas such as enterprise management, information dissemination, finance, environmental monitoring and geo-spatial systems. Event-based processing originated with the introduction of Event-Condition-Action (ECA) rules to database systems in the 1980s. Since then,...

I became interested in ML programming when I taught CS109, the introduc- tory Computer Science Foundations course at Stanford, starting in 1991. ML was used by several of the instructors of this course, including Stu Reges and Mike Cleron, to introduce concepts such as functional programming and type systems. It was also used for the...

The application framework of the presented research work is stablished in the area of the low-power portable stand-alone devices. Considering as a paradigm application the implementation of future portable terminals for telecommunications, two opposed trends coexist that determine the need for an optimized energy management. An...

Over the past decade,...

The conceptualization of a problem (modeling) and the computational solution of this problem (simulation), is the foundation of Computational Science. This coupled endeavor is unique in several respects. It allows practically any complex system to be analyzed with predictive capability by invoking the multiscale paradigm linking...

FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING is an important paradigm of programming that looks back on a long history. The subject has always been very relevant to people who teach others how to program — the clean and logical concepts of functional programming lend themselves especially well to teaching. Certain industries that use computers and self...
