Cooperative network supercomputing is becoming increasingly popular for harnessing the power of the global Internet computing platform. A typical Internet supercomputer consists of a master computer or server and a large number of computers called workers, performing computation on behalf of the master. Despite the simplicity and benefits of...
Computer systems have evolved from early centralized computing systems into distributed computing systems. Distributed computing paradigms have also experienced a development from client-server paradigm to current mobile agent paradigm. Traditionally, Remote Procedure Call (RFC) is used in client-server paradigm. A client sends data to its server...
Active neuroscientists survey NSCs as potential tools for central nervous system and spinal cord repair by explaining their clinically significant fundamental properties, manipulations, and potential therapeutic paradigms. Their discussion of the fundamental biology of NSCs illustrates the signaling pathways that regulate stem cell division...
Middleware is a critical foundation needed to leverage the development of a wide range of mobile and ubiquitous applications. Intrinsic challenges when building such middleware require the combination of expertise from areas like distributed systems, networking, software engineering, and application development.
Within contemporary society, globalization has emerged as a key concern at the centre of ethical, legal and policy debates relating to health care. Conflicts between public interests and individual rights, the challenge of regulating health professionals and access to health services, and the effects of a global market all feature prominently...
Although the Internet of Things (IoT) is a vast and dynamic territory that is evolving rapidly, there has been a need for a book that offers a holistic view of the technologies and applications of the entire IoT spectrum. Filling this void, The Internet of Things in the Cloud: A Middleware Perspective provides a comprehensive...
The bible of all fundamental algorithms and the work that taught many of today's software developers most of what they know about computer programming.
Computer-based information technologies have been extensively used to help many organizations, private companies, and academic and education institutions manage their processes and information systems hereby become their nervous center. Information systems are used to manage data. The explosion of massive data sets created by businesses, science...
This reference provides an overview of the key concepts related to the major issues of optical Internet, and studies traditionally and recently proposed optical switching paradigms. The concise coverage presents a detailed comparison of optical switching technologies, and covers architectural issues together with topics such as signaling protocols...
The human brain possesses the remarkable capability of understanding, interpreting, and producing human language, thereby relying mostly on the left hemisphere. The ability to acquire language is innate as can be seen from disorders such as specific language impairment (SLI), which manifests itself in a missing sense for grammaticality. Language...
This book delivers theoretical and practical knowledge on extension of Genetic Programming (GP) for practical applications. It provides a methodology for integrating Genetic Programming and machine-learning techniques. The developmentof such tools contributes to the establishment of a more robust evolutionary framework when addressing...
