Algorithms in Modern Mathematics and Computer Science: Proceedings, Urgench
Algorithms in Modern Mathematics and Computer Science: Proceedings, Urgench

Some TIME ago a group of mathematicians and computer scientists (including the editors of this volume) thought of making a scientific pilgrimage to the birthplace of al-Khw&rizmf, the outstanding ninth-century mathematician who gave his name to the word "algorithm". As his name indicates, al-Khwarizmi came from the Khorezm...

Knowledge Management and E-Learning
Knowledge Management and E-Learning

This work embraces two heretofore distinct fields of study, knowledge management and e-learning. In order to understand the impetus to link these two fields by a common thread, it is necessary to understand the two fields and the focus of each.

Knowledge management (KM) has developed as a field from its roots in data and...

Data Mining With Neural Networks: Solving Business Problems from Application Development to Decision Support
Data Mining With Neural Networks: Solving Business Problems from Application Development to Decision Support

In my position at IBM, I regularly brief executives, managers, and computer professionals on data mining and neural network technology. In my briefings, I cover the fundamentals of data mining and neural networks, and I also discuss specific applications relevant to the customers' businesses. Since time is usually limited, my goal...

Quaternions for Computer Graphics
Quaternions for Computer Graphics

More than 50 years ago when I was studying to become an electrical engineer, I came across complex numbers, which were used to represent out-of-phase voltages and currents using the j operator. I believe that the letter j was used, rather than i, because the latter stood for electrical current. So from the very start of my studies I...

German Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)
German Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)

German philosophy stands at the center of modern thought. Without Kant, Frege, Wittgenstein, and Husserl there would be no Anglo-American "analytical" style of philosophy. And without Kant, Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, and Heidegger, the "Continental Philosophy" of Derrida, Foucault, Deleuze, Badiou, and Zizek is...

Persons, Souls and Death: A Philosophical Investigation of an Afterlife
Persons, Souls and Death: A Philosophical Investigation of an Afterlife

Awareness of mortality is the price of intelligent consciousness. This book argues that a person is essentially an immaterial subject of conscious states who, though intimately linked by causal ties to the body, is nevertheless distinct from it. The book also examines apparently paranormal occurrences supporting the belief that some persons...

Knowledge and Computing: A Course on Computer Epistemology
Knowledge and Computing: A Course on Computer Epistemology

The result of the author's extensive practical experience: a decade in computer process control using large scale systems, another decade in machine pattern-recognition for vision systems, and nearly a decade dealing with artificial intelligence and expert systems. These real-life projects have taught Vamos a critical appreciation of, and...

Musical Performance: A Comprehensive Approach: Theory, Analytical Tools, and Case Studies
Musical Performance: A Comprehensive Approach: Theory, Analytical Tools, and Case Studies

This book is a first sketch of what the overall field of performance could look like as a modern scientific field but not its stylistically differentiated practice, pedagogy, and history. Musical performance is the most complex field of music. It comprises the study of a composition’s expression in terms of...

Science in the Age of Computer Simulation
Science in the Age of Computer Simulation

Computer simulation was first pioneered as a scientific tool in meteorology and nuclear physics in the period following World War II, but it has grown rapidly to become indispensible in a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including astrophysics, high-energy physics, climate science, engineering, ecology, and economics. Digital computer...

Data Architecture: From Zen to Reality
Data Architecture: From Zen to Reality

First, note that I have used Zen in the title of this book. I have been asked many times why I used such an esoteric term. After all, what is the meaning of Zen? To clarify the meaning of Zen, we must examine the philosophical environment that gave rise to Zen: Indian and Chinese philosophies. In India, Buddhism arose out of a Hindu...

Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Under Uncertainty: Logic at Work
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Under Uncertainty: Logic at Work

This volume is based on the International Conference Logic at Work, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in December 1992. The 14 papers in this volume are selected from 86 submissions and 8 invited contributions and are all devoted to knowledge representation and reasoning under uncertainty, which are core issues of formal artificial...
