The Scientific Revolution and the Foundations of Modern Science (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events 1500-1900)

Greenwood Press, 2005

Applebaum offers beginning university students the perfect introduction to the age of the scientific revolution from 1500 to 1800. Many scientific ideas and much medical information improved dramatically during those times as investigators began a relentless drive, which continues today, toward a better understanding of the natural world....One...

The Language of Game Theory : Putting Epistemics into the Mathematics of Games

World Scientific Publishing, 2014

This volume contains eight papers written by Adam Brandenburger and his co-authors over a period of 25 years. These papers are part of a program to reconstruct game theory in order to make how players reason about a game a central feature of the theory. The program now called epistemic game theory extends the classical definition of a game...

Process Algebra for Parallel and Distributed Processing (Chapman & Hall / Crc Computational Science)

CRC Press, 2008

Despite the importance of applications of process algebras for the success of the field, [related publications] concentrate strongly on the theoretical achievements. This shortcoming is compensated for in a splendid way by this book, which brings together the state of the art in research on applications of process algebras.
—From the...

Artificial Vision: Image Description, Recognition, and Communication (Signal Processing and its Applications)

Academic Press, 1996

Artificial vision is a rapidly growing discipline, aiming to build computational models of the visual capabilites in humans, as well as the machines that emulate them. Recent research work suggests that vision is a complex functionality, involving active sensing and attentional mechanisms, and is strictly related to cognitive processes like...

Arithmetic and Logic in Computer Systems (Microwave and Optical Engineering)

John Wiley & Sons, 2004

A practical introduction to fundamentals of computer arithmetic

Computer arithmetic is one of the foundations of computer science and engineering. Designed as both a practical reference for engineers and computer scientists and an introductory text for students of electrical engineering and the computer and mathematical sciences, Arithmetic and...

Discrete Mathematics DeMYSTiFied

McGraw-Hill, 2008

In today’s world, analytical thinking is a critical part of any solid education. An important segment of this kind of reasoning—one that cuts across many disciplines—is discrete mathematics. Discrete math concerns counting, probability, (sophisticated forms of) addition, and limit processes over discrete sets. Combinatorics, graph...

Advances in Fuzzy Implication Functions (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2013

Fuzzy implication functions are one of the main operations in fuzzy logic. They generalize the classical implication, which takes values in the set {0,1}, to fuzzy logic, where the truth values belong to the unit interval [0,1]. These functions are not only fundamental for fuzzy logic systems, fuzzy control, approximate reasoning and expert...

Data Streams: Algorithms and Applications (Foundations and Trends in Theoretical Computer Science)

Now Publishers, 2005

Data stream algorithms as an active research agenda emerged only over the past few years, even though the concept of making few passes over the data for performing computations has been around since the early days of Automata Theory. The data stream agenda now pervades many branches of Computer Science including databases, networking, knowledge...

Principles of Constraint Programming

Cambridge University Press, 2003

This book is about constraint programming, an alternative approach to programming which relies on a combination of techniques that deal with reasoning and computing. It has been successfully applied in a number of fields including molecular biology, electrical engineering, operations research and numerical analysis. The central notion is that...

Cost Estimation Techniques for Web Projects

IGI Global, 2007

Having realistic estimates of effort at an early stage in a Web project's life is vital to the successful management of resources. The principles of the prediction process are identifying the influencing factors, gathering past project data, generating an effort prediction model, and assessing the effectiveness of such prediction model. Cost...

Modelling and Reasoning with Vague Concepts

Springer, 2006

Vagueness is central to the flexibility and robustness of natural language descriptions. Vague concepts are robust to the imprecision of our perceptions, while still allowing us to convey useful, and sometimes vital, information. The study of vagueness in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is therefore motivated by the desire to incorporate this...

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Paradigms for Dependable Applications

Springer, 1994

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Paradigms for Dependable Applications, presents a variety of specific approaches to achieving dependability at the application level. Driven by the higher level fault models of Models and Frameworks for Dependable Systems, and built on the lower level abstractions implemented in a third companion book...
