 | | | | Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing (Springer Reference)
Parallelism, the capability of a computer to execute operations concurrently, has been a constant throughout the
history of computing. It impacts hardware, software, theory, and applications. The fastest machines of the past few
decades, the supercomputers, owe their performance advantage to parallelism. Today, physical limitations... |

Generic Inference: A Unifying Theory for Automated Reasoning
Abstract mathematical structures usually have a large number of models. Algorithms
based on operations and laws of such structures therefore have an identical form:
they are generic. This means that for each particular instance of the structure, only
the basic operations have to be adapted, whereas the overall algorithm remains the... | | | | Modern Database Management (10th Edition)
This text is designed to be used with an introductory course in database management.
Such a course is usually required as part of an information systems curriculum in
business schools, computer technology programs, and applied computer science
departments. The Association for Information Systems (AIS), the Association for... |

Linear Programming: An Introduction with Applications
This book is aimed at freshman, sophomores, and juniors in college who
are even remotely interested in some of the current applications of
mathematics to the real world. The difficulty with most of the other linear
programming books on the market is that they are high end books, written
primarily in a fairly rigorous fashion... | | Introduction to Biometrics
A number of crucial societal applications like international border crossing, electronic
commerce, and welfare disbursement require reliable person recognition systems.
Traditional person authentication methods based on passwords and identity
documents often fail to meet the stringent security and performance demands of
these... | | Polyurethane and Related Foams: Chemistry and Technology
Polyurethane foams debuted over 60 years ago. At the present time these types
of foams make up the largest segment in the thermosetting foam industry.
This book describes polyurethane (PUR) and urethane linkage-modified
polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams. A characteristic of these foams lies in the
versatility of their physical... |

New Perspectives on Computer Concepts 2012: Introductory
Synchronicity. It’s all about students and instructors tuning in to each other.
And technology makes it possible. In a world of networks, e-mail, webinars, and
social networking sites, technology can certainly strengthen the link between
instructors and students.
New Perspectives on Computer Concepts 2012 is... | | Applying Psychology to Everyday Life: A Beginner's Guide
I began by wanting to write a book entitled something like Where Psychology Has
Gone Wrong. The reason for this desire came from thinking that psychology is
a far more interesting and stimulating subject than it would appear to be from
a glance at some academic texts and journal articles. Also, many students begin
their... | | Digital Signal Processing Using MATLAB for Students and Researchers
I was once asked what signal processing is. The questioner thought it had something
to do with traffi c lights. It became clear to me at that moment that although the
theory and practice of signal processing in an engineering context has made possible
the massive advances of recent times in everything from consumer electronics to... |
