 Biometric System and Data Analysis: Design, Evaluation, and Data MiningBiometric systems are being used in more places and on a larger scale than ever before. As these systems mature, it is vital to ensure the practitioners responsible for development and deployment, have a strong understanding of the fundamentals of tuning biometric systems. The focus of biometric research over the past four decades has... |  |  |  |  Grid Resource Management: Towards Virtual and Services Compliant Grid ComputingGrid technology offers the potential for providing secure access to remote services, thereby promoting scientific collaborations in an unprecedented scale.

 Liquid Crystalline Polymers"Their book is a most useful resource for approaching a large literature that even a specialist needs help to assimilate. -- Professor Mark Warner, Cavendish Laboratory Cambridge, UK
This textbook consists of six chapters. The first chapter highlights the concept of liquid crystals, including chemical structure, phase... |  |  The Martians of Science: Five Physicists Who Changed the Twentieth CenturyIf science has the equivalent of a Bloomsbury group, it is the five men born at the turn of the twentieth century in Budapest: Theodore von Karman, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, John von Neumann, and Edward Teller. From Hungary to Germany to the United States, they remained friends and continued to work together and influence each other throughout... |  |  The Art of Designing Embedded Systems, Second Edition
For tens of thousands of years the human race used their muscles and the labor of animals to build a world that differed little from that known by all their ancestors. But in 1776 James Watt installed the fi rst of his improved steam engines in a commercial enterprise, kicking off the industrial revolution.

 3D Shape: Its Unique Place in Visual PerceptionThe uniqueness of shape as a perceptual property lies in the fact that it is both complex and structured. Shapes are perceived veridically—perceived as they really are in the physical world, regardless of the orientation from which they are viewed. The constancy of the shape percept is the sine qua non of shape perception; you are... |  |  |  |  Exploring C++: The Programmer's Introduction to C++Exploring C++ uses a series of self–directed lessons to divide C++ into bite–sized chunks that you can digest as rapidly as you can swallow them. The book assumes only a basic understanding of fundamental programming concepts (variables, functions, expressions, statements) and requires no prior knowledge of C or any other... |
