A FAREWELL TO ENTROPY: Statistical Thermodynamics Based on InformationThe principal message of this book is that thermodynamics and statistical mechanics will benefit from replacing the unfortunate, misleading and mysterious term entropy with a more familiar, meaningful and appropriate term such as information, missing information or uncertainty. This replacement would facilitate the interpretation of the driving... | | Geometric Methods for Quantum Field TheoryBoth mathematics and mathematical physics have many active areas of research where the interplay between geometry and quantum field theory has proved extremely fruitful. Duality, gauge field theory, geometric quantization, Seiberg-Witten theory, spectral properties and families of Dirac operators, and the geometry of loop groups offer some striking... | | Real-Life X-Files: Investigating the Paranormal"Whoever said that the truth is both stranger and more entertaining than fiction describes this book exactly." -- Skeptical Inquirer
Interest in the paranormal is at an all-time high. Ghosts, UFOs, psychic power and other unexplained phenomena are endlessly fascinating for us. People often seem to accept of... |

Fine- and Coarse-Grain Reconfigurable ComputingStamatis Vassiliadis was born in the small village of Manolates, on the Mediterranean island of Samos, Greece on July 19th, 1951. He passed away on April 7th, 2007 in Pijnacker, in the Netherlands. In between, he led a very remarkable life. As a child, he walked many kilometers through the mountains to reach his school and would study at night... | | | | Programming Many-Core Chips
Parallel computing has been confined, for much of its over 40 year history, to highly
specialized, technology-wise advanced domains such as scientific computing or
telecommunications. There were only a few experts who had the background and
experience to write efficient, robust and scalable programs for these parallel machines.
