Physics and Chemistry of Micro-Nanotribology

ASTM International, 2008

The roots of micro/nanotribology can be found deep in conventional concepts of tribology. The recognition in the last century of elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) as the principal mode of fluid-film lubrication in many machine components enabled reliable design procedures to be developed for both highly stressed and low elastic modulus machine...

gnuplot Cookbook

Packt Publishing, 2012

gnuplot is a free, open source plotting program that has been in wide use since 1986. It's used as the graphics backend by many other programs, so plenty of people use gnuplot without knowing it. If you've used Octave, Maxima, statist, gretl, or the Emacs graphing calculator, you've already used gnuplot.

Software Engineering Research, Management and Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2019

This edited book presents the scientific outcomes of the 17th International Conference on Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence Research, Management and Applications (SERA 2019) held on May 29–31, 2019 in Honolulu, Hawaii. The aim of the conference was to bring together researchers and scientists, businessmen and...

Automatic Algorithm Recognition and Replacement: A New Approach to Program Optimization

MIT Press, 2000

Optimizing compilers have a fundamental problem. No matter how powerful their optimizations
are, they are no substitute for good application algorithms. Consider the case of
sorting. For sufficiently large data sets, a merge sort algorithm compiled with a less powerful
optimizer will always out-perform a selection sort algorithm...

Turbulence And Coherent Structures in Fluids, Plasmas And Nonlinear Medium (World Scientific Lecture Notes in Complex Systems)

World Scientific Publishing, 2006

The problem of turbulence and coherent structures is of key importance in many fields of science and engineering. It is an area which is vigorously researched across a diverse range of disciplines such as theoretical physics, oceanography, atmospheric science, magnetically confined plasma, nonlinear optics, etc. Modern studies...

Genetic Fuzzy Systems

Understanding Search Engines: Mathematical Modeling and Text Retrieval (Software, Environments, Tools), Second Edition

SIAM, 2005

“There is no other information retrieval/search book where the heart is the mathematical foundations. This book is greatly needed to further establish information retrieval as a serious academic, as well as practical and industrial, area." ---Jaime Carbonell, Carnegie Mellon University. “Berry and Browne describe most of what...

Quantum Cosmology and Baby Universes

World Scientific Publishing, 1991

Quantum gravity is notoriously a subject where problems vastly outnumber results. This is no surprise at short distances, on the order of the Planck length, where most of us expect quantum fluctuations in the metric to cause space-time itself to lose its meaning and gravity to be subsumed (along with the other so-called fundamental interactions)...
