Insights into Game Theory: An Alternative Mathematical Experience

Cambridge University Press, 2008

Few branches of mathematics have been more influential in the social sciences than game theory. In recent years, it has become an essential tool for all social scientists studying the strategic behaviour of competing individuals, firms and countries. However, the mathematical complexity of game theory is often very intimidating for students...

Introduction to Mathematical Logic

Princeton Press, 1996

Logic is sometimes called the foundation of mathematics: the logician studies the kinds of reasoning used in the individual steps of a proof. Alonzo Church was a pioneer in the field of mathematical logic, whose contributions to number theory and the theories of algorithms and computability laid the theoretical foundations of computer...

The Remote Sensing Data Book

Cambridge University Press, 1999

Remote sensing is used in some way by all earth and atmospheric scientists. This book provides a unique resource to all aspects of remote sensing for both the expert and nonexpert. Organized as a dictionary, it contains over 700 alphabetically-arranged and cross-referenced entries on how remote sensing works, what kinds of data are available,...

An Introduction to PHP for Scientists and Engineers: Beyond JavaScript

Springer, 2008

This book provides an introduction to PHP and server-side programming. It presents readers with a science or engineering background with the information to write their own online applications requiring reading, creating and manipulating data files stored as text on a server, overcoming the limitations of a client-side language.

Advanced Cmos Process Technology (V L S I Electronics) (v. 19)

Academic Press, 1989

The microelectronics revolution persists. Technical innovations abound, and the performance-to-cost ratios for semiconductor devices, integrated circuits, and systems continue to grow. Although it might be entertaining, a historical account of the past three decades of microelectronics would provide little direct benefit to the...

Mathematics of Fuzzy Sets and Fuzzy Logic (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2012

This book presents a mathematically-based introduction into the fascinating topic of Fuzzy Sets and Fuzzy Logic and might be used as textbook at both undergraduate and graduate levels and also as reference guide for mathematician, scientists or engineers who would like to get an insight into Fuzzy Logic.

Fuzzy Sets have been...

Springer Handbook of Geographic Information

Springer, 2012

Computer science provides a powerful tool that was virtually unknown three generations ago. Some of the classical fields of knowledge are geodesy (surveying), cartography, and geography. Electronics have revolutionized geodetic methods. Cartography has faced the dominance of the computer that results in simplified cartographic products. All...

Robust Algebraic Multilevel Methods and Algorithms (Radon Series on Computational and Applied Mathematics)

Walter de Gruyter, 2009

The iterative methods play an important role in solving linear equations that arise in real-world applications. Numerous properties of the problem may affect the efficiency of the solution. This book deals with algorithms for the solution of linear systems of algebraic equations with large-scale sparse matrices, with a focus on...

Continuous-Time Markov Chains and Applications: A Two-Time-Scale Approach (Stochastic Modelling and Applied Probability)

Springer, 2012

This book gives a systematic treatment of singularly perturbed systems that naturally arise in control and optimization, queueing networks, manufacturing systems, and financial engineering. It presents results on asymptotic expansions of solutions of Komogorov forward and backward equations, properties of functional occupation measures,...
