I FIRST STARTED PLAYING WITH THE ANDROID SDK before it was offi cially released as a 1.0 release.
Back then, the tools were unpolished, the APIs in the SDK were unstable, and the documentation
was sparse. Fast forward two and a half years, Android is now a formidable mobile operating
system, with a following no less impressive that the...
The rapid growth of the Web in the past two decades has made it the largest
publicly accessible data source in the world. Web mining aims to discover
useful information or knowledge from Web hyperlinks, page contents,
and usage logs. Based on the primary kinds of data used in the
mining process, Web mining tasks can be categorized...
This book is complete: my checklists and FileMaker databases have cross-indexed features, preferences, and the applications that ship with Mac OS X, to make certain that everything shows up somewhere in the book. It has been revised against the second update—Mac OS X 10.0.2. We have tried to include screen shots of almost every feature,...
Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization Advisory Editors Ronald L. Graham Jan Karel Lenstra Robert E. Tarjan Discrete Mathematics and Optimization involves the study of finite structures. It is one of the fastest growing areas in mathematics today. The level and depth of recent advances in the area and the wide...
This book suits both graduate students and researchers with a focus on discovering
knowledge from scientific data. The use of computational power for data analysis
and knowledge discovery in scientific disciplines has found its roots with the revolution
of high-performance computing systems. Computational science in physics,...
I have spent the past ten years getting to know After Effects like a
good friend; using it for my own creative work as animator, visual
effects and motion graphic designer for television and film. I have
used many software applications in my time but none of them
compare, in terms of creative flexibility and sheer depth to Adobe...
In preparing this the Seventh edition, the first revision in more than a dozen years, the editors were challenged in many respects. This is evident in the fact that the volume has been almost entirely rewritten, with new articles by over eighty authors. It is also evident in its new format and contents, expanded to include...
concerned with the study of the development and use of advanced information
technologies and systems for national, international, and societal security-related
applications. In the past few years,we have witnessed that ISI experienced tremendous
growth and attracted significant interest involving academic researchers in
related fields...
This volume collects the proceedings of two related international conferences on
foundations and practical applications of mathematical methods of data analysis,
of Formal Concept Analysis and of methods for information extraction from
natural language texts. The first conference, named Knowledge - Ontology -
Theory 2007 (KONT 2007),...
This volume contains a collection of studies in the areas of complexity theory and
foundations of cryptography. These studies were conducted at different times
during the last couple of decades. Although many of these studies have been
referred to by other works, none of them was formally published before.
At first glance, you might assume that HTML5 is the fifth version of the
HTML web-page-writing language. But the real story is a whole lot messier.
HTML5 is a rebel. It was dreamt up by a loose group of freethinkers who
weren’t in charge of the official HTML standard. It allows page-writing practices
that...
Numerical analysis is the branch of mathematics that is used to find approximations to difficult
problems such as finding the roots of non-linear equations, integration involving complex
expressions and solving differential equations for which analytical solutions do not exist. It is
applied to a wide variety of disciplines such as...
