Software Verification and Analysis: An Integrated, Hands-On Approach

Springer, 2009

This book addresses the most important techniques in improving the correctness of software, including correctness by construction (top-down refinement), program proving, static analysis and dynamic, execution-based analysis (testing and debugging).

Three major software verification techniques are discussed: Semantic program synthesis and...

Cognitive Networks: Towards Self-Aware Networks

John Wiley & Sons, 2007

Cognitive networks can dynamically adapt their operational parameters in response to user needs or changing environmental conditions. They can learn from these adaptations and exploit knowledge to make future decisions.

Cognitive networks are the future, and they are needed simply because they enable users to focus on things other...

Ecology, Cognition and Landscape

Springer, 2009

It is more and more evident that our living system is completely disturbed by human intrusion. Such intrusion affects the functioning of entire systems in ways we do not yet fully understand. We use paradigms such as the disturbance to cover large and deep gaps in our scientific knowledge.

Human ecology is an uncertain terrain for...

HTML5 and JavaScript Projects (Expert's Voice in Web Development)

Apress, 2011

HTML5 and JavaScript Projects shows you how to build on your basic knowledge of HTML5 and JavaScript to create substantial HTML5 applications.

Computational Linguistics and Talking Robots: Processing Content in Database Semantics

Springer, 2011

The practical task of building a talking robot requires a theory of how natural language communication works. Conversely, the best way to computationally verify a theory of natural language communication is to demonstrate its functioning concretely in the form of a talking robot, the epitome of human–machine communication. To...

Multidisciplinary Information Retrieval: Second Information Retrieval Facility Conference, IRFC 2011

Springer, 2011

IRFC 2011 received 19 high-quality submissions, of which 10 were accepted for presentation at the conference and appear here. Three of these fall into the natural language processing for IR area, one into the distributed computing area, while the remaining six are IR papers.

The IRF Conference provides a multi-disciplinary,...

Color Image Processing: Methods and Applications

CRC Press, 2006

Over the last two decades, we have witnessed an explosive growth in both the diversity of techniques and the range of applications of image processing. However, the area of color image processing is still sporadically covered, despite having become commonplace, with consumers choosing the convenience of color imaging over traditional grayscale...

Visualization for Information Retrieval (The Information Retrieval Series)

Springer, 2007

The amount of digitized information available on the Internet, in digital libraries, and other forms of information systems grows at an exponential rate, while becoming more complex and more dynamic. As a consequence, information organization, information retrieval and the presentation of retrieval results have become more and more difficult....

The Anatomy of Programming Languages

Prentice Hall, 1993

This comprehensive discussion of the components of a programming language emphasises how a language is built. It covers core concepts including specification, objects, expressions, control and types with discussions of fundamentals, implementations strategies and related semantic issues. The book also focuses on current topics such as modules and...

Architecture-Independent Programming for Wireless Sensor Networks (Wiley Series on Parallel and Distributed Computing)

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

New automated, application-independent methodology for designing and deploying sensor networks

Following this book's clear explanations, examples, and illustrations, domain experts can design and deploy nontrivial networked sensing applications without much knowledge of the low-level networking aspects of deployment. This new approach is based...
