 Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing (Springer Reference)
Parallelism, the capability of a computer to execute operations concurrently, has been a constant throughout the
history of computing. It impacts hardware, software, theory, and applications. The fastest machines of the past few
decades, the supercomputers, owe their performance advantage to parallelism. Today, physical limitations... | | | | Mathematical Programming: Theory and Methods
This book is a result of my teaching mathematical programming to graduate
students of the University of Delhi for over thirty years. In preparing this book,
a special care has been made to see that it is self-contained and that it is suitable

Quantitative MRI of the Brain: Measuring Changes Caused by Disease
This book was conceived one balmy March evening on the banks of the river Brisbane, in Queensland, Australia, where I had just arrived for a sabbatical, and it became clear that the traditions of measurement science and MRI should meet. The notion of a guide, a cook-book, for quantitative MRI (qMR) techniques took seed, and attained its own... | | | | Early Days of X-ray Crystallography (International Union of Crystallography)
The year 2012 marked the centenary of one of the most significant discoveries of the early twentieth century, the discovery of X-ray diffraction (March 1912, by Laue, Friedrich and Knipping) and of Bragg's law (November 1912). The discovery of X-ray diffraction confirmed the wave nature of X-rays and the space-lattice hypothesis. It had... |
