Coping with Uncertainty: Modeling and Policy Issues

Springer, 2006

Uncertainties and risks have always been, and will remain, present; both in everybody’s life and in policy making. This presence is not always recognized because humans tend to perceive the world in a deterministic way, and in most cases succeed in somehow dealing with uncertainties. However, ignoring uncertainties often results in serious...

Genetic Programming Theory and Practice IV (Genetic and Evolutionary Computation)

Springer, 2007

Genetic Programming Theory and Practice IV was developed from the fourth workshop at the University of Michigan’s Center for the Study of Complex Systems to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information related to the rapidly advancing field of Genetic Programming (GP). Contributions from the foremost international...

Giant Planets of Our Solar System: Atmospheres, Composition, and Structure (Springer Praxis Books / Astronomy and Planetary Sciences)

Springer, 2009

"Irwin […] has done an outstanding job of presenting material geared to upper-division undergraduates and beginning graduate students." (J.R. Kraus (University of Denver), Choice Feb. 2004)

This book reviews the current state of knowledge of the atmospheres of the giant gaseous planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The...

Applying Computational Intelligence: How to Create Value

Springer, 2009

The flow of academic ideas in the area of computational intelligence is impacting industrial practice at considerable speed. Practitioners face the challenge of tracking, understanding and applying the latest techniques, which often prove their value even before the underlying theories are fully understood. This book offers realistic guidelines...

Semi-solid Processing of Alloys (Springer Series in Materials Science)

Springer, 2009

This book presents the state of the art concerning the fundamental aspects of semi-solid processing of alloys and composites, together with the industrial applications.

Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations on Parallel Computers

Springer, 2006

Since the dawn of computing, the quest for a better understanding of Nature has been a driving force for technological development. Groundbreaking achievements by great scientists have paved the way from the abacus to the supercomputing power of today. When trying to replicate Nature in the computer’s silicon test tube, there is need...

Applied Interval Analysis

Springer, 2001

This book is about guaranteed numerical methods based on interval analysis for approximating sets, and about the application of these methods to vast classes of engineering problems. Guaranteed means here that inner and outer approximations of the sets of interest are obtained, which can be made as precise as desired, at the cost of...

Natural Language Processing and Information Systems: 16th International Conference on Applications of Natural Language to Information Systems

Springer, 2011

The 16th International Conference on Applications of Natural Language to Information Systems (NLDB 2011) was held during June 28–30, 2011, at the University of Alicante, Spain.

Haptic Human-Computer Interaction

Springer, 2001

Haptic devices allow users to feel their interfaces and interactions. This has the potential to radically change the way we use computers. Haptic interaction is interaction related to the sense of touch. This could be based on force-feedback or tactile devices. We can take advantage of our powerful sense of touch as an alternative...
