The world of enterprise routing with Juniper Networks devices is getting very
exciting—new technologies, products, and network developments are making the enterprise
network environment one of the most dynamic places to be. However, we, the
authors, hope to focus that energy by providing you with a detailed and practical...
Although this book focuses on the problems and potentials for electronic
representations of the fundamental materials of document-based knowledge
in literature, similar conditions obtain for representations of works
in music, philosophy, history, the law, and religion. These fields find in
paper documents the primary materials of...
When the first edition of this book was published, the idea of combining a text on digital
design with one on VHDL seemed novel. At about the same time, several other books
with similar themes were published. This book has now been adopted by several universities
as a core text. Moreover, the first edition has now been translated into...
The goal of this book is to provide an overview of the current state of knowledge of educational
data mining (EDM). The primary goal of EDM is to use large-scale educational data
sets to better understand learning and to provide information about the learning process.
Although researchers have been studying human learning for over a...
If you know how to program, you have the skills to turn data into knowledge using the tools of probability and statistics. This concise introduction shows you how to perform statistical analysis computationally, rather than mathematically, with programs written in Python.
When I decided to do a sabbatical with Symantec Research Labs Europe in the
beautiful French Riviera, I was asked to work on a project about Voice over IP
(VoIP) security. The goal of the VAMPIRE Project1 was to understand the threats
and vulnerabilities of VoIP systems, and to inform the direction of further research
efforts....
Connections between the theory of hyperbolic manifolds and the theory of
automata are deeply interwoven in the history of mathematics of this century.
The use of symbol sequences to study dynamical systems originates in the
work of Kocbe [Koc27, Koe29] and Morse [Mor87j, who both used symbol
saliences to code geodesies on a...
Welcome to the Graphic Designer’s Digital Toolkit! Here you will learn the essential
skills and design techniques to get you comfortable using the newest versions of
the premier graphics programs in the industry today: Photoshop, Illustrator, and
InDesign. This book is set up as a challenging hands-on, project-based classroom...
The use of modular and parallel programming languages, and the development of distributed architectures is having a profound influence on computer programming and systems design; hardware and performance can now conspire to produce much higher operating speeds than could previously be achieved through sequential processing. Executing...
The roots of the project which culminates with the writing of
this book can be traced to the work on logic synthesis started in 1979 at
the IBM Watson Research Center and at University of California,
Berkeley. During the preliminary phases of these projects, the impor
tance of logic minimization for the synthesis of area and...
For half a century, computer scientists have been working on systems for discovering
lawful patterns in letters, numbers, words and images. The research
has expanded into the computational study of the process of scientific discovery,
producing such well-known AI programs as BACON and DENDRAL. However,
autonomous discovery systems...
Desktop computing proficiency is increasingly important in today’s business world. As a result, when screening, hiring, and training employees, employers can feel reassured by relying on the objectivity and consistency of technology certification to ensure the competence of their workforce. As an employee or job seeker, you can use...
