Virtual Crowds: Methods, Simulation, and Control (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Graphics and Animation)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

There are many applications of computer animation and simulation where it is necessary to model virtual crowds of autonomous agents. Some of these applications include site planning, education, entertainment, training, and human factors analysis for building evacuation. Other applications include simulations of scenarios where masses of people...

Reconfigurable Computing: Accelerating Computation with Field-Programmable Gate Arrays

Springer, 2005

This volume is unique: the first comprehensive exposition of the exciting new field of Reconfigurable Computing with FPGAs. By mapping algorithms directly into programmable logic, FPGA accelerators offer and deliver 10X-100X performance increases over microprocessors for a large range of application domains. Reconfigurable computing is found in...

Beginning Database Design: From Novice to Professional (Beginning Apress)

Apress, 2012

Everyone keeps data. Big organizations spend millions to look after their payroll, customer, and transaction data. The penalties for getting it wrong are severe: businesses may collapse, shareholders and customers lose money, and for many organizations (airlines, health boards, energy companies), it is not exaggerating to say that...

The Adrenergic Receptors in the 21st Century (The Receptors)

Humana Press, 2005

Our understanding of adrenergic function has advanced considerably in the 15 years since three adrenergic receptor books were published in The Receptors series. In the late 1980s, many of the adrenergic subtypes had not yet been cloned. Most of the studies during that time focused on traditional pharmacological approaches in...

Concurrent Programming: Algorithms, Principles, and Foundations

Springer, 2012

The advent of new architectures and computing platforms means that synchronization and concurrent computing are among the most important topics in computing science. Concurrent programs are made up of cooperating entities -- processors, processes, agents, peers, sensors -- and synchronization is the set of concepts, rules and mechanisms that...

Wireless Ad Hoc Networking: Personal-Area, Local-Area, and the Sensory-Area Networks

Auerbach Publications, 2007

The rapid progress of mobile/wireless communication and embedded microsensing MEMS technologies leads us toward the dream “Ubiquitous/Pervasive Computing.” Wireless local-area networks (WLANs) have been widely deployed in many cities and have become a requisite tool to many people in their daily lives. Wireless personal-area networks...

SDN: Software Defined Networks

O'Reilly, 2013

Explore the emerging definitions, protocols, and standards for SDN—software-defined, software-driven, programmable networks—with this comprehensive guide. Two senior network engineers show you what’s required for building networks that use software for bi-directional communication between applications and the...

Fundamentals of Cryptology: A Professional Reference and Interactive Tutorial

Springer, 1999

The protection of sensitive information against unauthorized access or fraudulent changes has been of prime concern throughout the centuries. Modern communication techniques, using computers connected through networks, make all data even more vulnerable to these threats. In addition, new issues have surfaced that did not exist previously, e.g....

Interactive Co-segmentation of Objects in Image Collections (SpringerBriefs in Computer Science)

Springer, 2011

The authors survey a recent technique in computer vision called Interactive Co-segmentation, which is the task of simultaneously extracting common foreground objects from multiple related images. They survey several of the algorithms, present underlying common ideas, and give an overview of applications of object co-segmentation.

We...
