The Longing for Less: Living with Minimalism

Bloomsbury Reference, 2020

"More than just a story of an abiding cultural preoccupation, The Longing For Less peels back the commodified husk of minimalism to reveal something surprising and thoroughly alive." -Jenny Odell, author of How to Do Nothing

"Thoughtful and absorbing . . . A superb outing...

Human Computation (Synthesis Lectures on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2011

Human computation is a new and evolving research area that centers around harnessing human intelligence to solve computational problems that are beyond the scope of existing Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. With the growth of the Web, human computation systems can now leverage the abilities of an unprecedented number of people via the...

Fundamentals of Modern Electric Circuit Analysis and Filter Synthesis: A Transfer Function Approach

Springer, 2019

This textbook explains the fundamentals of electric circuits and uses the transfer function as a tool to analyze circuits, systems, and filters. The author avoids the Fourier transform and three phase circuits, since these topics are often not taught in circuits courses. General transfer functions for low pass, high pass, band pass...

Quantum Computer Science (Synthesis Lectures on Quantum Computing)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

In this text we present a technical overview of the emerging field of quantum computation along with new research results by the authors. What distinguishes our presentation from that of others is our focus on the relationship between quantum computation and computer science. Specifically, our emphasis is on the computational model of quantum...

The Sense of the Universe: Philosophical Explication of Theological Commitment in Modern Cosmology

Fortress Press, 2015

The Sense of the Universe deals with existential and phenomenological reflection upon modern cosmology with the aim to reveal hidden theological commitments in cosmology related to the mystery of human existence. The book proposes a new approach to the dialogue between science and theology based in a thorough philosophical analysis of...

Quantum Computing for Computer Architects (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Architecture)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2006

Quantum computationmay seem to be a topic for science fiction, but small quantum computers have existed for several years and larger machines are on the drawing table. These efforts have been fueled by a tantalizing property: while conventional computers employ a binary representation that allows computational power to scale linearly with resources...

Arithmetic Optimization Techniques for Hardware and Software Design

Cambridge University Press, 2010

Obtain better system performance, lower energy consumption, and avoid hand-coding arithmetic functions with this concise guide to automated optimization techniques for hardware and software design. High-level compiler optimizations and high-speed architectures for implementing FIR filters are covered, which can improve performance in...

Introduction to Reticular Chemistry: Metal-Organic Frameworks and Covalent Organic Frameworks

John Wiley & Sons, 2019

A concise introduction to the chemistry and design principles behind important metal-organic frameworks and related porous materials

Reticular chemistry has been applied to synthesize new classes of porous materials that are successfully used for myraid applications in areas such as gas separation, catalysis, energy, and...

Advanced Topics in Fuzzy Graph Theory (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing (375))

Springer, 2019

This book builds on two recently published books by the same authors on fuzzy graph theory. Continuing in their tradition, it provides readers with an extensive set of tools for applying fuzzy mathematics and graph theory to social problems such as human trafficking and illegal immigration. Further, it especially focuses on advanced...

Synthetic Metal Containing Polymers

John Wiley & Sons, 2002

The development of the field of synthetic metal-containing polymers - where metal atoms form an integral part of the main chain or side group structure of a polymer - aims to create new materials which combine the processability of organic polymers with the physical or chemical characteristics associated with the metallic element or complex. This...

Fundamentals of the Fuzzy Logic-Based Generalized Theory of Decisions (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2013

Every day decision making and decision making in complex human-centric systems are characterized by imperfect decision-relevant information. Main drawback of the existing decision theories is namely incapability to deal with imperfect information and modeling vague preferences. Actually, a paradigm of non-numerical probabilities in decision...

Automated Planning: Theory & Practice (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Artificial Intelligence)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2004

"In recent years, comprehensive texts have been written for several of the other major areas of Artificial Intelligence, including machine learning, natural-language processing, and constraint-satisfaction processing, but until now, the field of planning has been devoid of such a resource, despite the considerable number of advances in and the...
