Compression for Multimedia

Cambridge University Press, 2010

Providing a thorough theoretical understanding of lossy compression techniques for image, video, speech, and audio compression, this book also covers the key features of each system, as well as practical applications, implementation issues, and design trade-offs. It presents comparisons of multimedia standards in terms of achieving known...

Handbook of Applied Algorithms: Solving Scientific, Engineering, and Practical Problems

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

Although vast activity exists, especially recent, the editors did not find any book that treats applied algorithms in a comprehensive manner. The editors discovered a number of graduate courses in computer science programs with titles such as “Design and Analysis of Algorithms, “Combinatorial Algorithms” “Evolutionary...

Application Theory of Petri Nets: 32nd International Conference, PETRI NETS 2011, Newcastle, UK, June 20-24, 2011

Springer, 2011

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 32nd International Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency (PETRI NETS 2011). The Petri Net conferences serve as annual meeting places to discuss the progress in the field of Petri nets and related models of concurrency. They provide a forum for...

Problems on Partial Differential Equations (Problem Books in Mathematics)

Springer, 2019

This book covers a diverse range of topics in Mathematical Physics, linear and nonlinear PDEs. Though the text reflects the classical theory, the main emphasis is on introducing readers to the latest developments based on the notions of weak solutions and Sobolev spaces.

In numerous problems, the student is asked to...

Web Search: Public Searching of the Web (Information Science and Knowledge Management)

Springer, 2004

Web Search: Public Searching of the Web, co-authored by Drs. Amanda Spink and Bernard J. Jansen, is one of the first manuscripts that address the human - system interaction of Web searching in a thorough and complete manner. The authors provide an examination of Web searching from multiple levels of analysis, from theoretical...

Kinematic Self-Replicating Machines

Landes Bioscience, 2004

The principal goal of molecular nanotechnology (MNT) is to develop a manufacturing technology able to inexpensively manufacture most arrangements of atoms that are consistent with physical law. In terms of its precision, flexibility, and low cost, this will be the ultimate manufacturing technology in human history. Two central mechanisms have been...

Chaos and Coarse Graining in Statistical Mechanics

Cambridge University Press, 2008

While statistical mechanics describe the equilibrium state of systems with many degrees of freedom, and dynamical systems explain the irregular evolution of systems with few degrees of freedom, new tools are needed to study the evolution of systems with many degrees of freedom. This book presents the basic aspects of chaotic systems, with emphasis...

Universal Mandelbrot Set: Beginning of the Story

World Scientific Publishing, 2006

This book is devoted to the structure of Mandelbrot set - a remarkable and important personage of the modern theoretical physics, related to chaos and fractals and simultaneously to analytical functions, Riemann surfaces and phase transitions. This makes Mandelbrot set one of the bridges connecting the worlds of chaos and order (integrability). At...

3D Graphics for Game Programming

CRC Press, 2011

Many of computer graphics classes in colleges are focused on real-time rendering and animation. However, it is not easy to nd an appropriate textbook, which presents the state of the art in interactive graphics, is balanced between theory and practicality, and is of a proper length to be covered in a semester. This book is...

Logic and Information Flow (Foundations of Computing)

MIT Press, 1994

The thirteen chapters written expressly for this book by logicians, theoretical computer scientists, philosophers, and semanticists address, from the perspective of mathematical logic, the problems of understanding and studying the flow of information through any information-processing system.The logic of information flow has applications in...

Trust, Institutions and Managing Entrepreneurial Relationships in Africa: An SME Perspective (Palgrave Studies of Entrepreneurship in Africa)

Palgrave Macmillan, 2018

This book highlights the importance of understanding how trust and indigenous African cultural institutions enhance the development of entrepreneurial networks and relationships in Africa. Drawing on institutional theories, the author re-examines the way that entrepreneurial behaviour can be shaped, with a focus on trust, networks...

A Programmer's Companion to Algorithm Analysis

CRC Press, 2006

Focusing on practical issues, A Programmer's Companion to Algorithm Analysis bridges the gap between algorithms and software programs. This book explains the fundamental differences between the computational model assumed for algorithms and the real architectures in which programs execute. It highlights the pitfalls that can occur when implementing...
