"...an important summary of the state of the art in pattern matching and an indicator of the importance biological problems have assumed among many researchers. It will hopefully encourage them to question the importance of the problems they endeavor to solve." SIGACT News
Robert Sedgewick has thoroughly rewritten and substantially expanded his popular work to provide current and comprehensive coverage of important algorithms and data structures. Many new algorithms are presented, and the explanations of each...
Teaches those already conversant in formulating Algorithms in a functional style, how to program in C and become more proficient in C programming, avoiding common errors and pitfalls. Paper.
The Computer Science Departments of many universities teach a functional language as the first programming language. Using a functional...
This book shares the hard-won wisdom of a highly-successful C++/C programmer - along with a large collection of ANSI-compliant programs that illustrate the true power of C++.This book includes a wide variety of ideas, tips and techniques for programmers of all skill levels. It presents little-known facts about pointers and...
If wo try to identify those contributions of computer science which will be
long lasting, surely one of these will be the refinement of the concept called
algorithm. Ever since man invented the idea of a machine which could per
form basic mathematical operations, the study of what can be computed and
how it can be done well was...
Complex environmental problems are often reduced to an inappropriate level of simplicity. While this book does not seek to present a comprehensive scientific and technical coverage of all aspects of the subject matter, it makes the issues, ideas, and language of environmental engineering accessible and understandable to the nontechnical...
This work is an introduction to mathematical analysis at an elementary level. Emphasis is given to the construction of national and then real numbers, using the method of equivalence classes and of Cauchy sequences. The text includes the presentation of: sequences of real numbers, infinite numerical series, continuous functions, deriviatives...
Java Beans is the most important new development in Java this year. Beans is the next generation of Java technology that not only adds features the language lacked, but also lets Java programs interoperate with a number of development environments. The initial release includes a bridge for Microsoft's ActiveX/COM; future releases will include...
This book summarises recent results in the rapidly developing discipline of the computational aspects of biochemical reactivity. It presents a comprehensive and critical treatise on the subject, with numerous references covering practically all relevant and recent work. The chapters, written by eminent experts in the field, deal with quantum...
It may sound surprising that in computing, a field which develops so fast that the future often becomes the past without having been the present, there is nothing more stable and worthwhile learning than its foundations.
It may sound less surprising that in a field with such a revolutionary methodological impact on all sciences and...
The International Ash Working Group (IAWG) was established in 1989 to conduct an
in-depth review of the existing scientific data and develop a state-of-knowledge treatise
on MSW incinerator residue characterisation, disposal, treatment and utilisation. The
topics of operator and worker health and safety, and health risk assessment...
A world in which every piece of software has the ability to interact with every other piece of software ain't gonna happen anytime soon. But you can always dream. I personally hope to someday put a software chip in a small house pet-a cat, perhaps-and control it through the use of Visual Basic properties and methods.
