	Scientific data mining and knowledge discovery Much of scientific discovery is the result of induction--patterns peeking through data are recognized. Of course, this process requires a trained mind and a conceptual framework that may be either confirmed or challenged. The investigator needs to know what a needle looks like before he burrows into the haystack, and he... more A proxy based dynamic data management using hierarchical database for location based services: ICWET 10 Mobile phones have reached a central position in the world of communications.

Over the years, the semantic Web has gathered momentum due to the initiatives... more General (H.2.0) | Jul 29 10 The essential guide to Processing for Flash developers The objective of this book is to educate Flash developers in another somewhat competitive programming language and environment, called Processing. Its focus is to advance software... more Scripting Languages (I.7.2...) | Jul 29 10 The art of scalability This great book provides the information technology professional with an orderly and succinct presentation of scaling Web architectures. In it, the reader will find a thorough discussion of scalability that is complete and easy to read and follow. The book begins... more General (H.3.0) | Jul 28 10 Introducing Windows Azure If you’re ready to sit down and code a Windows Azure application, this book is for you. If you’re just investigating cloud computing or trying to compare Azure to other cloud architectures, read something else first. Come back to this book after you... more Distributed Systems (C.2.4) | Jul 27 10 Multicore processors and systems For the last 30 years, microprocessors based on a single processor core (uniprocessors) have become faster. However, limitations such as transistor scaling and thermal dissipation have begun to hobble Moore”s law--for example, the number of transistors on... more Multiple Data Stream Arch. (C.1.2) | Jul 27 10 Logical foundations of proof complexity This authoritative volume on computational complexity of logical systems provides a sound background in logic for computer science and mathematics students. It covers a series of complexity classes, from the basic class whose components are computed... more Proof Theory (F.4.1...) | Jul 23 10 Animation and performance capture using digitized models Television technology has transitioned from black and white to color, from color to 16:9, and from 16:9 to high definition. Now that Hollywood and related industries are heavily investing in the space, there is a significant chance that the next move is going... more Animation (I.3.7...) | Jul 21 10 Greening through IT: information technology for environmental sustainability This book is primarily a compendium of the efforts and challenges of building a new environmentally conscious world, and the role that information technology (IT) can... more The Computer Industry (K.1) | Jul 21 10 Handbook of weighted automata The first thing that struck me about this new handbook was its weight. If some of the more distant connections to the topic of weighted automata had been removed, it would have been much handier. This is not to say that the contributions are not... more Automata (F.1.1...) | Jul 20 10 Realistic image synthesis using photon mapping Photon mapping is a widely used biased global illumination algorithm that can efficiently and robustly simulate various lighting effects seen in real life--such as diffuse inter-reflections, caustics... more Raytracing (I.3.7...) | Jul 20 10 Display 510152550100 per column
