II Challenges in Data Mapping Part II deals with one of the most challenging tasks in Interactive Visualization, mapping and teasing out information from large complex datasets and generating visual representations.
Balanced Website Design (BWD) is a new methodology that fuses traditional strengths of structured, stepped, and iterative approaches to design and implementation, with keeping a sharp focus (throughout a project) on defining and achieving the desired purpose, usability and aesthetic characteristics - which are absolutely essential requirements of any website.
After over a century of research, we still do not understand the principle by which a stimulus, such as an odour or a sound, is represented by distributed neural ensembles within the brain; by which an individual is developed by the control of gene networks.
This book contains the proceedings of the Second European Conference on Computer Network Defence to take place in December 2006 at the School of Computing, University of Glamorgan, in the UK, and the Workshop preceding it.
In the second edition of this very successful book, Tony Sammes and Brian Jenkinson show how information held in computer systems can be recovered and how it may be deliberately hidden or subverted for criminal purposes.
Since the general public began to use the Internet in the mid 1990s, there has been a vast amount of investment by governments and commerce in digital communications technologies.
"e;Modelling and Analysis of Hybrid Supervisory Systems"e; introduces a modelling formalism that merges Petri nets, differential equation systems and object-oriented methods; a formalism that is adequate for modelling complex and large-scale systems.
"e;Communications and Networking"e; provides a clear and easy to follow treatment of the subject, written specifically for undergraduates who have no previous experience in the field.
Presenting the latest developments and research results on fault diagnosis approaches using computational intelligence methodologies, this book opens with a review of the state-of-the-art before focusing on various theoretical aspects of computational intelligence methodologies applied to real-world fault diagnosis problems.
This book brings together for the first time two important features of a computer system to be embedded in an organisational context: responsibility, meaning whether the computer system properly supports the organisational responsibilities that people are allocated; and dependability, which means whether it does so in a way that people can justifiably trust it to perform its operation correctly.
The intricate relationship between information technologies, community, and social memory is critical to a fuller understanding of the evolution of our societies.
When you first hear the term information assurance you tend to conjure up an image of a balanced set of reasonable measures that have been taken to protect the information after an assessment has been made of risks that are posed to it.
Advances in science and medicine are closely linked; they are characterised by episodic imaginative leaps, often with dramatic effects on mankind and beyond.
"e;The Maintenance Management Framework"e; describes and reviews the concept, process and framework of modern maintenance management of complex systems; concentrating specifically on modern modelling tools (deterministic and empirical) for maintenance planning and scheduling.
Network Calculus is a mathematical theory concerned with deriving performance bound networks and this book aims to show that it can provide useful methods for designing and engineering networks.
A topic of significant interest to the CSCW, IT and IS communities is the issue of how software and other technical systems come to be adopted and used.
This book contains the First European Conference on Computer Network Defence to take place in December 2005 at the School of Computing, University of Glamorgan, in the UK.
"e;Machine Learning and Data Mining for Computer Security"e; provides an overview of the current state of research in machine learning and data mining as it applies to problems in computer security.
A common sense of time among the elements of a distributed measurement and control system allows the use of new techniques in solving problems with complex synchronization requirements or arising from the interaction of many sensors and actuators.
Remote web-based experimentation, enabling students and researchers to access the laboratory anytime via the Internet, is becoming an increasingly attractive way to complement or even replace traditional laboratory sessions.
Recent developments in constrained control and estimation have created a need for this comprehensive introduction to the underlying fundamental principles.
Taking a three-pronged approach - test engineering from traditional-test, design and manufacturing view-points - Integrated Circuit Test Engineering encapsulates the subject as it stands today.
Thisiswherewetrytoconvinceyoutobuythisbook,tellyouwhatittriestodo, define a few terms and generally set the scene - all of which makes this more like an introduction than a first chapter, but no-one reads introductions so we called it a chapter.
A second edition of this book has given me the opportunity to respond to suggestions from both students and correspondents from around the world, fromdisparateregionsrangingfromScotlandtoHawaii.
This book brings together the perspectives of key researchers to explore lessons on social shaping, examining what can be learned from the adoption of mobile devices that can be applied to other, newer, digital technologies.
Advances in the miniaturization of microelectromechanical systems have led to battery-powered sensor nodes that have sensing, communication and p- cessingcapabilities.
The 10-volume set LNAI 15201-15210 constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Intelligent Robotics and Applications, ICIRA 2024, which took place in Xi'an, China, during July 31-August 2, 2024.
