The advent of the digital era, the Internet, and the development of fast com- puting devices that can access mass storage servers at high communication bandwidths have brought within our reach the world of ambient intelligent systems.
Hypertext/hypermedia systems and user-model-based adaptive systems in the areas of learning and information retrieval have for a long time been considered as two mutually exclusive approaches to information access.
From the foreword by Thomas Huang: "e;During the past decade, researchers in computer vision have found that probabilistic machine learning methods are extremely powerful.
This book brings together three great motifs of the network society: the seeking and using of information by individuals and groups; the creation and application of knowledge in organizations; and the fundamental transformation of these activities as they are enacted on the Internet and the World Wide Web.
A number of optimization problems of the mechanics of space flight and the motion of walking robots and manipulators, and of quantum physics, eco- momics and biology, have an irregular structure: classical variational proce- dures do not formally make it possible to find optimal controls that, as we explain, have an impulse character.
The development of computational models of design founded on the artificial intelligenceparadigm has provided an impetus for muchofcurrentdesign research.
This book comprises an edited version of the Proceedings of the 2nd Interna- tional Conference on Applications of Supercomputers in Engineering which took place at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA during August 1991.
This book is intended for engineers, computer scientists, managers and all those concerned with computer graphics, computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture.
Software for engineering applications has become, during the last few years, a multi-billion pound industry as applications of computer programs are now an essential part of any engineering project.
Design is an important research topic in engineering and architecture, since design is not only a means of change but also one of the keystones of economic competitiveness and the fundamental precursor to manufacturing.
CAAd Futures is a Bi-annual Conference that aims at promoting the advancement of computer aided architectural design in the service of those concerned with the quality of the built environment.
Advances in electronics, communications, and the fast growth of the Internet have made the use of a wide variety of computing devices an every- day occurrence.
In a society in which the use of information technology is becoming commonplace it is natural that pictures and images produced by elec- tronic means should be increasing in importance as a means of com- munication.
In this book, the author has presented an introduction to the practical application of some of the essential technical topics related to computer-aided engineering (CAE).
This volume contains a collection of papers presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on *Testing and Diagnosis of VLSI and ULSI"e; held at Villa Olmo, Como (Italy) June 22 -July 3,1987.
Concurrent design, or co-design of hardware and software is extremely important for meeting design goals, such as high performance, that are the key to commercial competitiveness.
The theme of HumanCom and EMC is focused on the various aspects of human-centric computing for advances in computer science and its applications, embedded and multimedia computing and provides an opportunity for academic and industry professionals to discuss the latest issues and progress in the area of human-centric computing.
The new multimedia standards (for example, MPEG-21) facilitate the seamless integration of multiple modalities into interoperable multimedia frameworks, transforming the way people work and interact with multimedia data.
IT Convergence and Services is proceedings of the 3rd FTRA International Conference on Information Technology Convergence and Services (ITCS-11) and the FTRA International Conference on Intelligent Robotics, Automations, telecommunication facilities, and applications (IRoA-11).
High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cement Composites (HPFRCC) represent a class of cement composites whose stress-strain response in tension undergoes strain hardening behaviour accompanied by multiple cracking, leading to a high strain prior to failure.
Proceedings of the International Conference on Human-centric Computing and Embedded and Multimedia Computing (HumanCom & EMC 2011) will cover topics of HumanCom and EMC, the current hot topics satisfying the world-wide ever-changing needs.
