This book gathers together much of the author's work - both old and new - to explore a number of the key increases in complexity seen in the natural world, seeking to explain each of them purely in terms of the features of fitness landscapes.
This book gathers original research papers presented at the 4th International Conference on Computational Mathematics and Engineering Sciences, held at Akdeniz University, Antalya, Turkey, on 20-22 April 2019.
This book introduces the reader to the concept of functional synchronization and how it operates on very different levels in psychological and social systems - from the emergence of thought to the formation of social relations and the structure of societies.
Software programs are formal entities with precise meanings independent of their programmers, so the transition from ideas to programs necessarily involves a formalisation at some point.
This comprehensive book is primarily intended for researchers, engineers, mathematicians and computer security specialists who are interested in multimedia security, steganography, encryption, and related research fields.
