Number theory in science and communication : With applications in cryptography, physics, digital information, computing, and self-similarity
"Number Theory in Science and Communication" is a well-known introduction for non-mathematicians to this fascinating and useful branch of applied mathematics . It stresses intuitive understanding rather than abstract theory and highlights important concepts such as continued fractions, the golden ratio, quadratic residues and Chinese remainders, trapdoor functions, pseudoprimes and primitive elements. Their applications to problems in the real world are one of the main themes of the book. This revised fourth edition is augmented by recent advances in primes in progressions, twin primes, prime triplets, prime quadruplets and quintruplets, factoring with elliptic curves, quantum factoring, Golomb rulers and "baroque" integers.
Mathématiques, informatique, physique. Au fil des TIPE = Mathematics, computer science, physics : Throughout the TIPE projects
Presents nine cases in mathematics, physics, or computer science used in the competition. Each case study is accompanied by general remarks, commentary, a suggested outline, questions a jury might ask, and an explanation placing the case study's theme within its scientific context. The authors hope not only to assist CPGE students in their preparation but also to provide valuable support to teachers who have embraced this new pedagogical approach. Laurent Decreusefond and Alain Maruani, the pedagogical coordinators for the mathematics, computer science, and physics component of the TIPE, have made significant contributions to its design and implementation.
Intelligent Decision and Policy Making Support Systems
This book covers a number of representative applications of intelligent decision support systems applications in society and policy support, including general methodologies, case studies, on-going R&D projects, and practical applications.
Intelligent Data Mining : Techniques and Applications
Intelligent Data Mining - Techniques and Applications is an organized edited collection of contributed chapters covering basic knowledge for intelligent systems and data mining, applications in economic and management, industrial engineering and other related industrial applications. The main objective of this book is to gather a number of peer-reviewed high quality contributions in the relevant topic areas.
Fuzzy Logic : A Spectrum of Theoretical & Practical Issues
This book exclusively surveys the active on-going research of the current maturity of fuzzy logic over the last four decades. Many world leaders of fuzzy logic have enthusiastically contributed their best research results into five theoretical, philosophical and fundamental sub areas and nine distinctive applications, including two PhD dissertations from two world class universities dealing with cutting-edge research areas of bioinformatics and geological science. Beyond the scope of survey and collection of the book, one important spin off is the emerging and recognition of a major scientific paradigm shift from the conventional mathematics to the mathematics of uncertainty, which arguably holds the key to solving very difficult and complex problems in biological and social sciences alike. The book, loaded with historical perspective, creative thinking, critical reviewing, and uniquely constructed strategy for future growth of this dynamic research area, is an invaluable resource for active researchers at all levels, university administrators, foundation directors, funding agency program chiefs, research & development planners and technological assessors.
Frontiers in Quantum Systems in Chemistry and Physics
The basic theory of matter on the nanoscale is quantum mechanics and the application of quantum mechanics to the study of the many-body problem in molecules and materials is a rapidly developing field of research. Frontiers in Quantum Systems in Chemistry and Physics defines the leading edge; hence it describes the new theoretical developments available to a wider audience and presents theories which provide, for example, new insights into the structure of increasing complex molecular systems or molecules in a variety of environments. New computational techniques and practices are accessed, exploiting the wide range of equipment available to the researcher from “leadership” class supercomputers to distributed workstations and the internet.
E-Service Intelligence : Methodologies, Technologies and Applications
Business organizations and governments are nowadays developing and providing internet based electronic services (e-services) featuring various intelligent functions. E-Service Intelligence integrates intelligent techniques into e-service systems for realizing intelligent internet information searching, presentation, provision, recommendation, online system design, implementation, and assessment to internet users. This book offers a thorough introduction and systematic overview of the new field and covers the state-of-the-art of the research and development in E-Service Intelligence ranging from e-services and/or intelligent techniques to web information presentation, search, and mining, to personalization, privacy, and trust in e-services, to e-service evaluation, optimization and knowledge discovery, and to intelligent e-service system developments.
Differential Equations Driven by Rough Paths : Ecole d’Eté de Probabilités de Saint-Flour XXXIV-2004
The goal of these notes is to provide a straightforward and self supporting but minimalist account of the key results forming the foundation of the theory of rough paths.
Computational Textile
This edited book collects a number of representative applications of computational techniques in textile and garment industry. These applications cover the following issues: Textile quality assessment by image analysis, Modeling and simulation of textile structures, Computer aided garment design, Computerized textile management and textile Supply Chain, Textile quality subjective and objective evaluation; Computational thermal bioengineering of textiles and clothing; Computational biomechanical engineering of textiles and clothing.
Accountability for International Humanitarian Law Violations : The Case of Rwanda and East Timor
The main objective of this book is to make available to an informed audience a le gal and policy oriented study on accountability for serious human rights and inter national humanitarian law violations. It is an attempt to share the lessons learnt in accountability for atrocity crimes as conducted by the International Criminal Tri bunal for Rwanda (ICTR), and the United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor (UNTAET). The former established subsequent to egregious atrocities that took place in 1994, and the latter following the massive outburst of violence in 1999. The book is based on two cases: Rwanda and East Timor. It is expected that it will serve as reference literature to both the legal community and policy makers on accountability for heinous international crimes.
