Approximation methods are of vital importance in many challenging applications
from computational science and engineering. This book collects papers
from world experts in a broad variety of relevant applications of approximation
theory, including pattern recognition and machine learning, multiscale modelling
of fluid flow, metrology,...
The pioneering findings of Dr. Koki Horikoshi on the discovery, research and applications of alkaliphilic bacteria are described here in their entirety. Discussion ranges from introductory background on taxonomy, cell structure and physiology, to enzymes and their applications. Alkaliphiles are a relatively recent field of research that will...
Patrick is a focused transport logistics company specialised in the loading and unloading of ships and the efficient land based collection, distribution and storage of cargo for import, export and within Australia.
Patrick began as a one-time small stevedore and now leader in port related transport and logistics. We’ve evolved into...
As autonomous robots expand into the service domain, new solutions to the challenge of operating in domestic environments must be developed. Widespread adoption of service robots demands high robustness to environmental change and operational wear, and minimal reliance on application specific knowledge. As such, rich sensing modalities such as...
Foundation of logic historically dates back to the times of Aristotle, who pioneered the concept of truth/falsehood paradigm in reasoning. Mathematical logic of propositions and predicates, which are based on the classical models of Aristotle, underwent a dramatic evolution during the last 50 years for its increasing applications in automated...
The theory of formal languages is widely accepted as the backbone of theoretical computer science. It mainly originated from mathematics (combinatorics, algebra, mathematical logic) and generative linguistics. All human problem solving capabilities can be considered in a certain sense as a manipulation of symbols and structures composed by symbols,...
Being the important means by which people acquire and publish information nowadays, theWeb has been a huge information resource depository all around the world and the huge amount of information on the Web is getting larger and larger every day. It is becoming very crucial for computer programs to deal with information on the Web automatically and...
Agility and Execution – Organizational Success Through Flexible Business Processes
Only a company which is flexible, agile and responsive will be successful. The secret to success is agility, meaning the ability to quickly adapt company processes. Against this backdrop, IT is of particular importance as it is virtually the machine...
This interdisciplinary atlas is the fruit of cooperation among radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, traumatologists, and neurosurgeons. Clinically oriented, it covers all important diseases and injuries of the spine. Numerous illustrations are supplemented by concise descriptions of anatomy and pathophysiology, normal and abnormal MRI...
This book presents major advances in high performance computing as well as major advances due to high performance computing. It contains a collection of papers in which results achieved in the collaboration of scientists from computer science, mathematics, physics, and mechanical engineering are presented. From the science problems to the...
Key to our culture is that we can disseminate information, and then maintain and access it over time. While we are rapidly advancing from vulnerable physical solutions to superior, digital media, preserving and using data over the long term involves complicated research challenges and organization efforts.
The second volume covers a broad range of conjunctival
and corneal diseases, again with particular
emphasis being placed on problem management.
Various new surgical approaches are currently
being evaluated in the clinical setting, an example
of which is posterior lamellar keratoplasty in
Fuchs endothelial...
