Systems Thinking: Coping with 21st Century Problems (Industrial Innovation)

CRC Press, 2008

It is a great pleasure to introduce this inaugural edition of Systems Thinking: Coping with 21st Century Problems by John Boardman and Brian Sauser. In response to the increasing relevance of “systems thinking” to global challenges from terrorism to energy to clean water to healthcare, these authors provide a unique perspective on the...

Building an Effective Information Security Policy Architecture

CRC Press, 2008

Many times, security professionals need a reference for reviewing, developing, and implementing a security policy architecture. This text will walk the reader through the process for an effective policy architecture for a small, medium, or large enterprise. Whether the reader is a novice or an experienced security professional, this text will give...

The 3-D Global Spatial Data Model: Foundation of the Spatial Data Infrastructure

CRC Press, 2008

Traditional methods for handling spatial data are encumbered by the assumption of separate origins for horizontal and vertical measurements. Modern measurement systems operate in a 3-D spatial environment. The 3-D Global Spatial Data Model: Foundation of the Spatial Data Infrastructure offers a new model for handling digital...

Numerical Linear Approximation in C (CRC Numerical Analysis & Scientific Computing)

CRC Press, 2008

Illustrating the relevance of linear approximation in a variety of fields, Numerical Linear Approximation in C presents a unique collection of linear approximation algorithms that can be used to analyze, model, and compress discrete data. Developed by the lead author, the algorithms have been successfully applied to several...

Enterprise Architecture and New Generation Information Systems

CRC Press, 2001

Written for trained professionals in business, industry, government, and education, as well as for graduate students and researchers, this book approaches the subject of enterprise architecture and the best applications of current technology from many viewpoints. Producers, consumers, designers, and end users are considered, as is practical...

Parallel Iterative Algorithms: From Sequential to Grid Computing

CRC Press, 2007

Computer science is quite a young research area. However, it has already been subject to several major advance steps which, in general, have been closely linked to the technological progresses of the machine components. It can easily be assumed that the current evolution takes place at the level of the communication networks whose quality, either...

Petascale Computing: Algorithms and Applications (Chapman & Hall/Crc Computational Science Series)

CRC Press, 2007

Although the highly anticipated petascale computers of the near future will perform at an order of magnitude faster than today’s quickest supercomputer, the scaling up of algorithms and applications for this class of computers remains a tough challenge. From scalable algorithm design for massive concurrency toperformance analyses and...

Handbook of Dynamic System Modeling (Cpaman & Hall/Crc Computer and Information Science)

CRC Press, 2007

The topic of dynamic models tends to be splintered across various disciplines, making it difficult to uniformly study the subject. Moreover, the models have a variety of representations, from traditional mathematical notations to diagrammatic and immersive depictions. Collecting all of these expressions of dynamic models, the Handbook of Dynamic...

Handbook of Parallel Computing: Models, Algorithms and Applications (Chapman & Hall/Crc Computer & Information Science Series)

CRC Press, 2007

We live in an era in which parallel computing has become mainstream and very affordable. This is mainly because hardware costs have come down rapidly. With the advent of the Internet, we also experience the phenomenon of data explosion in every application of interest. Processing voluminous datasets is highly computation intensive. Parallel...

Method of Discrete Vortices
