Essentials of Programming Languages, 3rd EditionThis book brings you face-to-face with the most fundamental idea in computer programming:
The interpreter for a computer language is just another program. It sounds obvious, doesn’t it? But the implications are profound. If you are a computational theorist, the interpreter idea recalls Gödel’s discovery of the... | | Principles of Model CheckingOur growing dependence on increasingly complex computer and software systems necessitates the development of formalisms, techniques, and tools for assessing functional properties of these systems. One such technique that has emerged in the last twenty years is model checking, which systematically (and automatically) checks whether a model of a... | | A Semantic Web Primer, 2nd Edition (Cooperative Information Systems)The World Wide Web (WWW) has changed the way people communicate with each other, how information is disseminated and retrieved, and how business is conducted. The term Semantic Web comprises techniques that promise to dramatically improve the currentWWWand its use. This book is about this emerging technology.
The success of each book... |

Digital Citizenship: The Internet, Society, and ParticipationJust as education has promoted democracy and economic growth, the Internet has the potential to benefit society as a whole. Digital citizenship, or the ability to participate in society online, promotes social inclusion. But statistics show that significant segments of the population are still excluded from digital citizenship.
The... | | Evolutionary ComputationChoice Outstanding Academic Title, 2006
Evolutionary computation, the use of evolutionary systems as computational processes for solving complex problems, is a tool used by computer scientists and engineers who want to harness the power of evolution to build useful new artifacts, by biologists interested in... | | Distributed WorkTechnological advances and changes in the global economy are motivating and enabling an increasing geographic distribution of work. Today, the geographic distance between an average pair of workers is increasing in industries ranging from banking, to wine production, to clothing design. According to Bureau of Labor surveys of workers, more people... |

Introduction to Algorithms, Second EditionThe book moves forward with more advanced algorithms that implement strategies for solving more complicated problems (including dynamic programming techniques, greedy algorithms, and amortized analysis). Algorithms for graphing problems (used in such real-world business problems as optimizing flight schedules or flow through pipelines) come next.... | | Introduction to Machine Learning (Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning)The goal of machine learning is to program computers to use example data or past experience to solve a given problem. Many successful applications of machine learning exist already, including systems that analyze past sales data to predict customer behavior, recognize faces or spoken speech, optimize robot behavior so that a task can be completed... | | Turing (A Novel about Computation)Our hero is Turing, an interactive tutoring program and namesake (or virtual emanation?) of Alan Turing, World War II code breaker and father of computer science. In this unusual novel, Turing's idiosyncratic version of intellectual history from a computational point of view unfolds in tandem with the story of a love affair involving Ethel, a... |

Advances in Object-Oriented Data Modeling (Cooperative Information Systems)This book focuses on recent developments in representational and processing aspects of complex data-intensive applications.
Focuses on recent developments in representational and processing aspects of object-oriented data modeling, covering hot topics such as reverse engineering and work-flow modeling. Each chapter contains a... | | Social Thinking--Software PracticeSoftware practice is everywhere: software development, design, and use as well as related management are shaping today’s technology and changing the way we engage in social relations at work and at home, in small groups and in the larger society. Scientific reflection on software practice aims at understanding and improvement; at the same... | | Circuit Design with VHDLThis textbook teaches VHDL using system examples combined with programmable logic and supported by laboratory exercises. While other textbooks concentrate only on language features, Circuit Design with VHDL offers a fully integrated presentation of VHDL and design concepts by including a large number of complete design examples,... |
