This second edition continues to be an essential resource for database practitioners and researchers, providing a thorough... Jun 28 2009 The backup 2-center and backup 2-median problems on trees Wang H., Wu B., Chao K.  Networks 53(1): 39-49, 2009. Type: Article Two common networking problems with the redundant deployment of servers--the backup 2-center and the backup 2-median--are dealt with in this paper. Such problems are commonly known as facility location problems.... Jun 21 2009 Clustering Xu R., Wunsch D.,  Wiley-IEEE Press, 2009. 358 pp. Type: Book, Reviews: (1 of 2) The classification of tangible and intangible entities according to measurements or estimations of their characteristics is an old problem in science. Clustering techniques are used in many fields, including social sciences, natural sciences... Jun 14 2009 Scalable synchronous queues Scherer W., Lea D., Scott M.  Communications of the ACM 52(5): 100-111, 2009. Type: Article Which Java class should you choose to implement a producer-consumer design pattern? According to the authors, choose their synchronous dual queue or synchronous dual stack classes. The stack (last-in, first-out (LIFO)) is not as fair as the queue ... Jun 7 2009 Plans, actions and dialogues using linear logic Dixon L., Smaill A., Tsang T.  Journal of Logic, Language and Information 18(2): 251-289, 2009. Type: Article Since first proposed by Jean-Yves Girard in 1995, linear logic has been tremendously influential in theoretical computer science (CS). Papers on linear logic, however, have a reputation for being rather impenetrable. This paper is pleasingly... May 31 2009 Matrix-based multigrid: theory and applications Shapira Y.,  Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, 2008. 322 pp. Type: Book Shapira delivers a systematic and unified presentation of the multigrid method that is used for the efficient solution of partial differential equations. Such methodology is important to the computational science and engineering research... May 25 2009 Boundary control of PDES: a course on backstepping designs Krstic M., Smyshlyaev A.,  Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, Philadelphia, PA, 2008. 202 pp. Type: Book Despite forming the basis of some of the most interesting control problems, partial differential equations (PDEs) are notoriously difficult to control--especially if we limit ourselves to the more physically realistic case of only actuating... May 17 2009 Hadoop at home: large-scale computing at a small college Brown R.  Computer science education (Proceedings of the 40th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, Chattanooga, TN,  Mar 4-7, 2009) 106-110, 2009. Type: Proceedings One of the interesting challenges of computer science (CS) education is preparing students for the large-scale computing of today’s world. This paper presents a model for what can be achieved at even a small college. Google uses a... May 10 2009 Scholarship in the digital age: information, infrastructure, and the Internet Borgman C.,  The MIT Press, 2007. 336 pp. Type: Book This slender, but ambitious, volume covers the changes over the years in how professional researchers share information. It is a good resource for information infrastructure designers. It would also be an excellent survey text for students who... May 3 2009 The student’s introduction to Mathematica: a handbook for precalculus, calculus, and linear algebra Torrence B., Torrence E.,  Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2009. 484 pp. Type: Book Over the last 20 years, Mathematica has established a reputation as an enormously powerful tool for numerical and symbolic computation, visualization, and the solution of many other mathematical problems. However, the very large number of... Apr 26 2009   Display 510152550100 per page
