Principles of Document Processing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Principles of Document Processing, PODP'96, held in Palo Alto, California, USA, in September 1996. The book contains 13 revised full papers presented as chapters of a coherent, monograph-like book. The papers focus equally on the theory and the practice of document processing. Among the topics covered are theory of media, cross media publishing and multi-modal documents, SGML content models, grammar-compatible stylesheets, multimedia documents, temporal constraints in multimedia, hypertext representation, contextual knowledge, structured documents for IR, Web-publishing, virtual documents, etc.
EP '98
This book presents the refereed proceedings of the EP'98 and RIDT'98 conferences, held jointly during the Second International Week on Electronic Publishing and Typography in St. Malo, France, in March/April 1998. The 43 revised full papers presented were carefully selected for inclusion in the book. Among the topics covered are artistic imaging, tools and methods in typography, non-latin type, typographic creation, imaging, character recognition, handwriting models, legibility and design issues, fonts and design, time and multimedia, electronic and paper documents, document engineering, documents and linguistics, document reuse, hypertext and the Web, and hypertext creation and management.
Biographical Memoirs
Biographic Memoirs: Volume 79 contains the biographies of deceased members of the National Academy of Sciences and bibliographies of their published works. Each biographical essay was written by a member of the Academy familiar with the professional career of the deceased. For historical and bibliographical purposes, these volumes are worth returning to time and again.
Psychoneuroendocrine Dysfunction
There is no area in medicine that has affected biological psychiatry more pro 15 years in en foundly than the developments that have occurred in the last docrinology and more specifically in neuroendocrinology. In the 1960s, the regulation of endocrine function was considered to rest primarily in the feed back system between the pituitary and the secretions of various target organs. In R. H. Williams' Fourth Edition of the Textbook of Endocrinology published in 1968, the chapter on neuroendocrinology did refer to the median eminence gland with a relatively brief mention of various releasing factors that were the subject of ongoing studies. Only six years later, in the Fifth Edition published...
Principles of Digital Document Processing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Principles of Digital Document Processing, PODDP'98, held in Saint Malo, France, in March 1998. The 12 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed during two rounds of selection for inclusion in the book. The book is divided into sections on document models and structures, characterization of documents and corpora, and accessing collections of documents.
Foundations of Data Organization and Algorithms
This volume presents the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Data Organization and Algorithms, FODO '93, held in Evanston, Illinois. FODO '93 reflects the maturing of the database field which hasbeen driven by the enormous growth in the range of applications for databasesystems. The "non-standard" applications of the not-so-distant past, such ashypertext, multimedia, and scientific and engineering databases, now provide some of the central motivation for the advances in hardware technology and data organizations and algorithms. The volume contains 3 invited talks, 22 contributed papers, and 2 panel papers. The contributed papers are grouped into parts on multimedia, access methods, text processing, query processing, industrial applications, physical storage, andnew directions.
Universal Traceability. A Comprehensive, Generic, Technology-Independent, and Semantically Rich Approach
Traceability describes the ability of stakeholders to understand and follow relationships between artifacts that play some role in software development. It is essential for many development tasks, e.g., quality assurance, requirements management, or software maintenance. Aiming to overcome various deficiencies of existing traceability concepts, this book presents a universal approach describing required features of traceability solutions. This includes a technology-independent, generic template for the definition of semantically rich traceability relationship types and technology-independent patterns for the retrieval of traceability information, reflecting generic problems common to traceability applications. The universal approach is implemented on the basis of two concrete technologies which facilitate comprehensive traceability: the TGraph approach and OWL ontologies. The applicability of the approach is shown by three case studies dealing with the reuse of software artifacts, process model refinement, and requirements management, respectively.
Programming Languages and System Architectures
Programming languages and system architectures are at the frontiers of two different worlds. The conference on which this book is based was an adventure in a land where the two worlds - the formal world of algorithms and the physical world of electronic circuits - interact. The participants explored this land under the guidance of internationally renowned researchers such as Butler W. Lampson, Susan Graham, Jan L.A. van de Snepscheut, and C.A.R. Hoare, all of whom gave invited papers. The volume includes these papers together with sixteen session papers. Subjects of special interest include: programing language design and history, programming environments, programming methods, operating systems, compiler construction, and innovative system architectures.
Model-Driven Software Engineering in Practice
This book discusses how model-based approaches can improve the daily practice of software professionals. This is known as Model-Driven Software Engineering (MDSE) or, simply, Model-Driven Engineering (MDE). MDSE practices have proved to increase efficiency and effectiveness in software development, as demonstrated by various quantitative and qualitative studies. MDSE adoption in the software industry is foreseen to grow exponentially in the near future, e.g., due to the convergence of software development and business analysis. The aim of this book is to provide you with an agile and flexible tool to introduce you to the MDSE world, thus allowing you to quickly understand its basic principle...
Big C++
Big C++: Late Objects, 3rd Edition focuses on the essentials of effective learning and is suitable for a two-semester introduction to programming sequence. This text requires no prior programming experience and only a modest amount of high school algebra. It provides an approachable introduction to fundamental programming techniques and design skills, helping students master basic concepts and become competent coders. The second half covers algorithms and data structures at a level suitable for beginning students. Horstmann and Budd combine their professional and academic experience to guide the student from the basics to more advanced topics and contemporary applications such as GUIs and XM...
