Published Nov 25, 2003 by Addison-Wesley Professional. Part of the Tools and Techniques for Computer Typesetting series. The series editor may be contacted at [email protected]. LaTeX is the text-preparation system of choice for scientists and academics, and is especially useful for typesetting technical materials. This popular book shows you how to begin using LaTeX to create high-quality documents. The book also serves as a handy reference for all LaTeX users. In this completely revised edition, the authors cover the LaTeX2ε standard and offer more details, examples, exercises, tips, and tricks. They go beyond the core installation to describe the key contributed packages...

Engineering Writing by Design: Creating Formal Document of Lasting Value, Second Edition shows how effective writing can be achieved by thinking like an engineer. Based on the authors’ combined experience as engineering educators, the book presents a novel approach to technical writing, positioning formal writing tasks as engineering design problems with requirements, constraints, protocols, standards, and customers (readers) to satisfy. Specially crafted for busy engineers and engineering students, this quick-reading conversational text: Describes how to apply engineering design concepts to the writing process Explains how engineers fall into thinking traps, and gives techniques for avoid...
X system Ib-TEX. I wish to thank her for the beautiful work and the numerous discussions on the contents of this book. I am indebted to Peter Fassler, Neu-Technikum Buchs, Switzerland, for drafting the figures, to my students Kurt Rothermann and Stefan Strahl for computer enhancing and labeling the graphics, to Pascal Felder and Markus Wittwer for a simulation program that generated the figures in the stochastics sections. My thanks go to my new colleague at work, Daniel Neuenschwander, for the inspiring discussions related to the section in stochastics and for reading the manuscript to it. I am also grateful to Dacfey Dzung for reading the whole manuscript. Thanks go especially to Professor...
Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Successive to a preceding study about Service Discovery, this thesis covers the topics Service Description and Service Access. Starting with an analysis and comparison of existing technologies, a new protocol for the service access was developed and an operating environment, capable of accessing services of any type was programmed. Thereby emphasis is placed an high scalability, extensibility, modularity and comprehensive documentation, to provide easy association with existing or future works. The first part deals with the various versions of Service Descriptions, followed by a description of the service access methods and concluding with a comprising comparison. All...
Presents Real & Complex Analysis Together Using a Unified Approach A two-semester course in analysis at the advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate level Unlike other undergraduate-level texts, Real and Complex Analysis develops both the real and complex theory together. It takes a unified, elegant approach to the theory that is consistent with the recommendations of the MAA’s 2004 Curriculum Guide. By presenting real and complex analysis together, the authors illustrate the connections and differences between these two branches of analysis right from the beginning. This combined development also allows for a more streamlined approach to real and complex function theory. Enhanced by more than 1,000 exercises, the text covers all the essential topics usually found in separate treatments of real analysis and complex analysis. Ancillary materials are available on the book’s website. This book offers a unique, comprehensive presentation of both real and complex analysis. Consequently, students will no longer have to use two separate textbooks—one for real function theory and one for complex function theory.
Ever since the seminal work of Goppa on algebraic-geometry codes, rational points on algebraic curves over finite fields have been an important research topic for algebraic geometers and coding theorists. The focus in this application of algebraic geometry to coding theory is on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points (relative to the genus). Recently, the authors discovered another important application of such curves, namely to the construction of low-discrepancy sequences. These sequences are needed for numerical methods in areas as diverse as computational physics and mathematical finance. This has given additional impetus to the theory of, and the search for, algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points. This book aims to sum up the theoretical work on algebraic curves over finite fields with many rational points and to discuss the applications of such curves to algebraic coding theory and the construction of low-discrepancy sequences.
