Networks and Grids: Technology and Theory (Information Technology: Transmission, Processing and Storage)
Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 0387367586 | edition 2007 | PDF | 286 pages | 11,4 mb
This textbook is intended for an undergraduate/graduate course on computer networks and for introductory courses dealing with performance evaluation of computers, networks, grids and telecommunication systems. Unlike other books on the subject, this text presents a balanced approach between technology and mathematical modeling. It covers networking and grid technology, algorithms (routing, error codes, protocol verification) and analysis (probability for networking with technological examples, queueing models and divisible load scheduling theory). This self-contained text progresses systematically and gives students numerous problems at the end of each chapter. Students in electrical engineering, computer engineering and computer science departments will benefit from this book as will engineers and computer scientists working in relevant fields. A separate solutions manual is available to instructors. More

The Photoshop CS2 Book for Digital Photographers
Publisher: New Riders Press | ISBN: 0321330625 | edition 2005 | CHM | 480 pages | 64,3 mb
Scott Kelby, the best-selling Photoshop author in the world today, once again takes this book to a whole new level as he uncovers the latest, most important and most exciting new Adobe Photoshop CS2 techniques for digital photographers.
This major update to this award-winning, record-breaking book does something for digital photographers that's never been done before–it
cuts through the bull and shows you exactly "how to do it." It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge you to come up with your own
settings or figure it out on your own. Instead, Scott shows you step-by-step the exact techniques used by today's cutting-edge digital
photographers and, best of all, he shows you, flat-out, exactly which settings to use, when to use them, and why. That's why the previous
version of this book took the digital photography world by storm. But now, his new CS2, version is even bigger, even better, and exposes even more of the pros most closely guarded secrets, including a special chapter which shows, for the first time ever, step-by-step how to how to set-up Photoshop's color management. He does it by throwing out all the theory, all the techno-babble, and all the confusing charts and graphs and instead just shows you exactly what you need to do (and nothing more). More

Adaptive Image Processing: A Computational Intelligence Perspective
Publisher: CRC Press | ISBN: 0849302838 | edition 2001 | PDF | 271 pages | 13 mb
Adaptive image processing is one of the most important techniques in visual information processing, especially in early vision such as image restoration, filtering, enhancement, and segmentation. While existing books present some important aspects of the issue, there is not a single book that treats this problem from a viewpoint that is directly linked to human perception - until now. This reference treats adaptive image processing from a computational intelligence viewpoint, systematically and successfully, from theory to applications, using the synergies of neural networks, fuzzy logic, and evolutionary computation. Based on the fundamentals of human perception, this book gives a detailed account of computational intelligence methods and algorithms for adaptive image processing in regularization, edge detection, and early vision.Adaptive Image Processing: A Computational Intelligence Perspective consists of 8 chapters:Chapter 1 - Provides material of an introductory nature to describe the basic concepts and current state-of-the-art in the field of computational intelligence for image restoration and edge detectionChapter 2 - Gives a mathematical description of the restoration problem from the neural network perspective, and describes current algorithms based on this method...

The Didactical Challenge of Symbolic Calculators: Turning a Computational Device into a Mathematical Instrument
Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 0387231587 | edition 2004 | PDF | 314 pages | 13,7 mb
While computational technologies are transforming the professional practice of mathematics, as yet they have had little impact on school mathematics. This pioneering text develops a theorized analysis of why this is and what can be done to address it. It examines the particular case of symbolic calculators (equipped with computer algebra systems) in secondary education. Drawing on a substantial program of French innovation and research, as well as closely related studies from Australia and the Netherlands, it provides rich illustrations of the many aspects of technology integration, and of the ways in which these are shaped at different levels of the educational institution. This pioneering text develops a theorized analysis of why this is and what can be done to address it. It examines the particular case of symbolic calculators (equipped with computer algebra systems) in secondary education. More
