AN INTRODUCTION TO OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING IN C++ // , S.;

This book introduces the art of programming in C++. The topics covered range from simple C++ programmes to programme features such as classes, templates, and namespaces. Emphasis is placed on developing a good programming technique and demonstrating when and how to use the advanced features of C++. This revised and extended second edition includ...

ALGEBRA, GEOMETRY AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS // , S.;

A collection of surveys and research papers on mathematical software and algorithms. The common thread is that the field of mathematical applications lies on the border between algebra and geometry. Topics include polyhedral geometry, elimination theory, algebraic surfaces, Gröbner bases, triangulations of point sets and the mutual relationship....

SMART CARD APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT USING JAVA // , S.; , Nicklous; , Hansmann;

Smart cards play an increasingly important role in everyday life. We encounter them as credit cards, loyalty cards, electronic purses, health cards, ands as secure tokens for authentication or digital signatures. Their small size and the compatibility of their form with the magnetic stripe card make them ideal carriers of personal information su...

DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE // , S.;

Apollo was known for its engineering triumphs, but its success also came from a disciplined management style. This excellent account of one of the most important personalities in early American human spaceflight history describes for the first time how George E. Mueller, the system manager of the human spaceflight program of the 1960s, applied t...

HETEROGENEOUS MULTICORE PROCESSOR TECHNOLOGIES FOR EMBEDDED SYSTEMS // , Iwata; , A.; , S.; , Idehara; , Tawara; , Noda; , Nojiri; , Kasahara; , Uchiyama;

To satisfy the higher requirements of digitally converged embedded systems, this book describes heterogeneous multicore technology that uses various kinds of low-power embedded processor cores on a single chip. With this technology, heterogeneous parallelism can be implemented on an SoC, and greater flexibility and superior performance per watt ...

INTERDISCIPLINARY COMPUTING IN JAVA PROGRAMMING // , S.;

Books on computation in the marketplace tend to discuss the topics within specific fields. Many computational algorithms, however, share common roots. Great advantages emerge if numerical methodologies break the boundaries and find their uses across disciplines. Interdisciplinary Computing In Java Programming Language introduces readers of dif...

Friction Material Composites is the first volume of the five volumes which strongly educates and updates engineers and other professionals in braking industries, research and test labs. It explains besides the formulation of design processes and its complete manufacturing input. This book gives an idea of mechanisms of friction and how to cont...

ENGINEERING SECURE TWO-PARTY COMPUTATION PROTOCOLS // , S.;

Secure two-party computation, called secure function evaluation (SFE), enables two mutually mistrusting parties, the client and server, to evaluate an arbitrary function on their respective private inputs while revealing nothing but the result. Originally the technique was considered to be too inefficient for practical privacy-preserving applica...
