Restricted-Orientation Convexity
Restricted-orientation convexity is the study of geometric objects whose intersections with lines from some fixed set are connected. This notion generalizes standard convexity and several types of nontraditional convexity. The authors explore the properties of this generalized convexity in multidimensional Euclidean space, and describ restricted-orientation analogs of lines, hyperplanes, flats, halfspaces, and identify major properties of standard convex sets that also hold for restricted-orientation convexity. They then introduce the notion of strong restricted-orientation convexity, which is an alternative generalization of convexity, and show that its properties are also similar to that of standard convexity.
Implementation and Application of Automata
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed papers of the 16th International Conference on Implementation and Application of Automata, CIAA 2011, held in Blois, France, in July 2011. The 20 revised full papers together with 4 short papers were carefully selected from 38 submissions. The papers cover various topics such as applications of automata in computer-aided verification; natural language processing; pattern matching, data storage and retrieval; document engineering and bioinformatics as well as foundational work on automata theory.
Computational Geometry - Methods, Algorithms and Applications
Radiocarbon After Four Decades: An Interdisciplinary Perspective commemorates the 40th anniversary of radiocarbon dating. The volume presents discussions of every aspect of this dating technique, as well as chronicles of its development and views of future advancements and applications. All of the 64 authors played major roles in establishment, development or application of this revolutionary scientific tool. The 35 chapters provide a solid foundation in the essential topics of radiocarbon dating: Historical Perspectives; The Natural Carbon Cycle; Instrumentation and Sample Preparation; Hydrology; Old World Archaeology; New World Archaeology; Earth Sciences; and Biomedical Applications.
New Results and New Trends in Computer Science
This volume contains selected papers from the symposium "New Results and NewTrends in Computer Science" held in Graz, Austria, June 20-21, 1991. The symposium was organized to give a wide-ranging overview of new work in the field on the occasion of the fiftieth birthday of the editor of the volume. Topics covered include: information on neural nets, ideas on a new paradigm for informatics, hypermedia systems and applications, axioms for concurrent processes, techniques for image generation and compression, the role of data visualization, object-oriented programming andgraphics, algorithms for layout compaction, new methods in database systems, the future of data networks, object-oriented art...
Arto Salomaa: Mathematician, Computer Scientist, and Teacher
This book outlines the scientific career of Arto Salomaa, a pioneer in theoretical computer science and mathematics. The author first interviewed the subject and his family and collaborators, and he then researched this fascinating biography of an intellectual who was key in the development of these fields. Early chapters progress chronologically from Academician Salomaa's origins, childhood, and education to his professional successes in science, teaching, and publishing. His most impactful direct research efforts have been in the areas of automata and formal languages. Beyond that he has influenced many more scientists and professionals through collaborations, teaching, and books on topics...
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.
Computer Science in Perspective
By presenting state-of-the-art aspects of theoretical computer science and practical applications in various fields, this book commemorates the 60th birthday of Thomas Ottmann. The 26 research papers presented span the whole range of Thomas Ottmann's scientific career, from formal languages to algorithms and data structures, from topics in practical computer science like software engineering or database systems to applications of Web technology, groupware, and e-learning.
Advances in Computing and Information - ICCI '91
This volume contains papers presented at the Third International Conference on Computing and Information, ICCI '91, held at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, May 27-29, 1991. The conference was organized by the School of Computer Science at Carleton University, and was sponsored by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and Carleton University. ICCI '91 was an international forum for the presentation of original results in research, development, and applications in computing and information processing. The conference was aimed at both practitioners and theoreticians, and was organized into five streams: - Algorithms and complexity, - Databases and information systems, - Parallel processing and systems, - Distributed computing and systems, - Expert systems, artificial intelligence. This volume contains three invited papers, by E.C.R. Hehner, R.L. Probert, and S.J. Smith, and 71 selected papers.
Implementation and Application of Automata
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Implementation and Application of Automata, CIAA 2005, held in Sophia Antipolis, France, in June 2005. The 26 revised full papers and 8 revised poster papers presented together with 2 invited contributions were selected from 87 submissions and have gone through two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The topics covered show applications of automata in many fields, including mathematics, linguistics, networks, XML processing, biology and music.
Combinatorial Pattern Matching
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching, CPM 2005, held in Jeju island, Korea on June 19-22, 2005. The 37 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 129 submissions. They constitute original research contributions in combinatorial pattern matching and its applications. Among the application fields addressed are computational biology, bioinformatics, genomics, proteinomics, data compression, Sequence Analysis and Graphs, information retrieval, data analysis, and pattern recognition.
