Logic Programming
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Logic Programming, ICLP 2003, held in Mumbai, India in December 2003. The 23 revised full papers and 19 poster papers presented together with 5 invited full contributions and abstracts of 4 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. All current issues in logic programming are addressed.
Handbook of Parallel Constraint Reasoning
This is the first book presenting a broad overview of parallelism in constraint-based reasoning formalisms. In recent years, an increasing number of contributions have been made on scaling constraint reasoning thanks to parallel architectures. The goal in this book is to overview these achievements in a concise way, assuming the reader is familiar with the classical, sequential background. It presents work demonstrating the use of multiple resources from single machine multi-core and GPU-based computations to very large scale distributed execution platforms up to 80,000 processing units. The contributions in the book cover the most important and recent contributions in parallel propositional...
Evolutionary Biology
Since 1997, scientists of different disciplines sharing a deep interest in concepts and knowledge related to evolutionary biology have held the annual Evolutionary Biology Meetings in Marseille in order to discuss their research and promote collaboration. Lately scientists especially focusing on applications have also joined the group. This book starts with the report of the "12th Evolutionary Biology Meeting", which gives a general idea of the meeting’s epistemological stance. This is followed by 22 chapters, a selection of the most representative contributions, which are grouped under the following four themes: Part I Concepts and Knowledge - Part II Modelization - Part III Applied Evolutionary Biology - Part IV Applications in Other Fields -Part IV transcends the field of biology, presenting applications of evolutionary biology in economics and astronomy.
Human-Computer Interaction
This volume, one of a two volume set, is from the August 1999 HCI International conference papers presented in Munich, Germany. Human Computer Interaction: Communication, Cooperation, and Application Design focuses on the informative and communicative aspects of computer use. A larger number of contributions is concerned with computer-supported cooperation using a wide variety of different techniques. In keeping with the increased focus of HCI International '99 on internet issues and aspects of the global information society, many papers in this volume are centered around information and communication networks and their implications for work, learning, and every-day activities. Due to the growing number and diversity of groups utilizing modern information technologies, issues of accessibility and design for all are becoming more and more pertinent. A range of papers in this volume address these issues and provide the latest research and development results.
Computational Logic — CL 2000
These are the proceedings of the First International Conference on Compu- tional Logic (CL 2000) which was held at Imperial College in London from 24th to 28th July, 2000. The theme of the conference covered all aspects of the theory, implementation, and application of computational logic, where computational logic is to be understood broadly as the use of logic in computer science. The conference was collocated with the following events: { 6th International Conference on Rules and Objects in Databases (DOOD 2000) { 10th International Workshop on Logic-based Program Synthesis and Tra- formation (LOPSTR 2000) { 10th International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming (ILP 2000). CL 2000 c...
Euro-Par 2005 Parallel Processing
Euro-Par 2005 was the eleventh conference in the Euro-Par series. It was organized by the Centre for Informatics and Information Technology (CITI) and the Department of Informatics of the Faculty of Science and Technology of Universidade Nova de Lisboa, at the Campus of Monte de Caparica.
Energy Sustainability through Retail Electricity Markets
The world is moving away from demand-driven electricity markets supplied by centralized generation and distribution of fossil-fuel-produced electricity. Increasing reliance on weather-dependent renewable sources will require a shift toward a supply-driven paradigm, while beneficial electrification, including widespread adoption of electric vehicles, heat pumps, and batteries will offer considerable but widely distributed demand flexibility that can be used to compensate for supply variability. The open-source Power Trading Agent Competition (Power TAC) platform simulates a decentralized future, modeling the high complexity of future retail electricity markets. This book describes a variety o...
Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications, ISPA 2004, held in Hong Kong, China in December 2004. The 78 revised full papers and 38 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 361 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on parallel algorithms and systems, data mining and management, distributed algorithms and systems, fault tolerance protocols and systems, sensor networks and protocols, cluster systems, grid applications and systems, peer-to-peer and ad hoc networking, grid scheduling and algorithms, data replication and caching, software engineering and testing, grid protocols, context-aware and mobile computing, distributed routing and switching protocols, cluster resource scheduling and algorithms, security, high performance processing, networking and protocols, artificial intelligence systems, hardware architecture and implementations, high performance computing architecture, and distributed systems architecture.
Functional and Logic Programming
This volume contains the proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS 2004), held in Nara, Japan, April 7-9, 2004 at the New Public Hall, Nara. FLOPS is a forum for research on all issues concerning functional programming and logic programming. In particular it aims to stimulate the cross-fertilization as well as the integration of the two paradigms. The previous FLOPS meetings took place in Fuji-Susono (1995), Shonan (1996), Kyoto (1998), Tsukuba (1999), Tokyo(2001)and Aizu (2002). The proceedings of FLOPS 1999,FLOPS 2001 and FLOPS 2002 were published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series, as volumes 1722, 2024 and 24...
Logic Programming and Nonmonotonic Reasoning
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Logic Programming and Nonmonotonic Reasoning, LPNMR 2005, held in Diamante, Italy in September 2005. The 25 revised full papers, 16 revised for the system and application tracks presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected for presentation. Among the topics addressed are semantics of new and existing languages; relationships between formalisms; complexity and expressive power; LPNMR systems: development of inference algorithms and search heuristics, updates and other operations, uncertainty, and applications in planning, diagnosis, system descriptions, comparisons and evaluations; software engineering, decision making, and other domains; LPNMR languages: extensions by new logical connectives and new inference capabilities, applications in data integration and exchange systems, and methodology of representing knowledge.
