Finite Fields: Theory and Applications
This volume contains the proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on Finite Fields and Applications, held in Ireland, July 13-17, 2009. It includes survey papers by all invited speakers as well as selected contributed papers. Finite fields continue to grow in mathematical importance due to applications in many diverse areas. This volume contains a variety of results advancing the theory of finite fields and connections with, as well as impact on, various directions in number theory, algebra, and algebraic geometry. Areas of application include algebraic coding theory, cryptology, and combinatorial design theory.
Coding and Cryptography
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Workshop on Coding and Cryptography, WCC 2005, held in Bergen, Norway, in March 2005. The 33 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected during two rounds of review. The papers address all aspects of coding theory, cryptography and related areas, theoretical or applied.
Sequences and Their Applications - SETA 2010
This volumecontainstherefereedproceedingsoftheSixth International Conf- ence on Sequences and Their Applications (SETA 2010), held in Paris, France, September 13-17, 2010. The previous ?ve conferences were held in Singapore (RepublicofSingapore),Bergen(Norway),Seoul(SouthKorea),Beijing(China) and Lexington (USA). Topics of SETA include: – Randomness of sequences – Correlation (periodic and aperiodic types) and combinatorial aspects of - quences (di?erence sets) – Sequences with applications in coding theory and cryptography – Sequences over ?nite ?elds/rings/function ?elds – Linear and nonlinear feedback shift register sequences – Sequences for radar distance ranging, synchroniza...
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine in Europe, AIME 2001, held in Cascais, Portugal in July 2001. The 31 revised full papers presented together with 30 posters and two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 79 submissions. Among the topics addressed in their context on medical information processing are knowledge management, machine learning, data mining, decision support systems, temporal reasoning, case-based reasoning, planning and scheduling, natural language processing, computer vision, image and signal interpretation, intelligent agents, telemedicine, careflow systems, and cognitive modeling.
Clean Energy
Concerns over carbon production and diminishing fossil fuels are leading people and governments to explore cleaner forms of energy, such as wind power and solar power. This collection of articles looks at the forms of clean energy already in use as well as new, experimental forms that have not yet reached wide-scale usage. Furthermore, coverage addresses some of the controversies and unexpected effects of these new ways of producing the energy we need to survive. What is working, what isn't, and what might humans use for energy in the future?
The Governance of Solar Geoengineering
Solar geoengineering could reduce climate change, but poses risks. This volume explores how it is, could, and should be governed.
Cryptography and Coding
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th IMA International Conference on Cryptography and Coding, held in Cirencester, UK in December 2007. The 22 revised full papers presented together with two invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on signatures, boolean functions, block cipher cryptanalysis, side channels, linear complexity, public key encryption, curves, and RSA implementation.
The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change, Revised Edition
When The Cartoon Introduction to Climate Change was first published in 2014, it offered something entirely new: a fun, illustrated guide to a planetary crisis. If that sounds like an oxymoron, you’ve never seen the carbon cycle demonstrated through yoga poses or a polar bear explaining evolution to her cubs. That creativity comes from the minds of Yoram Bauman, the world’s first and only “stand-up economist,” and award-winning illustrator Grady Klein. After seeing their book used in classrooms and the halls of Congress alike, the pair has teamed up again to fully update the guide with the latest scientific data from the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). A lot has happ...
A Primer in Combinatorics
The second edition of this well-received textbook is devoted to Combinatorics and Graph Theory, which are cornerstones of Discrete Mathematics. Every section begins with simple model problems. Following their detailed analysis, the reader is led through the derivation of definitions, concepts, and methods for solving typical problems. Theorems then are formulated, proved, and illustrated by more problems of increasing difficulty.
Has It Come to This?
Geoengineering is the deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system in an attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming. Now that climate emergency is upon us, claims that geoengineering is inevitable are rapidly proliferating. How did we get into this situation where the most extreme path now seems a plausible development? Is it an accurate representation of where we are at? Who is this “we” who is talking? What options make it onto the table? Which are left out? Whom does geoengineering serve? Why is the ensemble of projects that goes by that name so salient, even though the community of researchers and advocates is remarkably small? These are some of the questions that the thinkers contributing to this volume are exploring from perspectives ranging from sociology and geography to ethics and Indigenous studies. The editors set out this diverse collection of voices not as a monolithic, unified take on geoengineering, but as a place where creative thinkers, students, and interested environmental and social justice advocates can explore nuanced ideas in more than 240 characters.
