Collects in four chapters single monographs related to the fundamental advances in parallel computer systems and their developments from different points of view (from computer scientists, computer manufacturers, end users) and related to the establishment and evolution of grids fundamentals, implementation and deployment.
Video games represent a unique blend of programming, art, music, and unbridled creativity. To the general public, they are perhaps the most exciting computer applications ever undertaken. In the field of computer science, they have been the impetus for a continuous stream of innovations designed to provide gaming enthusiasts with the most realistic and enjoyable gaming experience possible. Algorithmic and Architectural Gaming Design: Implementation and Development discusses the most recent advances in the field of video game design, with particular emphasis on practical examples of game development, including design and implementation. The target audience of this book includes educators, students, practitioners, professionals, and researchers working in the area of video game design and development. Anyone actively developing video games will benefit from the practical application of fundamental computer science concepts demonstrated in this book.
Making Grids Work includes selected articles from the CoreGRID Workshop on Grid Programming Models, Grid and P2P Systems Architecture, Grid Systems, Tools and Environments held at the Institute of Computer Science, Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas in Crete, Greece, June 2007. This workshop brought together representatives of the academic and industrial communities performing Grid research in Europe. Organized within the context of the CoreGRID Network of Excellence, this workshop provided a forum for the presentation and exchange of views on the latest developments in Grid Technology research. This volume is the 7th in the series of CoreGRID books. Making Grids Work is designed for a professional audience, composed of researchers and practitioners in industry. This volume is also suitable for graduate-level students in computer science.
Proceedings -- Parallel Computing.
This book is the fifth volume of the CoreGRID series. Organized jointly with the Euro-Par 2007 conference, The CoreGRID Symposium intends to become the premiere European event on Grid Computing. The aim of this symposium is to strengthen and advance scientific and technological excellence in the area of Grid and Peer-to-Peer Computing. The book includes all aspects of Grid Computing including service infrastructure. It is designed for a professional audience composed of researchers and practitioners in industry. This volume is also suitable for advanced-level students in computer science.
Structuring, or, as it is referred to in the title of this book, the art of structuring, is one of the core elements in the discipline of Information Systems. While the world is becoming increasingly complex, and a growing number of disciplines are evolving to help make it a better place, structure is what is needed in order to understand and combine the various perspectives and approaches involved. Structure is the essential component that allows us to bridge the gaps between these different worlds, and offers a medium for communication and exchange. The contributions in this book build these bridges, which are vital in order to communicate between different worlds of thought and methodology – be it between Information Systems (IS) research and practice, or between IS research and other research disciplines. They describe how structuring can be and should be done so as to foster communication and collaboration. The topics covered reflect various layers of structure that can serve as bridges: models, processes, data, organizations, and technologies. In turn, these aspects are complemented by visionary outlooks on how structure influences the field.
This book gathers research contributions on recent advances in intelligent and distributed computing. A major focus is placed on new techniques and applications for several highlydemanded research directions: Internet of Things, Cloud Computing and Big Data, Data Mining and Machine Learning, Multi-agent and Service-Based Distributed Systems, Distributed Algorithms and Optimization, Modeling Operational Processes, Social Network Analysis and Inappropriate Content Counteraction, Cyber-Physical Security and Safety, Intelligent Distributed Decision Support Systems, Intelligent Human-Machine Interfaces, VisualAnalytics and others. The book represents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the 13thInternational Symposium on Intelligent Distributed Computing (IDC 2019), which was held in St. Petersburg, Russia, from October 7 to 9, 2019.
The PaCT-2009 (Parallel Computing Technologies) conference was a four-day eventheld in Novosibirsk. This was the tenth internationalconference to be held in the PaCT series. The conferences are held in Russia every odd year. The ?rst conference, PaCT 1991, was held in Novosibirsk (Academgorodok), September 7–11, 1991. The next PaCT conferences were held in Obninsk (near Moscow), August 30 to September 4, 1993; in St. Petersburg, September 12–15, 1995; in Yaroslavl, September 9–12, 1997; in Pushkin (near St. Petersburg), September 6–10, 1999; in Academgorodok (Novosibirsk), September 3–7, 2001; in Nizhni Novgorod, September 15–19, 2003; in Krasnoyarsk, September 5–9, 2005; in Pe...
This book contains the thoroughly refereed papers from the 9th International Ershov Informatics Conference, PSI 2014, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in June 2014. The 17 revised full papers, 11 revised short papers, and 2 system and experimental papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. The volume also contains 5 keynote talks which cover a range of hot topics in computer science and informatics. The papers cover various topics related to the foundations of program and system development and analysis, programming methodology and software engineering and information technologies.
