The Mathematical Artist
This book brings together the impact of Prof. John Horton Conway, the playful and legendary mathematician's wide range of contributions in science which includes research areas—Game of Life in cellular automata, theory of finite groups, knot theory, number theory, combinatorial game theory, and coding theory. It contains transcripts where some eminent scientists have shared their first-hand experience of interacting with Conway, as well as some invited research articles from the experts focusing on Game of Life, cellular automata, and the diverse research directions that started with Conway's Game of Life. The book paints a portrait of Conway's research life and philosophical direction in mathematics and is of interest to whoever wants to explore his contribution to the history and philosophy of mathematics and computer science. It is designed as a small tribute to Prof. Conway whom we lost on April 11, 2020.
Fundamentals Of Fluid Mechanics
Understanding the fundamentals of fluid mechanics is crucial for any analysis involving a system whereby a fluid serves as the working medium. Fluid mechanics is used to the design of practically all transportation modes. Knowledge of fluid mechanics is necessary for the design of subsonic and supersonic aircraft, ground effect machines, hovercraft, airplanes that take off and land vertically with a minimal surface ships, runway length, submarines, and vehicles. Even within fluid mechanics, there are subfields. Hydrodynamics is the field of study that focuses on the study of the movement of fluids that may be roughly considered incompressible. Hydraulics is a subfield of hydrodynamics that studies the movement of liquids across closed and open channels. The study of fluids whose density drastically varies during motion is known as gas dynamics; this includes the passage of gases via nozzles at high velocities. At either high or low speeds, aerodynamics examines how gases (particularly air) move over moving bodies like airplanes, rockets, and cars. Natural flows are the domain of many different subdisciplines, including meteorology, oceanography, and hydrology.
In the Crossfire of History
In the global south, women have and continue to resist multiple forms of structural violence. The atrocities committed against Yazidi women by ISIS have been recognized internationally, and the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Nadia Murad in 2018 was a tribute to honor women whose bodies have been battered in the name of race, nationality, war, and religion. In the Crossfire of History:Women's War Resistance Discourse in the Global South is an edited collection that incorporates literary works, testimonies, autobiographies, women’s resistance movements, and films that add to the conversation on the resilience of women in the global south. The collection focuses on Palestine, Kashmir, Syria, Ku...
Proceedings of Second Asian Symposium on Cellular Automata Technology
This book gathers selected research papers presented at the Second Asian Symposium on Cellular Automata Technology (ASCAT 2023), organized by academicians from Kolkata at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur, West Bengal, India, and by researchers of Cellular Automata India, a research group which was created during the pandemic, during March 2–4, 2023. The book presents one of the most emergent areas in natural computing, cellular automaton (CA). CA is a paradigm of uniform fine-grained parallel computation which has been explored to understand complex systems by developing its model at the microscopic level. The book discusses many real-life problems in the domain of pattern recognition and classification, clustering, electronic circuit design, bioinformatics, material and mining engineering, modelling of physical and social systems, etc., by using CA.
Border, Globalization and Identity
This collection investigates the complex and myriad relations between identity and borders in an increasingly globalized world. The movement towards a borderless world, bolstered by an unprecedented development in information and communication technology, forces us to rethink traditional notions of singular identity, and directs us towards the need for engaging and negotiating with the world in multiple ways. Employing a wide range of critical approaches to works that examine and explore the contested terrain of globalization and the hotly disputed arena of borders, the essays brought together here offer innovative perspectives through which issues of borders, globalization and identity can be negotiated. Straddling various genres, this collection represents an investigation of the conflicting relationship between identity and borders in the contemporary globalized world.
Proceedings of First Asian Symposium on Cellular Automata Technology
This book gathers selected research papers presented at the First Asian Symposium on Cellular Automata Technology (ASCAT 2022), organized online by academicians from Kolkata, India, during March 3–5, 2022. The book presents one of the most emergent areas in natural computing, cellular automaton (CA). CA is a paradigm of uniform fine-grained parallel computation which has been explored to understand complex systems by developing its model at the microscopic level. The book discusses many real-life problems in the domain of very large-scale integration (VLSI) design and test, pattern recognition and classification, cryptography, pseudo-random pattern generation, image processing, sensor networks, material science, etc., by using CA.
Recent Advances in Natural Computing
This book highlights recent advances in natural computing, including biology and its theory, bio-inspired computing, computational aesthetics, computational models and theories, computing with natural media, philosophy of natural computing and educational technology. It presents extended versions of the best papers selected from the symposium “7th International Workshop on Natural Computing” (IWNC7), held in Tokyo, Japan, in 2013. The target audience is not limited to researchers working in natural computing but also those active in biological engineering, fine/media art design, aesthetics and philosophy.
Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence, PReMI 2013, held in Kolkata, India in December 2013. The 101 revised papers presented together with 9 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on pattern recognition; machine learning; image processing; speech and video processing; medical imaging; document image processing; soft computing; bioinformatics and computational biology; and social media mining.
Reversibility and Universality
This book is a tribute to Kenichi Morita’s ideas and achievements in theoretical computer science, reversibility and computationally universal mathematical machines. It offers a unique source of information on universality and reversibility in computation and is an indispensable book for computer scientists, mathematicians, physicists and engineers. Morita is renowned for his works on two-dimensional language accepting automata, complexity of Turing machines, universality of cellular automata, regular and context-free array grammars, and undecidability. His high-impact works include findings on parallel generation and parsing of array languages by means of reversible automata, construction...
