This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International GI/ITG Conference on Measurement, Modelling and Evaluation of Computing Systems and Dependability and Fault Tolerance, MMB & DFT 2016, held in Munster, Germany, in April 2016.

The 12 full papers and 3 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. The papers deal with the fields of performance evaluation, dependability, and fault-tolerance of computer and communication systems. A relatively new topic of smart grids is also covered.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Internet Science held in Florence, Italy, in September 2016.

The 25 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. They were organized in topical sections named: collective awareness and crowdsourcing platforms, collaboration, privacy and conformity in virtual/social environments; internet interoperability, freedom and data analysis; smart cities and sociotechnical systems.

With this book, Onn Shehory and Arnon Sturm, together with further contributors, introduce the reader to various facets of agent-oriented software engineering (AOSE). They provide a selected collection of state-of-the-art findings, which combines research from information systems, artificial intelligence, distributed systems and software engineering and covers essential development aspects of agent-based systems.

The book chapters are organized into five parts. The first part introduces the AOSE domain in general, including introduction to agents and the peculiarities of software...

This practically-focused text presents a hands-on guide to making biometric technology work in real-life scenarios. Extensively revised and updated, this new edition takes a fresh look at what it takes to integrate biometrics into wider applications. An emphasis is placed on the importance of a complete understanding of the broader scenario, covering technical, human and implementation factors. This understanding may then be exercised through interactive chapters dealing with educational software utilities and the BANTAM Program Manager.

Topics and features: provides a concise...

Temporal Data Mining via Unsupervised Ensemble Learning provides the principle knowledge of temporal data mining in association with unsupervised ensemble learning and the fundamental problems of temporal data clustering from different perspectives. By providing three proposed ensemble approaches of temporal data clustering, this book presents a practical focus of fundamental knowledge and techniques, along with a rich blend of theory and practice.

Furthermore, the book includes illustrations of the proposed approaches based on data and simulation experiments to demonstrate...

Big Data Analytics for Sensor-Network Collected Intelligence explores state-of-the-art methods for using advanced ICT technologies to perform intelligent analysis on sensor collected data. The book shows how to develop systems that automatically detect natural and human-made events, how to examine people's behaviors, and how to unobtrusively provide better services.

It begins by exploring big data architecture and platforms, covering the cloud computing infrastructure and how data is stored and visualized. The book then explores how big data is processed and managed, the key...

Cognitive Information Systems in Management Sciences summarizes the body of work in this area, taking an analytical approach to interpreting the data, while also providing an approach that can be used for practical implementation in the fields of computing, economics, and engineering.

Using numerous illustrative examples, and following both theoretical and practical results, Dr. Lidia Ogiela discusses the concepts and principles of cognitive information systems, the relationship between intelligent computer data analysis, and how to utilize computational intelligent...
