The Handbook of Data Structures and Applications responds to the needs of students, professionals and researchers who need a mainstream reference on data structures by providing a comprehensive survey of data structures of various types. This second edition has been revised and updated, with new chapters on binary decision diagrams, kd trees and data structures in cheminformatics, geophysics applications and large-scale graph processing in the cloud.

This volume is the umbilical offshoot of its 'mother book', Science and the Soul. Both are truly original works. We begin by linking with the latter. Then, using facts from palaeoanthropology, biology (classical and molecular), information theory, design theory and philosophy, A Mutant Ape? assesses the two main interpretations of your human origin.

The simple difference between these interpretations is identified. So also are the differences between man and ape. Thence the book follows the course of palaeoanthropological history until the second world war and deals...

Das primare Ziel von Peter Gewald ist die Erkennung und Visualisierung diverser Angriffsszenarien im Mobilfunkbereich, wie z. B. die Kontrolle uber den Datenverkehr, Man-in-the-Middle-Angriffe sowie die Ausfuhrung von Programmcodes uber SMS. Die Ergebnisse seiner Forschung geben einen Einblick in die Handlungsmoglichkeiten potenzieller Akteure und fungieren gleichzeitig als erste praventive Schutzmanahme. Fruhzeitige Bildung und der Einsatz offener Standards und Software bilden die Grundsteine transparenter Technologien. Die Nachvollziehbarkeit komplexer technischer Funktionen und Ablaufe...

Universal codes efficiently compress sequences generated by stationary and ergodic sources with unknown statistics, and they were originally designed for lossless data compression. In the meantime, it was realized that they can be used for solving important problems of prediction and statistical analysis of time series, and this book describes recent results in this area.

The first chapter introduces and describes the application of universal codes to prediction and the statistical analysis of time series; the second chapter describes applications of selected statistical methods...

Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms provides a systematic introduction to all major nature-inspired algorithms for optimization. The book's unified approach, balancing algorithm introduction, theoretical background and practical implementation, complements extensive literature with well-chosen case studies to illustrate how these algorithms work. Topics include particle swarm optimization, ant and bee algorithms, simulated annealing, cuckoo search, firefly algorithm, bat algorithm, flower algorithm, harmony search, algorithm analysis, constraint handling, hybrid methods,...

Das Herausgeberwerk zeigt, welche Auswirkungen der Einsatz von mobilen Endgeraten auf betriebliche Ablaufe hat und wie Anwendungsszenarien in verschiedenen Branchen aussehen konnen. Hierzu werden u. a. Beispiele aus dem Personalmanagement und dem Gesundheitswesen vorgestellt. Experten aus Wissenschaft und Praxis diskutieren Fragen rund um das Mobile Enterprise ebenso, wie die Gestaltung mobiler Prozesse im ERP und mobiles e-Learning.

Dieser Band bietet damit all jenen Lesern und Wissenschaftlern neue Einsichten, die sich fur das Thema mobile Anwendungen umfassend...

This book aims at presenting the field of Quantum Information Theory in an intuitive, didactic and self-contained way, taking into account several multidisciplinary aspects. Therefore, this books is particularly suited to students and researchers willing to grasp fundamental concepts in Quantum Computation and Quantum Information areas.

The Author of this new volume on ant communication demonstrates that information theory is a valuable tool for studying the natural communication of animals. To do so, she pursues a fundamentally new approach to studying animal communication and "linguistic" capacities on the basis of measuring the rate of information transmission and the complexity of transmitted messages.

Animals' communication systems and cognitive abilities have long-since been a topic of particular interest to biologists, psychologists, linguists, and many others, including researchers in the fields of robotics...

Diese Arbeit prasentiert AutoPar, ein neuartiges Verfahren zur Transformation bestehender Software, welches sequenzielle Ausgangsmuster bestimmt und in parallele Softwarearchitekturen umwandelt. Die Evaluierung belegt, dass AutoPar dieselbe Leistung erreicht wie erfahrene Entwickler. AutoPar benotigt dafur lediglich wenige Minuten statt mehrerer Tage intensiver Arbeit im manuellen Fall. Eine empirische Studie mit Softwareentwicklern zeigt daruber hinaus, dass AutoPar in kurzerer Zeit signifikant mehr Parallelisierungspotenzial zutage fordert als existierende...
