Visualization and analysis tools, techniques, and algorithms have undergone a rapid evolution in recent decades to accommodate explosive growth in data size and complexity and to exploit emerging multi- and many-core computational platforms. High Performance Visualization: Enabling Extreme-Scale Scientific Insight focuses on the subset of scientific visualization concerned with algorithm design, implementation, and optimization for use on today s largest computational platforms.

The book collects some of the most seminal work in the field, including...

AUTHOR: Chris McMullen earned his Ph.D. in physics from Oklahoma State University and currently teaches physics at Northwestern State University of Louisiana. He developed the Improve Your Math Fluency series of workbooks to help students become more fluent in basic math skills.

PRACTICE: This is a practice workbook geared toward practicing problem-solving skills. As such, it consists of worksheets with practice problems in the spirit of old-fashioned practice sheets. This is suitable for students who need to practice basic skills, and is effective for many...

Cet ouvrage est une introduction a la theorie spectrale du laplacien sur les surfaces hyperboliques (de courbure 1), compactes ou d'aire finie. Pour certaines de ces surfaces, dites - surfaces hyperboliques arithmetiques -, les fonctions propres sont des objets de nature arithmetique et des outils d'analyse sont employes conjointement a des methodes puissantes de theorie des nombres pour les etudier. Apres une introduction a la geometrie hyperbolique des surfaces insistant sur celles qui sont arithmetiques, puis une introduction aux methodes d'analyse spectrale de l'operateur de Laplace sur...

Do the Math - the way your grandmother did. A simple step-by-step guide to doing arithmetic the way it was taught 50 years ago when American high school graduates led the world in math and science. High school graduates, even those who were not college- bound, knew how to count back change or work with fractions and decimals in measuring and calculating necessary materials for construction, manufacturing, decorating, sewing, etc, and balance a checkbook. ( ) The key is keeping it simple. This method worked then, and it still works today.

First published in 1982, this reissue contains a critical exposition of the views of Frege, Dedekind and Peano on the foundations of arithmetic. The last quarter of the 19th century witnessed a remarkable growth of interest in the foundations of arithmetic. This work analyses both the reasons for this growth of interest within both mathematics and philosophy and the ways in which this study of the foundations of arithmetic led to new insights in philosophy and striking advances in logic.

This historical-critical study provides an excellent introduction to the problems of the...

We hear all the time how American children are falling behind their global peers in various basic subjects, but particularly in math. Is it our fear of math that constrains us? Or our inability to understand math's place in relation to our everyday lives? How can we help our children better understand the basics of arithmetic if we're not really sure we understand them ourselves? Here, G. Arnell Williams helps parents and teachers explore the world of math that their elementary school children are learning. Taking readers on a tour of the history of arithmetic, and its growth into the subject...

In Arithmetic Village, there are only two rules: be kind to each other and share all the jewels. This first book in a series of five which use characters, rhyme and color to introduce the basic math concepts. This book explains number placement with easy to understand symbols: One jewel = 1, a golden bag represents 10, and a treasure chest equals 100. Number placement is a vital part of understanding future math concepts. This gentle math book is suitable for all children.

"Polly Plus" is the second book in the Arithmetic Village series, which teaches math simply and gently through whimsical characters and rhyme. Polly introduces the concept of addition by collecting and adding jewels to give to the King. Join her journey and help her add along the way Visit www.arithmeticvillage.com

Linus Minus, the third book in the Arithmetic Village series, teaches subtraction simply and quickly through characters and rhyme. Linus playfully introduces the concept, while joyfully losing jewels throughout the village. For more information visit www.arithmeticvillage.com

Tina Times discovered the trick of counting in groups to make adding quick This fourth book, in the "Arithmetic Village series, teaches math simply and gently through characters, color and rhyme. For more information visit arithmeticvillage.com

King David Divide is mighty and wise, sharing jewels equally is what he decides. This is the last book in a picture book series, Arithmetic Village which teaches math simply and gently though characters, color and rhyme. King David introduces the concept of division by equally distributing jewels throughout the village. His dog, Rover gets the remainder. For more information visit arithmeticvillage.com

In programming courses, using the different syntax of multiple languages, such as C++, Java, PHP, and Python, for the same abstraction often confuses students new to computer science. Introduction to Programming Languages separates programming language concepts from the restraints of multiple language syntax by discussing the concepts at an abstract level.

Designed for a one-semester undergraduate course, this classroom-tested book teaches the principles of programming language design and implementation. It presents:

• Common features of...

The first edition of Robert Recorde's The Grounde of Artes was printed in London, at the sign of the Brazen Serpent, by Reynold Wolfe in 1543. The book teaches the rules and operations of arithmetic and provides many simple examples. It was probably intended as a textbook for the rapidly increasing number of mercantile clerks, but also for mariners engaged in the newly important science of celestial navigation. Recorde first shows how to carry out numerical operations using pen and paper, which in his time was a comparatively new and potentially confusing way of performing calculations. He...

Through examples and analogies, Computational Thinking for the Modern Problem Solver introduces computational thinking as part of an introductory computing course and shows how computer science concepts are applicable to other fields. It keeps the material accessible and relevant to noncomputer science majors.

With numerous color figures, this classroom-tested book focuses on both foundational computer science concepts and engineering topics. It covers abstraction, algorithms, logic, graph theory, social issues of software, and numeric modeling as well as...

Gift your child endlessly rewarding skills they can cherish lifelong.
