This book represents the refereed proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods in Scientific Computing which was held at the National University of Singapore in the year 2002. An important feature are invited surveys of the state of the art in key areas such as multidimensional numerical integration, low-discrepancy point sets, computational complexity, finance, and other applications of Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods. These proceedings also include carefully selected contributed papers on all aspects of Monte Carlo and...

Recently, the field of quantum computation and information has been developing through a fusion of results from various research fields in theoretical and practical areas. This book consists of the reviews of selected topics charterized by great progress and cover the field from theoretical areas to experimental ones. It contains fundamental areas, quantum query complexity, quantum statistical inference, quantum cloning, quantum entanglement, additivity. It treats three types of quantum security system, quantum public key cryptography, quantum key distribution, and quantum steganography. A...

Exploring new variations of classical methods as well as recent approaches appearing in the field, Computational Fluid Dynamics demonstrates the extensive use of numerical techniques and mathematical models in fluid mechanics. It presents various numerical methods, including finite volume, finite difference, finite element, spectral, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), mixed-element-volume, and free surface flow.

Taking a unified point of view, the book first introduces the basis of finite volume, weighted residual, and spectral approaches. The contributors present the SPH method, a...

Many of today s complex scientific applications now require a vast amount of computational power. General purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs) enable researchers in a variety of fields to benefit from the computational power of all the cores available inside graphics cards.

Understand the Benefits of Using GPUs for Many Scientific Applications

Designing Scientific Applications on GPUs shows you how to use GPUs for applications in diverse scientific fields, from physics and mathematics to computer science. The book explains the methods necessary for designing or porting your...

For a variety of reasons, the MATLAB(r)-Java interface was never fully documented. This is really quite unfortunate: Java is one of the most widely used programming languages, having many times the number of programmers and programming resources as MATLAB. Also unfortunate is the popular claim that while MATLAB is a fine programming platform for prototyping, it is not suitable for real-world, modern-looking applications. Undocumented Secrets of MATLAB(r)-Java Programming aims to correct this misconception.

This book shows how using Java can significantly improve MATLAB program...

This book provides a rigorous treatment of spectral analysis using Fourier-based techniques in the geosciences, specifically geodesy and geophysics that deal with global and regional spatial data. It emphasizes spatial -frequency analysis for data on the plane and sphere. It includes applications to stochastic processes on the plane and sphere, which are important for many estimation problems that are based on some kind of stochastic constraints in inverse theory. It also briefly outlines wavelet analysis, although unusual, it is included to illustrate the contrast to traditional spectral...
