Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Matrix-valued data sets ¿ so-called second order tensor fields ¿ have gained significant importance in scientific visualization and image processing due to recent developments such as diffusion tensor imaging. This book is the first edited volume that presents the state of the art in the visualization and processing of tensor fields. It contains some longer chapters dedicated to surveys and tutorials of specific topics, as well as a great deal of original work by leading experts that has not been published before. It serves as an overview for the inquiring scientist, as a basic foundation for developers and practitioners, and as as a textbook for specialized classes and seminars for graduate and doctoral students.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 500 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Since the dawn of computing, the quest for a better understanding of Nature has been a driving force for technological development. Groundbreaking achievements by great scientists have paved the way from the abacus to the supercomputing power of today. When trying to replicate Nature in the computer¿s silicon test tube, there is need for precise and computable process descriptions. The scienti c elds of Ma- ematics and Physics provide a powerful vehicle for such descriptions in terms of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). Formulated as such equations, physical laws can become subject to computational and analytical studies. In the computational setting, the equations can be discreti ed for ef cient solution on a computer, leading to valuable tools for simulation of natural and man-made processes. Numerical so- tion of PDE-based mathematical models has been an important research topic over centuries, and will remain so for centuries to come. In the context of computer-based simulations, the quality of the computed results is directly connected to the model¿s complexity and the number of data points used for the computations. Therefore, computational scientists tend to ll even the largest and most powerful computers they can get access to, either by increasing the si e of the data sets, or by introducing new model terms that make the simulations more realistic, or a combination of both. Today, many important simulation problems can not be solved by one single computer, but calls for parallel computing.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 500 pp. Englisch.…

Neuware -This monograph in 2 volumes contains a comprehensive and state-of-the art study of the basic concepts and principles of variational analysis and generalized differentiation in both finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional spaces and presents numerous applications to problems in optimization, equilibria, stability and sensitivity, control theory, economics, mechanics, etc. The first volume is devoted to the basic theory of variational analysis and generalized differentiations, while the second volume describes various applications. Both volumes include abundant bibliographies and extensive commentaries.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 604 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This volume attempts to give a comprehensive discussion of the theory of operator algebras (C\*-algebras and von Neumann algebras. ) The volume is intended to serve two purposes: to record the standard theory in the Encyc- pedia of Mathematics, and to serve as an introduction and standard reference for the specialized volumes in the series on current research topics in the subject. Since there are already numerous excellent treatises on various aspects of thesubject,howdoesthisvolumemakeasigni cantadditiontotheliterature, and how does it di er from the other books in the subject In short, why another book on operator algebras The answer lies partly in the rst paragraph above. More importantly, no other single reference covers all or even almost all of the material in this volume. I have tried to cover all of the main aspects of ¿standard¿ or ¿clas- cal¿ operator algebra theory; the goal has been to be, well, encyclopedic. Of course, in a subject as vast as this one, authors must make highly subjective judgments as to what to include and what to omit, as well as what level of detail to include, and I have been guided as much by my own interests and prejudices as by the needs of the authors of the more specialized volumes.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 544 pp. Englisch.…

Neuware -The central topics of this volume are the origins of the quasispecies concept, and the implications of quasispecies dynamics for viral populations. Continuous genetic variation and selection of virus subpopulations in the course of RNA virus replications are intimately related to viral disease mechanisms.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 424 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Over fteen years ago, because of the tremendous increase in the power and utility of computer simulations, The University of Georgia formed the rst institutional unit devoted to the use of simulations in research and teaching: The Center for Simulational Physics. As the international simulations c- munityexpandedfurther,wesensedaneedforameetingplaceforbothex- riencedsimulatorsandneophytestodiscussnewtechniquesandrecentresults in an environment which promoted lively discussion. As a consequence, the Center for Simulational Physics established an annual workshop on Recent DevelopmentsinComputerSimulationStudiesinCondensedMatterPhysics. This year¿s workshop was the seventeenth in this series, and the continued interest shown by the scienti c community demonstrates quite clearly the useful purpose that these meetings have served. The latest workshop was held at The University of Georgia, February 16¿20, 2004, and these proce- ings provide a ¿status report¿ on a number of important topics. This volume is published with the goal of timely dissemination of the material to a wider audience. We wish to o er a special thanks to IBM and to SGI for partial support of this year¿s workshop. This volume contains both invited papers and contributed presentations on problems in both classical and quantum condensed matter physics. We hope that each reader will bene t from specialized results as well as pro t from exposure to new algorithms, methods of analysis, and conceptual dev- opments.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 296 pp. Englisch.…
