In economics, most noncooperative game theory has focused on equilibrium in games, especially Nash equilibrium and its refinements.In The Theory of Learning in Games Drew Fudenberg and David Levine d
Concurrent Constraint Programming introduces a new and rich class of programming languages based on the notion of computing with partial information, or constraints, that synthesize and extend work on
Includes tutorials, lectures, and refereed papers on all aspects of logic programming, including theoretical foundations, constraints, concurrency and parallelism, deductive databases, language design
The Structure of Typed Programming Languages describes the fundamental syntactic andsemantic features of modern programming languages, carefully spelling out their impacts on languagedesign. Using cla
A completely revised edition, offering new design recipes for interactive programs and support for images as plain values, testing, event-driven programming, and even distributed programming.This intr
Within the field of logic programming there have been numerous attempts to transform grammars into logic programs. This book describes a complementary approach that views logic programs as grammars an
Binmore argues that game theory provides a systematic tool for investigating ethical matters.In Game Theory and the Social Contract, Ken Binmore argues that game theory provides a systematic tool for
Semantics of Programming Languages exposes the basic motivations and philosophy underlying the applications of semantic techniques in computer science. It introduces the mathematical theory of program
A comprehensive introduction to Support Vector Machines and related kernel methods. In the 1990s, a new type of learning algorithm was developed, based on results from statistical learning theory: t
Addressed to readers at different levels of programming expertise, The Practice of Prolog offers a departure from current books that focus on small programming examples requiring additional instructio
In recent years, object-oriented programming has emerged as the dominant computer programming style, and object-oriented languages such as C++ and Java enjoy wide use in academia and industry. This te

A new edition of the essential text and professional reference, with substantial newmaterial on such topics as vEB trees, multithreaded algorithms, dynamic programming, and edge-baseflow.
In the many studies of games and young people's use of them, little has been written about an overall "ecology" of gaming, game design and play—mapping the ways that all the various e
Game theory has come to dominate industrial organization economics, but business strategists continue to debate its usefulness. So far, empirical work on the application of game theory to business str
Designed for undergraduates, An Introduction to High-Performance Scientific Computing assumes a basic knowledge of numerical computation and proficiency in Fortran or C programming and can be used in
The Formal Semantics of Programming Languages provides the basic mathematicaltechniques necessary for those who are beginning a study of the semantics and logics of programminglanguages. These techniq
The research reported in this book fulfills both a general and a specific purpose. Linear programming models are developed in order to improve the process of planning for economic development, both sh
For centuries, both mathematical and military thinkers have used game-like scenariosto test their visions of mastering a complex world through symbolic operations. By the end of WorldWar I, mathematic
The latest scientific findings indicate that emotions play an essential role in decision making, perception, learning, and more—that is, they influence the very mechanisms of rational thinking.
Koichi Hamada has made seminal contributions to the study of economic interdependence and was one of the key originators of the game-theoretic approach to the topic. In this book, he applies current m
Foreword by Bjarne Stroustrup Software is generally acknowledged to be the single greatest obstacle preventing mainstream adoption of massively-parallel computing. While sequential applications are ro

Conventional wisdom about young people's use of digital technology often equates generational identity with technology identity: today's teens seem constantly plugged in to video games, social network
This book brings together the most important contributions to its development to date, focusing in particular on how advances in type systems and semantic models can contribute to new language designs
At the heart of medical history is a deep enigma.The true structure and workings ofthe human body are, we casually assume, everywhere the same, a universal reality. But then we lookinto the past, and
Recent progress in VLSI provides massive parallelism but general purpose parallel computers remain elusive due to limited communications performance. This book proposes a new high level approach to pr
