Leads to a new understanding and a new way to talk about research design, by providing novel approaches to familiar aspects of research.Prsents science and research from an epistemological position th
These 16 contributions provide a field guide to robotics science today. Each takes up current work the problems addressed, and future directions in the areas of perception, planning, control, design,
A detailed study of the mechanical, physiological, and technical aspects of bicycle design, construction, and use, describing and picturing past, present, and experimental models.
Cleo and Evan have a secret. A collection of books so dangerous they are locked up tight. And only they can find the keys to release the magic inside! THE FUTURE IS UNDER ATTACK!A super-smart, super-evil computer network has taken over the world. And Cleo and Evan are the only ones who can take it down. But the network has sent robots, drones, and cyborgs to stop them. If they can find a way to pull the plug -- and find their next key -- Cleo and Evan just might survive this science fiction showdown!
Computer science and artificial intelligence in particular have no curriculum in research methods, as other sciences do. This book presents empirical methods for studying complex computer programs: ex
This interdisciplinary book brings together quantum information concepts from quantum physics, information theory, and computer science. It distinguishes between classical and quantum physics, introdu
The result of an interdisciplinary approach to specific problems, these relatively new fields combine academic and industrial approaches to computer science, biology, chemistry, medicine, mathematics
Computer science as an engineering discipline has been spectacularly successful. Yet it is also a philosophical enterprise in the way it represents the world and creates and manipulates models of real
"Programming with C++, Second Edition", is an update of the highly successful first edition - a bestseller in Schaum's computer science line - and reflects the new ISO standard for C++, rendering prev
This four-volume encyclopedia is aimed primarily at middle and high school students and is the first of projected similar treatments of other science fields (biology, math, computer sciences, animal s
One goal of modern computer science is to engineer computer programs that can act as autonomous, rational agents; software that can independently make good decisions about what actions to perform on o
A renewed interest in the study of vision has attracted scholars from such diverse fields as neuroscience, computer science, mathematics, physics and philosophy. At the same time, the development of i
This collection of original research papers assesses and summarizes the impact of types on logic programming. Type theory is a well-established branch of theoretical computer science that has played a
Large-scale optimization is becoming increasingly important for students and professionals in electrical and industrial engineering, computer science, management science and operations research, and a
Fourteen articles by different authors describe digital audio and computer music systems made possible by advances in digital signal processing theory, hardware design, and programming techniques. The
Intentions in Communication brings together major theorists from artificial intelligence and computer science, linguistics, philosophy, and psychology whose work develops the foundations for an accoun
The thirty original contributions in this book provide a working definition of "computational neuroscience" as the area in which problems lie simultaneously within computer science and neuroscience. T
"Advanced Research in VLSI" focuses on basic research, primarily involving interdisciplinary work in semiconductor physics, computer science, and electrical engineering that is giving rise to exciting
The use of computer-aided design (CAD) systems always involves the introduction of mathematical concepts. It is important, therefore, for any systems designer to have a good grasp of the mathematical
The Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded to Herbert Simon in 1978. At Carnegie-Mellon University he holds the title of Professor of Computer Science and Psychology. These two facts together delineate
