Neuware -'Dass ein Einführungstext zur Linearen Algebra bei der ständig wachsenden Flut von Lehrbüchern zu diesem weitgehend standardisierten Stoff überhaupt noch Besonderheiten bieten kann, ist gewiss bemerkenswert. . Es wird all das Mehr wiedergegeben, das eine gute Vorlesung gegenüber einem Lehrbuch im üblichen Stil (Definition - Satz - Beweis - Beispiel) auszeichnet. Ein anderes charakteristisches Merkmal des Buches besteht in der Unterteilung in einen Kerntext, der die wichtigsten Sätze der Theorie enthält, und in Ergänzungen für Mathematiker und für Physiker. Am Ende jedes Paragraphen werden dem Erstsemesterstudenten neben Übungsmaterial auch einfache Testfragen angeboten, an denen er sein Verständnis erproben kann.'

Tartar relies on H-measures, a tool created for homogenization, to explain some of the weaknesses in the theory. These include looking at the subject from the point of view of quantum mechanics. Here, there are no 'particles', so the Boltzmann equation and the second principle, can't apply. 312 pp. Englisch.

Papers submitted to AOIS show an increase in quality and maturity as agent technology is being increasingly seen as a viable alternative for software and systems development. In AOIS, we focus on the application of agent technology in information systems development and explore the potential for facilitating the increased usage of agent technology in the creation of information systems in the widest sense. This year's workshops were held in conjunction with two major, international computing research conferences: the first, in May 2006, was affiliated with the AAMAS conference in Hakadote, Japan and chaired by Garcia, Ghose and Kolp. The second was held in conjunction with the international CAiSE conference held in Luxembourg (June 2006) and chaired by Bresciani, Henderson-Sellers and Mouratidis. (Details of all preceding workshops are to be found at aois. org. ) The best papers from both these meetings were identified and authors invited to revise and extend their papers in light of the reviewers' comments and feedback at the workshop. Following submission to this compendium volume, another round of reviews was undertaken resulting in what you can read here. These re-reviews were undertaken by three members of the Programme Committee - we wish to thank both the authors for undertaking the necessary revisions and the reviewers for this extra call on their precious time. 244 pp. Englisch.

The proceedings of these previous WAOA workshops have appeared as LNCS volumes 2909, 3351, 3879 and 4368, respectively. Topics of interest for WAOA 2007 were: algorithmic game theory, appro- mation classes, coloring and partitioning, competitive analysis, computational nance, cuts and connectivity, geometric problems, inapproximability results, mechanism design, network design, packing and covering, paradigms for design and analysis of approximation and online algorithms, randomization techniques, real-world applications, and scheduling problems. In response to the call for - pers, we received 56 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least three referees, and the vast majority by at least four referees. The submissions were mainly judged on originality, technical quality, and relevance to the topics of the conference. Based on the reviews, the Program Committee selected 22 papers.

Horn published a book entitled Robot Vision, which actually discussed a wider eld of subjects, basically addressing the eld of computer vision, but introducing 'robot vision' as a technical term. Since then, the - teraction between computer vision and research on mobile systems (often called 'robots', e.g., in an industrial context, but also including vehicles, such as cars, wheelchairs, tower cranes, and so forth) established a diverse area of research, today known as robot vision. Robot vision (or, more general, robotics) is a fast-growing discipline, already taught as a dedicated teaching program at university level. The term 'robot vision' addresses any autonomous behavior of a technical system supported by visual sensoric information. While robot vision focusses on the vision process, visual robotics is more directed toward control and automatization. In practice, however, both elds strongly interact. Robot Vision 2008 was the second international workshop, counting a 2001 workshop with identical name as the rst in this series. Both workshops were organized in close cooperation between researchers from New Zealand and Germany, and took place at The University of Auckland, New Zealand. Participants of the 2008 workshop came from Europe, USA, South America, the Middle East, the Far East, Australia, and of course from New Zealand. 484 pp. Englisch.

The purpose of VMCAI is to provide a forum for researchers from three communities Veri cation, Model Checking, and - stractInterpretation thatwill facilitate interaction,cross-fertilization,andthe advance of hybridmethods that combine the three areas.With the growingneed for formal tools to reason about complex, in nite-state, and embedded systems, such hybrid methods are bound to be of great importance. Topics covered by VMCAI include program veri cation, program certi - tion, model checking, debugging techniques, abstract interpretation, abstract domains, static analysis, type systems, deductive methods, and optimization. VMCAI 2008 was the 9th VMCAI meeting. Previous meetings were held in Port Je erson 1997, Pisa 1998, Venice 2002, New York 2003, Venice 2004, Paris 2005, Charleston 2006, and Nice 2007. The program committee selected 21 papers out of over 60 on the basis of at least three reviews. The principal criteria were relevance and quality. The program of VMCAI 2008 included, in addition to the research papers, three invited talks, by Radhia Cousot, Maurice Herlihy and Neil Jones, and three tutorials, by Orna Kupferman, Jens Palsberg, and Marco Pistoia. We would like to thank the ProgramCommittee members and the reviewers, without whose dedicated e ort the conference would not have been possible. Our thanks also to the Steering Committee members for their helpful advice. 340 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Biomolecular/DNA computing is now well established as an interdisciplinary field where chemistry, computer science, molecular biology, physics, and mathematics come together with the common purpose of fundamental scientific understanding of biology and chemistry and its applications. This international meeting has been the premier forum where scientists with different backgrounds and a common focus meet to present their latest results and entertain visions of the future. In this tradition, about 100 participants converged in Memphis, Tennessee to hold the 13th International Meeting on DNA Computing during June 4-8, 2007, under the auspices of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation and Engineering (ISNSCE) and The University of Memphis. The call for papers encouraged submissions of original, recent, and promising experimental and theoretical results in the field. The Call for Papers elicited some 62 submissions, almost perfectly balanced among the major theoretical and experimental categories. It is evidence of how well the interdisciplinary nature of the conference has truly matured that the major criterion of quality, agreed upon in advance by the Program Committee (PC), produced a nearly balanced program as well across the two major categories, full papers and talks with an abstract only. The program with the greatest perceived impact consisted of 24 papers for plenary oral talks; in addition, 15 full-paper posters and 10 poster abstracts were accepted, of which 5 authors were invited to give five short demos in a new submission category this year. The conference program retained the structure now customary for this meeting. 308 pp. Englisch.

Leaving research approaches aside, the analysis of ICT in health care shows an evo- tion from the initial interest in representing and storing health care data (i. e. , electronic health care records) to the current interest of having remote access to electronic health care systems, as for example HL7 initiatives or telemedicine. This sometimes imperceptible evolution can be interpreted as a new step of the progress path of health care informatics, whose next emerging milestone is the convergenceof current solutions with formal methods for health care kno- edge management. In this sense, K4CARE is a European project aiming at contributing to this progress path. It is centered on the idea that health care knowledge rep- sented in a formal waymay favor the treatment of home care patients in modern societies. The project highlights several aspects that are considered relevant to the evolution of medical informatics: health care knowledge production, health care knowledge integration, update, and adaptation, and health care intelligent systems. 176 pp. Englisch.

These proceedings aim to demonstrate the use of parallel and distributed processing concepts in di erent application elds, and attempt to spark interest in novel research directions to advance the embracing model of high-performance computing research in general. The objective of these workshops is to speci cally address researchers c- ing from university, industry and governmental research organizations and application-oriented companies, in order to close the gap between purely s- enti c research and the applicability of the research ideas to real-life problems. Euro-Par is an annual series of international conferences dedicated to the promotionandadvancementofallaspectsofparallelanddistributedcomputing. The 2007 event was the 13th issue of the conference. Euro-Par has for a long time been eager to attract colocated events sharing the same goal of promoting the development of parallel and distributed computing, both as an industrial technique and an academic discipline, extending the frontier of both the state of the art and the state of the practice. Since 2006, Euro-Par o ers researchersthe chance to colocate advanced technical workshops back-to-back with the main conference. This is for a mutual bene t: the workshops can take advantage of all technical and social facilities which are set up for the conference, so that the organizational tasks are kept to a minimal level; the conference can rely on workshopstoexperimentwithspeci careasofresearchwhicharenotyetmature enough, or too speci c, to lead to an o cial, full- edged topic at the conference. 256 pp. Englisch.

As in the previous editions of the MLMI series, the 26 chapters of this book cover a large area of topics, from multimodal processing and human computer interaction to video, audio, speech and language processing. The application of machine learning techniques to problems arising in these elds and the design and analysis of software s- portingmultimodalhuman humanandhuman computerinteractionarethetwo overarching themes of this post-workshop book. The MLMI 2007 workshop featured 18 oral presentations two invited talks, 14 regular talks and two special session talks and 42 poster presentations. The participants were not only related to the sponsoring projects, AMI/AMIDA and IM2 , but also to other largeresearchprojects onmultimodalprocessingand multimedia browsing,such as CALO and CHIL. Local universities were well represented, as well as other European, US and Japanese universities, research institutions and private c- panies, from a dozen countries overall. 324 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Today s mobile robot perception is insu cient for acting goal-directedly in - constrained, dynamic everyday environments like a home, a factory, or a city. Subject to restrictions in bandwidth, computer power, and computation time, a robot has to react to a wealth of dynamically changing stimuli in such - vironments, requiring rapid, selective attention to decisive, action-relevant - formation of high current utility. Robust and general engineering methods for e ectively and e ciently coupling perception, action, and reasoning are unava- able. Interesting performance, if any, is currently only achieved by sophisticated robot programming exploiting domain features and specialties, which leaves - dinary users no chance of changing how the robot acts. The latter facts are high barriers for introducing, for example, service robots into human living or work environments. In order to overcome these barriers, additonal R&D e orts are required. The European Commission is undert- ing a determined e ort to fund related basic, inter-disciplinary research in a line of Strategic Objectives, including the Cognitive Systems calls in their 6th Framework Programme (FP6, [1]), and continuing in the 7th Framework P- gramme.OneofthefundedCognitiveSystemsprojectsisMACS( multi-sensory autonomous cognitive systems interacting with dynamic environments for p- ceiving and using a ordances ). 224 pp. Englisch.

The Workshop Reader which contains the reports from the workshops has beenasubstantialpartoftheECOOPconferenceformorethan10years.During the pre-conference phase the workshop organizers are invited to author a report about their workshops where they have the opportunity to describe the state of the art,the discussionsandthe trends inthe elds oftheirworkshop.Inaddition some of the organizational aspects may be discussed. This volume collects 19 reports from high-quality workshops whose topics were related to selected aspects in the eld of object-oriented programming and technology. Following the example of previous workshop readers we introduced some notions in order to establish thematic clusters. These notions are (1) P- gramming Languages, (2) Aspects, (3) Formal Techniques, Roles, Components, (4) Software Engineering, and (5) Applications. Three months after the conference we are now able to present the reports which describe the state of the art, the discussions and the relevant trends in the research elds addressed by the workshops. In sum, each of these reports thus contributes to a panoptic overview of the current tendencies in the lively eld of object-oriented programming and technology. Readers from academia and industry who want to be informed about the current developments in this research area thus can highly pro t from this volume. 216 pp. Englisch.

It introduces and explains classical and modern mathematical procedures as applied to the real problems confronting engineers and geoscientists. Written in a manner that is understandable for students across the breadth of their studies, it lays out the foundations for mastering difficult and sometimes confusing mathematical methods. Arithmetic examples and figures fully support this approach, while all important mathematical techniques are detailed. Derived from the author's long experience teaching courses in applied mathematics, it is based on the lectures, exercises and lessons she has used in her classes. 188 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a mathematical theory of concepts and c- ceptualhierarchyleadingtomethodsforconceptuallyanalyzingdataandkno- edge. The theoryitselfstronglyreliesonorderandlatticetheory,whichhasbeen studied by mathematicians over decades. FCA proved itself highly relevant in several applications from the beginning, and, over the last years, the range of applicationshaskeptgrowing. The mainreasonfor this comesfromthe fact that our modern society has turned into an 'information' society. After years and years of using computers, companies realized they had stored gigantic amounts of data. Then, they realized that this data, just rough information for them, might become a real treasure if turned into knowledge. FCA is particularly well suited for this purpose. From relational data, FCA can extract implications, - pendencies, concepts and hierarchies of concepts, and thus capture part of the knowledge hidden in the data. The ICFCA conference series gathers researchers from all over the world, being the main forum to present new results in FCA and related elds. These results range from theoretical novelties to advances in FCA-related algorithmic issues, as well as application domains of FCA. ICFCA 2008 was in the same vein as its predecessors: high-quality papers and presentations, the place of real debate and exchange of ideas. ICFCA 2008 contributed to strengthening the links between theory and applications. The high quality of the presentations was the result of the remarkable work of the authors and the reviewers. We wish to thank the reviewers for all their valuable comments, which helped the authors to improve their presentations. 340 pp. Englisch.
