Pengantar Layanan Berbasis Lokasi (LBS); Beberapa tahun terakhir telah menyaksikan kemajuan signifikan dalam Layanan Berbasis Lokasi (LBS), didorong oleh evolusi berkelanjutan perangkat seluler dan teknologi komunikasi. Layanan ini telah mendapatkan popularitas tidak hanya di lingkungan luar kota tetapi juga di lingkungan dalam ruangan seperti pusat perbelanjaan dan museum. Aplikasi LBS mencaku…
Buku ini menyajikan cuplikan kegiatan terkini dalam matematika industri di Eropa dan akan sangat relevan bagi siapa pun yang tertarik dengan aplikasi matematika terbaru untuk masalah industri. Buku ini memuat makalah-makalah yang merupakan hasil kontribusi pada konferensi ECMI ke-18, European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry. Konferensi dua tahunan ini telah memantapkan dirinya sebagai ac…
Termotivasi oleh kebutuhan komputasi industri yang mendesak, pendekatan simulasi turbulensi sesuai permintaan yang secara bijaksana menggabungkan keunggulan Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) dan Large Eddy Simulation (LES), yang secara luas diklasifikasikan sebagai metode hibrida RANS-LES, telah mengalami perkembangan yang pesat selama dekade terakhir. Terlepas dari upaya terbaik para pene…
Dengan pertumbuhan populasi dunia dan upaya untuk meningkatkan standar hidup manusia, energi telah menjadi salah satu tantangan global terbesar. Ketergantungan yang saat ini dominan terhadap bahan bakar fosil tidak hanya mempercepat penipisan sumber daya alam, tetapi juga menyebabkan dampak lingkungan dan iklim yang parah. Di antara semua sumber energi terbarukan, matahari adalah sumber energi …
"A Bradford book."In recent years there has been increasing interest and, subsequently, active research in neuropeptides. These neuroactive molecules coordinate, integrate, and regulate physiological processes in all organisms, throughout all phases of development. Acting as neurohormones, neurotransmitters, and/or neuromodulators, they maintain physiological homeostasis and influence important…
"A Bradford book."Walter applies the methodology of neurophilosophy to one of philosophy's central challenges, the notion of free will. Neurophilosophical conclusions are based on, and consistent with, scientific knowledge about the brain and its functioning.Neuroscientists routinely investigate such classical philosophical topics as consciousness, thought, language, meaning, aesthetics, and de…
"A Bradford book."An overview of neurotechnology, the engineering of robots based on animals and animal behavior.The goal of neurotechnology is to confer the performance advantages of animal systems on robotic machines. Biomimetic robots differ from traditional robots in that they are agile, relatively cheap, and able to deal with real-world environments. The engineering of these robots require…
Five chapters in the book's first part, "Some Elementary Neuroscience," sketch the history of the science of nervous systems and provide a general introduction to neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and neuropsychology. In the second part, "Recent Developments in the Philosophy of Science," chapters place the mind-body problem within the wider context of the philosophy of science. Drawing on recent …
Essays by internationally prominent economists examine long run cross-country economic trends from the perspective of New Comparative Economic History, an approach pioneered by Harvard economist Jeffrey G. Williamson.OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
Neural networks usually work adequately on small problems but can run into trouble when they are scaled up to problems involving large amounts of input data. Circuit Complexity and Neural Networks addresses the important question of how well neural networks scale - that is, how fast the computation time and number of neurons grow as the problem size increases. It surveys recent research in circ…
