Having... Jul 30 2010     Computational social network analysis: trends, tools and research advances Abraham A., Hassanien A., Snsel V.,  Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, Dordrecht, Netherlands, 2009. 485 pp. Type: Book Designed for advanced students of intelligent social networks, this book consists of almost 500 pages and 18 chapters--an ideal length for a traditional one-semester course. The chapters are divided into three parts: “Social Network... Jul 30 2010     Semantic Web information management: a model-based perspective Virgilio R., Giunchiglia F., Tanca L.,  Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2009. 549 pp. Type: Book The semantic Web initiative was introduced by Tim Berners-Lee, the man widely regarded as the father of the World Wide Web (WWW). Over the years, the semantic Web has gathered momentum due to the initiatives taken by the WWW Consortium (W3C).... Jul 29 2010     Dynamic load management for MMOGs in distributed environments Jordan H., Prodan R., Nae V., Fahringer T.  CF 2010 (Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Computing Frontiers, Bertinoro, Italy,  May 17-19, 2010) 337-346, 2010. Type: Proceedings From the many challenges in allocating resources for massively multiplayer online games (MMOGs), Jordan et al. present a novel load management approach to dynamically adjust resources to current demand. The approach includes two layers, global... Jul 29 2010     Multicore processors and systems Keckler S., Olukotun K., Hofstee H.,  Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2009. 301 pp. Type: Book For the last 30 years, microprocessors based on a single processor core (uniprocessors) have become faster. However, limitations such as transistor scaling and thermal dissipation have begun to hobble Moore’s law--for example, the... Jul 27 2010     Logical foundations of proof complexity Cook S., Nguyen P.,  Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2010. 492 pp. Type: Book This authoritative volume on computational complexity of logical systems provides a sound background in logic for computer science and mathematics students. It covers a series of complexity classes, from the basic class whose components are... Jul 23 2010     Handbook of weighted automata Droste M., Kuich W., Vogler H.,  Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, 2009. 608 pp. Type: Book The first thing that struck me about this new handbook was its weight. If some of the more distant connections to the topic of weighted automata had been removed, it would have been much handier. This is not to say that the contributions are not... Jul 20 2010     Realistic image synthesis using photon mapping Jensen H.,  A. K. Peters, Ltd., Natick, MA, 2009. 193 pp. Type: Book Photon mapping is a widely used biased global illumination algorithm that can efficiently and robustly simulate various lighting effects seen in real life--such as diffuse inter-reflections, caustics, subsurface scattering, and light... Jul 20 2010     Useless arithmetic: why environmental scientists can’t predict the future Pilkey O., Pilkey-Jarvis L.,  Columbia University Press, New York, NY, 2009. 248 pp. Type: Book One of the greatest capabilities of the digital computer is its ability to execute computational models of complex systems. Applied to systems as diverse as the weather, economics, biology, and geology, these models have become an integral part... Jul 19 2010     Switching and finite automata theory Kohavi Z., Jha N.,  Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2009. 630 pp. Type: Book This timeless classic is back again with a new edition, 32 years after its last edition [1]. If you intend to study computer engineering, read this book first, then do the hundreds of excellent exercises, and then read the book again. Then,...
