Kayvan Najarian

Earl F. Burkholder

University of North Carolina, Charlotte, USA

New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, USA

Emphasizing computational methods, Systems Biology and Bioinformatics provides an introduction to systems biology and its impact on biology and medicine. The book reviews the basic principles of molecular and cell biology using a system-oriented approach, with a brief description of the high-throughput biological experiments that produce databases. The methods presented in the text include techniques to discover genes, perform nucleotide and amino acid sequence matching, and estimate static gene dynamic pathways. The book also explains how to use system-oriented models to predict the behavior of biological systems for important applications such as rational drug design.

This book offers a new model for handling digital spatial data, the global spatial data model or GSDM. This groundbreaking spatial model incorporates both a functional model and a stochastic model to connect the physical world to the ECEF rectangular system. Combining horizontal and vertical data into a single, three-dimensional database, this authoritative monograph provides a logical development of theoretical concepts and practical tools that can be used to handle spatial data more efficiently. The book clearly describes procedures that can be used to handle both ECEF and flat-Earth rectangular components in the context of a rigorous global environment.

National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan

Quantum Error Correction and Fault Tolerant Quantum Computing Frank Gaitan

Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, USA

Programming ArcObjects with VBA: A Task-Oriented Approach, Second Edition adds macros and explanations for the new Geoprocessing object introduced in ArcGIS 9.x. Instead of treating this new feature in separate chapters, the author incorporates Geoprocessing code into the existing chapters. The code appears conveniently in boxes that let readers easily compare sample macros. The companion CD-ROM contains 95 complete ArcObjects macros and 33 Geoprocessing macros, along with datasets to execute the code. Each program begins with a short usage description and a list of key properties and methods, followed by the listing and explanation of the code itself.

Although it was once widely believed that quantum computation would never become a reality, the discovery of quantum error correction nearly ten years ago led to explosive development and research within the field. Quantum Error Correction and Fault Tolerant Quantum Computing provides a careful explanation of how quantum error correction is possible and how quantum stabilizer codes are constructed. With examples throughout the text, this book demonstrates how fault-tolerant quantum operations can be implemented on encoded quantum information and presents the accuracy threshold theorem for particular noise models. Featuring extensive references, it also includes homework problems in each chapter.

Nikolay Moldovyan and Alexander Moldovyan, holders of several dozen patents in encryption technology, provide the background and detail the applications needed to investigate new properties of PNs especially relevant to the improvement of modern wireless systems. They propose a universal architecture involving controlled bit permutation instruction that permits the performance of both datadriven permutations and an arbitrary prescribed fixed permutation in a single cycle. Because of its efficient use of current hardware, the embedding of this architecture is a highly attractive option for CPU manufacturers. This book details all the information pertinent to this technology.

The Handbook of Applied Cryptography serves as a valuable reference for novices as well as experts. It provides a multifunctional treatment that introduces the more practical aspects of both conventional and public-key cryptography, and offers a valuable source of techniques and algorithms for serious practitioners.

Despite continued interest in Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) there is no up-to-date book in the area and none which comprehensively documents the use of these methods in real world applications. This is a critical shortcoming as more cognitive engineers and human factors professionals seek to use CWA methods in their own work. This book demonstrates how these often complicated methods can be applied in complex, real-world design contexts, subject to constraints of cost, time, and information. It shows how, when, and where CWA techniques can be integrated into the systems engineering design process and provides concrete evidence for the value that the CWA approach provides. Catalog no.

Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands

Now that text-based search engines have begun to give way to contentand context-aware engines, advanced network infrastructures are starting to emerge. These infrastructures are capable of end-to-end ubiquitous transmission of multimedia content to any device on any network. This book is a collection of expanded papers presented at the 2007 2nd International Workshop on Semantic Media Adaptation and Personalization. It explores recent developments in the field of semantic media adaptation and personalization. Topics discussed include the challenges of collaborative content modeling, video adaptation, information retrieval techniques for semantic media adaptation, and podcasting.

Agreement on the syntax and formats of spatial data and developing systems to handle these is the first step towards the spatial information infrastructure (SII). Although a set of standards has already been established, a wealth of other technical and non-technical aspects must still be addressed. Creating Spatial Information Infrastructures covers these issues in depth. This book reflects recent major initiatives to create an SII, including the European INSPIRE initiative and the US DHS Geospatial Data Model. International research contributors present up-to-date information on current research and standardization efforts for SII. This text also discusses semantic web technologies.

Focusing on algorithms and applications, the text presents three distinct sets of problems for each section: standard questions that test understanding of the material, structured programming exercises using code and data from the Internet, and suggested further investigations, often involving some basic programming. The book covers such fundamental topics as neuronal modeling, perceptron, multi-layer perceptron, classification, regression, decision trees, the naïve Bayes’ classifier, unsupervised learning, the self-organizing map, and genetic algorithms.

Multiple agent systems (MAS) have been used extensively as a tool for designing simulation problems; while simulation has often been used for the design of multiple agent studies. This book focuses on the intersection of MAS and simulation, emphasizing application domains. The book starts with a historical overview from different perspectives. A second part discusses the use of simulation in MAS and among a wealth of topics, explains simulation support for agent decision making. A third section zooms in on the specifics of MAS for simulation and a last section presents a number of representative platforms and tools for MAS and simulation.

The Business Value of IT

Managing Risks, Optimizing Performance, and Measuring Results Michael D. S. Harris, David Herron, and Stasia Iwanicki The David Consulting Group, Paoli, Pennsylvania, USA

Unlike other books in this area, this resource not only shows readers what they can do, but shows them how to do it. An organizing, visual communication, team-building, commitment-gaining, and project planning tool, the work breakdown structure (WBS) helps project managers communicate with their teams, clients, and management. This book provides an eight-step process that facilitates the development of the WBS. The process defines the project through its deliverables and validates the initial target date by critical path analysis. The result is a clear visualization of the project’s objectives, deliverables, activities, and schedule.

The Business Value of IT: Managing Risks, Optimizing Performance, and Measuring Results examines how to measure IT performance, how to put a dollar value on IT, and how to justify value of an entire IT program. It places sharp technical focus on the techniques, methods, and processes used to identify and to assess risks. Based on the authors’ extensive experience in the field, this comprehensive text discusses IT from the perspective of its contribution to business, the necessity of governance, the importance of measuring performance, and changes that must be made in order to effectively measure IT.

Adaptation and Cross Layer Design in Wireless Networks Edited by

Universidad de Guadalajara, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico

Mohamed Ibnkahla

A reference for circuit design engineers and microwave engineers, this book covers the subject in a style that is useful to both. It uses a simple 2-D electromagnetic simulation procedure to provide basic knowledge and practical insight into quotidian problems of microstrip passive circuits applied to microwave systems and digital technologies. The author’s approach follows a natural route starting from analysis of the test circuits, continuing with simulation and finishing with the measurement. At the end of the book some typical problems of signal integrity such as ringing and overshooting are stated and solved by using knowledge acquired though the book.

Adaptation and Cross Layer Design in Wireless Networks is devoted to adaptation in the data link, network, and application layers. It presents the latest adaptation techniques and methodologies, including cross-layer adaptation, joint signal processing, coding and networking, selfishness in mobile ad hoc networks, cooperative and opportunistic protocols, adaptation techniques for multimedia support, self–organizing routing, and tunable security services.

Recent advances in web and wireless technologies have resulted in a need for more efficient scheduling and data transmission strategies. While both push and pull strategies have value, it is becoming clear that any optimal solution requires a hybrid method. This work takes a comparative and practical approach that incorporates much of the authors’ original research. They discuss basic push and pull strategies and examine the challenges posed by customer requests and behavior, before defining ideal hybrid approaches. Exceptionally thorough, this original work also demonstrates the value of separating clients by class and looks at a new solution for multi-channel broadcast problems.

Fundamentals of DSL Technology begins with an introductory three-chapter examination of DSL copper transmission channels, reviewing the basic telephone environment, the physical-layer twisted pair, and the noise environment in the twisted pair channel. The book then explores line codes – laying the foundation for later chapters about other aspects of DSL design – and discusses the basic objectives of DSL service, comparing DSL to other broadband delivery methods. The book concludes with a description of other basic aspects of DSL transmission, covering topics such as trellis codes, Reed-Solomon codes and interleaving, turbo and LDPC codes, basic equalization theory, synchronization, and more.

US Dept. of Housing & Urban Development, Washington, D.C., USA

Critical Infrastructure (CI) is a little understood topic, which seems to generate more fear than rational discussion. CIs are considered fundamental to the functioning of modern economies. Moving beyond definitions, this volume looks at the “iron triangle” within CI: power, telecom, and finance. It introduces the concept of CIs as industrial and enterprise “risk conductors,” highlighting the fact that a CI failure can propagate an impact throughout an enterprise. This text rethinks the concept of a CI according to contemporary factors, providing guidance for mitigating risk within the framework of national economies.

Few organizations have not felt the impact of government regulation in the area of information systems security. In light of new legislation such as the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), there is an increased need to measure the ability of government organizations and companies subject to these standards to protect information. This book provides practical guidelines for addressing FISMA compliance. It offers workable solutions for establishing and operating a security compliance program, including how to gain management support, design and staff a compliance capability, build organizational relationships, and integrate compliance into the system development life cycle.

Information Security Policies and Procedures

A Practitioner’s Reference, Second Edition Thomas R. Peltier

Thomas R. Peltier Associates, LLC, Wyandotte, Michigan, USA

This book illustrates how policies and procedures support the efficient running of an organization. It points out how security documents and standards are key elements in the business process, but should never be undertaken to satisfy a perceived audit or security requirement. Instead, policies, standards, and procedures should exist only to support business objectives or mission requirements; they are elements that aid in the execution of management policies. The author details how security policies support management directions, and emphasizes how information security must be integrated into all business processes. The book examines Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 policies. Catalog no. AU1958, ISBN: 978-0-8493-1958-7 2004, 6-1/8 x 9-1/4, 408 pp. Suggested Price: $93.95 / £51.99
