This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13th Symposium on the Interface continued this series after a one year pause. The objective of these symposia is to provide a forum for the interchange of ideas of common concern to computer scientists and statisticians. The sessions of the 13th Symposium were held in the Pittsburgh Hilton Hotel, Gateway Center, Pittsburgh. Following established custom the 13th Symposium had organized workshops on various topics of interest to participants. The workshop format allowed the invited speakers to present their material variously as formal talks, tutorial sessions and open discussion. The Symposium schedule was also the customary one. Registration opened in late afternoon of March 11, 1981 and continued during the opening mixer held that evening: The formal opening of the Symposium was on the morning of March 12. The opening remarks were followed by Bradley Efron's address "Statistical Theory and the Computer." The rest of the daily schedule was three concurrent workshops in the morning and three in the afternoon with contributed poster sessions during the noon break. Additionally there were several commercial displays and guided tours of Carnegie-Mellon University's Computer Center, Computer Science research facilities, and Robotics Institute.

Book The Design of Dynamic Data Structures

Download or read book The Design of Dynamic Data Structures written by Mark H. Overmars and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1983 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In numerous computer applications there is a need of storing large sets of objects in such a way that some questions about those objects can be answered efficiently. Data structures that store such sets of objects can be either static (built for a fixed set of objects) or dynamic (insertions of new objects and deletions of existing objects can be performed). Especially for more complex searching problems as they arise in such fields as computational geometry, database design and computer graphics, only static data structures are available. This book aims at remedying this lack of flexibility by providing a number of general techniques for turning static data structures for searching problems into dynamic structures. Although the approach is basically theoretical, the techniques offered are often practically applicable. The book is written in such a way that it is readable for those who have some elementary knowledge of data structures and algorithms. Although this monograph was first published in 1983, it is still unique as a general treatment of methods for constructing dynamic data structures.

Book Computational Morphology

Download or read book Computational Morphology written by G.T. Toussaint and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational Geometry is a new discipline of computer science that deals with the design and analysis of algorithms for solving geometric problems. There are many areas of study in different disciplines which, while being of a geometric nature, have as their main component the extraction of a description of the shape or form of the input data. This notion is more imprecise and subjective than pure geometry. Such fields include cluster analysis in statistics, computer vision and pattern recognition, and the measurement of form and form-change in such areas as stereology and developmental biology.This volume is concerned with a new approach to the study of shape and form in these areas. Computational morphology is thus concerned with the treatment of morphology from the computational geometry point of view. This point of view is more formal, elegant, procedure-oriented, and clear than many previous approaches to the problem and often yields algorithms that are easier to program and have lower complexity.

Book Machine Intelligence and Pattern Recognition

Download or read book Machine Intelligence and Pattern Recognition written by Godfried T. Toussaint and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Machine Intelligence and Pattern Recognition, Volume 2: Computational Geometry focuses on the operations, processes, methodologies, and approaches involved in computational geometry, including algorithms, polygons, convex hulls, and bucketing techniques. The selection first ponders on optimal parallel algorithms for selection, sorting, and computing convex hulls, simple on-line algorithms for convex polygons, and geometric algorithms that use the furthest-point Voronoi diagram. Discussions focus on algorithms that use the furthest-point Voronoi diagram, intersection of a convex polygon and a halfplane, point insertion, convex hulls and polygons and their representations, and parallel algorithm for selection and computing convex hulls. The text then examines optimal convex decompositions, expected time analysis of algorithms in computational geometry, and practical use of bucketing techniques in computational geometry. The book takes a look at minimum decompositions of polygonal objects, framework for computational morphology, display of visible edges of a set of convex polygons, and implementation study of two algorithms for the minimum spanning circle problem. Topics include rolling algorithm, shape of point sets, and decomposition of rectilinear and simple polygons and polygons with holes. The selection is a valuable source of data for researchers interested in computational geometry.

Book Storage Systems

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alexander Thomasian
  • Publisher : Academic Press
  • Release : 2021-10-13
  • ISBN : 0323908098
  • Pages : 748 pages

Download or read book Storage Systems written by Alexander Thomasian and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2021-10-13 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Storage Systems: Organization, Performance, Coding, Reliability and Their Data Processing was motivated by the 1988 Redundant Array of Inexpensive/Independent Disks proposal to replace large form factor mainframe disks with an array of commodity disks. Disk loads are balanced by striping data into strips—with one strip per disk— and storage reliability is enhanced via replication or erasure coding, which at best dedicates k strips per stripe to tolerate k disk failures. Flash memories have resulted in a paradigm shift with Solid State Drives (SSDs) replacing Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) for high performance applications. RAID and Flash have resulted in the emergence of new storage companies, namely EMC, NetApp, SanDisk, and Purestorage, and a multibillion-dollar storage market. Key new conferences and publications are reviewed in this book.The goal of the book is to expose students, researchers, and IT professionals to the more important developments in storage systems, while covering the evolution of storage technologies, traditional and novel databases, and novel sources of data. We describe several prototypes: FAWN at CMU, RAMCloud at Stanford, and Lightstore at MIT; Oracle's Exadata, AWS' Aurora, Alibaba's PolarDB, Fungible Data Center; and author's paper designs for cloud storage, namely heterogeneous disk arrays and hierarchical RAID. - Surveys storage technologies and lists sources of data: measurements, text, audio, images, and video - Familiarizes with paradigms to improve performance: caching, prefetching, log-structured file systems, and merge-trees (LSMs) - Describes RAID organizations and analyzes their performance and reliability - Conserves storage via data compression, deduplication, compaction, and secures data via encryption - Specifies implications of storage technologies on performance and power consumption - Exemplifies database parallelism for big data, analytics, deep learning via multicore CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and ASICs, e.g., Google's Tensor Processing Units
