Download or read book Multigrid Methods III written by HACKBUSCH and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-11-22 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These proceedings contain a selection of papers presented at the Third European Conference on Multigrid Methods which was held in Bonn on October 1-4, 1990. Following conferences in 1981 and 1985, a platform for the presentation of new Multigrid results was provided for a third time. Multigrid methods no longer have problems being accepted by numerical analysts and users of numerical methods; on the contrary, they have been further developed in such a successful way that they have penetrated a variety of new fields of application. The high number of 154 participants from 18 countries and 76 presented papers show the need to continue the series of the European Multigrid Conferences. The papers of this volume give a survey on the current Multigrid situation; in particular, they correspond to those fields where new developments can be observed. For example, se veral papers study the appropriate treatment of time dependent problems. Improvements can also be noticed in the Multigrid approach for semiconductor equations. The field of parallel Multigrid variants, having been started at the second European Multigrid Conference, is now at the centre of interest.
Download or read book Recent Advances in Qualitative Physics written by Boi Faltings and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These twenty-eight contributions report advances in one of the most active research areas in artificial intellgence. Qualitative modeling techniques are an essential part of building second generation knowledge-based systems. This book provides a timely overview of the field while also giving some indications about applications that appear to be feasible now or in the near future. Chapters are organized into sections covering modeling and simulation, ontologies, computational issues, and qualitative analysis. Modeling a physical system in order to simulate it or solve particular problems regarding the system is an important motivation of qualitative physics, involving formal procedures and concepts. The chapters in the section on modeling address the problem of how to set up and structure qualitative models, particularly for use in simulation. Ontology, or the science of being, is the basis for all modeling. Accordingly, chapters on ontologies discuss problems fundamental for finding representational formalism and inference mechanisms appropriate for different aspects of reasoning about physical systems. Computational issues arising from attempts to turn qualitative theories into practical software are then taken up. In addition to simulation and modeling, qualitative physics can be used to solve particular problems dealing with physical systems, and the concluding chapters present techniques for tasks ranging from the analysis of behavior to conceptual design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dye Lasers: 25 years, the pioneers and leading experts in the field of dye lasers present the current status and bright future perspectives of dye lasers and their applications in physics and chemistry. Particular topics covered include: new sources of ultrashort pulses, novel aspects of resonator design and imaging for femtosecond lasers, amplification schemes to terawatt intensity regimes, optics and high-resolution spectroscopy of atoms and molecules, and electro-optic and plasma physics applications of ultrashort and ultra-intense laser pulses. Since its invention in 1966, the dye laser has revolutionized many fields of science and technology. Questions of fundamental interest in physics and chemistry can now be answered: it is possible to test fundamental quantum physics in single-atom experiments and regioselective photochemistry in complexes can be monitored directlyusing dye-laser diagnostic methods. In this book the latest results (and most recent references) are presented for new sources of ultrashort pulses from the visible to the VUV, together with experimental details of ultrahigh-resolution spectroscopy of atoms and molecules, laser diagnostics of the dynamics of elementary chemical reactions, and ultrahigh intensity sources for laser target interaction.

Download or read book Methods of Programming written by Manfred Broy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1991-10-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The systematic development of software systems is a central task of computing science. A software system is the result of putting together knowledge about the application, the requirements and the structures of computing science. Under the heading CIP (Computer-aided Intuition-guided Programming), a group of researchers led by Prof. F.L. Bauer and Prof. K. Samelson started work in 1975 in the direction of formal program specification, transformational programming, and tool supportfor program development. The collection of papers in this volume presents examples of a formal approach to programming language concepts and program development based on algebraic specifications and program transformations. Examples are also presented of evolutions and modificationsof the original ideas of the CIP project. The topics range from descriptionsof the program development process to derivations of algorithms from specifications. The volume is dedicated to Prof. F.L. Bauer.
Download or read book Modular Construction and Partial Order Semantics of Petri Nets written by Walter Vogler and published by Boom Koninklijke Uitgevers. This book was released on 1992-07-22 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petri nets are a well-known model for parallel systems, used for both applications and theoretical studies. They can be used for specification, modelling, and analysis, and offer a graphical representation and a clear view of concurrency. For the design of large systems, modular construction is indispensible, and considerable effort has been spent on studying themodular construction of Petri nets. This book studies the modular construction of nets, and in particular the top-down design of nets by action refinement. Suitable behavior descriptions are presented and special care is taken to justify these descriptions by showing that theyare necessary under reasonable specification requirements. In particular, itis shown that partial-order semantics is necessary to support action refinement.

Book excerpt: This volume contains a sequence of reviews presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on 'Low Dimensional Structures in Semiconductors ... from Basic Physics to Applications.' This was part of the International School of Materials Science and 1990 at the Ettore Majorana Centre in Sicily. Technology held in July Only a few years ago, Low Dimensional Structures was an esoteric concept, but now it is apparent they are likely to playa major role in the next generation of electronic devices. The theme of the School acknowledged this rapidly developing maturity.' The contributions to the volume consider not only the essential physics, but take a wider view of the topic, starting from material growth and processing, then prog ressing right through to applications with some discussion of the likely use of low dimensional devices in systems. The papers are arranged into four sections, the first of which deals with basic con cepts of semiconductor and low dimensional systems. The second section is on growth and fabrication, reviewing MBE and MOVPE methods and discussing the achievements and limitations of techniques to reduce structures into the realms of one and zero dimensions. The third section covers the crucial issue of interfaces while the final section deals with devices and device physics.

Download or read book Semirings Automata Languages written by W. Kuich and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automata theory is the oldest among the disciplines constituting the subject matter of this Monograph Series: theoretical computer science. Indeed, automata theory and the closely related theory of formal languages form nowadays such a highly developed and diversified body of knowledge that even an exposition of "reasonably important" results is not possible within one volume. The purpose of this book is to develop the theory of automata and formal languages, starting from ideas based on linear algebra. By what was said above, it should be obvious that we do not intend to be encyclopedic. However, this book contains the basics of regular and context-free languages (including some new results), as well as a rather complete theory of pushdown automata and variations (e. g. counter automata). The wellknown AFL theory is extended to power series ("AFP theory"). Additional new results include, for instance, a grammatical characterization of the cones and the principal cones of context-free languages, as well as new decidability results.

Download or read book Algebraic Specification Techniques in Object Oriented Programming Environments written by Ruth Breu and published by Springer Verlag. This book was released on 1991 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main aim of this monograph is to provide a framework for the integrated design of object-oriented programs with algebraic specification techniques. The design method pursued relies fundamentally on the structuring of systems based on the notion of data types. Depending on the level of abstraction, data types are described in an object-oriented way by algebraic specifications or by machine-executable object-oriented programs. The treatment involves two main aspects. First, object-oriented programs have to be related by a notion of correctness that models the transition from specifications to program implementations. The author presents a notion of correctness which relies on the idea of abstraction functions. Second, in order to obtain an integrated design environment, a uniform structuring concept for object oriented programs and algebraic specifications has to be provided. Inheritance, subtyping and clientship are three central notions of object-oriented structuring. Theauthor uses them to develop the kernel of a typed object- oriented programming language. The monograph provides the formal foundation for a unified framework of algebraic specifications and object-oriented programs. A major guideline is the development of a design method supporting the structured design and reuse of software in this environment."--PUBLISHER'S WEBSITE.
Download or read book Phenomenological Aspects of Supersymmetry written by Wolfgang Hollik and published by Springer. This book was released on 1992-10-12 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the Standard Model of strong and electroweak interactions describesparticle physics phenomena up to the vector boson mass scale very well, it is in general believed that it is not the ultimate theory. The aim of this series of seminars was to initiate discussions between field theorists and phenomenologically oriented high energy physicists on the observable consequenses of the concept of SUSY. The subjects covered by the individual contributions include an introduction to the basic features of SUSY models, in particular the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model, followed by discussions of the theoretical predictions and experimental findings on the particle content and mass spectra, cosmological consequenses, indirect manifestations through quantum effects, radiative corrections in the supersymmetric Higgs sector, and the concept of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking in the context ofSUSY. These topics are treated at a level appropriate for advanced students.However, the book should also be useful for teachers and researchers.
