Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un système distribué peut être représenté par un graphe étiqueté : les sommets correspondent aux processeurs, les arêtes aux liens de communication et les étiquettes associées aux sommets codent les états des processeurs. Un algorithme distribué est alors décrit par un système de règles de transition locale où l'étiquette suivante d'un sommet est fonction de son étiquette actuelle et de celles de ses voisins (réétiquetage local). Les réétiquetages opérant sur des voisinages disjoints se déroulent en parallèle, de manière asynchrone. Dans ce cadre, on étudie la réalisabilité et non-réalisabilité des tâches distribuées. Nous illustrerons notre méthode en nous intéressant en particulier à certains problèmes spécifiques aux systèmes distribués (élection d'un noeud, reconnaissance de certaines propriétés topologiques du graphe sous-jacent au réseau, calcul de métriques du réseau comme par exemple la taille ou le diamètre). Dans tous ces cas, on présente une caractérisation complète de ce qui est réalisable par calcul distribué en fonction de la topologie du graphe sous-jacent mais également du degré de connaissance qu'a le réseau sur lui-même ("connaissance structurelle"). Ces conditions nécessaires et suffisantes sont principalement exprimées en termes de fermetures par s̀̀imilarités'' des familles de réseaux considérées. Ces s̀̀imilarités'' sont décrites de manière combinatoire à l'aide de morphismes de graphes particuliers : les revêtements et les quasi-revêtements. Les preuves des conditions nécessaires emploient des techniques de simulation à base de revêtements et quasi-revêtements. Les algorithmes distribués présentés pour les preuves des conditions suffisantes se fondent essentiellement sur un algorithme de cartographie du réseau sous-jacent. Celui-ci est construit à partir des extensions d'un algorithme d'énumération de A. Mazurkiewicz et d'un algorithme de détection des propriétés stables de Shy, Szymanski et Prywes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les modèles et les algorithmes de graphes se sont imposés aujourd'hui dans de nombreuses disciplines, aussi bien dans les sciences de base (physique, chimie, biologie, sciences humaines, informatique théorique et algorithmique) que dans les sciences de l'ingénieur (automatique, optimisation de systèmes, économie et recherche opérationnelle, analyse de données, ingénierie des grands réseaux de communication de type internet, etc). Cette nouvelle édition est la seule à offrir un panorama aussi complet de ces outils et de leurs plus récents développements. Graphes et algorithmes rend compte de la puissance de modélisation procurée par les graphes, et de la disponibilité d'une vaste panoplie d'algorithmes opérationnels. Cette nouvelle édition développe les nombreux résultats, souvent fins, conduisant à la réduction de la complexité des algorithmes (flots, chemins, arbres, etc.) , les nouvelles familles d'algorithmes approchés (ou métaheuristiques) en particulier ceux inspirés de la biologie (algorithmes génétiques, ou ceux imitant le comportement des colonies de fourmis) , les algorithmes fondés sur des processus aléatoires (algorithmes itératifs aléatoires ou algorithmes gloutons aléatoires). Proposant au lecteur environ 230 exercices et plus de 100 problèmes concrets modélisés, cette nouvelle édition s'est enrichie aussi d'une présentation plus aérée et de nombreuses références bibliographiques. Graphes et algorithmes s'adresse à un large éventail de chercheurs et ingénieurs des laboratoires et bureaux d'études, et de futurs ingénieurs et étudiants en licence et master.

Download or read book Integrable Systems written by V. Babelon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the proceedings of the International Conference on Integrable Systems in memory of J.-L. Verdier. It was held on July 1-5, 1991 at the Centre International de Recherches Mathematiques (C.I.R.M.) at Luminy, near Marseille (France). This collection of articles, covering many aspects of the theory of integrable Hamiltonian systems, both finite and infinite-dimensional, with an emphasis on the algebro-geometric meth ods, is published here as a tribute to Verdier who had planned this confer ence before his death in 1989 and whose active involvement with this topic brought integrable systems to the fore as a subject for active research in France. The death of Verdier and his wife on August 25, 1989, in a car accident near their country house, was a shock to all of us who were acquainted with them, and was very deeply felt in the mathematics community. We knew of no better way to honor Verdier's memory than to proceed with both the School on Integrable Systems at the C.I.M.P.A. (Centre International de Mathematiques Pures et Appliquees in Nice), and the Conference on the same theme that was to follow it, as he himself had planned them.

Download or read book Numerical Taxonomy written by Joseph Felsenstein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NATO Advanced Study Institute on Numerical Taxonomy took place on the 4th - 16th of July, 1982, at the Kur- und Kongresshotel Residenz in Bad Windsheim, Federal Republic of Germany. This volume is the proceedings of that meeting, and contains papers by over two-thirds of the participants in the Institute. Numerical taxonomy has been attracting increased attention from systematists and evolutionary biologists. It is an area which has been marked by debate and conflict, sometimes bitter. Happily, this meeting took place in an atmosphere of "GemUtlichkeit", though scarcely of unanimity. I believe that these papers will show that there is an increased understanding by each taxonomic school of each others' positions. This augurs a period in which the debates become more concrete and specific. Let us hope that they take place in a scientific atmosphere which has occasionally been lacking in the past. Since the order of presentation of papers in the meeting was affected by time constraints, I have taken the liberty of rearranging them into a more coherent subject ordering. The first group of papers, taken from the opening and closing days of the meeting, debate philosophies of classification. The next two sections have papers on congruence, clustering and ordination. A notable concern of these participants is the comparison and testing of classifications. This has been missing from many previous discussions of numerical classification.

Download or read book Artificial Intelligence and Mobile Robots written by David Kortenkamp and published by American Association for Artif. This book was released on 1998 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mobile robot systems described in this book were selected from among the best available implementations by leading universities and research laboratories. These are robots that have left the lab and been tested in natural and unknown environments. They perform many different tasks, from giving tours to collecting trash. Many have distinguished themselves (usually with first- or second-place finishes) at various indoor and outdoor mobile robot competitions. Each case study is self-contained and includes detailed descriptions of important algorithms, including pseudo-code. Thus this volume serves as a recipe book for the design of successful mobile robot applications. Common themes include navigation and mapping, computer vision, and architecture.

Download or read book Exploring Textual Data written by Ludovic Lebart and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers in a number of disciplines deal with large text sets requiring both text management and text analysis. Faced with a large amount of textual data collected in marketing surveys, literary investigations, historical archives and documentary data bases, these researchers require assistance with organizing, describing and comparing texts. Exploring Textual Data demonstrates how exploratory multivariate statistical methods such as correspondence analysis and cluster analysis can be used to help investigate, assimilate and evaluate textual data. The main text does not contain any strictly mathematical demonstrations, making it accessible to a large audience. This book is very user-friendly with proofs abstracted in the appendices. Full definitions of concepts, implementations of procedures and rules for reading and interpreting results are fully explored. A succession of examples is intended to allow the reader to appreciate the variety of actual and potential applications and the complementary processing methods. A glossary of terms is provided.

This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2008 is a memorial year for Georgiy Vorono (1868-1908), with a number of events in the scientific community commemorating his tremendous contribution to the area of mathematics, especially number theory, through conferences and scientific gatherings in his honor. A notable event taking place in September 2008 a joint c- ference: the 5th Annual International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams (ISVD) and the 4th International Conference on Analytic Number Theory and Spatial Tessel- tions held in Kyiv, Georgiy Vorono ’s native land. The main ideas expressed by G. Vorono ’s through his fundamental works have influenced and shaped the key dev- opments in computation geometry, image recognition, artificial intelligence, robotics, computational science, navigation and obstacle avoidance, geographical information systems, molecular modeling, astrology, physics, quantum computing, chemical en- neering, material sciences, terrain modeling, biometrics and other domains. This book is intended to provide the reader with in-depth overview and analysis of the fundamental methods and techniques developed following G. Voronoi ideas, in the context of the vast and increasingly growing area of computational intelligence. It represents the collection of state-of-the art research methods merging the bridges between two areas: geometric computing through Voronoi diagrams and intelligent computation techniques, pushing the limits of current knowledge in the area, impr- ing on previous solutions, merging sciences together, and inventing new ways of approaching difficult applied problems.
