Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once treated as the absence of knowledge, ignorance today has become a highly influential topic in its own right, commanding growing attention across the natural and social sciences where a wide range of scholars have begun to explore the social life and political issues involved in the distribution and strategic use of not knowing. The field is growing fast and this handbook reflects this interdisciplinary field of study by drawing contributions from economics, sociology, history, philosophy, cultural studies, anthropology, feminist studies, and related fields in order to serve as a seminal guide to the political, legal and social uses of ignorance in social and political life.

Download or read book Proof Theory and Automated Deduction written by Jean Goubault-Larrecq and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in computer applications has led to a new attitude to applied logic in which researchers tailor a logic in the same way they define a computer language. In response to this attitude, this text for undergraduate and graduate students discusses major algorithmic methodologies, and tableaux and resolution methods. The authors focus on first-order logic, the use of proof theory, and the computer application of automated searches for proofs of mathematical propositions.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Human Computer Interaction written by Andrew F. Monk and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentals of Human-Computer Interaction aims to sensitize the systems designer to the problems faced by the user of an interactive system. The book grew out of a course entitled ""The User Interface: Human Factors for Computer-based Systems"" which has been run annually at the University of York since 1981. This course has been attended primarily by systems managers from the computer industry. The book is organized into three parts. Part One focuses on the user as processor of information with studies on visual perception; extracting information from printed and electronically presented text; and human memory. Part Two on the use of behavioral data includes studies on how and when to collect behavioral data; and statistical evaluation of behavioral data. Part Three deals with user interfaces. The chapters in this section cover topics such as work station design, user interface design, and speech communication. It is hoped that this book will be read by systems engineers and managers concerned with the design of interactive systems as well as graduate and undergraduate computer science students. The book is also suitable as a tutorial text for certain courses for students of Psychology and Ergonomics.

Download or read book Global Warming and Climate Change written by Emma Carlson Berne and published by Referencepoint Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, the cause and impact of global warming and climate change is being passionately debated. While many claim that a climate crisis is imminent if greenhouse gases are not curbed, others argue that the effects have been overblown. Through objective overviews, primary sources, and full-color illustrations, this title will examine What Is Global Warming and Climate Change? What Are the Consequences of Global Warming? What Are the Controversies Surrounding Global Warming? What Are the Solutions for Global Warming?

Download or read book Logic for Computer Science written by Jean H. Gallier and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2015-06-18 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This advanced text for undergraduate and graduate students introduces mathematical logic with an emphasis on proof theory and procedures for algorithmic construction of formal proofs. The self-contained treatment is also useful for computer scientists and mathematically inclined readers interested in the formalization of proofs and basics of automatic theorem proving. Topics include propositional logic and its resolution, first-order logic, Gentzen's cut elimination theorem and applications, and Gentzen's sharpened Hauptsatz and Herbrand's theorem. Additional subjects include resolution in first-order logic; SLD-resolution, logic programming, and the foundations of PROLOG; and many-sorted first-order logic. Numerous problems appear throughout the book, and two Appendixes provide practical background information.

Download or read book Automatique appliqu e written by Eugène Dieulesaint and published by Elsevier Masson. This book was released on 1990 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'objectif de cet ouvrage est d'exposer, d'un point de vue physique, les notions nécessaires à l'analyse et à la synthèse de la commande, par processeur numérique, d'un dispositif analogique. La lecture de ce second tome, sera facilitée par l'étude des méthodes analogiques de commande exposées dans le tome 1. Ce second tome est divisé en sept chapitres. Les trois premiers portent respectivement sur le schéma fonctionnel de commande, les systèmes à temps discret et leur stabilité, les modèles d'ordre un, deux et n supérieur à 2. Ces derniers sont décrits par vecteur d'état. La commande numérique d'un dispositif analogique est modélisée dans le 4e chapitre. Les moyens d'imposer au système un fonctionnement satisfaisant sont étudiés dans le 5e chapitre. Dans le 6e chapitre, la commande optimale est traitée suivant la méthode de programmation dynamique. L'objet principal du 7e et dernier chapitre, intitulé "Commande en présence du bruit", est d'introduire l'estimateur récursif, optimal selon Kalman. Des exercices avec solutions détaillées (71) sont proposés à la fin de chaque chapitre. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants de niveau maîtrise et troisième cycle en EEA (Electronique - Electrotechnique - Automatique) et robotique ainsi qu'aux élèves des grandes écoles scientifiques et aux ingénieurs exerçant des activités en physique appliquée (instrumentation, métrologie, télécommunications...).

Book excerpt: L'avant-propos indique : "Ce volume est divisé en trois parties. La première traite de l'analyse des signaux, on y trouve les caractéristiques des signaux déterministes : fonction du temps, puissance, valeurs moyennes... , et les caractéristiques des signaux aléatoires : densité de probabilité, fonction d'autocorrélation, ... La seconde partie propose la description des systèmes linéaires et l'analyse de leur comportement par l'équation différentielle et l'équation de convolution. La troisième partie est consacrée au développement de quelques notions de physiques indispensables à la formation d'un électronicien : elles permettent en effet de comprendre les phénomènes qui sont à l'origine des relations descriptives du fonctionnement des dipôles fondamentaux (résistance, capacité, inductance). Des exercices avec solutions sont proposés la fin des principaux chapitres"
