Mathematics for Computer Scientists

Mathematics for Computer Scientists

The aim of this book is to present some the basic mathematics that is needed by computer scientists. The reader is not expected to be a mathematician and we hopewill find what follows useful.Just a word of warming. Unless you a,re one of the irritating minority mathematics is hard. You cannot just read a mathematics book like a novel. The combination of the compression made by the symbols used and the precision of the argument makes this impossible. It takes time and effort to decipher the mathematics and understand the meaning. It is a little like programming, it takes time to understand a lot, of code and you never understand how to write code by just reading a manual – you have to do it! Mathematics is exactly the same, you need to do it.

Hardware and Software: Verification and Testing: 4th International Haifa Verification Conference, HVC 2008

Product Description

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th International Haifa Verification Conference, HVC 2008, held in Haifa, Israel in October 2008.

The 12 revised full papers and 4 tool papers presented together with 6 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 initial submissions. The papers address all current issues, challenges and future directions of verification for hardware, software, and hybrid systems and present academic research in the verification of systems, generally divided into two paradigms – formal verification and dynamic verification (testing). Within each paradigm, different algorithms and techniques are used for hardware and software systems with a special focus on hybrid methods.

Embedded Computing: A VLIW Approach to Architecture, Compilers and Tools

Embedded Computing: A VLIW Approach to Architecture, Compilers and Tools

Embedded Computing is enthralling in its clarity and exhilarating in its scope. If the technology you are working on is associated with VLIWs or “embedded computing”, then clearly it is imperative that you read this book. If you are involved in computer system design or programming, you must still read this book, because it will take you to places where the views are spectacular. You don’t necessarily have to agree with every point the authors make, but you will understand what they are trying to say, and they will make you think.

Access Denied: The Practice and Policy of Global Internet Filtering

Ronald J. Deibert, John G. Palfrey, «Access Denied: The Practice and Policy of Global Internet Filtering»
MIT Press | ISBN: 0262541963 | 2008 | PDF | 320 pages | 8.88 MB
This book is a testament to collaboration. About five years ago, it became clear to several of us—at the University of Cambridge, Harvard Law School, and the University of Toronto—that we might accomplish more by working together, across institutions and continents, than we could by going it alone. Since that time, the Oxford Internet Institute has joined our team, along with more than fifty researchers around the globe. Collaboration is not easy; we have had our share of struggles along the way to keep our partnership functioning effectively. Neither the analytical chapters of this volume nor the new global data set that we have compiled, on which our analytical work relies, would be possible without the partnership that joins us.

The First Computers - History and Architectures

Raúl Rojas, «The First Computers - History and Architectures»
MIT Press | ISBN: 0262181975 | 2000 | PDF | 471 pages | 12.62 MB
This history of computing focuses not on chronology (what came first and who deserves credit for it) but on the actual architectures of the first machines that made electronic computing a practical reality. The book covers computers built in the United States, Germany, England, and Japan. It makes clear that similar concepts were often pursued simultaneously and that the early researchers explored many architectures beyond the von Neumann architecture that eventually became canonical. The contributors include not only historians but also engineers and computer pioneers. An introductory chapter describes the elements of computer architecture and explains why "being first" is even less interesting for computers than for other areas of technology. The essays contain a remarkable amount of new material, even on well-known machines, and several describe reconstructions of the historic machines. These investigations are of more than simply historical interest, for architectures designed to solve specific problems in the past may suggest new approaches to similar problems in today's machines.

Topics and demos include: analysis tools, data recovery, forensic examination checklists, instant messenger issues, litigation, forensic training and certification information, case profiles, and more

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS The third party software contained on the CD-ROM runs on a variety of platforms and operating systems. Please consult Appendix G for more details, and especially Web site information for specific requirements, updates, etc. Minimum system requirements for all of these software products include Adobe Acrobat 5.0 or higher, Windows 2000, XP; an Internet connection; some also require basic hardware such as Firewire, USB Devices, Zip, Jaz, Floppy Diskettes, or hard disk drives (IDE, EIDE, SCSI, ATA, SATA).

Amazon.com Review:

The mightiest fortresses in the world can fail, and when that happens all you can do (you being the person responsible for castle security) is figure out what went wrong, what damage was done, and by whom. If the castle was located in the right kind of kingdom--to take a metaphor too far--you can hope to prosecute the perpetrator. Computer Forensics: Computer Crime Scene Investigation explains how to gather evidence of computer crimes in such a way that it will be more likely to lead to a conviction in a criminal court. It's an interesting legal area--after all, it's almost always you, and not any law enforcement agency doing the surveillance and evidence-gathering on your computer systems--and John Vacca has done a fair bit of research. This book will probably expand your thinking on the subject of information security.

On the other hand, though Vacca gives good general advice (don't lose volatile information by shutting a compromised machine down midattack; do be prepared to translate memory dumps into jury-readable form), he sometimes meanders into generalizations and irrelevancies. The fact that terrorists distribute their plans via public Web sites is certainly scary, but hardly helpful to someone wanting to prosecute the guy who vandalized the corporate Web site. Similarly interesting, but practically irrelevant to most of us, are discussions of high-energy radio frequency (HERF) and electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapons that can knock out information systems from a distance. More focus on evidence collection in organizational computing environments would make this book useful, rather than just generally informative. --David Wall

Topics covered: How to gather evidence of a hack attack after the fact, and a lot of general-interest information on the state of crime and law enforcement in computer technology. Coverage is almost all general in nature, dealing with how to formulate a strategy and deal with events without getting into details of any operating system or computing environment.

Supercomputers: Charting the Future of Cybernetics (Science and Technology in Focus)

Supercomputers: Charting the Future of Cybernetics (Science and Technology in Focus)
Facts on File | 2004 | ISBN: 0816047308 | Pages: 208 | PDF | 3.98 MB

Some computers are so fast and powerful that they are known as "supercomputers." The next generation of these computers will be able to complete more than one trillion operations per second. We need computers that are powerful enough to access, process, and apply the world's store of information, which is doubling approximately every five years. Supercomputers, a totally revised and expanded edition in the new Science and Technology in Focus series, introduces readers to the history of these powerful machines and looks to their role in the future. This new edition covers recent advances such as optical computing (the use of light, rather than electrons, to carry information) and quantum computing (the application of quantum mechanics to create computers that operate, in part, on the atomic scale). Written in a lively, informative tone, Supercomputers presents the latest computer technology in a clear and exciting format that will benefit all readers interested in this fast-growing field.
