This 1998 book presents the underlying principles associated with object-orientation and its practical application. More than just another text on methodology, it focuses on the fundamental concepts related to the process of software development and architectural design in order to lay the basis necessary for the development of robust, maintainable, and evolvable software.

This book, first published in 1995, introduces CRC (Class, Responsibility, Collaborator) cards with a description of the cards and how they can be used in interactive sessions to develop an object-oriented model of an application. The author describes how CRC cards can contribute at all stages of the software lifecycle.

Walks COBOL users through the next phase of COBOL: Object-Oriented COBOL. Teaches how to integrate COBOL with object-oriented methodologies.

This book teaches object-oriented analysis and design from first principles and clearly explains C++ mechanisms that implement object-oriented concepts.

This non-theoretical text, linked to real parallel programming software, covers the techniques of parallel programming in a practical manner that enables students to write and evaluate their parallel programs. The second edition has been revised to incorporate a greater focus on cluster programming.

This book presents both a qualitative and quantitative description of the device. The second edition has been refined to improve pedagogical effectiveness.

Offers an introduction to the field of seminumerical algorithms, with separate chapters on random numbers and arithmetic. This book summarizes the major paradigms and basic theory of such algorithms, thereby providing a comprehensive interface between computer programming and numerical analysis, and a fresh treatment of random number generators.

Provides a practical coverage of mathematics and its application in the world of electronics. This book includes a chapter called 'Opening Scenario' that demonstrates the tie-out between the chapter topic and applications on the job. Over 500 new Word Problems help develop quantitative reasoning and problem-solving skills.

Knuth's multivolume analysis of algorithms is widely recognized as the definitive description of classical computer science. The first three volumes of this work have long comprised a unique and invaluable resource in programming theory and practice. Scientists have marveled at the beauty and elegance of Knuth's analysis, while practicing programmers have successfully applied his "cookbook" solutions to their day-to-day problems. ¿The level of these first three volumes has remained so high, and they have displayed so wide and deep a familiarity with the art of computer programming, that a sufficient "review" of future volumes could almost be: "Knuth, Volume n has been published."-Data Processing Digest¿Knuth, Volume n has been published, where n = 4A.¿In this long-awaited new volume, the old master turns his attention to some of his favorite topics in broadword computation and combinatorial generation (exhaustively listing fundamental combinatorial objects, such as permutations, partitions, and trees), as well as his more recent interests, such as binary decision diagrams.¿The hallmark qualities that distinguish his previous volumes are manifest here anew: detailed coverage of the basics, illustrated with well-chosen examples; occasional forays into more esoteric topics and problems at the frontiers of research; impeccable writing peppered with occasional bits of humor; extensive collections of exercises, all with solutions or helpful hints; a careful attention to history; implementations of many of the algorithms in his classic step-by-step form.¿There is an amazing amount of information on each page. Knuth has obviously thought long and hard about which topics and results are most central and important, and then, what are the most intuitive and succinct ways of presenting that material. Since the areas that he covers in this volume have exploded since he first envisioned writing about them, it is wonderful how he has managed to provide such thorough treatment in so few pages.-Frank Ruskey, Department of Computer Science, University of Victoria¿The book is Volume 4A, because Volume 4 has itself become a multivolume undertaking. Combinatorial searching is a rich and important topic, and Knuth has too much to say about it that is new, interesting, and useful to fit into a single volume, or two, or maybe even three. This book alone includes approximately 1500 exercises, with answers for self-study, plus hundreds of useful facts that cannot be found in any other publication. Volume 4A surely belongs beside the first three volumes of this classic work in every serious programmer's library.

Focuses on the design and implementation of the concurrency features added to the Java platform in Java 5.0 and Java 6. This title is suitable for Java developers.

Presenting a theory of human motivation from a social-cognitive perspective, this book addresses the roles played by cognitive, vicarious, self-regulatory, and self-reflective processes in psychosocial functioning. It emphasizes reciprocal causation through the interplay of cognitive, behavioral, and environmental factors.

For a one-semester upper-level undergraduate course in Thermal Physics or Thermodynamics. This book provides a solid introduction to the classical and statistical theories of thermodynamics.

Introduces the relationship between brain structure and activity, its function and behaviour. This book covers topics in the field of human neuropsychology, simultaneously introducing students to developments in the area. It provides a balance between theory and application, enabling students to develop an understanding of the subject.

For courses in Theory and Fabrication of Integrated Circuits, this text presents a survey of the techniques in the field. It assumes a minimal knowledge of integrated circuits and of terminal behaviour of electronic components such as resistors, diodes, and MOS and bipolar transistors.

Best seller for introductory courses in Laser Electronics and Quantum Electronics.
