This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Applications of Graph Transformations with Industrial Relevance, AGTIVE 2003, held in Charlotesville, Virginia, USA in September/October 2003. The 27 revised full papers and 11 revised demo papers presented together with 2 invited papers and 5 workshop reports were carefully selected during iterated rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on Web applications; data structures and data bases; engineering applications; agent-oriented and functional programs and distribution; object- and aspect-oriented systems; natural languages: processing and structuring; reengineering; reuse and integration; modeling languages; bioinformatics; and multimedia, picture, and visual languages.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Approximation and Online Algorithms, WAOA 2004, held in Bergen, Norway in September 2004. The 21 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from 47 submissions. WAOA is devoted to the design and analysis of algorithms for online and computationally hard problems. Among the topics addressed are applications to game theory, approximation classes, coloring and partitioning, competitive analysis, computational finance, cuts and connectivity, geometric computations, inapproximability results, mechanism design, network design, routing, packing and covering, paradigms, randomization techniques, and scheduling problems.
This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 5th Annual Global Innovation and Knowledge Academy, GIKA 2015, held in Valencia, Spain, in July 2015. The theme of the conference was “New Knowledge Impacts on Designing Implementable Innovative Realities.” The GIKA conference offers a unique opportunity for researchers, professionals, and students to present and exchange ideas concerning management, information systems, and business economics and see its implications in the real world. The 13 contributions accepted for GIKA 2015 were selected from 102 submissions and include research that contributes to the creation of a solid evidence base concerning new information and communication technologies for knowledge management, measuring the impact and diffusion of new technologies within organizations, and highlighting the role of new technologies and tools in the relationships between knowledge management and organizational innovation.
This new book can be read independently from the first volume and may be used for lecturing, seminar- and self-study, or for general reference. It focuses more on specific topics in order to introduce readers to a wealth of basic and useful ideas without the hindrance of heavy machinery or undue abstractions. User-friendly with its abundance of examples illustrating the theory at virtually every step, the volume contains a large number of carefully chosen exercises to provide newcomers with practice, while offering a rich additional source of information to experts. A direct approach is used in order to present the material in an efficient and economic way, thereby introducing readers to a considerable amount of interesting ring theory without being dragged through endless preparatory material.
For junior- to senior-level courses in Graph Theory taken by majors in Mathematics, Computer Science, or Engineering or for beginning-level graduate courses. Once considered an "unimportant" branch of topology, graph theory has come into its own through many important contributions to a wide range of fields -- and is now one of the fastest-growing areas in discrete mathematics and computer science. This new text introduces basic concepts, definitions, theorems, and examples from graph theory. The authors present a collection of interesting results from mathematics that involve key concepts and proof techniques; cover design and analysis of computer algorithms for solving problems in graph theory; and discuss applications of graph theory to the sciences. It is mathematically rigorous, but also practical, intuitive, and algorithmic.
