Thoroughly revised for its second edition, this advanced textbook provides an introduction to the basic methods of computational physics, and an overview of progress in several areas of scientific computing by relying on free software available from CERN. The book begins by dealing with basic computational tools and routines, covering approximating functions, differential equations, spectral analysis, and matrix operations. Important concepts are illustrated by relevant examples at each stage. The author also discusses more advanced topics, such as molecular dynamics, modeling continuous systems, Monte Carlo methods, genetic algorithm and programming, and numerical renormalization. It includes many more exercises. This can be used as a textbook for either undergraduate or first-year graduate courses on computational physics or scientific computation. It will also be a useful reference for anyone involved in computational research.

Introduction to digital imaging covering core techniques of image capture and display of monochrome and color images. Presents fundamental tools within a powerful mathematical framework. Containing illustrations, examples, and homework problems this book is suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduates in electrical engineering and computer science, and practitioners in industry.
For cross sectional imaging modalities the thinner the VOxel the more accurate
the final representation will be of the signal from that area but, because less
signal has gone to make up the final pixel that is seen, the signal to noise ratio
will be ...
A complete text and reference book on scientific computing. It proceeds from mathematical and theoretical considerations to actual practical computer routines.
A superstitious reading of the world based on religion may be harmless at a private level, yet employed as a political tool it can have more sinister implications. As this fascinating book by Ali Rahnema, a distinguished Iranian intellectual, relates, superstition and mystical beliefs have endured and influenced ideology and political strategy in Iran from the founding of the Safavid dynasty in the sixteenth century to the present day. As Rahnema demonstrates through a close reading of the Persian sources and with examples from contemporary Iranian politics, it is this supposed connectedness to the hidden world that has allowed leaders such as Muhammad Reza Shah Pahlavi and Mahmud Ahmadinejad to present themselves and their entourage as representatives of the divine, and their rivals as the embodiment of evil.
As soon as they leave, Khomeyni asks his son Ahmad to tell them, “Charlatans,

E-commerce is still a new and volatile industry, but each day a new enterprise pops up promising to be the next big thing. The real challenge is to understand what is involved in using the Internet as a means to building a successful business. Rather than coming up with marketing hooks and product innovations, e-Enterprise: Architecting Enterprises with E-Business Models and Components demystifies E-Commerce and describes how a business should determine its own future by taking the next step and becoming an agile "e-Enterprise." Faisal Hoque introduces the concept of high-level abstraction of business processes and application functionality that result in reusable business and technology components. He provides a methodology that is critical for all business leaders and technologists trying to build an enterprise on the Internet.
