The Fourth SIAM International Conference on Data Mining continues the tradition of providing an open forum for the presentation and discussion of innovative algorithms as well as novel applications of data mining. This is reflected in the talks by the four keynote speakers who discuss data usability issues in systems for data mining in science and engineering, issues raised by new technologies that generate biological data, ways to find complex structured patterns in linked data, and advances in Bayesian inference techniques. This proceedings includes 61 research papers.
During the past few years, data mining has grown rapidly in visibility and importance within information processing and decision analysis. This is par ticularly true in the realm of e-commerce, where data mining is moving from a "nice-to-have" to a "must-have" status. In a different though related context, a new computing methodology called granular computing is emerging as a powerful tool for the conception, analysis and design of information/intelligent systems. In essence, data mining deals with summarization of information which is resident in large data sets, while granular computing plays a key role in the summarization process by draw ing together points (objects) which are related through similarity, proximity or functionality. In this perspective, granular computing has a position of centrality in data mining. Another methodology which has high relevance to data mining and plays a central role in this volume is that of rough set theory. Basically, rough set theory may be viewed as a branch of granular computing. However, its applications to data mining have predated that of granular computing.

Dengan demikian, tidak aneh kalau keberhasilan Rigg menyusun kamus Sunda
menimbulkan semacam kecemburuan di kalangan sarjana Belanda karena
walaupun mereka telah menaruh perhatian dan mempelajari Hindia Timur,
orang Inggrislah yang memberikan sumbangan ilmiah terpenting, khususnya
mengenai bahasa Sunda. Seorang pejabat kolonial, Daniel Koorders, yang
menyandang gelar doktor di bidang teologi dan hukum, tanpa tedeng aling-aling

This unusually practical introduction to numerical control technology fully explains the most recent developments in machining and programming. Logically organized, it begins with a review of basic concepts and principles and moves on to tooling, workholding, machine setting, speeds and feeds, and part programming before concluding with a discussion of advanced techniques. Both beginning and advanced readers will find a wealth of new information in this complete overview of computer numerical control.
"This is an excellent and well-written text on discrete event simulation with a focus on applications in Operations Research. There is substantial attention to programming, output analysis, pseudo-random number generation and modelling and these sections are quite thorough. Methods are provided for generating pseudo-random numbers (including combining such streams) and for generating random numbers from most standard statistical distributions." --ISI Short Book Reviews, 22:2, August 2002
