Review Time-integrative Geographic Information Systems - Management and Analysis of Spatio-Temporal Data / Springer:Time has always been a fascinating dimension of human existence. It is also an aspect in the field of geographic information science that today is getting more attention than ever before. Although the concept of storing unique attribute information linked to objects within a GIS is fundamental, adding the time element raises some intriguing questions and presents new difficulties. Time adds process to pattern and the inclusion of temporal aspects within a GIS opens new perspectives. It is definitely one of the most exciting prospects that lies ahead in this field. The book deals with the integration of temporal information in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The main purpose of a temporal or time-integrative GIS is to reproduce spatio-temporal processes or sequences of events of the realworld in a model in such a way as to make them accessible for spatial query, analysis and visualisation. The volume reflects theoretical thoughts on the interrelations of space and time and includes practical examples taken from various fields of application (spatial/environmental analysis, demographics, history, business data warehousing).

Review Industrial Applications of Semantic Web: Proceedings of the 1st International IFIP/WG12.5 Working Conference on Industrial Applications of Semantic Web, ... Federation for Information Processing) / Springer:The Semantic Web, that adds a conceptual layer of machine-understandable metadata to the existing content, will make the content available for processing by intelligent software allowing automatic resource integration and providing interoperability between heterogeneous systems. The Semantic Web is now the most important influence on the development of the Web. The next generation of intelligent applications will be capable of making use of suchmetadata to perform resource discovery and integration based on its sematics. Sematic Web aims at developing a global environment on top of Web with interoperable heterogeneous applications, agents, web services, data repositories, humans, and so on. On the technology side, Web-oriented languages and technologies are being developed (e. g. RDF, OWL, OWL-S, WSMO, etc. ), and the success of the Semantic Web will depend on a wide-spread industrial adoption of these technologies. Trend within worldwide activities related to Semantic Web definitely shows that the technology has emerging growth of interest both academic and industry during a relatively small time interval.

Review Computational Methods for Large Sparse Power Systems: An Object Oriented Approach (With CD-ROM) (Power Electronics and Power Systems) / Springer:Computational methods in Power Systems require significant inputs from diverse disciplines, such as data base structures, numerical analysis etc. Strategic decisions in sparsity exploitation and algorithm design influence large-scale simulation and high-speed computations. Selection of programming paradigm shapes the design, its modularity and reusability. This has a far reaching effect on software maintenance. Computational Methods for Large Sparse Power Systems Analysis: An Object Oriented Approach provides a unified object oriented (OO) treatment for power system analysis. Sparsity exploitation techniques in OO paradigm are emphasized to facilitate large scale and fast computing. Specific applications like large-scale load flow, short circuit analysis, state estimation and optimal power flow are discussed within this framework. A chapter on modeling and computational issues in power system dynamics is also included. Motivational examples and illustrations are included throughout the book. A library of C++ classes provided along with this book has classes for transmission lines, transformers, substation etc. [+]
A CD-ROM with C++ programs is also included. It contains load flow, short circuit analysis and network topology processor applications.
