Book Synopsis Goguen Categories by : Michael Winter
Download or read book Goguen Categories written by Michael Winter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goguen categories extend the relational calculus and its categorical formalization to the fuzzy world. Starting from the fundamental concepts of sets, binary relations and lattices, this book introduces several categorical formulations of an abstract theory of relations such as allegories, Dedekind categories and related structures. It is shown that neither theory is sufficiently rich to describe basic operations on fuzzy relations.

Book Synopsis Formal Methods and Object Technology by : Stephen J. Goldsack
Download or read book Formal Methods and Object Technology written by Stephen J. Goldsack and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rationale Software engineering aims to develop software by using approaches which en able large and complex program suites to be developed in a systematic way. However, it is well known that it is difficult to obtain the level of assurance of correctness required for safety critical software using old fashioned program ming techniques. The level of safety required becomes particularly high in software which is to function without a break for long periods of time, since the software cannot be restarted and errors can accumulate. Consequently programming for mission critical systems, for example, needs to address the requirements of correctness with particular care. In the search for techniques for making software cheaper and more reliable, two important but largely independent influences have been visible in recent years. These are: • Object Technology • Formal Methods First, it has become evident that objects are, and will remain an important concept in software. Experimental languages of the 1970's introduced various concepts of package, cluster, module, etc. giving concrete expression to the importance of modularity and encapsulation, the construction of software com ponents hiding their state representations and algorithmic mechanisms from users, exporting only those features (mainly the procedure calling mechanisms) which were needed in order to use the objects. This gives the software com ponents a level of abstraction, separating the view of what a module does for the system from the details of how it does them.

Book Synopsis GABCOM & GABMET by : Gmelin Institut
Download or read book GABCOM & GABMET written by Gmelin Institut and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1993-07-02 with total page 724 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scientific literature in chemistry and physics abounds with abbreviations of chemical compounds, physical methods and mathematical procedures. Unfortunately, many authors take it for granted that the reader knows the meaning of an abbreviation, something quite trivial for a specialist. For the less informed reader, these abbreviations thus present definite communication problems. The Gmelin Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the Max Planck Society has collected more than 4000 abbreviations for methods and terms from chemistry, physics and mathematics and more than 4000 chemical compounds (mostly ligands in coordination chemistry and standard reagents for physical and analytical methods). GABCOM and GABMET provide an overview enabling readers and authors to check the definition of an abbreviation used by an author and to see whether this abbreviation is already being used for other purposes. GABCOM and GABMET are also in preparation in electronic form (data file and search software) for IBM-PC or compatible computers.

Book Synopsis The Fuzzification of Systems by : Rudolf Seising
Download or read book The Fuzzification of Systems written by Rudolf Seising and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-08-16 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Fuzzy Set Theory is the core discipline of so-called ‘soft’ computing, and provides new impetus for research in the field of artificial intelligence. In this fascinating book, the history of Fuzzy Set Theory and the ways it was first used are incorporated into the history of 20th century science and technology. Influences from philosophy, system theory and cybernetics stemming from the earliest part of the 20th century are considered alongside those of communication and control theory from mid-century.
Book Synopsis Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science by : José Luis Fiadeiro
Download or read book Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science written by José Luis Fiadeiro and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-08-31 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 2004, after one year of intense debate, CMCS, the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science, and WADT, the Workshop on Al- braic Development Techniques, decided to join their forces and reputations into a new high-level biennial conference. CALCO, the Conference on Algebra and Co- gebra in Computer Science, was created to bring together researchers and practit- ners to exchange new results related to foundational aspects, and both traditional and emerging uses of algebras and coalgebras in computer science. A steering committee was put together by merging those of CMCS and WADT: Jiri Adamek, Ataru Na- gawa, Michel Bidoit, José Fiadeiro (co-chair), Hans-Peter Gumm, Bart Jacobs, Hans- Jörg Kreowski, Ugo Montanari, Larry Moss, Peter Mosses, Fernando Orejas, Fr- cesco Parisi-Presicce, John Power, Horst Reichel, Markus Roggenbach, Jan Rutten (co-chair), and Andrzej Tarlecki. CALCO 2005 was the first instance of this new conference. The interest that it generated in the scientific community suggests that it will not be the last. Indeed, it attracted as many as 62 submissions covering a wide range of topics roughly divided into two areas: Algebras and Coalgebras as Mathematical Objects: Automata and languages; categorical semantics; hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems; inductive and co- ductive methods; modal logics; relational systems and term rewriting.
Book Synopsis Foundations of Algebraic Specification and Formal Software Development by : Donald Sannella
Download or read book Foundations of Algebraic Specification and Formal Software Development written by Donald Sannella and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides foundations for software specification and formal software development from the perspective of work on algebraic specification, concentrating on developing basic concepts and studying their fundamental properties. These foundations are built on a solid mathematical basis, using elements of universal algebra, category theory and logic, and this mathematical toolbox provides a convenient language for precisely formulating the concepts involved in software specification and development. Once formally defined, these notions become subject to mathematical investigation, and this interplay between mathematics and software engineering yields results that are mathematically interesting, conceptually revealing, and practically useful. The theory presented by the authors has its origins in work on algebraic specifications that started in the early 1970s, and their treatment is comprehensive. This book contains five kinds of material: the requisite mathematical foundations; traditional algebraic specifications; elements of the theory of institutions; formal specification and development; and proof methods. While the book is self-contained, mathematical maturity and familiarity with the problems of software engineering is required; and in the examples that directly relate to programming, the authors assume acquaintance with the concepts of functional programming. The book will be of value to researchers and advanced graduate students in the areas of programming and theoretical computer science.
