Nova Science Publishers Inc Wiki Supporting Formal & Informal Learning
Book SynopsisAlready in common use outside the educational arena, wikis are rapidly moving into education as a form of learner communication and expression, and as a means to facilitate collaboration and working in groups. Many uses of wikis in formal education have been outlined by scholars and practitioners mainly focused on the students'' perspective. However, further investigations are needed on how teachers are actually using this tool to support the design and development of educational materials, as well as the evaluation of both individual contribution and active participation to collaborative learning projects. This book provides a valuable tool and a source of knowledge for all those involved in enhancement of formal and informal learning both in higher and adult education.

Nova Science Publishers Inc Access for All: The Impact & Role of Computers &
Book SynopsisThe rapid adoption of the Internet and computing technologies by all sectors of modern society has made them an indispensable part of our daily work and life. Access to these resources is taken for granted by public agencies providing services to the community, by those who conduct business and commerce, and by those who use them to stay current on public affairs and in touch with their families and friends on a daily basis. Yet not all individuals have consistent access to these resources. They may be unable to afford them, they may need basic training in how to use them, or they may be displaced from their normal access points. This book outlines research targeted at documenting, describing, and analysing the impact internet and computers in public libraries have on the lives of individuals, families, and communities. It describes the characteristics of people who use public access computers and Internet connections, the types of use they engage in, and the impact that use has on their own lives, that of their families and friends, and the communities they live in. The book then continues to examine the effect of library characteristics and policies on public access computing use and impact, as a first step toward helping libraries understand how some of their services may be affecting the overall success of their efforts in providing public access services to their communities.

Nova Science Publishers Inc Logic Programming: Theory, Practices and
Book SynopsisProlog for logic programming is one of the most intensively studied software languages in the 1980s. During the same period, the data-flow model for parallel computation attracted a lot of attention of researchers in the computer science; hence, it was very natural that several approaches were tried toward combining the two and implementing logic programs in parallel machines with the data-flow architecture. These approaches, however, were rather indirect ones in the sense that they developed programs describing AND/OR-parallelism for deduction using a data-flow language and executed them in a data-flow computer, and yet did not devise a direct'' model for parallel execution (reasoning) of a logic program. This book discusses fuzzy logic inferencing for Pong; dislog; SEProlog; and provides direct graphical representations of first-order logic for inference.

Technics Publications LLC Logic and Relational Theory: Thoughts and Essays
Book SynopsisThis book is a revised, upgraded, and hugely improved version of an earlier one called Logic and Databases. Although its effectively a brand new book, therefore, the following remarks from that earlier book are still relevant here. First, logic and databases are inextricably intertwined. The relational model itself is essentially just elementary logic, tailored to database needs. Now, if youre a database professional, this wont be news to you -- but you still might not realize just how much everything we do in the database world is (or should be!) affected by logic. Logic is fundamental, and everywhere. As a database professional, therefore, you owe it to yourself to understand the basics of formal logic, and you ought to be able to explain (and perhaps defend) the connections between formal logic and database technology. And thats what this book is about. What it does is show, through a series of partly independent, partly interrelated essays, just how various crucial aspects of database technology -- some of them very familiar, others maybe less so -- are solidly grounded in formal logic. Overall, the goal is to help you realize the importance of logic in everything you do, and also, I hope, to help you see that logic can be fun.

Nova Science Publishers Inc New Developments in Evolutionary Computation
Book SynopsisA common approach for solving simulation-driven engineering problems is by using metamodel-assisted optimization algorithms, namely, in which a metamodel approximates the computationally expensive simulation and provides predicted values at a lower computational cost. Such algorithms typically generate an initial sample of solutions which are then used to train a preliminary metamodel and to initiate an optimization process. One approach for generating the initial sample is with the design of experiment methods which are statistically oriented, while the more recent search-driven sampling approach invokes a computational intelligence optimizer such as an evolutionary algorithm, and then uses the vectors it generated as the initial sample. This book discusses research and new developments on evolutionary computation.

Technics Publications LLC UML & Data Modeling: A Reconciliation
Book SynopsisHere you will learn how to develop an attractive, easily readable, conceptual, business-oriented entity/relationship model, using a variation on the UML Class Model notation. This book has two audiences: Data modellers (both analysts and database designers) who are convinced that UML has nothing to do with them; and UML experts who don''t realise that architectural data modelling really is different from object modelling (and that the differences are important). David Hay''s objective is to finally bring these two groups together in peace. Here all modellers will receive guidance on how to produce a high quality (that is, readable) entity/relationship model to describe the data architecture of an organisation. The notation involved happens to be the one for class models in the Unified Modelling Language, even though UML was originally developed to support object-oriented design. Designers have a different view of the world from those who develop business-oriented conceptual data models, which means that to use UML for architectural modelling requires some adjustments. These adjustments are described in this book. David Hay is the author of Enterprise Model Patterns: Describing the World, a comprehensive model of a generic enterprise. The diagrams were at various levels of abstraction, and they were all rendered in the slightly modified version of UML Class Diagrams presented here. This book is a handbook to describe how to build models such as these. By way of background, an appendix provides a history of the two groups, revealing the sources of their different attitudes towards the system development process.
