This book contains a refereed collection of revised papers selected from the presentations at the France-Japan Workshop on Object-Based Parallel and Distributed Computation, OBPDC’95, held in Tokyo in June 1995. The 18 full papers included in the book constitute a representative, well-balanced set of timely research contributions to the growing field of object-based concurrent computing. The volume is organized in sections on massively parallel programming languages, distributed programming languages, formalisms, distributed operating systems, dependable distributed computing, and softwa

Alain Briot states that, "The personality of the photographer must be present in the image for an artistic photograph to have value." And in this book he sets out to teach the things that are essential in achieving this goal. Following his successful first book, Mastering Landscape Photography, Briot goes beyond the conventional rules of composition and takes on a fresh, new approach to teaching the art of photography. Based upon his personal experiences as an artist, teacher, and photographer, he opens new doors to the reader-doors leading to new ways of seeing and composing images. Briot

`Why life?’ Questions of this type were for a long time the prerogative of philosophers who left the `how’ question to scientists. Nowadays, Darwin’s successors no longer have any qualms about addressing the `why’ as well as the `how’. Over a century ago, Darwin modestly admitted having ’thrown some light on the origin of species - this mystery of mysteries’. Two major advances in the following decades helped biologists answer many of the questions he left unsolved. The first was the discovery of the laws of heredity, the second that of DNA. Both provi

Cet ouvrage présente différents points de vue sur une même méthode, l’analyse des correspondances. Il montre comment cette méthode s’est développée pour traiter des données de plus en plus variées et complexes et comment elle s’est enrichie au contact d’autres courants de pensée. De plus, il présente un panorama des applications possibles. Cet ouvrage qui rassemble des contributions de différents auteurs présente un exposé à la fois progressif sur le plan didactique et suffisamment vaste pour rassembler en un seul volume des développements théoriques rÃ

This book introduces 2-D wavelets via 1-D continuous wavelet transforms. The authors then describe the underlying mathematics before progressing to more advanced topics such as matrix geometry of wavelet analysis and three-dimensional wavelets. Practical applications and illustrative examples are employed extensively throughout, ensuring the book’s value to engineers, physicists and mathematicians. Two-dimensional wavelets offer a number of advantages over discrete wavelet transforms, in particular, for analysis of real-time signals in such areas as medical imaging, fluid dynamics, shape

This extraordinary volume contains a large part of the mathematical correspondence between A. Grothendieck and J-P. Serre. It forms a vivid introduction to the development of algebraic geometry during the years 1955-1965. During this period, algebraic geometry went through a remarkable transformation, and Grothendieck and Serre were among central figures in this process. In the book, the reader can follow the creation of some of the most important notions of modern mathematics. The letters also reflect the mathematical and political atmosphere of this period. They are supplemented by J-P. S
