In many recent application situations, however, the size of the input data is too large to fit within memory.Models of Computation for Big Data, covers mathematical models for developing such algorithms, which has its roots in the study of big data that occur often in various applications.

Here is an interdisciplinary study of ontology engineering and its application in urban development projects, which includes case studies of the development of ontologies for urban mobility, urban morphological processes, road systems, and cultural heritage.

Details research in areas such as ontology design for information integration, metadata generation and management, and representation and management of distributed ontologies. This title provides decision support on the use of novel technologies, information about potential problems, and guidelines for the application of existing technologies.

The purpose of this book is to review the recent advances in E-health technologies and applications.

This book explores an approach to social robotics based solely on autonomous unsupervised techniques and positions it within a structured exposition of related research in psychology, neuroscience, HRI, and data mining.

In addressing the question of how far it is possible to go in knowledge representation and reasoning through graphs, the authors cover basic conceptual graphs, computational aspects, and kernel extensions. The basic mathematical notions are summarized.

Web-based Support Systems (WSS) are an emerging multidisciplinary research area in which one studies the support of human activities with the Web as the common platform,mediumandinterface.TheInternetaffectseveryaspectofourmodernlife.

In the study of social networks, social network analysis makes an interesting interdisciplinary research area, where computer scientists and sociologists bring their competence to a level that will enable them to meet the challenges of this fast-developing field.

Section 2 explores other research and development projects that attempt to exploit the power of contemporary ICT systems to support Law Enforcement Agencies in many aspects of their work including investigations, data analysis and presentation, identification, training and crime prevention.

This book is the outcome of a decade's research into a speci?c architecture and associated learning mechanism for an arti?cial neural network: the - chitecture involves negative feedback and the learning mechanism is simple Hebbian learning.

This book provides state-of-the-art e-learning networked environments and architectures carried out over the last few years from a knowledge management perspective.

Space support in databases poses new challenges in every part of a database management system & the capability of spatial support in the physical layer is considered very important.

This monograph focuses on exploring game theoretic modeling and mechanism design for problem solving in Internet and network economics. For the first time, the main theoretical issues and applications of mechanism design are bound together in a single text.

Probabilistic Modelling in Bioinformatics and Medical Informatics has been written for researchers and students in statistics, machine learning, and the biological sciences. All three fields - the methodology of probabilistic modeling, bioinformatics, and medical informatics - are evolving very quickly.

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of meta-programming, focusing on insights of meta-programming techniques, heterogeneous meta-program development processes in the context of model-driven, feature-based and transformative approaches.

The European Commission facilitates and supports applied research in knowledge management through its Information Society Technologies (1ST) programme, a major theme of research and technological development within the European Union's Research and Technology Development Framework Programme.

This volume demonstrates the practical relevance and applicability of self-organization. It includes case studies that examine applications of self-organization, identify causes for their successes, and propose guiding principles for future developments.

This timely text/reference explores the business and technical issues involved in the management of information systems in the era of big data and beyond. describes the key technologies involved in information systems in general and big data in particular, placing these technologies in an historic context;

The motivation of this edited book is to generate an understanding about information, related concepts and the roles they play in the modern, technology permeated world. In order to achieve our goal, we observe how information is understood in domains, such as cosmology, physics, biology, neuroscience, computer science, artificial intelligence, the Internet, big data, information society, or philosophy. Together, these observations form an integrated view so that readers can better understand this exciting building-block of modern-day society.On the surface, information is a relatively straightforward and intuitive concept. Underneath, however, information is a relatively versatile and mysterious entity. For instance, the way a physicist looks at information is not necessarily the same way as that of a biologist, a neuroscientist, a computer scientist, or a philosopher. Actually, when it comes to information, it is common that each field has its domain specific views, motivations, interpretations, definitions, methods, technologies, and challenges.With contributions by authors from a wide range of backgrounds, Understanding Information: From the Big Bang to Big Data will appeal to readers interested in the impact of ¿information¿ on modern-day life from a variety of perspectives.

II Challenges in Data Mapping Part II deals with one of the most challenging tasks in Interactive Visualization, mapping and teasing out information from large complex datasets and generating visual representations.

Clear and concise explanations to understand the learning paradigms. Chapters written by leading world experts.
