About this title

Synopsis

This book covers the simulation by distributed parallel computers of massively parallel models of interest in artificial intelligence and optimization, bringing together two major areas of current interest within computer science - distributed parallel processing and massively parallel models in artificial intelligence and optimization. Throughout the nine chapters a series of important massively parallel models of computation are surveyed, including cellular automata, Hopfield neural networks, Bayesian networks, Markov random fields, Boltzmann machines, and other "path-following" neural networks with important applications to the solution of mathematical problems. Emphasis is placed on the dynamic behaviour of these models, underlining the importance of discussing algorithmic and programming techniques for their simulation by parallel computers.

Store Description

We have been selling academic and scholarly books in Cambridge since 1996. Today we occupy an old warehouse on Coldhams Road, adjacent to the railway tracks leading to Ely, not too far from the airport. The site is called Restwell House. We are an internet bookshop, but visitors are very welcome. Some drop off a few boxes of unwanted books, some pick up a book to save on the postage, some just drop by to get to know us, or want to take advantage of the many bargains on our wooden shelves bookshop, which is distinct from the internet stock offered on the web. Our mission has always been to find new homes for the books we are looking after. If we cannot sell them online, we offer them at very low prices to our visitors. We try to give you a serious and dedicated service which is focussed on the individuality of each single book: its condition, its origin, sometimes even its smell. You come to us for real books, not just instances of ISBNs.
