Paperback. N. Metropolis, MIT Press Ltd. The transition from serial to parallel computing in which many operations are performed simultaneously and at tremendous speed, marks a new era in computation. These original essays explore the emerging modalities and potential impact of this technological revolution. Daniel Hillis, inven…tor of the superfast Connection Machine (R), provides a clear explanation of massively parallel computing. The essays that follow investigate the rich possibilities, as well as the constraints, that parallel computation holds for the future. These possibilities include its tremendous potential for simulating currently intractable physical processes and for solving "monster" scientific problems (involving new algorithms and ways of thinking about problem solving that will change the way we think about the world), and its use in the neural sciences (where the biological model for parallel computation is the brain). Essays also address the gap between the promise of this new technology and our current educational system and look at America's technological agenda for the 1990s. Daniel Hillis is Chief Scientist and James Bailey is Director of Marketing, both at Thinking Machines Corporation.Selected Essays: Preface, Stephen R. Graubard.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 1st Edition. SURVEYS IN APPLIED MATHEMATICS: Essays Dedicated to S.M. Ulam edited by Nicholas Constantine Metropolis, Steven A. Orszag and Gian-Carlo Rota presented at the First Los Alamos Symposium on Mathematics in the Natural Sciences (1976 Hardcover without Dust Jacket) Surveys in Appli…ed Mathematics: Essays Dedicated to S.M. Ulam covers the proceedings of the First Los Alamos Symposium on Mathematics in the Natural Sciences. The book focuses on the processes, principles, methodologies, and applications of mathematics in the natural sciences. The book begins with information on the role of applied mathematics, shape of a curve, and biased versus unbiased estimation. This collection was edited by three mathematicians: Nicholas Constantine Metropolis of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, Steven A. Orszag of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, and Gian Carlo Rota of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 22 authors contributed to the 18 papers presented. Discussions focus on the James-Stein estimator, automorphic forms and Poincaré series, Poincaré metrics, Schottky space and augmented Schottky space, and Schottky groups and Riemann surfaces. The text then examines algorithms, Whitney numbers of geometric lattices, and continued fraction expansion of algebraic numbers. The book takes a look at bifurcations in reaction-diffusion problems, survey of some finite element methods proposed for treating the Dirichlet problem, and mathematics of quantum fields. Topics include Dirichlet problem, chemical waves and reaction-diffusion equations, and bifurcation theorems. The text then ponders on almost periodic behavior of nonlinear waves, turbulence theory, and renormalization group methods. The selection is a valuable source of information for mathematicians and researchers interested in applied mathematics. xv + 297pp. Hardcover has navy cloth boards with silver lettering and has no DJ. This copy retired from a Public University Library. Has the usual ink-stamps, pastings and shelving info recorded on & in copy, many marked out with permanent ink marker. Careful handling evidenced by square corners and lack of external wear. Internal text is tight, clean, and unmarked (except by library ownership.) Copyright 1976. Printed in U.S.A. Implied this book is part of a series titled: "Surveys in applied mathematics," of which this title is the only volume. 1976 on title page indicates this copy is from a 1976 printing of the 1st edition. (Likely it was the first printing.) ISBN: 0-12-492150-7. LCCN: 76-43107. No MSR. Thanks for looking. Prior Owner Name No Value.
