It has also provided contributors with a medium in which they can explore their subjects in greater depth and breadth than journal articles usually allow. As a result, many articles have become standard references that continue to be of sugnificant, lasting value in this rapidly expanding field. In-depth surveys and tutorials on new computer technologyWell-known authors and researchers in the fieldExtensive bibliographies with most chaptersMany of the volumes are devoted to single themes or subfields of computer science},

	abstract = {The field of bioinformatics and computational biology arose due to the need to apply techniques from computer science, statistics, informatics, and applied mathematics to solve biological problems. Scientists have been trying to study biology at a molecular level using techniques derived from biochemistry, biophysics, and genetics. Progress has greatly accelerated with the discovery of fast and inexpensive automated DNA sequencing techniques. As the genomes of more and more organisms are sequenced and assembled, scientists are discovering many useful facts by tracing the evolution of organisms by measuring changes in their DNA, rather than through physical characteristics alone. This has led to rapid growth in the related fields of phylogenetics, the study of evolutionary relatedness among various groups of organisms, and comparative genomics, the study of the correspondence between genes and other genomic features in different organisms. Comparing the genomes of organisms has allowed researchers to better understand the features and functions of DNA in individual organisms, as well as provide insights into how organisms evolve over time. The first four chapters of this book focus on algorithms for comparing the genomes of different organisms. Possible concrete applications include identifying the basis for genetic diseases and tracking the development and spread of different forms of Avian flu. As researchers begin to better understand the function of DNA, attention has begun shifting towards the actual proteins produced by DNA. The final two chapters explore proteomic techniques for analyzing proteins directly to identify their presence and understand their physical structure.- Written by active PhD researchers in computational biology and bioinformatics},

	abstract = {The field of multidimensional data structures is large and growing very quickly. Here, for the first time, is a thorough treatment of multidimensional point data, object and image-based representations, intervals and small rectangles, and high-dimensional datasets. The book includes a thorough introduction; a comprehensive survey to spatial and multidimensional data structures and algorithms; and implementation details for the most useful data structures. Along with the hundreds of worked exercises and hundreds of illustrations, the result is an excellent and valuable reference tool for professionals in many areas, including computer graphics, databases, geographic information systems (GIS), game programming, image processing, pattern recognition, solid modeling, similarity retrieval, and VLSI design. Award Winner in 2006 "Best Book" competition in Professional and Scholarly Publishing from the Association of American Publishers. Morgan Kaufmann would like to congratulate Hanan Samet on receiving the UCGIS 2009 Research Award! Read the announcement here: http://www.ucgis.org/summer2009/researchaward.htm * First comprehensive work on multidimensional data structures available, a thorough and authoritative treatment. * An algorithmic rather than mathematical approach, with a liberal use of examples that allows the readers to easily see the possible implementation and use. * Each section includes a large number of exercises and solutions to self-test and confirm the reader{\textquoteright}s understanding and suggest future directions. * Written by a well-known authority in the area of spatial data structures who has made many significant contributions to the field.

	publisher = {Springer},
	organization = {Springer},
	abstract = {The importance of properly selecting testing techniques is widely accepted in the software engineering community today. However, there are chiefly two reasons why the selections now made by software developers are difficult to evaluate as correct. First, there are several techniques with which the average developer is unfamiliar, often leaving testers with limited knowledge of all the techniques currently available. Second, the available information regarding the different testing techniques is primarily procedure (focused on how to use the technique), rather than pragmatic (focused on the effect and appropriateness of using the technique). The problem addressed in this book is aimed at improving software testing technique selection.Identifying Relevant Information for Testing Technique Selection: An Instantiated Characterization Schema will train its readers how to use the conceptual tool presented here in various ways. Developers will improve their testing technique selection process by systematically and objectively selecting the testing techniques for a software project. Developers will also build a repository containing their own experience with the application of various software testing techniques. Researchers will focus their research on the relevant aspects of testing technique when creating it, and when comparing different techniques.Identifying Relevant Information for Testing Technique Selection: An Instantiated Characterization Schema is designed to meet the needs of a professional audience in software engineering. This book is also suitable for graduate-level students in computer science and engineering.},
