Overview: Computer systems that analyze images are critical to a widevariety of applications such as visual inspections systems for variousmanufacturing processes, remote sensing of the environment fromspace-borne imaging platforms, and automatic diagnosis from X-rays andother medical imaging sources. Professor Azriel Rosenfeld, the founderof the field of digital image analysis, made fundamental contributionsto a wide variety of problems in image processing, pattern recognitionand computer vision. Professor Rosenfeld‘s previous students,postdoctoral scientists, and colleagues illustrate in .Fo

Overview: The main characteristics of the real-world decision-making problems facing humans today are multidimensional and have multiple objectives including eco­ nomic, environmental, social, and technical ones. Hence, it seems natural that the consideration of many objectives in the actual decision-making process re­ quires multiobjective approaches rather than single-objective. One ofthe major systems-analytic multiobjective approaches to decision-making under constraints is multiobjective optimization as a generalization of traditional single-objective optimization. Although multiobjective

Overview: "Electromagnetic theory is a peculiar subject. The peculiarity resides not so much in the stratification - superposed layers of electrostatics. magnetostatics. steady currents and time-varying fields - as in the failure that has attended all attempts to weld these layers into a logical whole. The lowest layer. electrostatics. defines certain concepts. such as E. D, ~, in a way that is generally satisfactory only for the static case. Yet the attempt is made to force these specialised definitions into the higher strata, with ad hoc modifications when necessary. The student, in looking

Overview: The tendency of fungi pathogenic for humans to have shapes in tissue distinct from their usual saprophytic morphologies has fascinated the pathologist and medical mycologist for almost a century. A primary rea­ son for this fascination is the possibility that fungal duality of form, or dimorphism, may be an important virulence factor that allows the zoo­ pathogenic fungus to survive host defenses. A second reason relates to the desire to gain basic insights into the regulation of cellular develop­ ment and morphogenesis among the etiological agents of human mycoses. Many excellent tr
