Overview: After ten years of life restricted to the scientific world of research, stress echocardiography today appears on the clinical stage as a clean and efficient option for diagnostic imaging of myocardial ischemia. At the Institute of Clinical Physiology of Pisa, stress echocardiography has successfully moved from the status of fancy pathophysiological toy to one of practical diagnostic weapon - in spite of the availability of a strong and sophisticated nuclear cardiology department. This textbook stems from a long-standing experience and describes in a systematic fashion the new diagnos

Overview: Deals with Schur Analysis in the quaternionic setting.Contains several new results which cannot be found anywhere else in the literature.Defines and studies the counterpart of Schur functions and Schu.This book defines and examines the counterpart of Schur functions and Schur analysis in the slice hyperholomorphic setting. It is organized into three parts: the first introduces readers to classical Schur analysis, while the second offers background material on quaternions, slice hyperholomorphic functions, and quaternionic functional analysis. The third part represents the core of the

Overview: It is with great pleasure that I am writing the preface for my little book, "Starting with the Unit Circle", in the office of Springer Verlag in Heidel­ berg. This is symbolic of the fact that I have once again joined in the main­ stream of scientific exchange between East and West. Since the establishment of the People‘s Republic of China, I have written "An Introduction to Number Theory" for the young people studying Number Theory: for the young people studying algebra, Prof. Wan Zhe-xian (Wan Che-hsien) and I have written "Classical Groups"; for those studying the theory of functi

Overview: Introduces the usage of semantic technologies.Provides an introduction to the basics of middleware technology and a discussion of ontologies, to help readers who are not familiar with the area.Include.Current middleware solutions, e.g., application servers and Web services, are very complex software products that are hard to tame because of intricacies of distributed systems. Their functionalities have mostly been developed and managed with the help of administration tools and corresponding configuration files, recently in XML. Though this constitutes flexibility for developing and a

Overview: Celebrates the 75th birthday of Hung T. Nguyen.Reflects many of Hung T. Nguyen’s areas of research.Presents state-of-the-art research on Statistical and Fuzzy Approaches to Data ProcessingMainly focusing on processing uncertainty, this book presents state-of-the-art techniques and demonstrates their use in applications to econometrics and other areas. Processing uncertainty is essential, considering that computers – which help us understand real-life processes and make better decisions based on that understanding – get their information from measurements or from expert estimates, nei

Overview: Includes supplementary material: As a result of the open-source movement there is now a great deal of reusable software available in the public domain. This offers significant functionality that commercial software vendors can use in their software projects. Open-source approaches to software development have illustrated that complex, mission critical software can be developed by distributed teams of developers sharing a common goal. Commercial software vendors have an opportunity to both learn from the op- source community as well as leverage that knowledge for the benefit of its co
