LogiQL is a new state-of-the-art programming language based on Datalog. It can be used to build applications that combine transactional, analytical, graph, probabilistic, and mathematical programming. LogiQL makes it possible to build hybrid applications that previously required multiple programming languages and databases. In this first book to cover LogiQL, the authors explain how to design, implement, and query deductive databases using this new programming language. LogiQLs declarative approach enables complex data structures and business rules to be simply specified and then automatically executed. It is especially suited to business applications requiring complex rules to be implemented efficiently, for example predictive analytics and supply ...

Simulation is a widely used mechanism for validating the theoretical models of networking and communication systems. Although the claims made based on simulations are considered to be reliable, how reliable they really are is best determined with real-world implementation trials.Simulation Technologies in Networking and Communications: Selecting the Best Tool for the Test addresses the spectrum of issues regarding the different mechanisms related to simulation technologies in networking and communications fields. Focusing on the practice of simulation testing instead of the theory, it presents the work of more than 50 experts from around the world. Considers superefficient Monte Carlo simulations Describes how to simulate and evaluate multicast rout...

This is volume 1 of the two-volume set Soft Computing and Its Applications. This volume explains the primary tools of soft computing as well as provides an abundance of working examples and detailed design studies. The book starts with coverage of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic and their various approaches to fuzzy reasoning. Precisely speaking, this book provides a platform for handling different kinds of uncertainties of real-life problems. It introduces the reader to the topic of rough sets. This book's companion volume, Volume 2: Fuzzy Reasoning and Fuzzy Control, will move forward from here to discuss several advanced features of soft computing and application methodologies. Discusses the present state of art of soft computin. Includes the existing ...

This is volume 2 of the two-volume Soft Computing and Its Applications. This volume discusses several advanced features of soft computing and hybrid methodologies. This new book essentially contains the advanced features of soft computing and different hybrid methodologies for soft computing. The book contains an abundance of examples and detailed design studies. The tool soft computing can be a landmark paradigm of computation with cognition that directly or indirectly tries to replicate the rationality of human beings. The book explains several advanced features of soft computing, such as cognitive maps, complex valued fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic, quantum fuzzy sets and quantum fuzzy logic, and rough sets and hybrid methods that combine neural net ...
