This is a lively textbook for an introductory course in numerical methods, MATLAB, and technical computing, with an emphasis on the informed use of mathematical software. The presentation helps readers learn enough about the mathematical functions in MATLAB to use them correctly, appreciate their limitations, and modify them appropriately. The book makes extensive use of computer graphics, including interactive graphical expositions of numerical algorithms. It provides more than 70 M-files, which can be downloaded from the text Web site www.mathworks.com/moler. Many of the numerous exercises involve modifying and extending these programs. The topics covered include an introduction to MATLAB; linear equations; interpolation; zeros and roots; least squ...

The lack of formal semantics of applications and services to be integrated into business processes makes it difficult for software engineers and developers to interconnect heterogeneous applications. Semantic Enterprise Application Integration for Business Processes: Service-Oriented Frameworks provides methods that incorporate and streamline processes that allow employees, decision makers, and industry partners to readily access corporate and customer data independent of where it resides. This advanced reference source provides the latest research findings in the design and development of business processes for academicians, researchers, and practitioners....

In this first comprehensive guide to Internet B2B marketing in emerging markets, the authors introduce their proprietary ebocube ('Emerging Business Online') approach: a comprehensive, applications-oriented method that covers every stage of the marketing process. Using their framework and methodology, business leaders can implement a low-risk, high-reward business model, penetrate the world's fastest-growing markets, and create significant value where it never existed before. The authors begin with an up-to-date introduction to emerging markets, including economic potential, languages, culture, time zones, economies, politics, and Internet/mobile penetration. Next, they review emerging market best practices for branding, distribution, segmentation,...

This text introduces the C programming language using a range of engineering and science applications in the examples and exercises. The book assumes no programming experience and is suitable for an introduction to programming course (using C instead of Fortran or Pascal). Structured programming principles are introduced early and used throughout. The text includes clear explanations and many example programs (using ANSI C) show C as a powerful tool in engineering and science applications. It also includes exercises after each section, common programming error sections, and chapter summaries....
