Models of Neural Networks II: Temporal Aspects of Coding and Information.. .
New New. Gift quality. Slightest shelf wear does not detract. Not remainder marked. ; 031019c15; The theory of neural nets has two new paradigms: information coding through coherent firing of the neurons and structural feedback. As compared to traditional neural nets, spiking neurons provide an extra degree of freedom: time; this degree of freedom is realized by a coherent spiking of extensively many neurons in the network, a nonlinear phenomenon. The other paradigm, feedback, is a dominant feature of the structural organization of the brain. This volume provides an in-depth analysis of both paradigms starting with an extensive introduction to the ideas used in the subsequent chapters. In addition, one finds a detailed discussion of salient features such as coherent oscillations and their detection, associative binding and segregation, Hebbian learning, and sensory computations in the visual and olfactory cortex. The style and level of this book make it particularly useful for advanced students and researchers looking for an accessible survey of today's theory of neuronal networks.

Secure pages, clean and unmarkedIncludes -- Overview; the Principal Subprocess; the Lexical Scan; Data-directed Parsing Methods; Rigorous Results concerning the principal syntactic analysis methods; Optimization methods for algebraic languages;Special Purpose Languages -- LISP and SNOBOL; the Self-Compiling compiler; BIBLIOGRAPHY;Appendix -- a bibliography of formal language theory; Industrial compiler practice; Comparative figures for various compilersJohn Cocke, IBM Fellow (1925-2002) --' Over his lifetime as a scientist, Dr. John Cocke made unique and creative contributions to information technology through his innovative developments in high performance system design. His expertise in achieving high performance for a broad range of scientific applications led to remarkable advances in compiler design and machine architecture that culminated in his invention of the Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) --- which profoundly affected the broad field of information technology. RISC is the basis for a Unix systems market...'His tenure at IBM spanned an amazing time 1956 to 1992,] said Peter Capek, Cocke's colleague at IBM and close friend. 'His career was unusual in its breadth. He was known for his work in computer architecture, but he was interested in everything -- circuits, storage, compilers -- any technology that could advance the state of the art.' Cocke was a founder and key innovator of the technology of compiler optimization..' (IBM website)The first RISC Machine was developed as part of the 801 Minicomputer Project. Cocke contributed many detailed innovations in the 801 processor and associated optimizing PL.8 compiler, which was a redesign of the PL/1 compiler. The PL.8 compiler contained the first full implementation of Cocke's earlier 'classical' optimization technologies as well as new technologies needed for RISC.Among his many achievements, Cocke was named an IBM Fellow in 1972; he won the Turing award in 1987. A legend in the computer architecture community, John Cocke has been involved in the design of several machines that have made a tremendous impact on current processor design, including the IBM Stretch; the Advanced Computer System (ACS); and the 801, RS/6000, and PowerPC processors.

A Primer of ALGOL 60 Programming, with a Report on the Algorithmic Language ALGOL 60
Publisher: Academic Press NY 1962, third printing 1966; 114 pages, index.
Fair condition hardcover in Good green dustjacket and clear acetate glassine jacket protector; jacket chipped and edgeworn. Binding is sound and secure, pages underlined throughout and margins annotated. APIC Studies in Data Processing, volume 2. 'Algol is a language which (is) being developed with the aim of describing computer processes. This language is defined so exactly that an ALGOL description of a computer process is sufficient for a computer to perform its actual execution. ALGOL 60 should bring the enormous potential of modern automatic computer machines within the reach of a large group of potential users. This primer has been written in order to ease the problem of leraning ALGOL 60...' (from the jacket flap)

XML POCKET REFERENCE
Publisher: O'Reilly.
Very Good Second Edition Softcover Pages bright/unmarked. Spine uncreased. Cover lightly curled; like new otherwise. Not ex-library. Not remainder marked. ; 2nd Edition; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 96 pages; 060111c; XML, the Extensible Markup Language, is the next-generation markup language for the Web. It provides a more structured (and therefore more powerful) medium than HTML, allowing you to define new document types and stylesheets as needed. Although the generic tags of HTML are sufficient for everyday text, XML gives you a way to add rich, well-defined markup to electronic documents. The XML Pocket Reference is both a handy introduction to XML terminology and syntax, and a quick reference to XML instructions, attributes, entities, and datatypes. Although XML itself is complex, its basic concepts are simple. This small book combines a perfect tutorial for learning the basics of XML with a reference to the XML and XSL specifications. The new edition introduces information on XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) and Xpath.

Some slight shelfwear to jacket front; rear of jacket small piece of clear tape lower panel fold, and upper corner bump. Binding is secure and sound, pages clean and unmarked'Simple easy to follow guide to implementing Mouse, a language for small microcomputers. It is complete with details for the construction of an interpreter for Mouse, demonstrating how even a language with high-level features can be implemented with a minimum of effort. A descendent of a language originally designed for a DEC PDP-8 minicomputer with 4096 12-bit words of memory, Mouse offers powerful features... and can be implemented on a microprocessor with as little as 4K bytes of memory...' (from the jacket flap) Contents include -- The Mouse Interpreter -- compile or interpret; basic principles; Expressions - numbers, epressions, input and output, extensions; Variables - name, address and contents; assignment and dereferencing; idioms; Control Structures - conditional expressions; decisions; loops; implementing loops; Arrays and Pointers; Macros - calls, definitions, parameters, local variables, passing parameters, recursive macros etc; Alternatives and Extensions - character processing, tracing, global variables, control structures, space allocation, Mouse as a Device Controller, interactive Mouse; Example Programs - a general test program; Tower of Hanoi; Quicksort; Expression evaluation; MacDonald's Farm; A Mouse Interpreter in Pascal; A Mouse Interpreter in Assembly Language; Summary of synta and semantics (additional pictures available)

Publisher: Macdonald/Elsevier, London & NY, 1972; 112 pages, Index.
Very Good hardcover in very good white dustjacket with blue illustration of folded papertape on front; one in the series of Macdonald/Elsevier Computer Monographs. Lower front flap of jacket is priceclipped; light edgewear and rubbing. Binding is sound and secure, pages clean and unmarkedContents include -- Standard Functions, using a LISP system, Constructing Functions, mathematical logic in LISP, parameters, list-processing functions, recursive functions, sublists and recursions, dot notation, etc; Constructing Programs - list processing programs, recursive programs, grouping functions, evalutaion function, programs as data, input-output etc; Further TOpics - compiling, machine-dependent features of LISP, garbage collection, miscellaneous topics etc. Each Section contains Exercises with answers at rear. References and Index. LISP is a programming language developed by John McCarthy and his students while at MIT, circa 1960; it was 'the most important of the list processing languages; and may be characterised as a functional language, a symbolic language, a list processing language, a recursive language, and a logical language (from the jacket flap)
