These notes on Analog Simulation have been developed from the experience gained by the Education and Training Department of EAI in presenting intensive short courses in analog computer operation, programming, and applications for nearly a decade.
The objective of these courses has been to provide scientists and engineers with a working knowledge of the analog computer and its uses. They have proven to be most effective when lectures and demonstrations are supplemented with laboratory sessions allowing students to put theory into practice. The solution of problems on an analog computer, using effective and efficient programming techniques and check-out procedures, has proven to be invaluable in gaining familiarity both with the machine and its potential as an engineering tool.
Many of the procedures and techniques described in the notes have been used and found to be effective in EAI Computation Centers throughout the world.
A course in analog computation utilizing these notes could readily meet the requirements of an accredited, one semester, 3-credit-hour university course. A course in differential equations as a prerequisite is desirable.
The wide range of application for the analog computer permits the introduction of actual applications appropriate to courses in all scientific disciplines. The EAI Applications Reference Library is a source of a large number of such studies describing applications in such areas as electronics, chemical processing, aerospace engineering, and life sciences.
These notes represent the combined efforts of a large number of people within the EAI organization. Contribution to the notes and the editing were made by A. I. Katz, 0. Serlin, H. Davidson, and J. J. Kennedy, as well as many others. Many sections in the notes were derived from material generated by the various Departments in the Research and Computation Division of EAI.
The editors, in particular, would like to acknowledge the efforts of the secretarial staff, Helen Lynch, Bette Davis, and Ginny Gafgen in helping organize the typing and production of these notes on a time schedule that was agreed upon by all as being impossible.
- Computational geometry. Algorithms and applications De Berg M.
Computational geometry emerged from the field of algorithms design and analysis in the late 1970s It has grown into a recognized discipline with its own journals, conferences, and a large community of active researchers The success of the field as a research discipline can on the one hand be explained from the beauty of the problems studied and the solutions obtained, and, on the other hand, by the many application domains—computer graphics, geographic information systems (GIS), robotics, and others—in which geometric algorithms play a fundamental role - Mathematics for the аnalysis of аlgorithms Daniel H. Greene, Donald E. Knuth
This monograph is derived from an advanced course in computer science at Stanford University on the analysis of algorithms The course presents examples of the major paradigms used in the precise analysis of algorithms, emphasizing some of the more difficult techniques
