Information Theory in 80 Pages
This short and richly illustrated book introduces the essential mathematics required to understand information theory. Originally developed by Claude Shannon in the 1940s, information theory laid the foundations for the digital revolution, and is now an essential tool in telecommunications, genetics, linguistics, brain sciences, and deep space communication. Accessible examples are used to introduce information theory in terms of everyday games like "20 questions" before more advanced topics are explored. Online Matlab and Python computer code provides hands-on experience of information theory in action. Written in an informal style, with a comprehensive glossary, this concise text is an ideal primer for novices who wish to gain a firm grasp of the essential principles of information theory.

Quantum Computing from Colossus to Qubits
The quantum computer is no longer the stuff of science fiction. Pioneering physicists are on the brink of unlocking a new quantum universe which provides a better representation of reality than our everyday experiences and common sense ever could. The birth of quantum computers - which, like Schr繹dinger's famous "dead and alive" cat, rely on entities like electrons, photons, or atoms existing in two states at the same time - is set to turn the computing world on its head. In his fascinating study of this cutting-edge technology, and featuring a new introduction, John Gribbin explores the nature of quantum reality, arguing for a universe of many parallel worlds where "everything is real." Looking back to Alan Turing's work on the Enigma machine and the first electronic computer, Gribbin explains how quantum theory developed to make quantum computers work in practice as well as in principle. He takes us beyond the arena of theoretical physics to explore their practical applications - from machines which learn through "intuition" and trial and error to unhackable laptops and smartphones. And he investigates the potential for this extraordinary science to create a world where communication occurs faster than light and teleportation is possible. This is an exciting insider's look at the new frontier of computer science and its revolutionary implications.

Objective Information Theory
Objective Information Theory (OIT) is proposed to represent and compute the information in a large-scale complex information system with big data in this monograph. To formally analyze, design, develop, and evaluate the information, OIT interprets the information from essential nature, measures the information from mathematical properties, and models the information from concept, logic, and physic. As the exemplified applications, Air Traffic Control System (ATCS) and Smart Court SoSs (System of Systems) are introduced for practical OITs. This Open Access book can be used as a technical reference book in the field of information science and also a reference textbook for senior students and graduate ones in related majors.

Prophets of Computing
When electronic digital computers first appeared after World War II, they appeared as a revolutionary force. Business management, the world of work, administrative life, the nation state, and soon enough everyday life were expected to change dramatically with these machines' use. Ever since, diverse prophecies of computing have continually emerged, through to the present day.As computing spread beyond the US and UK, such prophecies emerged from strikingly different economic, political, and cultural conditions. This volume explores how these expectations differed, assesses unexpected commonalities, and suggests ways to understand the divergences and convergences.This book examines thirteen countries, based on source material in ten different languages--the effort of an international team of scholars. In addition to analyses of debates, political changes, and popular speculations, we also show a wide range of pictorial representations of "the future with computers."

Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2023, which took place in Boston, USA, in January 2023. The 17 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 34 submissions. The contributions deal with program verification, model checking, abstract interpretation, program synthesis, static analysis, type systems, deductive methods, decision procedures, theorem proving, program certification, debugging techniques, program transformation, optimization, and hybrid and cyber-physical systems.
On Monotonicity Testing and the 2-to-2 Games Conjecture
This book discusses two questions in Complexity Theory: the Monotonicity Testing problem and the 2-to-2 Games Conjecture.Monotonicity testing is a problem from the field of property testing, first considered by Goldreich et al. in 2000. The input of the algorithm is a function, and the goal is to design a tester that makes as few queries to the function as possible, accepts monotone functions and rejects far-from monotone functions with a probability close to 1.The first result of this book is an essentially optimal algorithm for this problem. The analysis of the algorithm heavily relies on a novel, directed, and robust analogue of a Boolean isoperimetric inequality of Talagrand from 1993.The probabilistically checkable proofs (PCP) theorem is one of the cornerstones of modern theoretical computer science. One area in which PCPs are essential is the area of hardness of approximation. Therein, the goal is to prove that some optimization problems are hard to solve, even approximately. Many hardness of approximation results were proved using the PCP theorem; however, for some problems optimal results were not obtained. This book touches on some of these problems, and in particular the 2-to-2 games problem and the vertex cover problem.The second result of this book is a proof of the 2-to-2 games conjecture (with imperfect completeness), which implies new hardness of approximation results for problems such as vertex cover and independent set. It also serves as strong evidence towards the unique games conjecture, a notorious related open problem in theoretical computer science. At the core of the proof is a characterization of small sets of vertices in Grassmann graphs whose edge expansion is bounded away from 1.
Role of Project Management Software in the Manufacturing Sector
Academic Paper in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, language: English, abstract: The following research questions were determined to support the research objectives: What are the challenges faced by the manufacturing industries using only conventional Gantt charts and work breakdown structure manufacturing industries in managing and optimization of data? What factors contributed to the development of automated and cloud-based project management software in the manufacturing industry? What is the role of automation in project management software? How has automated and cloud-based project management manufacturing software like Jira and Asana effectively contributed to its role in manufacturing industries ? This study is significantly important from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Theoretically speaking, the findings of this study will review new theories in the existing literature which will help the scholars in further exploring the subject from the manufacturing perspective. Since, the past studies are mostly based on the construction, defence, and service sector and mostly on software development; this study will focus mainly on the implementation of project management in the manufacturing industry with the adoption of modern tools like Jira and Asana in this sector. Alternatively, the empirical investigation in this research could provide a reasonable rather logical overview of the strategies to practitioners and academics for the introduction of APM in the environment of traditional project management in the area of manufacturing which is still under-explored by past researchers. In addition, this research will also guide the project managers with the help of empirical research in identifying the drivers due to which APM has been introduced and the challenges the project managers would face in applying those in the manufacturing industries. This study is aimed to comprehend the role of cloud-based and automated tool
