This book consists of a selection of extended versions of presentations made in two symposia on intelligent distributed surveillance systems (IDSS) and brings together the latest developments in the field.

This book describes a novel general entire-domain method for the analysis of metallic antennas and scatterers which enables the solution of a very wide class of problems to be obtained using computers of relatively modest capability.

Presenting a detailed framework as well as comparative case studies for security protection, data integrity, privacy preservation, scalability, and healthcare legislation, this book covers state of the art research and addresses privacy and security methods and technologies for EHRs.

This book discusses innovative ideas in the design, modelling, implementation, and optimization of hardware platforms for neural networks. The book provides an overview of this emerging field, from principles to applications, for researchers, postgraduate students and engineers who work on learning-based services and hardware platforms.

This handbook introduces a variety of concepts in discrete mathematics and mathematical modeling for languages and computation. The authors pay special attention to the implementation of mathematical concepts to explain clearly how to encode them in computational practice. All computer programs are written in C#.
