This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Trust and Trustworthy Computing, TRUST 2013, held in London, UK, in June 2013. There is a technical and a socio-economic track. The full papers presented, 14 and 5 respectively, were carefully reviewed from 39 in the technical track and 14 in the socio-economic track. Also included are 5 abstracts describing ongoing research. On the technical track the papers deal with issues such as key management, hypervisor usage, information flow analysis, trust in network measurement, random number generators, case studies that evaluate trust-based methods in practice, simulation environments for trusted platform modules, trust in applications running on mobile devices, trust across platform. Papers on the socio-economic track investigated, how trust is managed and perceived in online environments, and how the disclosure of personal data is perceived; and some papers probed trust issues across generations of users and for groups with special needs.

High Performance Computing on Vector Systems 2008


Free Download Sabine Roller, Katharina Benkert, Martin Galle, "High Performance Computing on Vector Systems 2008"
English | 2008 | pages: 238 | ISBN: 3540858687 | PDF | 6,4 mb
This book covers the results obtained in the Tera op Workbench project during a four years period from 2004 to 2008. The Tera op Workbench project is a colla- ration betweenthe High PerformanceComputingCenter Stuttgart (HLRS) and NEC Deutschland GmbH (NEC-HPCE) to support users to achieve their research goals using high performance computing. The Tera op Workbench supports users of the HLRS systems to enable and – cilitate leading edge scienti c research. This is achieved by optimizing their codes and improving the process work ow which results from the integration of diff- ent modules into a "hybrid vector system". The assessment and demonstration of industrial relevance is another goal of the cooperation. The Tera op Workbench project consists of numerous individual codes, grouped together by application area and developed and maintained by researchers or c- mercial organizations. Within the project, several of the codes have shown the ab- ity to reach beyond the TFlop/s threshold of sustained performance. This created the possibility for new science and a deeper understanding of the underlying physics. The papers in this book demonstrate the value of the project for different scienti c areas.

Guide to Computing for Expressive Music Performance


Free Download Guide to Computing for Expressive Music Performance By Alexis Kirke, Eduardo R. Miranda (auth.), Alexis Kirke, Eduardo R. Miranda (eds.)
2013 | 262 Pages | ISBN: 1447141229 | PDF | 5 MB
This book discusses all aspects of computing for expressive performance, from the history of CSEMPs to the very latest research, in addition to discussing the fundamental ideas, and key issues and directions for future research. Topics and features: includes review questions at the end of each chapter; presents a survey of systems for real-time interactive control of automatic expressive music performance, including simulated conducting systems; examines two systems in detail, YQX and IMAP, each providing an example of a very different approach; introduces techniques for synthesizing expressive non-piano performances; addresses the challenges found in polyphonic music expression, from a statistical modelling point of view; discusses the automated analysis of musical structure, and the evaluation of CSEMPs; describes the emerging field of embodied expressive musical performance, devoted to building robots that can expressively perform music with traditional instruments.
