Transactions on Computational Science II


Book Description

The LNCS journal Transactions on Computational Science reflects recent developments in the field of Computational Science, conceiving the field not as a mere ancillary science but rather as an innovative approach supporting many other scientific disciplines. The journal focuses on original high-quality research in the realm of computational science in parallel and distributed environments, encompassing the facilitating theoretical foundations and the applications of large-scale computations and massive data processing. It addresses researchers and practitioners in areas ranging from aerospace to biochemistry, from electronics to geosciences, from mathematics to software architecture, presenting verifiable computational methods, findings and solutions and enabling industrial users to apply techniques of leading-edge, large-scale, high performance computational methods. Transactions on Computational Science II is devoted to the subject of denotational mathematics for computational intelligence. Denotational mathematics, as a counterpart of conventional analytic mathematics, is a category of expressive mathematical structures that deals with high-level mathematical entities beyond numbers and sets, such as abstract objects, complex relations, behavioral information, concepts, knowledge, processes, granules, and systems. This volume includes 12 papers covering the following four important areas: foundations and applications of denotational mathematics; rough and fuzzy set theories; granular computing; and knowledge and information modeling.




Cognitive Information Systems in Management Sciences


Book Description

Cognitive Information Systems in Management Sciences summarizes the body of work in this area, taking an analytical approach to interpreting the data, while also providing an approach that can be used for practical implementation in the fields of computing, economics, and engineering. Using numerous illustrative examples, and following both theoretical and practical results, Dr. Lidia Ogiela discusses the concepts and principles of cognitive information systems, the relationship between intelligent computer data analysis, and how to utilize computational intelligent approaches to enhance information retrieval. Real world implantation use cases round out the book, with valuable scenarios covering management science, computer science, and engineering. Indexing: The books of this series are submitted to EI-Compendex and SCOPUS - Discusses the basic concepts and principles in cognitive information systems, providing 'real-world' implementation examples - Explains the relationship between intelligent computer data analysis and how to utilize computational intelligent approaches to enhance information retrieval - Provides a unified structured approach that can be used to develop information flow in cognitive management systems




Project Management for Healthcare Informatics


Book Description

Through its use of real clinical examples, this book provides an explanation of the project management process tailored for nurses. It first describes, in detail, the project management process along with its relationship to the phases of the project life cycle. Coverage includes the tools available to successfully complete each phase of the project management process and advance the project life cycle. With the aid of case studies and project examples, the book then examines how to apply these principles in the day-to-day work of the nurse, whether manager, staff nurse, educator, researcher, or informatician.




Organizational Aspects of Health Informatics


Book Description

It has become obvious in recent years that successfully introducing major new systems into complex medical organizations requires an effective blend of good technical and organizational skills. The technically best system may be woefully inadequate if its implementation is resisted by people who have low psychological ownership in that system. On the other hand, people with high ownership can make a technically mediocre system function fairly well. ORGANIZATIONAL ASPECTS OF HEALTH INFORMATICS focuses on both the successful strategies for implementation of information systems with medical organizations and also on effective management strategies for the altered organization once the new systems are in place.




Neoteric Developments in Management Science in Engineering


Book Description

Management science in engineering (MSE) is becoming increasingly important in modern society. In particular, the emergence of efficient and innovative management tools has greatly influenced the progress of management science in engineering research. As research is critical to the dissemination of cutting-edge methods, journal evaluation and classification are essential for scientists, researchers, engineers, practitioners, and graduate students. The goal of this book is to identify the major research categories in MSE and to evaluate and classify each MSE journal. This book was compiled through the combined efforts of members of scientific committees (many of whom are editors-in-chief of the most relevant journals), academics, researchers from different countries, and members of professional societies. It will be of interest to scientists, researchers, practitioners, engineers, graduate and advanced undergraduate students in the fields of engineering management, civil engineering, industrial engineering, environmental engineering, energy engineering, information engineering, and agricultural engineering.







Developments in Management Science in Engineering 2017


Book Description

Management science in engineering (MSE) is playing an increasingly important role in modern society. In particular, the development of efficient and innovative managerial tools has significantly influenced the research progress of management science. As research is vital for the propagation of leading-edge methods, journal evaluation and classification are critical for scientists, researchers, engineers, practitioners, and graduate students. This book identifies the main research categories of MSE, and evaluates and classifies each MSE journal. It represents the outcome of joint efforts from scientific board members, research fellows, and members of various professional societies. It is ideal for scientists, researchers, practitioners, engineers, graduate students and upper-level undergraduates in engineering management, civil engineering, industrial engineering, environmental engineering, energy engineering, information engineering, and agricultural engineering.
