Presenting interdisciplinary research at the forefront of present advances in information technologies and their foundations, Scientific Applications of Language Methods is a multi-author volume containing pieces of work (either original research or surveys) exemplifying the application of formal language tools in several fields, including logic and discrete mathematics, natural language processing, artificial intelligence, natural computing and bioinformatics.

Experimental Methods in Language Acquisition Research provides students and researchers interested in language acquisition with comprehensible and practical information on the most frequently used methods in language acquisition research. It includes contributions on first and child/adult second language learners, language-impaired children, and on the acquisition of both spoken and signed language. Part I discusses specific experimental methods, explaining the rationale behind each one, and providing an overview of potential participants, the procedure and data-analysis, as well as advantages and disadvantages and dos and don’ts. Part II focuses on comparisons across groups, addressing the theoretical, applied and methodological issues involved in such comparative work. This book will not only be of use to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, but also to any scholars wishing to learn more about a particular research method. It is suitable as a textbook in postgraduate programs in the fields of linguistics, education and psychology.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed papers of the 16th International Conference on Implementation and Application of Automata, CIAA 2011, held in Blois, France, in July 2011. The 20 revised full papers together with 4 short papers were carefully selected from 38 submissions. The papers cover various topics such as applications of automata in computer-aided verification; natural language processing; pattern matching, data storage and retrieval; document engineering and bioinformatics as well as foundational work on automata theory.

C Language Is The Popular Tool Used To Write Programs For Numerical Methods. Because Of The Importance Of Numerical Methods In Scientific Industrial And Social Research.C Language And Numerical Methods Is Taught Almost In All Graduate And Postgraduate Programs Of Engineering As Well As Science. In This Book, The Structures Of C Language Which Are Essential To Develop Numerical Methods Programs Are First Introduced In Chapters 1 To 7. These Concepts Are Explained With Appropriate Examples In A Simple Style. The Rest Of The Book Is Devoted For Numerical Methods. In Each Of The Topic On Numerical Methods, The Subject Is Presented In Four Steps, Namely, Theory, Numerical Examples And Solved Problems, Algorithms And Complete C Program With Computer Output Sheets. In Each Of These Chapters, A Number Of Solved Problems And Review Questions Are Given As A Drill Work On The Subject. In Appendix The Answers To Some Of The Review Questions Are Given.
