Computing Boolean operations (Booleans) of 3D polyhedra/meshes is a basic and essential task in many domains, such as computational geometry, computer-aided design, and constructive solid geometry.
Given the interdisciplinary nature of the topics and a moderate prerequisite for the reader, this book should be of interest to a broad audience of quantitative researchers such as computational biologists, computer scientists, econometricians, engineers, probabilists, and statisticians.
Nowadays, cloud-computing paradigm can offer any conceivable form of services, such as computational resources for high performance computing applications, web services, social networking, and telecommunications services.
Material is presented on computer science issues such as computational complexity and database queries, with additional coverage of introductory material such as sets.
Many data and compute intensive Grid applications, such as computational astrophysics, may be able to benefit from networking supported by dynamically provisioned lightpaths.
Can we generate tools specialized for particular domains such as computational biologiy?
I also don't want to criticise the use of what you call alternative methods, such as computational neuroscience, and non-invasive brain imaging techniques.
Very important aspects such as computational complexity and effects of poor image quality are often neglected.
They may find interesting applications in areas such as computational biology, process control or robotics.
However, there are still some problems, such as computational efficiency, organizational memory accumulation.
Furthermore, some of these approaches can be employed in other applications, such as computational biology and data mining.
