This monograph presents the still young, but already large and very active interdisciplinary realm of computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) in a systematic and well-balanced way. Besides technical progress also the cultural, social, legal, psychological and economic aspects of CSCW are discussed. The book makes accessible a wealth of information and culminates in the development and detailed discussion of a "Collaboratory" suitable to fulfil the needs of scientific cooperation in Europe. The book addresses CSCW research and development professionals as well as the general scientist interested in CSCW-based scientific cooperation. The bibliography with its more than 600 entries and the subject index are particularly comprehensive and helpful.

Planning and improving of production systems and manufacturing processes is a most complex task in engineering. In small and medium sized enterprises (SME's) it is usually carried out by a group of enterprise planners from different departments within a planning project. The main issue of this research is to overcome the logical and technical boundaries between the highly-interrelated modelling experts and their specific modelling tools and partial planning models as well as to efficiently coordinate their distributed, cooperative planning tasks. Therefore, a methodical integration concept as well as a groupware-based cooperation concept was developed. Now it is possible to combine the large number of sophisticated modelling tools, factory simulators as well as GPM tools, and to guarantee a seamless planning process. The conceptual ideas were implemented in a prototypical toolbox to show the technical realization of the flexible concepts for integration and cooperation support. (Back cover).

This publication presents the latest innovations and achievements of academic communities on Decision Support Systems (DSS). These advances include theory systems, computer-aided methods, algorithms, techniques and applications related to supporting decision making. The aim is to develop approaches for applying information systems technology to increase the effectiveness of decision making in situations where the computer system can support and enhance human judgements in the performance of tasks that have elements which cannot be specified in advance. Also it is intended to improve ways of synthesizing and applying relevant work from resource disciplines to practical implementation of systems that enhance decision support capability. The resource disciplines include: information technology, artificial intelligence, cognitive psychology, decision theory, organizational theory, operations research and modeling. Researchers come from the Operational Research area but also from Decision Theory, Multicriteria Decision Making methodologies, Fuzzy sets and modeling tools. Based on the introduction of Information and Communication Technologies in organizations, the decisional process is evolving from a mono actor to a multi actor situation in which cooperation is a way to make the decision.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV '95, held in Liège, Belgium in July 1995. The book contains the 31 refereed full research papers selected for presentation at CAV '95 as well as abstracts or full papers of the three invited presentations. Originally oriented towards finite-state concurrent systems, CAV now covers all styles of verification approaches and a variety of application areas. The papers included range from theoretical issues to concrete applications with a certain emphasis on verification tools and the algorithms and techniques needed for their implementations. Beyond finite-state systems, real-time systems and hybrid systems are an important part of the conference.

This book contains revised versions of papers invited for presentation at the International Workshop on Logic and Computational Complexity, LCC '94, held in Indianapolis, IN in October 1994. The synergy between logic and computational complexity has gained importance and vigor in recent years, cutting across many areas. The 25 revised full papers in this book contributed by internationally outstanding researchers document the state-of-the-art in this interdisciplinary field of growing interest; they are presented in sections on foundational issues, applicative and proof-theoretic complexity, complexity of proofs, computational complexity of functionals, complexity and model theory, and finite model theory.

Rapid One-of-a-kind Product Development discusses research in the development of new enabling technologies for small and medium companies. Scientific advancements presented include a novel product data modelling scheme to model product design, manufacturability and knowledge under a common data object; customised product development in a distributed environment; and new adaptive scheduling methods for the optimal production of a wide variety of customised products, taking into consideration all of the possible changes from customers and the uncertainties in manufacturing. The book also includes research towards a computer aided customer interface, which allows customer requirements and changes to be processed and integrated with technical designs in real time; adaptive and concurrent CAD methods and algorithms; and product modelling and system integration technologies. The reader will learn how to: • translate customer requirements to technical attributes; • develop new and innovative products to meet customer requirements and expectations; • evaluate and optimise a project design; • design production systems and use them efficiently; and • manage a variety of customised products. Rapid One-of-a-kind Product Development demonstrates how to develop new methods, tools and algorithms to address the problems in a mass customisation environment. It is a valuable source of information for researchers and engineers in the fields of design and manufacturing.

Many parallel computer architectures are especially suited for particular classes of applications. However, there are only a few parallel architectures equally well suited for standard programs. Much effort is invested into research in compiler techniques to make programming parallel machines easier. This book presents methods for automatic parallelization, so that programs need not to be tailored for specific architectures; here the focus is on fine-grain parallelism, offered by most new microprocessor architectures. The book addresses compiler writers, computer architects, and students by demonstrating the manifold complex relationships between architecture and compiler technology.
