An introduction to Entity-Relationship-Modeling, showing how the technique can be applied to interface issues. The book explains those aspects of entity-relationship modeling which are relevant to ERMIAs, and presents the extensions to the notation that are necessary for modeling interfaces. Bridging the gap in the development of interactive systems, ERMIA provides a set of concepts which can be used equally easily by software developers and i...

Here, the authors propose a method for the formal development of parallel programs - or multiprograms as they prefer to call them. They accomplish this with a minimum of formal gear, i.e. with the predicate calculus and the well- established theory of Owicki and Gries. They show that the Owicki/Gries theory can be effectively put to work for the formal development of multiprograms, regardless of whether these algorithms are distributed or not.

Now, for the first time, there is a single reference work that documents the history of human rights worldwide, clearly explains each article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and examines the major human rights issues facing the world today. Comprehensive in scope, Human Rights covers a broad range of human rights issues that are central to an understanding of world history and current affairs.

In Monsters and Revolutionaries Françoise Vergès analyzes the complex relationship between the colonizer and colonized on the Indian Ocean island of Réunion. Through novels, iconography, and texts from various disciplines including law, medicine, and psychology, Vergès constructs a political and cultural history of the island’s relations with France. Woven throughout is Vergès’s own family history, which is intimately tied to the history of Ré...

Looks at the development of Social Pyschology through the personal histories of its most prominent living scholars.

Provides coherent guidelines to help clinicians, researchers, and students identify, conceptualize, and treat problems in emotional behavior.
