Molecular clusters have many key uses ranging from novel fuel and material research to computational biology applications, however, they are not easily predictable. Modeling their behavior requires unique computational techniques. Rather than cover every marginally feasible method, this book discusses only those shown to be the most successful, such as the path integral methods in statistical mechanics and the diffusion Monte Carlo approach. W...

The cutting-edge development of using a computational design approach as a means of engineering proteins with novel functions has led to widespread usage of computational analysis in protein engineering at large. However, because the structure and function of protein molecules are coupled at the molecular level, many critical questions are left unanswered and many of the intricate design rules unclear. This book furthers understanding in this ...

In Cardiovascular Imaging the authors deal systematically with the main imaging techniques available to clinical cardiologists: nuclear imaging, echocardiography, computerized tomography and magnetic-resonance imaging. Following a brief overview of non-invasive cardiac imaging and the stress modalities used to detect coronary disease, a mainly case-based chapter is devoted to each of the imaging techniques in turn. The final chapter takes a lo...

The Monte Carlo method is now acknowledged as being one of the most robust tools for a range of applications in finance, from option pricing to risk management and optimization. One of the best languages for the development of Monte Carlo applications and frameworks is C++, an object-oriented and generic programming language which is also an industry standard. This is one of the first books that describe all the steps that are needed in order...

About a month after that demonstration, I happened to travel near the area in question. Along the way, I noticed a small group of people standing around a big yellow loader on a building lot that h...
