Abstract

From the Publisher:Imprecise and Approximate Computation is a collection of chapters which chart the current state of the art in imprecise and approximate computation. Real-time systems are now used in a wide variety of applications including space systems defense systems, process control and signal processing. The concept of imprecise and approximate computations can be utilized in a wide variety of application areas, including signal processing, machine vision, databases, networking, and dependability in real-time systems. The book not only describes research results already obtained, but also discusses directions for further research. Imprecise and Approximate Computation is useful to practitioners interested in building dynamic real-time systems, which must deal safely with resource unavailability. Imprecise and approximate computation has a variety of applications in systems where resource limitations and the requirements of continuous system operation create situations where sometimes computations cannot be carried through to the desired completion. Imprecise and Approximate Computation is of special interest to researchers who wish to familiarize themselves with the current accomplishments in this area, with a view to extending the research results. This book may also be used as supplementary reading in a course on real-time systems.
