Contents of Volumes in this Series

Since its first volume in 1960, Advances in Computers has presented detailed coverage of innovations in computer hardware, software, theory, design, and applications. It has also provided contributors with a medium in which they can explore their subjects in greater depth and breadth than journal articles usually allow. As a result, many articles have become standard references that continue to be of sugnificant, lasting value in this rapidly expanding field.

• In-depth surveys and tutorials on new computer technology
• Well-known authors and researchers in the field
• Extensive bibliographies with most chapters
• Many of the volumes are devoted to single themes or subfields of computer science

Researchers in high performance computer areas, hardware manufacturers, physics and scientific computation and computer science educational programs
