This book presents the essential aspects of relativistic
quantum field theory, with minimal use of mathematics. It covers
the development of quantum field theory from the original
quantization of electromagnetic field to the gauge field theory
of interactions among quarks and leptons.
Aimed at both scientists and non-specialists, it requires only
some rudimentary knowledge of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian
formulation of Newtonian mechanics and a basic understanding of
the special theory of relativity and quantum mechanics.
Contents:
Particles and Fields I: Dichotomy
Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Dynamics
Canonical Quantization
Particles and Fields II: Duality
Equations for Duality
Electromagnetic Field
Emulation of Light I: Matter Fields
Road Map for Field Quantization
Particles and Fields III: Particles as Quanta of Fields
Emulation of Light II: Interactions
Triumph and Wane
Emulation of Light III: Gauge Field
Quarks and Leptons
Non-Abelian Gauge Field Theories
Readership: Students, researchers, academics and non-specialists
interested in quantum field theory.

The study of attractors of dynamical systems occupies an
important position in the modern qualitative theory of
differential equations. This engaging volume presents an
authoritative overview of both autonomous and non-autonomous
dynamical systems, including the global compact attractor. From
an in-depth introduction to the different types of dissipativity
and attraction, the book takes a comprehensive look at the
connections between them, and critically discusses applications
of general results to different classes of differential equations.
Intended for experts in qualitative theory of differential
equations, dynamical systems and their applications, this
accessible book can also serve as an important resource for
senior students and lecturers.
Contents:
Autonomous Dynamical Systems
Non-Autonomous Dissipative Dynamical Systems
Analytic Dissipative Systems
The Structure of the Levinson Centre of System with the Condition
of the Hyperbolicity
Method of Lyapunov Functions
Dissipativity of Some Classes of Equations
Upper Semi-Continuity of Attractors
The Relationship between Pullback, Forward and Global Attractors
Pullback Attractors of ?泡nalytic Systems

Readership: Researchers, academics/lecturers, graduate students
and post-graduate students in dynamical systems and their
applications.

About this book
During maintenance of a software system, not all questions can be
answered directly by resorting to otherwise reliable and accurate
source code. Reverse engineering aims at extracting abstract,
goal-oriented views of the system, able to summarize relevant
properties of the program's computations. Reverse Engineering of
Object-Oriented Code provides a comprehensive overview of several
techniques that have been recently investigated in the field of
reverse engineering. The book describes the algorithms involved
in recovering UML diagrams from the code and the techniques that
can be adopted for their visualization. This is important because
the UML has become the standard for representing design diagrams
in object-oriented development. A state-of-the-art exposition on
how to design object-oriented code and accompanying algorithms
that can be reverse engineered for greater flexibility in future
code maintenance and alteration. Essential object-oriented
concepts and programming methods for software engineers and
researchers.
