Arithmeum Old Problem in Discrete Mathematics and Its Modern Applications/Klassische Probleme in Der Diskreten Mathematik Und Deren Moderne Anwendungen

This interactive teaching tool uses powerful multimedia techniques to introduce the basic topics in computing. The author has drawn on colourful images, animations, videos, and music, to create a lively and rich learning experience. The interactive journey starts with graph theory and the steering of satellites, then moves on to the optimization of computer-controlled machines, and finishes with a look at microchips. The focus is on microchip design and mathematical algorithms of discrete mathematics. Throughout, cleverly designed hands-on demonstrations and exercises help the user to grasp the various concepts by doing. The CD-ROM was developed by Arithmeum, a museum of computing in Bonn, Germany, which is associated with the Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics at the University of Bonn. The teaching tool contains a German and English version, and is a must-have for every student of mathematics or computer science who is interested in information technology.Karnbach, Bodo is the author of 'Arithmeum Old Problem in Discrete Mathematics and Its Modern Applications/Klassische Probleme in Der Diskreten Mathematik Und Deren Moderne Anwendungen' with ISBN 9783540149019 and ISBN 3540149015.
