Bernhardt, Leah H. Hinds, and Katina P. Strauch[Ashland, Oregon] :[Purdue University Press],2015.©20151 online resource (648 pages)1-941269-03-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Over one hundred presentations from the thirty-fourth Charleston Library Conference (held November 5-8, 2014) are included in this annual proceedings volume. Major themes of the meeting included patron-driven acquisitions versus librarian-driven acquisitions; marketing library resources to faculty and students to increase use; measuring and demonstrating the library's role and impact in the retention of students and faculty; the desirability of textbook purchasing by the library; changes in workflows necessitated by the move to virtual collections; the importance of self-publishing and open access publishing as a collection strategy; the hybrid publisher and the hybrid author; the library's role in the collection of data, datasets, and data curation; and data-driven decision making. While the Charleston meeting remains a core one for acquisitions, serials, and collection development librarians in dialog with publishers and vendors, the breadth of coverage of this volume reflects the fact that the Charleston Conference is now one of the major venues for leaders in the information community to shape strategy and prepare for the future. Over 1,600 delegates attended the 2014 meeting, ranging from the staff of small public library systems to CEOs of major corporations. This fully indexed, copyedited volume provides a rich source for the latest evidence-based research and lessons from practice in a range of information science fields. The contributors are leaders in the library, publishing, and vendor communities.LibrariesInformation technologyCongressesLibrary administrationCongressesElectronic information resourcesManagementCongressesCommunication in learning and scholarshipCongressesLibrary usersCongressesPatron-driven acquisitions (Libraries)CongressesAcquisitions (Libraries)CongressesCollection management (Libraries)CongressesLibrary scienceUnited StatesCongressesLibrary scienceCongressesElectronic books.

Following the previously published volume, these chapters were written by leading experts in the field and accurately reflect the diversity of subject matter in theory and applications. Several mathematical tools are employed throughout the volume, including analysis of nonlinear PDEs, network theory, mean field approximations, control theory, and flocking analysis. The book also covers a wide range of applications, including: Biological network formation Social systems Control theory of sparse systems Dynamics of swarming and flocking systems Stochastic particles and mean field approximations Mathematicians and other members of the scientific community interested in active matter and its many applications will find this volume to be a timely, authoritative, and valuable resource.Modeling and Simulation in Science, Engineering and Technology,2164-3679Mathematical modelsSystem theoryStatistical physicsDynamical systemsMathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14068Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13090Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090Mathematical models.System theory.Statistical physics.Dynamical systems.Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics.Complex Systems.Complex Systems.Statistical Physics and Dynamical Systems.570.15118570.15118Bellomo Nicolaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDegond Pierreedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtTadmor Eitanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910349322303321Active Particles, Volume 22508241UNINA
