Since the inaugural PDCAT held in Hong Kong in 2000, the conference has - come a major forum for scientists, engineers, and practitioners throughout the world to present the latest research, results, ideas, developments, techniques, and applications in all areas of parallel and distributed computing. The technical program was comprehensive and featured keynote speeches, te- nical paper presentations, and exhibitions showcased by industry vendors. The technical program committee was overwhelmed with submissions of papers for presentation, from countries worldwide. We received 242 papers and after - viewing them, based on stringent selection criteria, we accepted 173 papers. The papers in the proceedings focus on parallel and distributed computing viewed from the three perspectives of networking and architectures, software systems and technologies, and algorithms and applications. We acknowledge the great contribution from all of our local and international committee members and - perreviewerswhodevotedtheirtimeinthereviewprocessandprovidedvaluable feedback for the authors. PDCAT 2004 could never have been successful without the support and ass- tance of several institutions and many people. We sincerely appreciate the s- port from the National Grid O?ce and IEEE, Singapore for technical co-sponsorship.The?nancialsponsorshipsfromtheindustrialsponsors,Hewlett- Packard Singapore; IBM Singapore; Sun Microsystems; SANDZ Solutions; S- icon Graphics, and Advanced Digital Information Corporation, are gratefully acknowledged. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Computer Science,$x0302-9743 ;$v3320 606 $aComputer communication systems 606 $aComputers 606 $aSoftware engineering 606 $aComputer organization 606 $aOptical data processing 606 $aComputer Communication Networks$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13022 606 $aTheory of Computation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16005 606 $aSoftware Engineering/Programming and Operating Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I14002 606 $aComputer Systems Organization and Communication Networks$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I13006 606 $aInformation Systems and Communication Service$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18008 606 $aComputer Imaging, Vision, Pattern Recognition and Graphics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I22005 615 0$aComputer communication systems. 615 0$aComputers. 615 0$aSoftware engineering. 615 0$aComputer organization. 615 0$aOptical data processing. 615 14$aComputer Communication Networks. 615 24$aTheory of Computation. 615 24$aSoftware Engineering/Programming and Operating Systems. 615 24$aComputer Systems Organization and Communication Networks. 615 24$aInformation Systems and Communication Service. 615 24$aComputer Imaging, Vision, Pattern Recognition and Graphics. 676 $a004/.35 702 $aLiew$b Kim-Meow$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aShen$b Hong$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSee$b Simon$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCai$b Wentong$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFan$b Pingzhi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHoriguchi$b Susumu$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996466348303316 996 $aParallel and Distributed Computing: Applications and Technologies$9772797 997 $aUNISA LEADER 04951oam 22006254a 450 001 9910524870503321 005 20230621141033.0 010 $a1-4214-4226-4 010 $a1-4214-1285-3 035 $a(CKB)3880000000024349 035 $a(EBL)4398455 035 $a(OCoLC)941696032 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001339561 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11867931 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001339561 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11351481 035 $a(PQKB)11387753 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4398455 035 $a(OCoLC)868219549 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse28112 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/89022 035 $a(oapen)doab89022 035 $a(EXLCZ)993880000000024349 100 $a20130920e20132004 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe papers of Thomas A.

Edison covers Edison's invention and development of the first commercial incandescent electric light and power system. In the process he turned his famed Menlo Park laboratory into the first true research and development facility. This also enabled him to develop a new telephone for the British market in the midst of his herculean efforts on electric lighting.In the face of daunting technical challenges and skepticism from leading scientists and engineers, Edison and his team of experimenters and machinists found the solution to the decades-old problem of creating a practical incandescent lamp. By focusing on the characteristics of the entire system Edison reconceptualized the requirements of a successful lamp design. While rivals worked primarily on lamps, Edison developed other parts of a complete system as well. This approach was most notable in his revolutionary work on generator technology, one of the highlights of this volume. Successful exhibitions of the system in December 1879 drew crowds to Menlo Park to witness the softly glowing lamps. These spectacles gratified his financial backers but Edison realized the importance of following experimental demonstrations with the hard work of commercial development. He needed to make each component work effectively in daily use and to improve the designs so that they were easy to use and inexpensive to manufacture. To create a daytime market for electricity he also developed electric motors for a variety of uses, including electric railways, for which he built a small demonstration line at Menlo Park. To accomplish all this Edison greatly enlarged his staff to as many as sixty experimenters, machinists, carpenters, and office workers. He began manufacturing lamps at a factory in Menlo Park. At the end of 1880, Edison was ready to move his system into commercial production and made plans to produce other components in New York. He also invited New York officials to a demonstration in order to win their approval for running underground lines in lower Manhattan where he planned to put his first commercial central station. In March 1881, he moved to the Edison Electric Light Company's headquarters on Fifth Avenue and began the hard work of introducing the new electric light and power technology. 606 $aInventors$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aInventors 676 $a600 700 $aEdison$b Thomas A$g(Thomas Alva),$f1847-1931,$01097548 702 $aNier$b Keith A. 702 $aHochfelder$b David$f1965- 702 $aCarlat$b Louis 702 $aIsrael$b Paul 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524870503321 996 $aThe Papers of Thomas A.
