New discoveries about algorithms are leading scientists beyond the
Church-Turing Thesis, which governs the "algorithmic universe" and
asserts the conventionality of recursive algorithms. A new paradigm
for computation, the super-recursive algorithm, offers promising
prospects for algorithms of much greater computing power and
efficiency.
Super-Recursive Algorithms provides an accessible, focused
examination of the theory of super-recursive algorithms and its
ramifications for the computer industry, networks, artificial
intelligence, embedded systems, and the Internet. The book
demonstrates how these algorithms are more appropriate as
mathematical models for modern computers, and how these algorithms
present a better framework for computing methods in such areas as
numerical analysis, array searching, and controlling and monitoring
systems. In addition, a new practically-oriented perspective on the
theory of algorithms, computation, and automata, as a whole, is
developed. Problems of efficiency, software development, parallel
and distributed processing, pervasive and emerging computation,
computer architecture, machine learning, brain modeling, knowledge
discovery, and intelligent systems are addressed.
Topics and Features:
* Encompasses and systematizes all main classes of super-recursive
algorithms and the theory behind them
* Describes the strengthening link between the theory of
super-recursive algorithms and actual algorithms close to practical
realization
* Examines the theory's basis as a foundation for advancements
in computing, information science, and related technologies
* Encompasses and systematizes all main types of mathematical
models of algorithms
* Highlights how super-recursive algorithms pave the way for
more advanced design, utilization, and maintenance of computers
* Examines and restructures the existing variety of mathematical
models of complexity of algorithms and computation, introducing new
models
* Possesses a comprehensive bibliography and index
This clear exposition, motivated by numerous examples and
illustrations, serves to develop a new paradigm for complex,
high-performance computing based on both partial recursive
functions and more inclusive recursive algorithms. Researchers and
advanced students interested in theory of computation and
algorithms will find the book an essential resource for an
important new class of algorithms.
