The Evolution of C ++: Language Design in the Marketplace of Ideas
Unlike most programming languages that were designed by an identifiable individual or research group, C++ developed in response to open debate among the community of users of the language. Bringing together the main articles that presented the design alternatives in that debate, The Evolution of C++ explores the underlying concepts of this exceedingly popular language, explaining why C++ looks and behaves the way it does. From a commercial standpoint, C++ combines the best of two worlds: it is object oriented and it is a version of C, the single most popular programming language for microcomputers. Originally developed by Bjarne Stroustrup and others at AT&T Bell Labs during the mid 1980s, C++ evolved further in response to the real and perceived needs of its users. Part I chronicles the early days of C++, beginning with what, from the original Santa Fe workshop, looked like a great new object-oriented language with a straightforward future. The next four parts are organized around major debates that developed later about such added features as multiple inheritance, exception handling, runtime typing, and distributed computing. In his postscript, Waldo notes that in the process of evolving through “the marketplace of ideas,” a clearly articulated, generally accepted design center for the language has been lost. Although C++ has adapted to the changing environment of the increasing number of users, there is at present no common agreement about what it should or should not do in the future. Jim Waldo is Senior Staff Engineer at Sun Microsystems Laboratories.

Handbook of Computer Vision Algorithms in Image Algebra
Handbook of Computer Vision Algorithms in Image Algebra provides engineers, scientists, and students with an introduction to image algebra and presents detailed descriptions of over 80 fundamental computer vision techniques. These techniques represent a core of knowledge that all computer vision practitioners should have. The book also introduces the portable iac++ library, which supports image algebra programming in the C++ language.
Image algebra provides a concise, high-level mathematical language with which one can specify computer vision and image processing transformations and algorithms. It is clear, lucid, and easy to learn and use. Because of their high level of abstraction, image algebra specifications can be directly implemented on a variety of computer architectures. Programs using the iac++ library can be executed efficiently on both sequential and parallel computer architectures without modification. To aid practitioners in formulating algorithms in succinct and precise mathematical language, computer vision methods are presented with clear mathematical specifications. To assist algorithm implementors in developing robust programs, the practical impact of algorithm variants and implementation choices is discussed.
