Cena děkana za nejlepší učebnici a monografii
Letošní ceny za nejlepší loni vydané publikace si odnesli profesor Roman Barták za učebnici An Introduction to Constraint-Based Temporal Reasoning a Michal Johanis za monografii Smooth Analysis in Banach Spaces.
Ocenění za publikační počiny na vědecké půdě jsou důležitou součástí mateřské instituce Matematicko-fyzikální fakulty, která se tak snaží podpořit vědecké tvůrce k publikačním výkonům mířícím nejenom k širší veřejnosti, ale i světové vědecké obci. Dle statutu jsou ceny udělovány pouze za publikace, které dosahují mimořádné pedagogické či vědecké úrovně a jejichž autory nebo spoluautory jsou pracovníci fakulty.
Ceny děkana Matematicko-fyzikální fakulty Univerzity Karlovy za nejlepší monografii a učebnici za rok 2014 byly předány na zasedání Vědecké rady z rukou děkana MFF UK profesora Jana Kratochvíla ve dnech 6. 5. a 3. 6. 2015.
Roman Barták, Robert Morris, K. Brent Venable: An Introduction to
Constraint-Based Temporal Reasoning
Morgan & Claypool Publishers
121 stran
ANOTACE:
Solving challenging computational problems involving time has been a critical component in the development of artificial intelligence systems
almost since the inception of the field. This book provides a concise
introduction to the core computational elements of temporal reasoning for use in
AI systems for planning and scheduling, as well as systems that extract temporal
information from data. It presents a survey of temporal frameworks based on
constraints, both qualitative and quantitative, as well as of major temporal
consistency techniques. The book also introduces the reader to more recent
extensions to the core model that allow AI systems to explicitly represent
temporal preferences and temporal uncertainty.
This book is intended for students and researchers interested in constraint-based temporal reasoning. It provides a self-contained guide to the different representations of time, as well as examples of recent applications of time in AI systems.
The subject of infinite dimensional real higher smoothness is treatedherefor the first time in full detail, therefore this book may also serve as a reference book.

ANOTACE:
This bookis about the subject of higher smoothness in separable real Banach
spaces. It brings together several angles of view on polynomials, both in finite
and infinite setting.Also a rather thorough and systematic view of the more
recent results, and the authors work is given. The book revolves around two main
broad questions: What is the best smoothness of a given Banach space, and its
structural consequences? How large is a supply of smooth functions in the sense
of approximating continuous functions in the uniform topology, i.e. how does the
Stone-Weierstrass theorem generalize into infinite dimension where measure and
compactness are not available?
