Stergios Papadimitriou and Lefteris Moussiades begin Chapter One by comparing and contrasting some aspects of ScalaLab and GroovyLab, the MATLAB-like environments for the Java Virtual Machine. Additionally, this chapter highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the two environments while examining the dilemma of whether to use dynamic typing or static typing for scientific programming. Next, Chapter Two by Marija Mitrovi Dankulov and Jelena Smiljani express how computational techniques might be used to determine the structure and dynamics of Meetup social groups. Lastly, Vladimir Lonar, Ivana Vasi, and Antun Bala review parallel numerical algorithms and programs based on the Crank-Nicolson split-step semi-implicit method in order to solve the nonlinear partial differential equations of the Schrdinger type.
