Каталог The Dream Machine: J.C.R. Licklider and the Revolution That Made Computing Personal M. Mitchell Waldrop, Mitchell M. Waldrop While most people may not be familiar with the name J. C. R. Licklider, he was the guiding spirit behind the greatest revolution of the modern era. At a time when most computers were big, ponderous mainframes, he envisioned them as desktop tools that could empower individuals, foster creativity, and allow the sharing of information all over the world. Working from an obscure office in the depths of the Pentagon, he set in motion the forces that could make his vision real. Writing with the same novelistic flair that made his Complexity "the most exciting intellectual adventure story of the year" ( The Washington Post ), Waldrop presents the history of this great enterprise and the first full-scale portrait of the man whose dream of a "human-computersymbiosis" changed the course of science and culture, gave us the modern world of computing, and laid the foundation for the Internet age. "Waldrop's account of [Licklider's] and many others' world-transforming contributions...... Complexity Theory Retrospective: In Honor of Juris Hartmanis on the Occasion of His Sixtieth Birthday, July 5, 1988 Alan L. Selman In 1965 Juris Hartmanis and Richard E. Stearns published a paper "On the Computational Complexity of Algorithms". The field of complexity theory takes its name from this seminal paper and many of the major concepts and issues of complexity theory were introduced by Hartmanis in subsequent work. In honor of the contribution of Juris Hartmanis to the field of complexity theory, a special session of invited talks by Richard E. Stearns, Allan Borodin and Paul Young was held at the third annual meeting of theStructure in Complexity conference, and the first three chapters of this book are the final versions of these talks. They recall intellectual and professional trends in Hartmanis' contributions. All but one of the remainder of the chapters in this volumeoriginated as a presentation at one of the recent meetings of the Structure in Complexity Theory Conference and appeared in preliminary form in the conference proceedings. In all, these expositions form an excellent description of much......

Doing Hard Time: Developing Real-Time Systems with UML, Objects, Frameworks and Patterns Bruce Powel Douglass Addison-Wesley Professional. Doing Hard Time: Developing Real-Time Systems with UML, Objects, Frameworks, and Patterns provides an excellent guide to using today's cutting-edge software-engineering techniques to develop software for embedded systems. Author Bruce Powel Douglass begins by championing the advantages of objects for embedded development and then shows off basic UML document types. Next he addresses the difficulties of writing embedded systems (which are used in hospitals, aircraft, nuclear power plants, and other life-or-death environments). He looks at the restricted resources of embedded hardware and design issues regarding memory management and event handling. The book expertly discusses the difference between the reliability and safety of software. (Itdescribes the use of a number of patterns that can be used to provide safe operation in the event of single-point failure of a system.) Rapid Object-Oriented Process for Embedded Systems (ROPES) finds its way to the heart of the...... <<<  The Origins of Railway Enterprise: The Stockton and Darlington Railway, ...             Rebooting: Defeating Depression with the Power of Kabbalah.
