Download or read book Nexus Network Journal 14 1 written by Kim Williams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Winter 2012 (vol. 14 no. 1) issue of the Nexus Network Journal is dedicated to the theme “Architecture, Systems Research and Computational Sciences”. This is an outgrowth of the session by the same name which took place during the eighth international, interdisciplinary conference “Nexus 2010: Relationships between Architecture and Mathematics, held in Porto, Portugal, in June 2010. Today computer science is an integral part of even strictly historical investigations, such as those concerning the construction of vaults, where the computer is used to survey the existing building, analyse the data and draw the ideal solution. What the papers in this issue make especially evident is that information technology has had an impact at a much deeper level as well: architecture itself can now be considered as a manifestation of information and as a complex system. The issue is completed with other research papers, conference reports and book reviews.
Download or read book Typology of Writing Systems written by Susanne R. Borgwaldt and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-15 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typology research is extremely important in both proposing classification frameworks and in promoting the careful investigation and analysis of the core concepts inherent within the classification contrasts employed. More exemplary of the latter aspect, the present collection of papers on the typology of writing systems address a number of significant linguistic and psycholinguistic issues surrounding the classification of writing systems. The seven contributions within this volume, which originally appeared as a special issue of Written Language and Literacy 14:1 (2011), cover a wide variety of issues, ranging from an overview of writing system typology research, comparative graphematics, letter-shape similarities, the morphographic principle, tone orthography typology, measuring graphematic transparency, to unconventional spellings within online chat. Reflecting the growing interest in writing, the book will be of interest to advanced students and researchers working on writing systems, written language, and reading research.

With applications in education, government, entertainment, and more, the technologies explored in these volumes will provide a comprehensive reference for web designers, software developers, and practitioners in a wide variety of fields and disciplines.
Download or read book Internet and Society in Latin America and the Caribbean written by International Development Research Centre (Canada) and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2004 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents pioneering research that is designed to show, from a qualitative and ethnographic perspective, how new information and communication technologies, as applied to the school system and to local governance initiatives, merely reproduce traditional pedagogical approaches and the dominant forms by which power is exercised at the local level. The studies thus constitute points of departure for further thinking about the need to promote an Internet culture based on the social application of a OC right to communication and cultureOCO and an OC Internet right, OCO that will permit the establishment of true citizen participation and free access to knowledge, with due regard to personal and individual rights such as those of privacy and intimacy."

Download or read book The De Gruyter Handbook of Artificial Intelligence Identity and Technology Studies written by Anthony Elliott and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The De Gruyter Handbook of Artificial Intelligence, Identity and Technology Studies examines the relationship of the social sciences to artificial intelligence, surveying the various convergences and divergences between science and technology studies on the one hand and identity transformations on the other. It provides representative coverage of all aspects of the AI revolution, from employment to education to military warfare, impacts on public policy and governance and the future of ethics. How is AI currently transforming social, economic, cultural and psychological processes? This handbook answers these questions by looking at recent developments in supercomputing, deep learning and neural networks, including such topics as AI mobile technology, social robotics, big data and digital research. It focuses especially on mechanisms of identity by defining AI as a new context for self-exploration and social relations and analyzing phenomena such as race, ethnicity and gender politics in human-machine interfaces.

Download or read book Joan Fontcuberta written by Joan Fontcuberta and published by Fundacion Telefonica. This book was released on 2001 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La exposición gira en torno a la noción de seguridad, representada y simbolizada por un elemento real y de uso común que se convierte en protagonista: la llave, instrumento que cierra o abre, según nuestra conveniencia, nuestros propios espacios de seguridad, en los que sentimos libres, y a salvo de riesgos, a las personas y cosas preciadas. Pero el perfil de las llaves se asemeja al relieve de una orografía montañosa y permite al artista inventar un paisaje de seguridad a partir de las llaves-montañas. El paisaje de la seguridad es también el paisaje de la libertad. La consideración del clima y del territorio en relación con la aplicación de las leyes y el ejercicio del poder es antigua y los estudiosos coinciden en señalar que los climas frios y los territorios montañosos son los más aptos para la existencia de gobiernos y pueblos libres, como consecuencia de las propias dificultades existentes para controlar el territorio y los súbditos.
