Book excerpt: I know what you are up to. But stop, look into the air around. What do ye see? Layers of dust and gas? Well, look minutely. Can you notice them now? Can you see the thought-bugs, zillions of them, dancing on the tree branches, jumping from the rooftop, and lolling on the sidewalk? Psst! A small one just slipped inside your trouser pocket. Such wily kids they are! Tell them you are not Avin, and that you have no intention to cleanse the thought-clouds. Or preempt violence, or track down serial offenders, or salvage victims. Tell them you’ll send a message if you spot Avin across the street. And even then, if they don’t listen to you, well, shake your legs, tiptoe out of their reach, and run for life!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International .4ssociation for Cryptologic Research (1.4CR) organizes tmo - ternational conferences every year, one in Europe and one in the 1-nited States. EUROCRYI’T’88. held in the beautiful environment of the S\~isb mountains in Davos, was the sixth European conference. The number of contributions and of participants at the meeting has increased substantiall!.. which is an indication of the high interest in cryptography and system security in general. The interest has not only increased but has also further moved towards - thentication. signatures and other protocols. This is easy to understand in view of the urgent needs for such protocols, in particular in connection with open - formation systems, and in view of the exciting problems in this area. The equally fascinating classical field of secrecy, 2.e. the theory, design and analysis of stream or block ciphers and of public key cryptosystems. was however also well represented and several significant results mere communicated. The present proceedings contain all contributions which were accepted for presentation. The chapters correspond to the sessions at the conference.

  • Author : David L. Spector
  • Publisher : Academic Press
  • Release : 2012-12-02
  • ISBN : 0323138136
  • Pages : 560 pages

Download or read book Dinoflagellates written by David L. Spector and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book begins with a general introduction and a taxonomic description of the dinoflagellates both to acquaint those unfamiliar with this group of organisms and to set the tone for the rest of the volume. It then addresses the following topics: cell biology (cell cortex, nuclear structure, cell cycle and mitosis, sexual reproduction, cysts and unusual inclusions); biochemistry (physiology and biochemistry, blooms and toxins, and biorhythms); and genetics. In addition, a comprehensive chapter on cell culturing provides the reader with an understanding of the growth conditions and requirements of various dinoflagellates and a simple to follow listing of culture media, all expressed in similar units for ease of comparison. The volume closes with a chapter on evolution which evaluates many of the features of dinoflagellates discussed in the text in terms of evolutionary significance. We hope that this treatise will be of use to research workers and students in the area of dinoflagellate biology and in other areas of biology in which dinoflagellates may be used as a model system for studying various biological problems.

  • Author : Chet Haase
  • Publisher : No Starch Press

  • ISBN : 1718502680
  • Pages : 415 pages

Download or read book Androids written by Chet Haase and published by No Starch Press. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating inside story of how the Android operating system came to be. In 2004, Android was two people who wanted to build camera software but couldn't get investors interested. Today, Android is a large team at Google, delivering an operating system (including camera software) to over 3 billion devices worldwide. This is the inside story, told by the people who made it happen. Androids: The Team that Built the Android Operating System is a first-hand chronological account of how the startup began, how the team came together, and how they all built an operating system from the kernel level to its applications and everything in between. It describes the tenuous beginnings of this ambitious project as a tiny startup, then as a small acquisition by Google that took on an industry with strong, entrenched competition. Author Chet Haase joined the Android team at Google in May 2010 and later recorded conversations with team members to preserve the early days of Android's history leading to the launch of 1.0. This engaging and accessible book captures the developers' stories in their own voices to answer the question: How did Android succeed?

Book Shadows

    Book Details:
  • Author : Roberto Casati
  • Publisher : Vintage
  • Release : 2007-12-18
  • ISBN : 0307427676
  • Pages : 242 pages

Download or read book Shadows written by Roberto Casati and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this original, wide-ranging, and endlessly thought-provoking work of popular nonfiction, a leading science writer uncovers the pervasive presence of shadows in our world. For Plato, shadows were the symbol of our limitations. For Galileo, they knocked the Earth from the center of the cosmos. They are a source of fear and a symbol of ignorance, and they loom large in art and design, mythology and folklore, physics and metaphysics, and architecture and urban planning. From shadows puppets and the psychology of shadows to the role of shadows in astronomy and the influence of shadows on the architectural profiles of our cities, Roberto Casati awakens our fascination in this tour-de-force of investigation and imagination.

Book Handbook of Middle American Indians  Volume 5

Download or read book Handbook of Middle American Indians Volume 5 written by Robert Wauchope and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, the fifth in the Handbook of Middle American Indians, presents a summary of work accomplished since the Spanish conquest in the contemporary description and historical reconstruction of the indigenous languages and language families of Mexico and Central America. The essays include the following: “Inventory of Descriptive Materials” by William Bright; “Inventory of Classificatory Materials” by Maria Teresa Fernández de Miranda, “Lexicostatistic Classification” by Morris Swadesh, “Systemic Comparison and Reconstruction” by Robert Longacre, and “Environmental Correlational Studies” by Sarah C. Gudschinsky. Sketches of Classical Nahuatl by Stanley Newman, Classical Yucatec Maya by Norman A. McQuown, and Classical Quiché by Munro S. Edmonson provide working tools for tackling the voluminous early postconquest texts in these languages of late preconquest empires (Aztec, Maya, Quiché). Further sketches of Sierra Popoluca by Benjamin F. Elson, of Isthmus Zapotec by Velma B. Pickett, of Huautla de Jiménez Mazatec by Eunice V. Pike, of Jiliapan Pame by Leonardo Manrique C., and of Huamelultec Chontal by Viola Waterhouse—together with those of Nahuatl, Maya, and Quiché—provide not only descriptive outlines of as many different linguistic structures but also linguistic representatives of seven structurally different families of Middle American languages. Miguel Léon-Portilla presents an outline of the relations between language and the culture of which it is a part and provides examples of some of these relations as revealed by contemporary research in indigenous Middle America. The volume editor, Norman A. McQuown (1914–2005), was Professor of Anthropology at The University of Chicago. He formerly taught at Hunter College and served with the Mexican Department of Indian Affairs. He carried out fieldwork with Totonac, Huastec, Tzeltal-Tzotzil, Mame, and other tribes. The Handbook of Middle American Indians was assembled and edited at the Middle American Research Institute of Tulane University with the assistance of grants from the National Science Foundation and under the sponsorship of the National Research Council Committee on Latin American Anthropology.

  • ISBN : 1568984278
  • Pages : 108 pages

Download or read book Typographically Speaking written by Margaret Re and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2003-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a career that has spanned more than forty years, Matthew Carter has designed many of the typefaces that we see every day in and on publications, books, signs, and screens. Carter's celebrated typefaces include such stalwarts as Galliard, Mantinia, and Verdana. In 1975, he created the now-pervasive Bell Centennial specifically for use in phone books. Publications including Sports Illustrated, the Daily News, Wired, and the Washington Post, along with cultural institutions such as the Walker Arts Center and The Victoria & Albert Museum, have all commissioned Carter fonts. Typographically Speaking: The Art of Matthew Carter entered the field in the days of hand-cut punches and hot-metal type, and has continued to innovate through the eras of photocomposition and digital design. Essays discuss the form of his work, his position and use of typographic history, and his technological innovation. All of his fonts are reproduced in full for reference, and illustrations place his designs in context. Published in conjunction with the University of Maryland Baltimore County.
