Download or read book Values and Virtues written by Timothy Chappell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 25 centuries, Aristotle's influence on our society's moral thinking remains profound even when subterranean. Typical members of our society can often be made to see that their moral thought and action are, in crucial ways, unwittingly Aristotelian. No one in contemporary philosophical ethics can afford to ignore Aristotle. Much of the finest work in recent moral philosophy has been overtly and professedly Aristotelian in inspiration. And many writers who would officiallydistance themselves from Aristotle and his contemporary followers are nonetheless indebted to him, sometimes in ways that they do not realise.Values and Virtues provides a platform for some notable writers in the area to present and discuss their new ideas about Aristotelian ethics in a way that will advance the academic debate and engage the interest of a broad range of philosophical readers.

Download or read book Agent and Multi Agent Systems Technologies and Applications written by Geun Sik Jo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2008-04-03 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following from the very successful First KES Symposium on Agent and Multi-Agent Systems – Technologies and Applications (KES-AMSTA 2007), held in Wroclaw, Poland, 31 May–1 June 2007, the second event in the KES-AMSTA symposium series (KES-AMSTA 2008) was held in Incheon, Korea, March 26–28, 2008. The symposium was organized by the School of Computer and Information Engineering, Inha University, KES International and the KES Focus Group on Agent and Mul- agent Systems. The KES-AMSTA Symposium Series is a sub-series of the KES Conference Series. The aim of the symposium was to provide an international forum for scientific research into the technologies and applications of agent and multi-agent systems. Agent and multi-agent systems are related to the modern software which has long been recognized as a promising technology for constructing autonomous, complex and intelligent systems. A key development in the field of agent and multi-agent systems has been the specification of agent communication languages and formalization of ontologies. Agent communication languages are intended to provide standard declarative mechanisms for agents to communicate knowledge and make requests of each other, whereas ontologies are intended for conceptualization of the knowledge domain. The symposium attracted a very large number of scientists and practitioners who submitted their papers for nine main tracks concerning the methodology and applications of agent and multi-agent systems, a doctoral track and two special sessions.

A public library working under the Directorate of Public Instruction (DPI) and an e-library were established under the Sarve Shiksha Mission under the project of GIAN (General Information Access Network) in 2002. The study gave comprehensive information about both libraries and also compared different areas and gave historical background on public libraries in India and also electronic libraries. Which types of collection are available, the status of manpower, infrastructure, services provided to the user, and other related areas and uses by both libraries gave some suggestions to improve the present conditions of existing libraries.

Download or read book Knowledge and the Philosophy of Number written by Keith Hossack and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If numbers were objects, how could there be human knowledge of number? Numbers are not physical objects: must we conclude that we have a mysterious power of perceiving the abstract realm? Or should we instead conclude that numbers are fictions? This book argues that numbers are not objects: they are magnitude properties. Properties are not fictions and we certainly have scientific knowledge of them. Much is already known about magnitude properties such as inertial mass and electric charge, and much continues to be discovered. The book says the same is true of numbers. In the theory of magnitudes, the categorial distinction between quantity and individual is of central importance, for magnitudes are properties of quantities, not properties of individuals. Quantity entails divisibility, so the logic of quantity needs mereology, the a priori logic of part and whole. The three species of quantity are pluralities, continua and series, and the book presents three variants of mereology, one for each species of quantity. Given Euclid's axioms of equality, it is possible without the use of set theory to deduce the axioms of the natural, real and ordinal numbers from the respective mereologies of pluralities, continua and series. Knowledge and the Philosophy of Number carries out these deductions, arriving at a metaphysics of number that makes room for our a priori knowledge of mathematical reality.
Download or read book Numerical Mathematics written by Shlomo Breuer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-07-30 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical Mathematics is a unique book that introduces computational microcomputer laboratories as a vehicle for teaching algorithmic aspects of mathematics. This is achieved through a sequence of laboratory assignments, presupposing no previous knowledge of calculus or linear algebra, where the "chalk- and-talk" lecturer turns into a laboratory istructor. The computational assignments cover iterative processes, area approximations, linear systems, convergence acceleration, interpolative approximations, and construction of computer-library functions. The material is part and parcel of the mathematical foundations that should be acquired by a college student in the microcomputer era.
