Download or read book The Net Effect written by Thomas Streeter and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2010-12-05 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2012 Honorable Mention from the Association of Internet Researchers for their Annual Best Book Prize Outstanding Academic Title from 2011 by Choice Magazine This book about America's romance with computer communication looks at the internet, not as harbinger of the future or the next big thing, but as an expression of the times. Streeter demonstrates that our ideas about what connected computers are for have been in constant flux since their invention. In the 1950s they were imagined as the means for fighting nuclear wars, in the 1960s as systems for bringing mathematical certainty to the messy complexity of social life, in the 1970s as countercultural playgrounds, in the 1980s as an icon for what's good about free markets, in the 1990s as a new frontier to be conquered and, by the late 1990s, as the transcendence of markets in an anarchist open source utopia. The Net Effect teases out how culture has influenced the construction of the internet and how the structure of the internet has played a role in cultures of social and political thought. It argues that the internet's real and imagined anarchic qualities are not a product of the technology alone, but of the historical peculiarities of how it emerged and was embraced. Finding several different traditions at work in the development of the internet—most uniquely, romanticism—Streeter demonstrates how the creation of technology is shot through with profoundly cultural forces—with the deep weight of the remembered past, and the pressures of shared passions made articulate.

Download or read book High Performance Computing and Communications written by United States. General Accounting Office and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The House Armed Services Committee asked the GAO (General Accounting Office) to examine the HPCC (High Performance Computing and Communications) program in terms of: (1) the effectiveness of the program's management structure in setting goals and measuring progress, and (2) how extensively private industry has been involved in the planning and execution of this program. The HPCC program aims to accelerate the research and development of high performance computers and networks and promote the use of those resources in both the federal government and the private sector. The administration is now broadening the role of the HPCC program in developing new technology in support of the NII (National Information Infrastructure), and industry participation is crucial for the creation of new products and services for the NII. The GAO recommended that the HPCC program develop a detailed technical agenda as a framework for guiding the government's investment in HPCC research. The HPCC budgets are developed without formal guidelines, and a more standardized method for spending could broaden industry support for the program. Private sector participation could be promoted by inviting industry representatives to collaborate on the development of program plans. The Assistant to the President for Science and Technology (Science Advisor) concurred with the GAO's findings and also recommended that a private sector advisory board be established. (DGM).
