Fast Software Encryption (Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, #809)
by Adam Anderson and Ross Anderson
Adaptive and Natural Computing Algorithms (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, #6593)
The ICANNGA series of Conferences has been organised since 1993 and has a long history of promoting the principles and understanding of computational intelligence paradigms within the scientific community and is a reference for established workers in this area. Starting in Innsbruck, in Austria (1993), then to Ales in Prance (1995), Norwich in England (1997), Portoroz in Slovenia (1999), Prague in the Czech Republic (2001) and finally Roanne, in France (2003), the ICANNGA series has established...
This volume contains the papers presented at the 3rd IFIP Working Conference on Dependable Computing for Critical Applications. The topics addressed span the spectrum of dependable computing, from design methods for distributed, fault-tolerant systems to formal and experimental validation techniques. This book should interest individuals involved in the development of computing systems where dependability attributes such as reliability, safety, and security are a major concern.
In 1951, I got a job operating IBM equipment. Fifty years later, I was still working in Information Systems. By this time, I had been made I.S. Director, and had planned and installed six new computer sites, including the first in-house, online IBM teller system in the city of Chicago, followed by the first Point of Sale system in Jewel Supermarkets. If anyone wonders where Information Systems originated, or how it evolved, or why it has endured so long, they'll find the answers here. From its...

Reading the Old Testament in Antioch (Bible in Ancient Christianity, #5)
by Robert C. Hill
In the period between the councils of Nicea and Chalcedon in the fourth and fifth centuries, the faithful in the churches of the ecclesiastical district of Antioch were the beneficiaries of the ministry of the Word from distinguished pastors. Included in this ministry were homilies on the Old Testament by John Chrysostom and written commentaries by his mentor Diodore and his fellow student Theodore, and later by Theodoret. Though the biblical text was admittedly Jewish in origin, "the text and t...

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Web Information Systems Engineering, WISE 2014, held in Thessaloniki, Greece, in October 2014. The 52 full papers, 16 short and 14 poster papers, presented in the two-volume proceedings LNCS 8786 and 8787 were carefully reviewed and selected from 196 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: Web mining, modeling and classification; Web querying and searching; Web recommendation and personalization; se...
This Vaxjo conference was devoted to the reconsideration of quantum foundations. Due to increasing research in quantum information theory, especially on quantum computing and cryptography, many questions regarding the foundations of quantum mechanics, which have long been considered to be exclusively of philosophical interest, nowadays play an important role in theoretical and experimental quantum physics.
IT organizations are under intense pressure to manage the power consumed by data centers and the resulting cooling demands. To address these needs, IT needs to properly blend people, process and technology to create solutions. In my first Green IT pocket guide, we reviewed governance and processes for Green IT. In this guide we will provide a sample of technical improvement opportunities at a high-level. By doing so, the intent is to foster discussions in your own organization around what should...
