Das Internet hat nicht nur unsere sprachliche Kommunikation mageblich verandert, sondern alle Formen der Aufnahme, Weitergabe und Bewaltigung von Informationen. Die Interaktion von technischer Entwicklung, kommunikativer Praxis und deren soziokognitiver Dynamik ist das Thema des Bandes. Experten aus den Bereichen Sozialpsychologie, Kommunikationswissenschaft und Linguistik setzen sich in ihren Beitragen kritisch mit diesem Phanomen im technischen Zeitalter auseinander. Der Sammelband liefert einen wichtigen Beitrag zum wissenschaftlichen Diskurs uber Konvergenzprozesse zwischen Technik,...

Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) allows software development time to be shortened by the composition of existing services across the Internet. Further exploitation of this revolutionary trend is feasible through automation, thanks to the use of software agents and techniques from distributed artificial intelligence.

This book provides an overview of the related technologies and insight into state-of-the art research results in the field. The topics discussed cover the various stages in the life cycle of service-oriented software development using agent technologies to automate the...

The major purpose of this book is to illustrate and explain the fundamental similarities and correspondences between humankind's oldest and newest thought-technologies: oral tradition and the Internet. Despite superficial differences, both technologies are radically alike in depending not on static products but rather on continuous processes, not on "What?" but on "How do I get there?" In contrast to the fixed spatial organization of the page and book, the technologies of oral tradition and the Internetmime the way we thinkby processing along pathways within a network. In both media it's...

Get ready for a shock, because the answer to the problem is to avoid reality altogether. A new IT practice and technology called Service Virtualization (SV) is industrializing the process of simulating everything in our software development and test environments. Service Virtualization is a method to emulate the behavior of components in heterogeneous applications such as "Service-Oriented Architectures" (SOA)....

For machine intelligence applications to work successfully, machines must perform reliably under variations of data and must be able to keep up with data streams. Internet-Scale Pattern Recognition: New Techniques for Voluminous Data Sets and Data Clouds unveils computational models that address performance and scalability to achieve higher levels of reliability. It explores different ways of implementing pattern recognition using machine intelligence.

Based on the authors research from the past 10 years, the text draws on concepts from pattern recognition,...

Information is an important concept that is studied extensively across a range of disciplines, from the physical sciences to genetics to psychology to epistemology. Information continues to increase in importance, and the present age has been referred to as the "Information Age."

One may understand information in a variety of ways. For some, information is found in facts that were previously unknown. For others, a fact must have some economic value to be considered information. Other people emphasize the movement through a communication channel from one location to another when...
