A neurocomputational perspective :the nature of mind and the structure of sci…

If we are to solve the central problems in the philosophy of science, Paul Churchland argues, we must draw heavily on the resources of the emerging sciences of the mind-brain. A Neurocomputationial Perspective illustrates the fertility of the concepts and data drawn from the study of the brain and of artificial networks that model the brain. These concepts bring unexpected coherence to scattere…

Internet architecture and innovation

Today--following housing bubbles, bank collapses, and high unemployment--the Internet remains the most reliable mechanism for fostering innovation and creating new wealth. The Internet's remarkable growth has been fueled by innovation. In this pathbreaking book, Barbara van Schewick argues that this explosion of innovation is not an accident, but a consequence of the Internet's architecture--a …

The Neurobiology of neural networks

"A Bradford book."This timely overview and synthesis of recent work in both artificial neural networks and neurobiology seeks to examine neurobiological data from a network perspective and to encourage neuroscientists to participate in constructing the next generation of neural networks. Individual chapters were commissioned from selected authors to bridge the gap between present neural network…

The art of agent-oriented modeling / The Art of Agent-Oriented Modeling

A new approach for conceptualizing and modeling multi-agent systems that consist of people, devices, and software agents.

Understanding the art of sound organization / the Art of Sound Organization

The first work to propose a comprehensive musicological framework to study sound-based music, a rapidly developing body of work that includes electroacoustic art music, turntable composition, and acoustic and digital sound installations.

Programmed visions Software and Memory

Wendy Hui Kyong Chun argues that cycles of obsolescence & renewal result in part from the ways in which new media encapsulates a logic of programmability. In seeking to embody a future based on past data, new media becomes a metaphor for metaphor itself.

Social modeling for requirements engineering

Much of the difficulty in creating information technology systems that truly meet people's needs lies in the problem of pinning down system requirements. This book offers a new approach to the requirements challenge, based on modeling and analyzing the relationships among stakeholders. Although the importance of the system-environment relationship has long been recognized in the requirements en…
