   A survey of cloud platforms and their future
Pastaki Rad M., Sajedi Badashian A., Meydanipour G., Ashurzad Delcheh M., Alipour M., Afzali H.  ICCSA 09 (Proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications, Seoul, Korea, Jun 29, 2009788-796, 2009.  Type: Proceedings

The software as a service (SaaS) approach freed users from the need to buy and maintain information technology (IT) infrastructure, but it also transferred many new problems to developers--they now have to write applications t...

   Variations on U-shaped learning
Carlucci L., Jain S., Kinber E., Stephan F. Information and Computation 204(8): 1264-1294, 2006.  Type: Article

“Returning to wrong conjectures is necessary to achieve full learning power.” This essential result of this paper was obtained through a rigorous, mathematically oriented language-theoretic analysis of learn...

   A systems approach to appraisal mechanisms in emotion
Sander D., Grandjean D., Scherer K. Neural Networks 18(4): 317-352, 2005.  Type: Article

From the days of Descartes to current times, the theoretical understanding and modeling of human emotions has puzzled philosophers and scientists. This is the first time I’ve read an approach to this difficult subject tha...

   Storage networks
Worden D., APress, LP, Berkeley, CA, 2004.  Type: Book (9781590592984)

A failure is a deviation (usually toward substandard levels) from expected behavior of any component of the information technology (IT) infrastructure of an organization. Availability, on the other hand, is an acceptable, or agreed to,...

   The cross entropy method: a unified approach to combinatorial optimization, Monte-Carlo simulation (Information Science and Statistics)
Rubinstein R., Kroese D., Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., Secaucus, NJ, 2004.  Type: Book (9780387212401)

Rarely have I seen such a dense and straight to the point pedagogical monograph on such a modern subject. This excellent book, on the simulated cross-entropy method (CEM) pioneered by one of the authors (Rubinstein), is very well writt...

   The collective control of perceptions: constructing order from conflict
McClelland K. International Journal of Human-Computer Studies 60(1): 65-99, 2004.  Type: Article, Reviews: (2 of 2)

This is a fine sociology paper, discussing how a computational model of a dynamical system--consisting of one or two agents that control their perceptions and not their actions--appears to be compatible with observati...

   Relevance as resonance: a new theoretical perspective and a practical utilization in information filtering
Brouard C., Nie J. Information Processing and Management: an International Journal 40(1): 1-19, 2004.  Type: Article

Resonance as a neuronal mechanism is very cleverly linked to information retrieval (IR) in this interesting and well-written paper. The approach in the paper can be described as a “natural” interpretation of relevan...

   Patterns of cooperative interaction: linking ethnomethodology and design
Martin D., Sommerville I. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction 11(1): 59-89, 2004.  Type: Article, Reviews: (1 of 2)

Patterns of cooperative interaction catalytically bridge the apparent disparities between the key dimensions of this fine paper, namely, ethnomethodology and design. As the authors write, “patterns of cooperative interact...

   Numerical algorithms for use in quantum information
Ramos R. Journal of Computational Physics 192(1): 95-104, 2003.  Type: Article

This fine paper describes smart ways to tailor old suits to new bearers. Two “new bearers” are problems from the new science of quantum information, which are attacked and solved. The first is the calculation of the...
