Review Intelligent Help Systems for UNIX / Springer:

In this international collection of papers there is a wealth of knowledge on artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive science (CS) techniques applied to the problem of providing help systems mainly for the UNIX operating system. The research described here involves the representation of technical computer concepts, but also the representation of how users conceptualise such concepts. The collection looks at computational models and systems such as UC, Yucca, and OSCON programmed in languages such as Lisp, Prolog, OPS-5, and C which have been developed to provide UNIX help. These systems range from being menu-based to ones with natural language interfaces, some providing active help, intervening when they believe the user to have misconceptions, and some based on empirical studies of what users actually do while using UNIX. Further papers investigate planning and knowledge representation where the focus is on discovering what the user wants to do, and figuring out a way to do it, as well as representing the knowledge needed to do so. There is a significant focus on natural language dialogue where consultation systems can become active, incorporating user modfelling, natural language generation and plan recognition, modelling metaphors, and users' mistaken beliefs. Much can be learned from seeing how AI and CS techniques can be investigated in depth while being applied to a real test-bed domain such as help on UNIX.

Review The Ecology of Computation / Elsevier Science Ltd:

Hardbound. Propelled by advances in software design and increasing connectivity, distributed computational systems are acquiring characteristics reminiscent of social and biological organizations. This volume is a collection of articles dealing with the nature, design and implementation of these open computational systems. Although varied in their approach and methodology, the articles are related by the goal of understanding and building computational ecologies. They are grouped in three major sections. The first deals with general issues underlying open systems, studies of computational ecologies, and their similarities with social organizations. The second part deals with actual implementations of distributed computation, and the third discusses the overriding problem of designing suitable languages for open systems. All the articles are highly interdisciplinary, emphasizing the application of ecological ideas, game theory, market mechanisms, and ev.

Review Wavelet Packet Laboratory for Windows (Disc and Book) / AK Peters:

This is an interactive software tool for the Windows operating environment that allows the users to explore the properties of the wavelet packet and local trigonometric transforms by performing adapted waveform analysis on digital signals. This package includes a diskette and a users manual. The objective of adapted waveform analysis is to find the "best" representation of a digital signal through its adequate display with a relatively small number of coefficients. The new representation can then be used more effectively in applications such as signal compression and feature extraction. The software features an instructional tutorial to get you started. It is then possible to move on to designing specialized algorithms using the various transforms. The laboratory also includes an applications guide which presents the mathematical background of the program and some practical examples. The package is aimed at mathematicians, engineers and physicists alike.

Review Human-Computer Interaction: Communication, Cooperation, and Application Design, Volume 2 (Human Factors and Ergonomics) / CRC:

This volume, one of a two volume set, is from the August 1999 HCI International conference papers presented in Munich, Germany. Human Computer Interaction: Communication, Cooperation, and Application Design focuses on the informative and communicative aspects of computer use. A larger number of contributions is concerned with computer-supported cooperation using a wide variety of different techniques. In keeping with the increased focus of HCI International '99 on internet issues and aspects of the global information society, many papers in this volume are centered around information and communication networks and their implications for work, learning, and every-day activities. Due to the growing number and diversity of groups utilizing modern information technologies, issues of accessibility and design for all are becoming more and more pertinent. A range of papers in this volume address these issues and provide the latest research and development results.
