AVIEN Malware Defense Guide for the Enterprise

Syngress Publishing, 2007

Members of AVIEN (the Anti-Virus Information Exchange Network) have been setting agendas in malware management for several years: they led the way on generic filtering at the gateway, and in the sharing of information about new threats at a speed that even anti-virus companies were hard-pressed to match. AVIEN members represent the best-protected...

The Ethics of Computer Games

MIT Press, 2009

Despite the emergence of computer games as a dominant cultural industry (and the accompanying emergence of computer games as the subject of scholarly research), we know little or nothing about the ethics of computer games. Considerations of the morality of computer games seldom go beyond intermittent portrayals of them in the mass media as training...

Computational Linguistics and Talking Robots: Processing Content in Database Semantics

Springer, 2011

The practical task of building a talking robot requires a theory of how natural language communication works. Conversely, the best way to computationally verify a theory of natural language communication is to demonstrate its functioning concretely in the form of a talking robot, the epitome of human–machine communication. To...

Information Flow and Knowledge Sharing, Volume 2 (Capturing Intelligence)

Elsevier Limited, 2008

Our goal in this book is to present our conceptualization of information and of knowledge, and to clarify the distinctions between these two concepts. Indeed, they are more than concepts. These two words convey a plurality of meanings and have a deep character that goes beyond pure conceptualizations. By emphasizing their distinctions, we do not...

Real-Time Stability Assessment in Modern Power System Control Centers

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

This book answers the need for a practical, hands-on guide for assessing power stability in real time, rather than in offline simulations. Since the book is primarily geared toward the practical aspects of the subject, theoretical background is reduced to the strictest minimum. For the benefit of readers who may not be quite familiar with the...

The Reflexivity of Language and Linguistic Inquiry: Integrational Linguistics in Practice (Routledge Advances in Communication and Linguistic Theory)

Routledge, 2018

This book explores the reflexivity of language both from the perspective of the lay speaker and the linguistic analyst. Linguistic inquiry is conditional upon linguistic reflexivity, but so is language. Without linguistic reflexivity, we would not be able to make sense of everyday linguistic communication, and the idea of a...
