:This medieval document provides a unique insight into the social and economic history of late 15th century Dublin. The roll gives the names and occupations of 1,425 people, both men and women, who were granted the right to vote in municipal elections during a period of political upheaval and change. Many of these newly-enfranchised citizens derived their right to freedom by birth or on marriage, and the roll gives the names of fathers, husbands and wives, allowing the researcher to build up a pattern of family and social connections, and providing the genealogist with valuable information from five centuries ago.

Extracting macroscopic information from Web links
Authors: Mike Thelwall
Venue: Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology (2001)

Much has been written about the potential and pitfalls of macroscopic Web-based link analysis, yet there have been no studies that have provided clear statistical evidence that any of the proposed calculations can produce results over large areas of the Web that correlate with phenomena external to the Internet. This article attempts to provide such evidence through an evaluation of Ingwersen's ([1998]) proposed external Web Impact Factor (WIF) for the original use of the Web: the interlinking of academic research. In particular, it studies the case of the relationship between academic hyperlinks and research activity for universities in Britain, a country chosen for its variety of institutions and the existence of an official government rating exercise for research. After reviewing the numerous reasons why link counts may be unreliable, it demonstrates that four different WIFs do, in fact, correlate with the conventional academic research measures. The WIF delivering the greatest correlation with research rankings was the ratio of Web pages with links pointing at research-based pages to faculty numbers. The scarcity of links to electronic academic papers in the data set suggests that, in contrast to citation analysis, this WIF is measuring the reputations of universities and their scholars, rather than the quality of their publications.

Writing Programs that Run EveryWare on the Computational Grid
Authors: Rich Wolski, John Brevik, Graziano Obertelli, Neil Spring, Alan Su
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (2001)

The Computational Grid has been proposed for the implementation of high-performance applications using widely dispersed computational resources. The goal of a Computational Grid is to aggregate ensembles of shared, heterogeneous, and distributed resources (potentially controlled by separate organizations) to provide computational ¿power¿ to an application program. In this paper, we provide a toolkit for the development of globally deployable Grid applications. The toolkit, called EveryWare, enables an application to draw computational power transparently from the Grid. It consists of a portable set of processes and libraries that can be incorporated into an application so that a wide variety of dynamically changing distributed infrastructures and resources can be used together to achieve supercomputer-like performance. We provide our experiences gained while building the EveryWare toolkit prototype and an explanation of its use in implementing a large-scale Grid application.

A practical approach to sample-path simulation optimization
Authors: Michael C. Ferris, Todd S. Munson, Krung Sinapiromsaran
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

We propose solving continuous parametric simulation optimizations using a deterministic nonlinear optimization algorithm and sample-path simulations. The optimization problem is written in a modeling language with a simulation module accessed with an external function call. Since we allow no changes to the simulation code at all, we propose using a quadratic approximation of the simulation function to obtain derivatives. Results on three different queueing models are presented that show our method to be effective on a variety of practical problems.
On to C
Authors: Patrick Henry Winston
Venue:  (1994)

:Read this book if you want to add C to your programming-language repertoire. You can use this book to learn the essentials of the language and to prepare for real-world work. You learn the key concepts as features are added to a short, yet representative C program. The final version of the program reads information from a file describing stock trades and predicts the next-day's price using a straight-line extrapolation, thereby reflecting the popularity of C in applications involving data analysis. As you see the program evolve, you learn how to: define functions; benefit from function abstraction; solve ordering problems with function prototypes; process data from files; create structures and objects; use pointer parameters to avoid argument copying; use pointer parameters to alter values; create new structure objects at run time; define constructors, readers, and writers; benefit from data abstraction; use enumerations and type synonyms to improve readability; use unions to capture class distinctions; use bits to record state information; prevent memory leaks; access command-line arguments; organize and compile multiple-file programs; and much more. Special Features: Illustrates each new idea through an improvement to a short, yet complete program. There are no nonsense programs or rapid shifts among unrelated examples; summarizes key points in the form of easily mastered if-then rules; emphasizes the virtues of function abstraction and data abstraction; and helps you to start a personal library of general-purpose, templatelike patterns.
Connotations of problem solving
Authors: Srinath Srinivasa
Venue: ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes (2001)

A lot of interest has been focused on analysis and design models during information system (IS) design. But fundamentally, information systems are tools of "problem solving" where the term "problem solving" can take on different connotations. In this paper, we introduce seven different connotations of problem solving that describe IS functionality. Such a knowledge can help the system designer in transitioning between the analysis and design phases.

The manager pool: patterns for radical leadership
Venue: Software Patterns Series (2001)

As savvy high-tech managers know, the traditional industrial models of management do not apply to the fluid and dynamic software development environment. Instead, technical management must formulate a more flexible model of management that can grow and change with the technology. The patterns paradigm that has transformed much of object-oriented software development can be applied to the management side of development too. The patterns approach enables managers to identify, understand, and handle recurring management challenges that are common to many software development projects.

Volume rendering multivariate data to visualize meteorological simulations: a case study
Authors: Joe Kniss, Charles Hansen, Michel Grenier, Tom Robinson
Venue: Proceedings of the symposium on Data Visualisation 2002 (2002)

High resolution computational weather models are becoming increasing complex. However, the analysis of these models has not benefited from recent advancements in volume visualization. This case study applies the ideas and techniques from multi-dimensional transfer function based volume rendering to the multivariate weather simulations. The specific goal of identifying frontal zones is addressed. By combining temperature and humidity as a multivariate field, the frontal zones are more readily identified thereby assisting the meteorologists in their analysis tasks.
Summarization as feature selection for text categorization
Authors: Aleksander Kolcz, Vidya Prabakarmurthi, Jugal Kalita
Venue: Proceedings of the tenth international conference on Information and knowledge management (2001)

We address the problem of evaluating the effectiveness of summarization techniques for the task of document categorization. It is argued that for a large class of automatic categorization algorithms, extraction-based document categorization can be viewed as a particular form of feature selection performed on the full text of the document and, in this context, its impact can be compared with state-of-the-art feature selection techniques especially devised to provide good categorization performance. Such a framework provides for a better assessment of the expected performance of a categorizer if the compression rate of the summarizer is known.
