Complementarity and convergence of heuristic evaluation and usability test: a case study of universal brokerage platform
Authors: Lai-Chong Law, Ebba Thora Hvannberg
Venue: Proceedings of the second Nordic conference on Human-computer interaction (2002)

The aim of this paper is twofold (i) comparing the effectiveness of two evaluation methods, namely heuristic evaluation and usability testing, as applied to an experimental version of the UNIVERSAL Brokerage Platform (UBP), and (ii) inferring implications from the empirical findings of the usability test. Eight claims derived from previous research works are reviewed with the data of the current study. While the complementarity and convergence of the results yielded by the two methods can be confirmed to a certain extent, no conclusive explication about their divergence can be obtained, especially the issue whether usability problems reported lead to failures in real use. One of the significant implications thus drawn is to conduct meta-analysis on a sufficient number of well-designed and professionally performed empirical works on usability evaluation methods.
Solving Data Mining Problems Using Pattern Recognition Software with Cdrom, 1st edition
Authors: Unica Technologies Inc, Unica Technology Incorporated Staff
Venue:  (1997)

:Besides explaining the most current theories, Solving Data Mining Problems through Pattern Recognition takes a practical approach to overall project development concerns. The rigorous multi-step method includes defining the pattern recognition problem; collection, preparation, and preprocessing of data; choosing the appropriate algorithm and tuning algorithm parameters; and training, testing, and troubleshooting. Pattern classification, estimation, and modeling are addressed using the following algorithms: linear and logistic regression, unimodal Gaussian and Gaussian mixture, multilayered perceptron/backpropagation and radial basis function neural networks, K nearest neighbors and nearest cluster, and K means clustering. While some aspects of pattern recognition involve advanced mathematical principles, most successful projects rely on a strong element of human experience and intuition. Solving Data Mining Problems through Pattern Recognition provides a strong theoretical grounding for beginners, yet it also contains detailed models and insights into real-world problem-solving that will inspire more experienced users, be they database designers, modelers, or project leaders.
Fourfield; Computers, Art and the Fourth Dimension, 1st edition
Authors: Tony Robbin, Linda Dalrymple Henderson, Rudy V. B. Rucker
Venue:  (1992)

:Although a fascination with the fourth dimension and the search for ways of depicting it have engaged artists for more than a century, only the computer makes such depiction truly possible. Using the computer as a tool, painter and sculptor Tony Robbin has devoted his life as an artist to this quest. Fourfield is both a record of that quest and an eloquent testament to the value of its fulfillment. The understanding and appreciation of space as presented in works of art have changed over the centuries, and Robbin suggests that the time is ripe for our perception of space to undergo another radical shift. He makes clear that "seeing" space in three dimensions is merely a culturally based assumption, no more and no less valid than apprehending space in any other way. This realization frees us to understand space much as a computer might--as fluid, ever changing, and dynamic. It has also freed Robbin to create exhilarating and amazing works, derived from his original blending of art, science, and mathematics. Fourfield is a firsthand account of the artist's visual, intellectual, and philosophical evolution, which has taken him from paintings in a traditional two-dimensional format to those in which rods extending from the canvas and the shadows they produce present a visual experience of four dimensions. Most recently, Robbin has created sculpture that incorporates quasicrystals ("crystals" made up of nonrepeating patterns) and whose appearance varies with the viewer's position and the orientation of light. This experimentation is suggesting startling new directions in architecture as well. To assist the reader in comprehending this seemingly magical world, Fourfield comes with an image of a pattern of four-dimensional cubes, known as hypercubes, and special glasses through which to view it. Also included is an order form for a diskette containing a number of the computer programs developed by Robbin as he explored the world of computers and art. Written with a vo

Hard Drive: Bill Gates and the Making of the Microsoft Empire, 1st edition
Authors: James Wallace, James Erickson
Venue:  (1993)

:The true story behind the rise of a tyrannical genius, how he transformed an industry, and why everyone is out to get him.In this fascinating exposé, two investigative reporters trace the hugely successful career of Microsoft founder Bill Gates. Part entrepreneur, part enfant terrible, Gates has become the most powerful  and feared  player in the computer industry, and arguably the richest man in America. In Hard Drive, investigative reporters Wallace and Erickson follow Gates from his days as an unkempt thirteen-year-old computer hacker to his present-day status as a ruthless billionaire CEO. More than simply a "revenge of the nerds" story though, this is a balanced analysis of a business triumph, and a stunningly driven personality. The authors have spoken to everyone who knows anything about Bill Gates and Microsoft  from childhood friends to employees and business rivals who reveal the heights, and limits, of his wizardry. From Gates's singular accomplishments to his equally extraordinary brattiness, arrogance, and hostility (the atmosphere is so intense at Microsoft that stressed-out programmers have been known to ease the tension of their eighty-hour workweeks by exploding homemade bombs), this is a uniquely revealing glimpse of the person who has emerged as the undisputed king of a notoriously brutal industry.

An experimental assignment on random processes
Authors: Michael Mitzenmacher
Venue: ACM SIGACT News (2001)

Although I still generally use standard problem sets in my theory classes, I find myself experimenting more and more with alternatives, including more open-ended assignments. One big motivation for this change is to put some science back in my computer science class, by making assignments more like laboratory exercises in chemistry and biology: students have to experiment to find an answer. One of the great things about studying randomness is that the results sometimes lend themselves quite naturally to experimental assignments, as is the case for the assignment I describe here. Before going on, I will present the assignment.

The Existence of a Bush-Type Hadamard Matrix of Order 324 and Two New Infinite Classes of Symmetric Designs
Authors: Zvonimir Janko, Hadi Kharaghani, Vladimir D. Tonchev
Venue: Designs, Codes and Cryptography (2001)

A symmetric 2-(324, 153, 72) design is constructed that admits a tactical decomposition into 18 point and block classes of size 18 such that every point is in either 0 or 9 blocks from a given block class, and every block contains either 0 or 9 points from a given point class. This design is self-dual and yields a symmetric Hadamard matrix of order 324 of Bush type, being the first known example of a symmetric Bush-type Hadamard matrix of order 4n^2 for n > 1 odd. Equivalently, the design yields a strongly regular graph with parameters v=324, k=153, \lambda=\mu=72 that admits a spread of cocliques of size 18. The Bush-type Hadamard matrix of order 324 leads to two new infinite classes of symmetric designs with parametersv=324(289^m+289^{m-1}+\cdots+289+1), \quad k=153(289)^m, \quad \lambda=72(289)^m,andv=324(361^m+361^{m-1}+\cdots+361+1), \quad k=171(361)^m, \quad \lambda=90(361)^m,where m is an arbitrary positive integer.
A Fuzzy Necessary Optimality Condition for Non-Lipschitz Optimization in Asplund Spaces
Authors: Huynh Van Ngai, Michel Théra
Venue: SIAM Journal on Optimization (2002)

In this paper, we consider a general optimization problem in the broad class of Asplund spaces. We derive a new necessary optimality condition in the so-called Lagrangian "fuzzy form" without standard Lipschitz conditions. We also give a chain rule for Fréchet subdifferentials and subdifferential representations of Fréchet normals to constrained sets.
A system for interactive acquisition and administration of geometric data for thematic map production
Authors: Klaus Tuerke
Venue: ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics (1976)

Most computer assisted information systems for planning purposes are designed to produce thematic maps as output. Graphic data processing, on the other hand, has not yet reached the degree of perfection already achieved in other fields of EDP, e.g. commercial and statistical applications. The author and his collegues are integrating cartographic data and presentation techniques gradually into an information system.Within the system being described, the geometric data base is considered as a line network. The edges of the network are represented by strings of orthogonal coordinates (Segment definitions). A unique identifier is assigned to each coordinate string, and the areal units are defined by a sequence of edge identifiers (Polygon definitions).In order to obtain error-free files, strict rules have to be observed and a high degree of accuracy has to be achieved.For this purpose, an interactive system - DIGNET - has been developed to fullfill these objectives: (1) guide the operator through the digitizing session, (2) ask for the appropriate input, (3) create the reference tables, (4) react to erroneous input and operation, (5) detect digitizer malfunctions, (6) allow immediate graphic replay of the digitized data.In order to facilitate the manipulation of the boundary network files, a number of utility programs have been added to the DIGNET-System; among them (1) DIGEDI - to prepare maps for digitzing, (2) DIGLIST - to list all results from digitizing sessions, (3) DIGMERGE - to merge two or more submaps into one final map.

An Exact Bound on Epsilon for Nonemptiness of Epsilon Cores of Games
Authors: Alexander Kovalenkov., Myrna Holtz Wooders
Venue: Mathematics of Operations Research (2001)

We consider collections of games with and without side payments described by certain natural parameters. Given the parameters p describing a collection of games and a lower boundn0 on the number of players, we obtain a bound e 0 (p,n0) so that, for any e = e 0(p,n0), all games in the collection with at leastn0 players have nonempty e-cores. Examples are provided in which the bound on e is met. For parameter values ensuring that there are many close substitutes for most players and that relatively small groups of players can realize nearly all gains to collective activities, for games with many players the bound on e is small.
