3D Studio MAX 3: Visual QuickStart Guide
Authors: Michele Matossian
Venue:  (1999)

:The market for skilled 3D artists is booming, and the tool-of-the-trade most in demand is 3D Studio Max, from Kinetix (a subsidiary of Autodesk). This pricey but ubiquitous program is the choice of professional artists (working on Windows NT or 95) everywhere for creating 3D images for print and screen, plus animations for television, movies, and the Web. The addition of the dimension of depth makes 3D software exponentially more complex than normal graphics software, both conceptually and operationally. Factor in the additional dimension of time in the animation component and the complexities go through the roof. This book, like all books in Peachpit's VQS series will be an excellent introduction to 3D Studio Max R2 for beginners, incoporating lots of step-by-step instructions, with plenty of visual examples. The author is an experienced 3D Studio Max teacher as well as an accomplished digital artist and her illustrations will be unusually appealing for a book on this subject.

Analysis of the virtual enterprise using distributed supply chain modeling and simulation: an application of e-SCOR
Authors: Michael W. Barnett, Charles J. Miller
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

Supply chains are large systems consisting of many entities interacting in complex ways. The challenge faced by companies is how to design and manage such systems. Modeling and simulation enables analysis of complex systems but as the model increases in size and realism, or when it is necessary to locate model components geographically, a distribution capability is needed. The High Level Architecture (HLA), developed by the Department of Defense provides the infrastructure needed for large-scale distributed simulation. The supply chain management field is characterized by a lack of standards and definitions. The Supply Chain Council has established a standard way to examine and analyze supply chains with their Supply Chain Operations Reference, or SCOR model. The SCOR model provides a standard way of viewing a supply chain, a common set of manipulate-able variables and a set of accepted metrics for understanding the dynamic behavior of supply chains. The e-SCOR modeling and simulation environment is based on SCOR and adds discrete event simulation capabilities. This paper describes the architectural components used to implement a distributed supply chain modeling tool (e-SCOR) and applications of e-SCOR that demonstrate how enterprises are modeled and analyzed to determine the validity of alternative, virtual business models.

Relatively computable functions of real variables
Venue: Computing (2001)

In this paper we introduce the notion of relative computability for continuous real valued functions. It combines the notions of relative recursiveness for number theoretic functions with the theory of computability for continuous real valued functions. Most of the space is devoted to investigating the degrees of unsolvability of those mathematical operations which lead from the computable to the noncomputable. The paper concludes with Theorem 5, which asserts that the derivatives of computable C1 functions on compact intervals are at most semi-computable.

Data mining with sparse grids using simplicial basis functions
Authors: Jochen Garcke, Michael Griebel
Venue: Proceedings of the seventh ACM SIGKDD international conference on Knowledge discovery and data mining (2001)

Recently we presented a new approach [18] to the classification problem arising in data mining. It is based on the regularization network approach but, in contrast to other methods which employ ansatz functions associated to data points, we use a grid in the usually high-dimensional feature space for the minimization process. To cope with the curse of dimensionality, we employ sparse grids [49]. Thus, only O(hn-1nd-1) instead of O(hn-d) grid points and unknowns are involved. Here d denotes the dimension of the feature space and hn = 2-n gives the mesh size. We use the sparse grid combination technique [28] where the classification problem is discretized and solved on a sequence of conventional grids with uniform mesh sizes in each dimension. The sparse grid solution is then obtained by linear combination. In contrast to our former work, where d-linear functions were used, we now apply linear basis functions based on a simplicial discretization. This allows to handle more dimensions and the algorithm needs less operations per data point.We describe the sparse grid combination technique for the classification problem, give implementational details and discuss the complexity of the algorithm. It turns out that the method scales linearly with the number of given data points. Finally we report on the quality of the classifier built by our new method on data sets with up to 10 dimensions. It turns out that our new method achieves correctness rates which are competitive to that of the best existing methods.

On objects and events
Authors: Patrick Th. Eugster, Rachid Guerraoui, Christian Heide Damm
Venue: ACM SIGPLAN Notices (2001)

This paper presents linguistic primitives for publish/subscribe programming using events and objects. We integrate our primitives into a strongly typed object-oriented language through four mechnisms: (1) serialization, (2) multiple subtyping, (3)closures, and (4) deferred code evaluation. We illustrate our primitives through Java, showing how we have overcome its respective lacks. A precompiler transforms statements based on our publish/subscribe primitives into calls to specifically generated typed adapters, which resemble the typed stubs and skeletons by the rmic precompiler for remote method invocations in Java
Managing an Inherited NetWare Network
Authors: Michael Joseph Miller
Venue:  (1995)

:Managing an Inherited NetWare Network is designed for network administrators facing the real deal: how to handle an existing network that may be marginally understood, poorly documented, and sorely in need of improvement. This practical handbook takes a logical, start-to-finish approach to the process of managing an inherited network. You'll focus on network goals, rather than isolated features of NetWare, as you learn to identify server hardware and software, identify client hardware and software, develop a disaster-recovery plan, understand the network's role in the organization, resolve security issues, fix common network problems, find available resources and answers to networking questions, implement upgrades and patches, and plan for future needs. Written by a professional network administrator, this insightful guide also explores the human aspects of network administration, from dealing with network users, technical staff, and vendors, to selling your network ideas to top management.

CCF: Collaborative Computing Frameworks
Authors: V. Sunderam, S. Y. Cheung, M. Hirsch, S. Chodrow, M. Grigni, A. Krantz, I. Rhee, P. Gray, S. Olesen, P. Hutto, J. Sult
Venue: Proceedings of the 1998 ACM/IEEE conference on Supercomputing (CDROM) (1998)

CCF (Collaborative Computing Frameworks) is a suite of software systems, communications protocols, and tools that enable collaborative, computer-based cooperative work. CCF constructs a virtual work environment on multiple computer systems connected over the Internet, to form a Collaboratory. In this setting, participants interact with each other, simultaneously access and operate computer applications, refer to global data repositories or archives, collectively create and manipulate documents or other artifacts, perform computational transformations, and conduct a number of other activities via telepresence. Research issues addressed in this project include problem solving environments and methodologies for laboratory and instrument-based scientific disciplines, and computer science issues in heterogeneous distributed systems. New approaches are being investigated and developed for fast multiway communication, robust geographically distributed data management methodologies, high-performance computational transforms inlined within collaboration sessions, and related auxiliary issues such as active documents, security, archival storage, and experiment management and control. In this paper, we discuss the design philosophy and systems rationale behind CCF, describe the major subsystems of the collaborative computing environment, and discuss the salient features of the system.

FPGA interconnect planning
Authors: Amit Singh, Malgorzata Marek-Sadowska
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 international workshop on System-level interconnect prediction (2002)

We present an FPGA interconnect planning methodology based on the empirical measure known as Rent's Rule[8]. We show that allocation of wire segment lengths during the FPGA architecture planning phase can be improved by taking into account intercon¿nect complexities of the target circuits. We utilize previous work on netlist circuit fanout distribution[12] to estimate the FPGA seg¿mentation and employ a timing-driven placement and routing approach to get a minimized area-delay product. Our results indi¿cate that for logic clusters of various complexities, embedded in hierarchical FPGAs, our interconnect planning technique can improve circuit performance by an average of 10% and the area-delay product by an average of 29% over typical commercial FPGAs.

Towards the convergence between hypermedia authoring languages and architecture description languages
Authors: Débora Christina Muchaluat-Saade, Luiz Fernando Gomes Soares
Venue: Proceedings of the 2001 ACM Symposium on Document engineering (2001)

This paper presents a detailed comparison between the structural elements and definitions provided by Hypermedia Authoring Languages and Architecture Description Languages (ADL). ADLs are formal languages that can be used for representing a software architecture. Although it may look trivial to make a direct correspondence between ADL and hypermedia structural entities, such as components to nodes and connectors to links, interesting differences can be identified when observing them more closely. Based on the comparison results, a structural meta-model that can be specialized for use in both domains is proposed. Furthermore, the paper also presents an example of how the meta-model can be used for describing hypermedia document structures, showing how some features found in ADLs can be applied to hypermedia authoring languages. Our final goal is to integrate the contributions of document engineering and software architecture engineering and take advantage of the advances of one area in the other one. The current paper is the first step towards this direction.
