the militarized legacy of the digital cloud: how the cloud grew out of older network technologies and politics. we may imagine the digital cloud as placeless, mute, ethereal, and unmediated. yet the reality of the cloud is embodied in thousands of massive data centers, any one of which can use as much electricity as a midsized town. even all these data centers are only one small part of the cloud. behind that cloud-shaped icon on our screens is a whole universe of technologies and cultural norms, all working to keep us from noticing their existence. in this book, tung-hui hu examines the gap between the real and the virtual in our understanding of the cloud. hu shows that the cloud grew out of such older networks as railroad tracks, sewer lines, and television circuits. he describes key moments in the prehistory of the cloud, from the game "spacewar" as exemplar of time-sharing computers to cold war bunkers that were later reused as data centers. countering the popular perception of a new "cloudlike" political power that is dispersed and immaterial, hu argues that the cloud grafts digital technologies onto older ways of exerting power over a population. but because we invest the cloud with cultural fantasies about security and participation, we fail to recognize its militarized origins and ideology. moving between the materiality of the technology itself and its cultural rhetoric, hu's account offers a set of new tools for rethinking the contemporary digital environment. show more (2)
"for high school seniors or college freshmen with a background in algebra and trigonometry, the book should provide a good introduction to matrices, vector algebra, analytical geometry, and calculus. the work's solid modern mathematical content and its personality recommend consideration as a text or as stimulating supplementary reading." -- american scientist "the book is well written and the presentation throughout achieves clarity of thought with a minimum of computational effort." -- physics today this rewarding text, beautifully illustrated by the author and written with superb clarity, offers undergraduate students a solid mathematical background and functions equally well for independent study. the five-part treatment begins with geometry, defining three-dimensional euclidean space and its axioms, the coordinate system and coordinate transformation, and matrices. a review of vector algebra covers vector properties, multiplication, the resolution of a vector along a complete set of base vectors, and vector transformations. topics in analytic geometry introduce loci, straight lines, the plane, two-dimensional curves, and the quadratic form. functions are defined, as are intervals, along with multiplicity, the slope at a point, continuity, and areas. the concluding chapter, on differential and integral calculus, explains the concept of a limit, the derivative, the integral, differential equations, and applications of the calculus to kinematics. show more (1)
although mathematics majors are usually conversant with number theory by the time they have completed a course in abstract algebra, other undergraduates, especially those in education and the liberal arts, often need a more basic introduction to the topic. in this book the author solves the problem of maintaining the interest of students at both levels by offering a combinatorial approach to elementary number theory. in studying number theory from such a perspective, mathematics majors are spared repetition and provided with new insights, while other students benefit from the consequent simplicity of the proofs for many theorems. among the topics covered in this accessible, carefully designed introduction are multiplicativity-divisibility, including the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, combinatorial and computational number theory, congruences, arithmetic functions, primitive roots and prime numbers. later chapters offer lucid treatments of quadratic congruences, additivity (including partition theory) and geometric number theory. of particular importance in this text is the author's emphasis on the value of numerical examples in number theory and the role of computers in obtaining such examples. exercises provide opportunities for constructing numerical tables with or without a computer. students can then derive conjectures from such numerical tables, after which relevant theorems will seem natural and well-motivated. show more (1)
an engaging look at how we have learned to live with innovation and new technologies through history. people have had trouble adapting to new technology ever since (perhaps) the inventor of the wheel had to explain that a wheelbarrow could carry more than a person. this little book by a celebrated mit professor--the fiftieth anniversary edition of a classic--describes how we learn to live and work with innovation. elting morison considers, among other things, the three stages of users' resistance to change: ignoring it; rational rebuttal; and name-calling. he recounts the illustrative anecdote of the world war ii artillerymen who stood still to hold the horses despite the fact that the guns were now hitched to trucks--reassuring those of us who have trouble with a new interface or a software upgrade that we are not the first to encounter such problems. morison offers an entertaining series of historical accounts to highlight his major theme: the nature of technological change and society's reaction to that change. he begins with resistance to innovation in the u.s. navy following an officer's discovery of a more accurate way to fire a gun at sea; continues with thoughts about bureaucracy, paperwork, and card files; touches on rumble seats, the ghost in hamlet, and computers; tells the strange history of a new model steamship in the 1860s; and describes the development of the bessemer steel process. each instance teaches a lesson about the more profound and current problem of how to organize and manage systems of ideas, energies, and machinery so that it will conform to the human dimension. show more (1)

designed as a method for teaching correct mathematical thinking to high school students, this book contains a brilliantly constructed series of what the authors call lapses, erroneous statements that are part of a larger mathematical argument. these lapses lead to sophism or mathematical absurdities. the ingenious idea behind this technique is to lead the student deliberately toward a clearly false conclusion. the teacher and student then go back and analyze the lapse as a way to correct the problem. the authors begin by focusing on exercises in refuting erroneous mathematical arguments and their classification. the remaining chapters discuss examples of false arguments in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and approximate computations. ideally, students will come to the correct insights and conclusions on their own; however, each argument is followed by a detailed analysis of the false reasoning. stimulating and unique, this book is an intriguing and enjoyable way to teach students critical mathematical reasoning skills. show more (1)

discrete mathematics is fundamental to computer science, and interesting, challenging problems in discrete mathematics arise in programming languages, computer architecture, networking, distributed systems, database systems, artificial intelligence, theoretical computer science, and elsewhere. this up-to-date text prepares undergraduates with four units of study: counting and listing, functions, decision trees and recursion, and basic concepts of graph theory. each unit is divided into four sections, and each section contains a selection of problems that vary in difficulty. solutions to these problems are given at the end of the text. multiple-choice questions for review appear at the end of each unit. the text offers students the mathematical language and sophistication to recognize and articulate the ideas behind these questions and to answer questions similar in concept and difficulty. those who master the necessary ideas and mathematical language to understand these review questions gain the ability to formulate, in the neutral language of mathematics, the problems that arise in various applications of computer science--a skill that enables them to discuss problems in discrete mathematics with other computer scientists and with mathematicians. show more (1)

engineers and scientists who want to avoid insidious errors in their computer-assisted calculations will welcome this concise guide to trouble-shooting. real computing made real offers practical advice on detecting and removing bugs. it also outlines techniques for preserving significant figures, avoiding extraneous solutions, and finding efficient iterative processes for solving nonlinear equations. those who compute with real numbers (for example, floating-point numbers stored with limited precision) tend to develop techniques that increase the frequency of useful answers. but although there might be ample guidance for those addressing linear problems, little help awaits those negotiating the nonlinear world. this book, geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, helps rectify that imbalance. its examples and exercises (with answers) help readers develop problem-formulating skills and assist them in avoiding the common pitfalls that software packages seldom detect. some experience with standard numerical methods is assumed, but beginners will find this volume a highly practical introduction, particularly in its treatment of often-overlooked topics. show more (1)
evaluating statistical procedures through decision and game theory, as first proposed by neyman and pearson and extended by wald, is the goal of this problem-oriented text in mathematical statistics. first-year graduate students in statistics and other students with a background in statistical theory and advanced calculus will find a rigorous, thorough presentation of statistical decision theory treated as a special case of game theory. the work of borel, von neumann, and morgenstern in game theory, of prime importance to decision theory, is covered in its relevant aspects: reduction of games to normal forms, the minimax theorem, and the utility theorem. with this introduction, blackwell and professor girshick look at: values and optimal strategies in games; general structure of statistical games; utility and principles of choice; classes of optimal strategies; fixed sample-size games with finite ω and with finite a; sufficient statistics and the invariance principle; sequential games; bayes and minimax sequential procedures; estimation; and comparison of experiments. a few topics not directly applicable to statistics, such as perfect information theory, are also discussed. prerequisites for full understanding of the procedures in this book include knowledge of elementary analysis, and some familiarity with matrices, determinants, and linear dependence. for purposes of formal development, only discrete distributions are used, though continuous distributions are employed as illustrations. the number and variety of problems presented will be welcomed by all students, computer experts, and others using statistics and game theory. this comprehensive and sophisticated introduction remains one of the strongest and most useful approaches to a field which today touches areas as diverse as gambling and particle physics. show more (1)
