Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing
This book constitutes the refereed workshop proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing, ICA3PP 2016, held in Granada, Spain, in December 2016. The 30 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 58 submissions. They cover many dimensions of parallel algorithms and architectures, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial components and systems trying to push beyond the limits of existing technologies, including experimental efforts, innovative systems, and investigations that identify weaknesses in existing parallel processing technology.
Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics
The two-volume set LNCS 12043 and 12044 constitutes revised selected papers from the 13th International Conference on Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics, PPAM 2019, held in Bialystok, Poland, in September 2019. The 91 regular papers presented in these volumes were selected from 161 submissions. For regular tracks of the conference, 41 papers were selected from 89 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections named as follows: Part I: numerical algorithms and parallel scientific computing; emerging HPC architectures; performance analysis and scheduling in HPC systems; environments and frameworks for parallel/distributed/cloud computing; applications of parallel computing...
The Kingdom of Insignificance
In one of the first scholarly book in English on Miron Białoszewski (1922–1983), Joanna Niżyńska illuminates the elusive prose of one of the most compelling and challenging postwar Polish writers. Niżyńska’s study, exemplary in its use of theoretical concepts, introduces English-language readers to a preeminent voice of Polish literature. Niżyńska explores how a fusion of seemingly irreconcilable qualities, such as the traumatic and the everyday, imbues Białoszewski’s writing with its idiosyncratic appeal. Białoszewski’s A Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising (1977, revised 1991) describes the Poles’ heroic struggle to liberate Warsaw from Nazi occupation in 1944 as harrowing yet ordinary. His later prose represents everyday life permeated by traces of the traumatic. Niżyńska closely examines the topic of autobiography and homosexuality, showing how Białoszewski discloses his homosexuality but, paradoxically, renders it inconspicuous by hiding it in plain sight.
The Sound of Modern Polish Poetry
An illuminating new study of modern Polish verse in performance, offering a major reassessment of the roles of poets and poetry in twentieth-century Polish culture. WhatÕs in a voice? Why record oneself reading a poem that also exists on paper? In recent decades, scholars have sought to answer these questions, giving due credit to the art of poetry performance in the anglophone world. Now Aleksandra Kremer trains a sharp ear on modern Polish poetry, assessing the rising importance of authorial sound recordings during the tumultuous twentieth century in Eastern Europe. Kremer traces the adoption by key Polish poets of performance practices intimately tied to new media. In Polish hands, tape ...
Mystery and Suspense in Creative Writing
Mystery and Suspense in Creative Writing presents a systematic analysis of a very important aspect of writing by integrating it with journalistic, media, and communication studies. The book examines the specific rules for creating intrigue and suspense, and confronts their universal features with selected literary texts. The individual texts emphasize the importance of understanding the emotions through transformation of various archetypes. The rules postulated by creative writing for building drama and tension in such texts often deal with this profound issue. They are thus not an end in themselves, but actually lead to more mature writing. Therefore, they essentially contribute to developing one's creative talent and communication skills. The paradigm of creative writing serves to shape the creativity of students of various disciplines, including not only literary studies and journalism, but also such diverse areas as medicine and information technology.

The Systemic View as a Basis for Philological Thought
In The Systemic View as a Basis for Philological Thought, Olga Valentinova, Vladimir Denisenko, Sergey Preobrazhenskii, andMikhail Rybakov explore the interrelation of language material, structure, and functions in various subjects of philological research, such as grammatical systems of language, semantics, linguistic personality, literary text, and formal aspects of verse. Their systemic approach is rooted in the theories of Wilhelm von Humboldt and his followers, including Russian scholars Alexander Potebnya, Gustav Shpet, and more recently Gennadii Prokop’evichMel’nikov (1928–2000). The authors use the concept of systematicity as an opportunity to see the studied whole in developme...
Jerzy Grotowski's Journeys to the East
Jerzy Grotowski’s Journeys to the East is an unusual collection of facts, quotations, and commentaries documenting the real and metaphorical journeys of the Polish theatre director and ‘teacher of performers’ into a geographical and cultural dimension which we used to and still call the Orient. Grotowski’s contacts and meetings with the East are placed here in the context of his biography. Painstakingly researched by Grotowski’s main biographer Zbigniew Osiński, this book is necessary reading for those interested in Grotowski’s deep relationship with the East and in the inspiration he drew from its various cultures. The book will appeal to all readers who feel a need to have a glimpse of the East from the perspective of one of the main theatre reformers in the twentieth century.
Kosmos literatow
Książka "Kosmos literatów" przedstawia kierunki i grupy literackie, które związane są z miastem literatów+++. Prezentuje również wspólczesnych autorów oraz ich twórczośc. Miasto literatów +++ to jeden z najstarszych polskich portali poświęconych twórczości literackiej. Na uwagę zasluguje fakt, że zostal powolany na emigracji, w USA, przez osoby prywatne. Strony internetowe na świecie rozwijaly się bardzo szybko, dolączyly do nich autorskie, prywatne i wydawnicze, instytucjonalne. Zaczęlo to byc miejsce wymiany interaktywnej twórczości i myśli. Równolegle toczyla się dyskusja, czy nie stanie się tak, że internet calkowicie pozbawi prawa do istnienia wydawnictw książkowych, papierowych. Czy nie zastąpi książki? Trochę tak się stalo. Dlatego też, pomyslodawcy portalu miasta literatów +++ postanowili poszerzyc swą dzialalnośc i zalożyli wydawnictwo książkowe, serię wydawniczą w 2005 roku, Contemporary Writers of Poland. Obecnie książki redagują Danuta Blaszak (Orlando) i Anna Maria Mickiewicz (Londyn).
Muzyczność dzieła literackiego
Jest to książka o przejawach muzyczności dzieła literackiego, wyrastająca z tradycji polskich badań teoretycznoliterackich nad związkami literatury z muzyką i jednocześnie z tradycji zachodnioeuropejskich studiów z zakresu tzw. komparatystyki interdyscyplinarnej. Z perspektywy teoretycznoliterackiej nakreślona zostaje problematyka różnorodnych aspektów „muzyczności” - zarówno w samej literaturze (cecha tekstu literackiego), jak i we współczesnych badaniach humanistycznych (dyskurs interdyscyplinarny). Autor, proponując szczegółowe interpretacje m.in. tekstów Stanisława Barańczaka, Paula Celana, Philippe’a Sollersa, rozróżnia trzy podstawowe możliwości istnie...
