Cognitive Technology
In this book the editors have gathered a number of contributions by persons who have been working on problems of Cognitive Technology (CT). The present collection initiates explorations of the human mind via the technologies the mind produces. These explorations take as their point of departure the question What happens when humans produce new technologies? Two interdependent perspectives from which such a production can be approached are adopted:• How and why constructs that have their origins in human mental life are embodied in physical environments when people fabricate their habitat, even to the point of those constructs becoming that very habitat• How and why these fabricated habit...
Language, Culture, Computation: Computing for the Humanities, Law, and Narratives
This Festschrift volume is published in Honor of Yaacov Choueka on the occasion of this 75th birthday. The present three-volumes liber amicorum, several years in gestation, honours this outstanding Israeli computer scientist and is dedicated to him and to his scientific endeavours. Yaacov's research has had a major impact not only within the walls of academia, but also in the daily life of lay users of such technology that originated from his research. An especially amazing aspect of the temporal span of his scholarly work is that half a century after his influential research from the early 1960s, a project in which he is currently involved is proving to be a sensation, as will become appare...

Questions and Information Systems
The design and functioning of an information system improve to the extent that the system can handle the questions people ask. Surprisingly, however, researchers in the cognitive, computer, and information sciences have not thoroughly examined the multitude of relationships between information systems and questions -- both question asking and answering. The purpose of this book is to explicitly examine these relationships. Chapter contributors believe that questions play a central role in the analysis, design, and use of different kinds of natural or artificial information systems such as human cognition, social interaction, communication networks, and intelligent tutoring systems. Their efforts show that data structures and representations need to be organized around the questioning mechanisms in order to achieve a quick retrieval of relevant useful information.
Case-Based Reasoning on Images and Signals
This is the first edited book that deals with the special topic of signals and images within Case-Based Reasoning (CBR). Signal-interpreting systems are becoming increasingly popular in medical, industrial, ecological, biotechnological and many other applications. Existing statistical and knowledge-based techniques lack robustness, accuracy and flexibility. New strategies are needed that can adapt to changing environmental conditions, signal variation, user needs and process requirements. Introducing CBR strategies into signal-interpreting systems can satisfy these requirements.
Organizational Mastery
Organizations must have self-awareness, and an appreciation of what they can accomplish in the face of competitive and environmental factors. An awareness of what the entity is and what it can be is the key to embarking on a journey of organizational progress. This book titled ‘Organizational Mastery: Competence–Behaviour Frameworks’ aims to lead the readers on a journey of organizational mastery. Organizational mastery is not a matter of only competitive success or filling the organization with high talent of education and experience. It is a matter of getting the individual members of an organization, whether ordinary or extraordinary, collectively supercharge the aspirations and accomplishments of an organization. Organizational mastery involves building strong competencies and positive behaviours in all its members and translating them collectively and synergistically to organizational competencies and behaviours. This book presents multiple frameworks to achieve organizational mastery. This book will be of interest to students, faculty, industry professionals and administrators.
