The Year After the Riots
In August, 1929, Arabs in Palestine rose up in bloody riots against Jews. More than 130 Jews were killed, among them eight young American students. American Jews, hampered by the postwar mood of disillusionment and isolationism and by the vicious anti-Semitic attacks of the 1920s, failed to mount an effective campaign to influence either the government or public opinion. In addition, the community itself was hopelessly divided. Rival factions, some led by men who frequently sacrificed issue for ego, could not counter the anti-Zionist case. In The Year After the Riots, Naomi W. Cohen makes the first in-depth study of American responses to the riots and reveals the isolation and weaknesses of American Jewry. Official noninvolvement, anti-Semitism, and Jewish disunity are presented as an ominous prologue to the Hitler era."
Open Distributed Processing
Open Distributed Processing contains the selected proceedings of the Third International Conference on Open Distributed Systems, organized by the International Federation for Information Processing and held in Brisbane, Australia, in February 1995. The book deals with the interconnectivity problems that advanced computer networking raises, providing those working in the area with the most recent research, including security and management issues.
Digital Libraries - Current Issues
This volume is the first book coherently summarizing the current issues in digital libraries research, design and management. It presents, in a homogeneous way, thoroughly revised versions of 15 papers accepted for the First International Workshop on Digital Libraries, DL '94, held at Rutgers University in May 1994; in addition there are two introductory chapters provided by the volume editors, as well as a comprehensive bibliography listing 262 entries. Besides introductory aspects, the topics addressed are administration and management, information retrieval and hypertext, classification and indexing, and prototypes and applications. The volume is intended for researchers and design professionals in the field, as well as for experts from libraries administration and scientific publishing.
Distributed Communities on the Web
Communities are groupings of distributed objects that are capable of com- nicating, directly or indirectly, through the medium of a shared context. To support communities on a wide scale will require developments at all levels of computing, from low-level communication protocols supporting transparent - cess to mobile objects, through to distributed operating systems, through to high-level programming models allowing complex interaction between objects. This workshop brought together researchers interested in the technical issues of supporting communities. This workshop was the third in the DCW series. The ?rst two, entitled D- tributed Computing on the Web, took place in 1998 and 1999 at th...
Distributed Communities on the Web
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Distributed Communities on the Web, DCW 2002, held in Sydney, Australia in April 2002. The 25 revised full papers presented together with an introductory overview and outline of the field were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on adaptive networks, collaborative systems, languages for the Web, and adaptive distributed systems.
Mergers in Higher Education
In a comparative study of two Canadian higher education mergers, Julia Eastman and Daniel Lang examine why and how universities merge and why some mergers succeed while others fail.
Graph Algorithms And Applications 1
This book contains volumes 1-3 of the Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications (JGAA). Topics of interest include design and analysis of graph algorithms, experiences with graph algorithms, and applications of graph algorithms. JGAA is supported by distinguished advisory and editorial boards, has high scientific standards, and takes advantage of current electronic document technology. The electronic version of JGAA is available on the Web at www.cs.brown.edu/publications/jgaa/.
Middleware 2001
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the IFIP/ACM International Conference on Distributed Systems Platforms, Middleware 2001, held in Heidelberg, Germany, in November 2001. The 20 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 116 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Java, mobility, distributed abstractions, reliability, home and office, scalability, and quality of service.
Smart City 360°
This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the First EAI International Summit, Smart City 360°, held in Bratislava, Slovakia and Toronto, ON, Canada, in October 2015. The 77 carefully reviewed papers include eight conferences: The Bratislava program covered the Conference on Sustainable Solutions beyond Mobility of Goods (SustainableMoG 2015), the MOBIDANUBE conference which strengthens research in the field of mobility opportunities and within Danube strategy, and the conference on Social Innovation and Community Aspects of Smart Cities (SmartCityCom 2015). In parallel the SmartCity360 Toronto included five conferences addressing urban mobility (SUMS), sustainable cities (S2CT), smart grids SGSC), wearable devices for health and wellbeing SWIT Health), and big data (BigDASC).
Software and Data Technolgoies
This book contains the best papers of the Third International Conference on Software and Data Technologies (ICSOFT 2008), held in Porto, Portugal, which was organized by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Communication and Control (INSTICC), co-sponsored by the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC), in cooperation with the Interdisciplinary Institute for Collaboration and Research on Enterprise Systems and Technology (IICREST). The purpose of ICSOFT 2008 was to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in information technology and software development. The conference tracks were “Software Engineering”, “Information Systems and Data Manag...
