Computing and Communications in the Extreme
This book synthesizes the findings of three workshops on research issues in high-performance computing and communications (HPCC). It focuses on the role that computing and communications can play in supporting federal, state, and local emergency management officials who deal with natural and man-made hazards (e.g., toxic spills, terrorist bombings). The volume also identifies specific research challenges for HPCC in meeting unmet technology needs in crisis management and other nationally important application areas, such as manufacturing, health care, digital libraries, and electronic commerce and banking.

Timothy O'Sullivan, America's Forgotten Photographer
"Timothy H. O'Sullivan was one of America's great photographers as the more than 400 superb examples of his art reproduced here testify.... Until recently, many of O'Sullivan's finest photographs have mistakenly been attributed to Matthew Brady, his friend and mentor. Novelist and historian James D. Horan here sets the record straight, and through more than a decade of painstaking research, reconstructed the obcscure but remarkable life of a man of great talent and courage."--Dust jacket.
