The research fields of "artificial intelligence and music" and "cognitive musicology" are relative newcomers to the many interdisciplinary groupings based around the centre of AI and cognitive science. They are concerned with the computational study and emulation of human behaviour with respect to music, in many aspects, and with varying degrees of emphasis on psychological plausibility. Recent publications have included work in such diverse areas as rhythm and pitch perception, performance, composition, and formal analysis. Music shares with language the property of giving access to human mental behaviour in a very direct way. As such, it has the potential to be a very useful domain for AI ...
The Bumper Book of 4000 Original Quotations by Richard T Strudwick.
This book is a result of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on New Directions for Intelligent Tutoring Systems, held in Sintra, Portugal, October 6-10, 1990. The main idea behind the workshop was to bring together scientists with different concerns about Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) in order to discuss the positive and negative aspects of the current architecture paradigm (expert module, student module, instructional module, and interface module) and, eventually, propose some modifications or radical changes to it. This was a consequence of the increasing malaise felt currently by researchers in the area of artificial intelligence and education and in particular by those concerned wit...
In October of 1992 an assembly of researchers in simulation and computer models for instruction convened in Bonas, France, to learn from one another in a non-automated environment. The event was the Advanced Research Workshop entitled The Use of Computer Models for Explication, Analysis, and Experiential Learning. Sponsored by the Scientific Affairs Division of NATO, this workshop brought together 29 leading experts in the field loosely described as instruction and learning in simulation environments. The three-day workshop was organized in a manner to maximize exchange of knowledge, of beliefs, and of issues. The participants came from six countries with experiences to share, with opinions ...
This volume of the Encyclopaedia offers a systematic introduction and a comprehensive survey of the theory of complex spaces. It covers topics like semi-normal complex spaces, cohomology, the Levi problem, q-convexity and q-concavity. It is the first survey of this kind. The authors are internationally known outstanding experts who developed substantial parts of the field. The book contains seven chapters and an introduction written by Remmert, describing the history of the subject. The book will be very useful to graduate students and researchers in complex analysis, algebraic geometry and differential geometry. Another group of readers will consist of mathematical physicists who apply results from these fields.

There are many challenges to Web site management: collecting and collating information, developing a design style, managing updates, and ensuring a consistently interesting, topical and informative site are just some of them. Whether working as a team or individually, Web site managers must frequently develop skills, solutions and services in relative isolation. This book acts as an invisible support team, with acknowledged experts sharing their experiences in specific areas of site development. As well as the expert contributions, this book includes a wealth of advice from the information community, with timely tips submitted by Web and information professionals. Contents: Introduction; Content gathering; Design and style; Structure and navigation; Accessibility and interoperability; Databases and directories; Intranet; Security; Team management; Managing copyright; Maintenance and updating; Promotion and marketing; Appendix; Index.
What the book is about This book is about the theory and practice of the use of multimedia, multimodal interfaces for leaming. Yet it is not about technology as such, at least in the sense that the authors do not subscribe to the idea that one should do something just because it is technologically possible. 'Multimedia' has been adopted in some commercial quarters to mean little more than a computer with some form of audio ar (more usually) video attachment. This is a trend which ought to be resisted, as exemplified by the material in this book. Rather than merely using a new technology 'because it is there', there is a need to examine how people leam and eommunicate, and to study diverse wa...
This is a collection of mainly psychological contributions from those with research and professional interests in co-operative learning, peer tutoring, computer-supported collaborative learning, computer-assisted learning and a variety of other interactive learning situations. Whilst coverage is mainly of learning in educational settings, there are also contributions from organizational settings, including team training in a military context, work, business and employment settings, and scientific problem-solving. secondary and higher education into the domain of work. There is also a focus on learners with special needs.
