History of Nordic Computing
Computing in the Nordic countries started in late 1940s mainly as an engineering activity to build computing devices to perform mathematical calculations and assist mathematicians and engineers in scientific problem solving. The early computers of the Nordic countries emerged during the 1950s and had names like BARK, BESK, DASK, SMIL, SARA, ESKO, and NUSSE. Each of them became a nucleus in institutes and centres for mathematical computations programmed and used by highly qualified professionals. However, one should not forget the punched-card machine technology at this time that had existed for several decades. In addition, we have a Nordic name, namely Frederik Rosing Bull, contributing to ...
History of Nordic Computing 2
The First Conference on the History of Nordic Computing (HiNC1) was organized in Trondheim, in June 2003. The HiNC1 event focused on the early years of computing, that is the years from the 1940s through the 1960s, although it formally extended to year 1985. In the preface of the proceedings of HiNC1, Janis Bubenko, Jr. , John Impagliazzo, and Arne Sølvberg describe well the peculiarities of early Nordic c- puting [1]. While developing hardware was a necessity for the first professionals, quite soon the computer became an industrial product. Computer scientists, among others, grew increasingly interested in programming and application software. P- gress in these areas from the 1960s to the ...
Software Development and Reality Construction
The present book is based on the conference Software Development and Reality Construction held at SchloB Eringerfeld in Germany, September 25 - 30, 1988. This was organized by the Technical University of Berlin (TUB) in cooperation with the German National Research Center for Computer Science (GMD), Sankt Augustin, and sponsored by the Volkswagen Foundation whose financial support we gratefully acknowledge. The conference was an interdisciplinary scientific and cultural event aimed at promoting discussion on the nature of computer science as a scientific discipline and on the theoretical foundations and systemic practice required for human-oriented system design. In keeping with the conversa...
Prototyping
Prototyping is an approach used in evolutionary system development. In this book, the authors show which forms of prototyping can be employed to tackle which problems. They take a look at the tools used in everyday software development with a view to determining their suitability for prototyping, and attempt to elucidate prototyping as a methodological concept. Part I of the book looks at prototyping as an approach for constructing and evaluating models. Traditional approaches and phase-oriented life cycle plans are discussed. Prototyping overcomes fundamental problems associated with life cycle plans. The authors present their own concept of evolutionary system development. Part II shows to what extent technical support of evolutionary system development is possible. Various tools for supporting prototyping are discussed and prospective trends are indicated. Criteria are listed to help the reader choose between the various development environments currently available or likely to become available in the near future. Case studies are used to illustrate how prototype construction can be integrated in software projects.

Menetetty vuosikymmen
Mistä me muistamme kolmannen vuosituhannen toisen vuosikymmenen? Digitaalinen vallankumous jatkui ja kalliit statussymbolit älypuhelimina tulivat kaikkien käyttöön. Ilmiö oli Euroopassa ja Suomessa eläen globaalina koettu. Sitä se ei toki ollut. Väkilukumme kasvoi, etenkin Afrikassa kohti kahdeksatta miljardiaan. Nokia menetti asemiaan ja taloudessa törmäsimme lamaan, eurooppalaiseen finanssikriisiin. Ilmasto, onnettomuudet ja terrori puhuttivat. Suuret ikäluokat tulivat eläkeikään ja se näkyi ja kuului kaikessa. Virtuaalikulttuuri ja sosiaalinen media - populismi politiikassa, olivat osa samaa ilmiötä. Sota Afganistanissa päättyi, mutta jatkui muualla. Turkki siirtyi vah...
Suomen juhlavuoden 2017 blogi- ja esseekirja - Suomi 100
Suomen itsenäisyyden juhlavuosi muistetaan muustakin kuin tuhansista juhlaan liittyvistä tapahtumista ja kesästä vailla helteitä. Ne helteet ja ilmastomuutoksen oikullisuus odottivat tulevaa kesäämme. Sen sijaan menneen vuoden tapahtumat terrori-iskuineen ja veritekoineen jatkuivat ja saavuttivat myös Suomen Turun. Mediayhteiskunnan ja sen korporaatioiden kouristelu jatkui, siinä missä sosiaalisen median kasvun valtava suosio, aggressiot, vihapuhe, populismin monet muodot, demokratian ja puoluelaitosten kriisi, tekoäly ja robotisaatio. Toki kaikki tämä oli ennustettua ja siitä varoitettukin. Arvojen, normien ja moraalin muutoksista ja ristiretkestämme uuden paradigmaisen maail...
