Ña Fabiana stacked the plastic bags full of clothes on a chair as we dis- cussed the final items that remained from her investment the previous year. She spread out the last of her inventory: soft microfleece gloves for children and adults, brightly colored striped socks with individual toes, winter coats, and children’s turtleneck shirts. Some of the clothing had become stained in storage …
This paper describes and evaluates privacy-friendly methods for extracting quasi-social networks from browser behavior on user-generated content sites, for the purpose of finding good audiences for brand advertising (as opposed to click maximizing, for example). Targeting social-network neighbors resonates well with advertisers, and on-line browsing behavior data counterintuitively can allow t…
This book tells of a journey taken by a group of service users who had attracted a diagnosis of personality disorder, a journey that spans 20 years. It is an account that aspires to show the inner world of personality disorder from the perspective of service users. It aims to examine the process of recovery for those with this diagnosis and it suggests evidence-based ways forward for support …
Social networking sites (SNS) affordances for persistent interaction, collective generation of knowledge, and formation of peer-based clusters for knowledge sharing render them useful for developing constructivist knowledge environments. However, notwithstanding their academic value, these environments are not necessarily insulated from the exercise of academic/ power. Despite a growing corpus …
Industry experience indicates that the ability to incre- mentally expand data centers is essential. However, ex- isting high-bandwidth network designs have rigid struc- ture that interferes with incremental expansion. We present Jellyfish, a high-capacity network interconnect which, by adopting a random graph topology, yields it- self naturally to incremental expansion. Somewhat sur- prisingly…
This book contains primarily papers presented at the seminar held at the inauguration of the doctoral program in psychology in May 1994, at the University of Tromsø, which is the youngest university in Norway and the northernmost university in the world (if one discounts the university branch on Svalbard at 88 degrees north). In fact, the University of Tromsø is situated on a coastal island i…
The history of humanity is essentially linked to the management of the Earth s surface. In the beginning, unknown variables and the environment controlled the nature of human settlements. Today, as we approach the end of the second millennium, the uncontrolled expansion of human settlements is modifying the environment and seriously threatening the sustainability of the whole planet. Human acti…
In 2006, Lacanians from North America, South America, and Europe, gathered in Georgia, at the University of West Georgia and at Emory University for the seventh annual conference of the Affiliated Psycho- analytic Workgroups (APW) which was devoted to the topic of addictions as approached from a Lacanian psychoanalytic orientation. The conference participants explored the complexity of the prob…
Economic competition is global, focused, and unrelenting; there is no such thing as a “safe” job. Whatever it was that formed the basis of your state’s economy 50, 25, or even 10 years ago is now at risk; and whatever it is that is coming next is hard to see or define, let alone prepare for. This came home to me in the late 1990s when the bloom of the dot com bubble was beginning to fade…
JavaGram is a new technology specifically designed to support agile development. As a language, it shares many of Java’s features – syntax, platform independence, strong type checking, object orientation, and garbage collection – but also offers capabilities that make it a much easier-to-use and productive platform, such as declarative programming, automatic remoting, asynchronous method …

If you have tried to exercise regularly and have failed, then this is your book. Why? Because this …
As the plan to write this book began to develop, a few central points became immediately apparent. First, the concept of violence represents a vast collection of behaviors and cognitions within a theoretical domain whose parameters are extremely ambiguous. Of course, there are distinctions between the types of violence and their nature, which can be clearly articulated, but the causal and corre…
Bluetooth is a technology for short range wireless data and realtime two-way voice transfer providing data rates up to 3 Mb/s. It can be used to connect almost any device to another device. Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as mobile phones, headsets, PCs, laptops, printers, mice, and keyboards, are widely used all over the world. Already in 2006, the one billionth Bluetooth device was shipped, a…
Information storage is a central pillar of information technology. A large quantity of digital information is being created every moment by individual and corporate consumers of IT. This information needs to be stored, protected, optimized, and managed. Not long ago, information storage was seen as only a bunch of disks or tapes attached to the back of the computer to store data. Even today, o…
Telecommunications has been defined as a technology concerned with communicating from a distance, and we can categorize it in various ways. Figure 1.1 shows one possible view of the different sections of telecommuni- cations. It includes mechanical communication and electrical communica- tion because telecommunications has evolved from a mechanical to an electrical form using increasingly more …
Network security is the identification and mitigation of undesirable information flow. Understanding the impacts, ramifications, and options re- quires a basic background in general computer security processes, network theory, and for some protocols, a basic understanding of cryptography. This knowledge can be used both offensively and defensively. Ethics determine whether the knowledge is used…

In this paper we produce an algorithm for pre- senting messages to users in social networks that integrates reasoning about the message, the author, the recipient and the social network. Our proposed model was derived on the basis of immersion within three different existing social networking environments, that of Coursera, Reddit, and medical self-help groups such as PatientsLikeMe. We first …
