Transitions and paradigms

Transitions and paradigms.

A t this important time of crisis, I am reminded of the work of three of my good friends: Jonas Salk, Ernest Callenbach, Tarzie Vittachi. Each has contributed something very important in trying to understand the future. Jonas Salk, involved with bacteriology, chose as a metaphor the S shaped curve. In this curve, he states that when resources are infinite the growth of bacteria is rapid. There ...

Analysis of information behavior paradigms: past and present

Introduction: Information behavior in knowledge and information science is seen as a fundamental human behavior that has been studied extensively thus far. This study include different approaches and perspectives that examined information behavior. The purpose of this article is to investigate the paradigm shift in information behavior by using the texts of this research ground. Methodology: Th...

Comparative survey between quantitative and qualitative paradigms (part II)‎

As stated in the first part of article, we have stated the four major philosophical paradigms ‎which make up the basis for knowledge(epistemology), the nature and reality(ontology) and ‎the acquisition methods of knowledge(methodology). Thus, according to each paradigm, ‎approach to knowledge is determined. ‎‏ ‏ In a more general category, we have two quantitative and qu...

Programming Paradigms and Clustering Rules Programming Paradigms and Clustering Rules

Debugging distributed applications is very di cult, due to a number of problems. To manage the inherent complexity of distributed applications, the use of abstractions is proposed. One frequently performed abstraction is to group processes into clusters. We describe an approach to derive clustering rules from well{known programming paradigms for distributed programming. Programming paradigms de...
