When is a computer not a computer?
We recently bought an IBM-BLOKBUSTR computer, after reading Osherson’s (1985) beguiling description of its ability to do the uncomputable. We had hoped to use it in our study of the human ability to generate music. But we ran into problems that we had not anticipated. Readers of this journal who plan to use this rather unusual machine in their research, might want to profit from our experience....
متن کاملThe Universe is not a Computer
When we want to predict the future, we compute it from what we know about the present. Specifically, we take a mathematical representation of observed reality, plug it into some dynamical equations, and then map the time-evolved result back to real world predictions. But while this computational process can tell us what we want to know, we have taken this procedure too literally, implicitly ass...

آموزش برمبنای ذخیره اطلاعات ، دانشجویان را به عنوان افرادی غیر متفکر وغیرقابل کنترل می پندارد . در همین راستا ، خواندن در سیستم آموزشی برمبنای ذخیره اطلاعات ، مهارتی پنداشته می شود که می توان آن را با یاد گرفتن انفعالی وجداگانه تعدادی از مهارتهای جزیی فراگرفت . درآن سو خواندن در سیستم آموزشی برمبنای طرح مسآله ،به عنوان رفتاری نقادانه تلقی می شود که از طریق آن می توان دنیای فرای کلمات را کشف کرد...
Your mobile computer is a stationary computer
Mobile computing consistently fails to live up to expectations. Early adopters complain about the size and resolution of displays, awkward input devices and limited bandwidth (Dix and Beale 1996). There is every reason to assume that the complaints will be exacerbated for mobile CSCW, since most collaborative computing is computationally intensive, often synchronous and visual. In addition, com...
متن کاملClassifications and Properties of Materials for Chairside Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing Dentistry: A Review
Background and Aim: Chairside computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems have become considerably more accurate, reliable, efficient, fast, and prevalent since 1985 when CEREC was introduced. The inceptive restorative material option for chairside CAD/CAM restorations was limited to ceramic blocks. Today, restorative material options have been multiplied and include me...
