"The 15th issue of the Transactions on Computational Science journal, edited by Cong-Vinh Phan, contains six invited papers on autonomic computing, with a special focus on formal engineering methods for nature-inspired computing systems. The papers give an in-depth overview of the area and a comprehensive evaluation of various methodologies for autonomic computing."

"This book is a collection of refereed invited papers on the history of computing from the 1940s to the 1990s with one paper going back to look at Italian calculating/computing machines from the first century to the 20th century. The 22 papers cover a wide range of computing related topics such as specific early computer systems, their construction, their use and their users, software programming and operating systems, people involved in the theory, design and use of these computers, computer education, and conservation of computing technology.

"A traditional Introduction to Digital Logic course can cover all of Chaps. 1, 2, 3,and 4, selections from Chap. 5, and then all of Chaps. 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 17,and maybe selections from Chap. 19. I happen to think Chaps. 15 and 18 are of vitalimportance, and the case study presented in Chap. 20 really ties the whole booktogether, but they are not included in every intro course. What this book adds thatothers in the field leave out, through Chaps. 9, 10, and 16, is more depth forapplications in the computing domain. They can be incorporated in an intro coursegeared towards computer engineers or computer scientists, and I have used thismaterial myself, but they can also benefit these students simply by being in the textas breadth and a good reference for later use even if not directly included in thecourse."

"The book is also useful for anyone interested in knowing how ethical and socialissues such as privacy, civil liberties, security, and anonymity, and workplace issuessuch as harassment and discrimination, are affecting the new computerizedenvironment."

"The book presents the state of the art and results and also includes articles pointing to future developments. Most of the articles center around the theme of linear partial differential equations. Major aspects are fast solvers in elastoplasticity, symbolic analysis for boundary problems, symbolic treatment of operators, computer algebra, and finite element methods, a symbolic approach to finite difference schemes, cylindrical algebraic decomposition and local Fourier analysis, and white noise analysis for stochastic partial differential equations. Further numerical-symbolic topics range from applied and computational geometry to computer algebra methods used for total variation energy minimization."
