Discussion Questions
Participants
- Ben Bartlett
Expert Systems: A Practical Application of Artificial
Intelligence
- Drew Dingman
Design of a multi-user cryptographic file system
- You can describe my project as 'Design of a local multi-user
cryptographic filesystem for Linux with cryptographically enforced
file permissions. Aims toward a maximum degree of user
transparency.'

- Will Dyson
An Artificial Neural Network Architecture for Musical
Instrument Recognition
- An investigation into the use of neural networks for signal
processing (especially of music)

- Corinne Lofchie
Equity and School Vouchers: A Simulation
- My project is to learn about simulation in general and
microsimulation models being used for public policy research
specificly and then to use this information to implement my own
microsimulation of a economic policy, like a welfare reform measure
or a tax cut.

System Log Analyzer

Is the Internet Making us Dummer?: A comparison of
reading comprehension between computer screens and paper
- Ben Miller
Is the pvmd a better solution for passing messages through
bottleneck's?
- I am planning on reading PVM Parallel Virtual Machine by Geist,
Beguelin, Dongarra, Jiang, Manchek, and Sunderam. Then I am going
to write some code that explores the limitations and capabilities
of the current clusterized version of PVM cluster. Also, find out
the best way to exploit the capability in multiple cluster
environments.

Automated Fingerprint Verification
- Studying and building a fingerprint recognition system.
This project would build upon work done last year on the
subject and use hardware that Charlie has aquired.

OnLine Indexes
-
Wildman Library Science Databases Links
Page of links to periodical indexes Earlham subscribes to, including
most of what's below.
-
Academic Search Elite
Indexes a large set of journals with full text for some.
-
Applied Science and Technology (ASTA)
Indexes a large set of journals with abstracts. Can search for
libraries which receive the journals
- Dialog databases. (These take a little getting used to. When you
get the log-in screen it seems you only need to click the "login"
button to proceed. (Hmm. All the links are the same. You'll need to
choose your database after you login.)
-
INSPEC Journals with abstracts. Database #2
- SciSearch
Journals with abstracts. Database #34 (for 1990 to present)
-
Internet & Personal Computing Abstracts
(I don't recommend this one.)
-
American Mathematical Society's MathSciNet Lots of papers from
a wide range of journals and conferences (not just AMS publications)
with abstracts
and, I believe in some cases, full text.(Use this link rather
than the one on the library page.)
- IEEE Computer Society
Home Page with links to search engines for CS magazines, journals and
conferences
- ACM Digital Library
All of the serial publications of the Association for Computing
Machinery. Browse and search of table of contents and abstracts is
available (with free registration). Full text is available only with
paid subscription.
- CS Preprint Archive
For what's really happening in CS, right now. These are full-text
preprints of papers which have been submitted to journals or have
appeared in less accessible places, such as conference or workshop
proceedings. It's what people are actually working on. (Or rather,
since it includes everything that has ever been posted here, it is
an evolving record of what people have been working on.)
