Abstract

A summary of brain theory is given so far as it is contained within the framework of Localization Theory. Difficulties of this "conventional theory" are traced back to a specific deficiency: there is no way to express relations between active cells (as for instance their representing parts of the same object). A new theory is proposed to cure this deficiency. It introduces a new kind of dynamical control, termed synaptic modulation, according to which synapses switch between a conducting and a non- conducting state. The dynamics of this variable is controlled on a fast time scale by correlations in the temporal fine structure of cellular signals. Furthermore, conventional synaptic plasticity is replaced by a refined version. Synaptic modulation and plasticity form the basis for short-term and long-term memory, respectively. Signal correlations, shaped by the variable network, express structure and relationships within objects. In particular, the figure-ground problem may be solved in this way. Synaptic modulation introduces exibility into cerebral networks which is necessary to solve the invariance problem. Since momentarily useless connections are deactivated, interference between di erent memory traces can be reduced, and memory capacity increased, in comparison with conventional associative memory

Abstract

Summarises of a selection of the presentations and workshops under one of the main themes at the Association of Swiss Libraries and Librarians congress held in Yverdon, Sept 1998. Sessions covered comprise: workshop on stories in libraries (history of the tradition in French libraries and criteria for selecting material); oral and written traditions (presentation on continuing existence of various schools of interpretation e.g. mythological, anthropological, in relation to the importance of individual contact); and listening - reading - writing (presentation on links between these 3 forms of communication in the context of the challenge for libraries in the field of children's education)

Abstract

Reassesses the role of libraries in the context of the integration of individual countries in Europe into the European Union. As decision making passes from national to supranational bodies, there is the threat that citizens' access to information and the documents pertaining to them could become more restricted. Concludes that, to promote a discursive information environment in society, libraries should explore, evaluate, and enhance information distribution systems, facilitate citizens' access to information and encourage critical discourse through communication networks

Abstract

Data protection laws, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, regulate aspects of online personalization. However, the data protection lens is too narrow to analyze personalization. To define conditions for personalization, we should understand data protection in its larger fundamental rights context, starting with the closely connected right to privacy. If the right to privacy is considered along with other European fundamental rights that protect information and communication flows, namely, communications confidentiality; the right to receive information; and freedom of expression, opinion, and thought, these rights are observed to enable what I call a "personal information sphere" for each person. This notion highlights how privacy interferences affect other fundamental rights. The personal information sphere is grounded in European case law and is thus not just an academic affair. The essence of the personal information sphere is control, yet with a different meaning than mere control as guaranteed by data protection law. The personal information sphere is about people controlling how they situate themselves in information and communication networks. It follows that, to respect privacy and related rights, online personalization providers should actively involve users in the personalization process and enable them to use personalization for personal goals.

Abstract

The language and contents of the mass communications industry, and the products produced through and for commerical computerized information systems and networks, may appeal to relatively undeveloped aspects of our intellectual and spiritual faculties and could degrade rationalism and thus jeopardize the production of scientific knowledge. In particular, recent decades have seen a shift away from conceptual linguistic symbolism, historically used for scientific research and communication, to iconic symbolism and visual language, which may be poorly suited to scientific thought. Discusses the relationship between complex computing and telecommunications and both the content and the vehicles of learning and scientific research for the 21st century

Abstract

Attempts to circumscribe 'information' by means of etymology and the semantics of Chinese characters rather than the traditional way, and also to define several other terms related to information. Discusses the characteristics of information and its movement, and reviews some issues about information science. Information science recognizes information and uses it for making decisions and solving problems. Yi-Jeng (the Book of Changes), the oldest book about the world system, not only explains the relationship between human beings and the universe, but also focuses on how to recognize and use information to improve quality of life and avoid calamity. Derives some conclusions useful for the development of information science from Yi-Jeng. Also discusses the chaotic state caused by rapidly developing networks without a precise concept. Considers some desirable characteristics for the design of information service systems

Abstract

International students are enrolling in American colleges and universities in increasing numbers, yet little is known of their communicative experiences on USA campuses. Examines perceptions of intercultural communication competence and adaption in international students studying on an American campus. Participants in the study were 101 international students enrolled in a medium sized university in the Midwest. Results suggest that while the affective and behavioural dimensions of intercultural communication competence are related to students' satisfaction with their communication skills, talking with American students was the single most important factor in perception of communication competency and adjusting to American life. Discusses practical implications of these results for communication instruction

Abstract

This article considers the relationships among meaning generation, selection, and the dynamics of discourse from a variety of perspectives ranging from information theory and biology to sociology. Following Husserl's idea of a horizon of meanings in intersubjective communication, we propose a way in which, using Shannon's equations, the generation and selection of meanings from a horizon of possibilities can be considered probabilistically. The information-theoretical dynamics we articulate considers a process of meaning generation within cultural evolution: information is imbued with meaning, and through this process, the number of options for the selection of meaning in discourse proliferates. The redundancy of possible meanings contributes to a codification of expectations within the discourse. Unlike hardwired DNA, the codes of nonbiological systems can coevolve with the variations. Spanning horizons of meaning, the codes structure the communications as selection environments that shape discourses. Discursive knowledge can be considered as meta-coded communication that enables us to translate among differently coded communications. The dynamics of discursive knowledge production can thus infuse the historical dynamics with a cultural evolution by adding options, that is, by increasing redundancy. A calculus of redundancy is presented as an indicator whereby these dynamics of discourse and meaning may be explored empirically.
