Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems: 22nd IFIP WG 1.5 International Workshop, AUTOMATA 2016, Zurich, Switzerland, June 15-17, 2016, Proceedings (Lecture Notes in Computer Science #9664)

by Matthew Cook Turlough Neary

This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 22nd IFIP WG 1. 5 International Workshop on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems, AUTOMATA 2016, held in Zurich, Switzerland, in June 2016. This volume contains 3 invited talks in full-paper length and 12 regular papers, which were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 23 submissions. The papers feature research on all fundamental aspects of cellular automata and related discrete complex systems and deal with the following topics: dynamical, topological, ergodic and algebraic aspects; algorithmic and complexity issues; emergent properties; formal language processing; symbolic dynamics; models of parallelism and distributed systems; timing schemes; phenomenological descriptions; scientific modeling; and practical applications.

The Cellular Automaton Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

by Gerard 'T Hooft

This book presents the deterministic view of quantum mechanics developed by Nobel Laureate Gerard 't Hooft. Dissatisfied with the uncomfortable gaps in the way conventional quantum mechanics meshes with the classical world, 't Hooft has revived the old hidden variable ideas, but now in a much more systematic way than usual. In this, quantum mechanics is viewed as a tool rather than a theory. The author gives examples of models that are classical in essence, but can be analysed by the use of quantum techniques, and argues that even the Standard Model, together with gravitational interactions, might be viewed as a quantum mechanical approach to analysing a system that could be classical at its core. He shows how this approach, even though it is based on hidden variables, can be plausibly reconciled with Bell's theorem, and how the usual objections voiced against the idea of 'superdeterminism' can be overcome, at least in principle. This framework elegantly explains - and automatically cures - the problems of the wave function collapse and the measurement problem. Even the existence of an "arrow of time" can perhaps be explained in a more elegant way than usual. As well as reviewing the author's earlier work in the field, the book also contains many new observations and calculations. It provides stimulating reading for all physicists working on the foundations of quantum theory.

Chaos Monkeys: Obscene Fortune and Random Failure in Silicon Valley

by Antonio Garcia Martinez

<P>Liar's Poker meets The Social Network in an irreverent exposé of life inside the tech bubble, from industry provocateur Antonio García Martínez, a former Twitter advisor, Facebook product manager and startup founder/CEO. <P>The reality is, Silicon Valley capitalism is very simple:Investors are people with more money than time.Employees are people with more time than money.Entrepreneurs are the seductive go-between.Marketing is like sex: only losers pay for it. Imagine a chimpanzee rampaging through a datacenter powering everything from Google to Facebook. Infrastructure engineers use a software version of this "chaos monkey" to test online services' robustness--their ability to survive random failure and correct mistakes before they actually occur. Tech entrepreneurs are society's chaos monkeys, disruptors testing and transforming every aspect of our lives, from transportation (Uber) and lodging (AirBnB) to television (Netflix) and dating (Tinder). One of Silicon Valley's most audacious chaos monkeys is Antonio García Martínez. <P>After stints on Wall Street and as CEO of his own startup, García Martínez joined Facebook's nascent advertising team, turning its users' data into profit for COO Sheryl Sandberg and chairman and CEO Mark "Zuck" Zuckerberg. Forced out in the wake of an internal product war over the future of the company's monetization strategy, García Martínez eventually landed at rival Twitter. He also fathered two children with a woman he barely knew, committed lewd acts and brewed illegal beer on the Facebook campus (accidentally flooding Zuckerberg's desk), lived on a sailboat, raced sport cars on the 101, and enthusiastically pursued the life of an overpaid Silicon Valley wastrel. <P>Now, this gleeful contrarian unravels the chaotic evolution of social media and online marketing and reveals how it is invading our lives and shaping our future. Weighing in on everything from startups and credit derivatives to Big Brother and data tracking, social media monetization and digital "privacy," García Martínez shares his scathing observations and outrageous antics, taking us on a humorous, subversive tour of the fascinatingly insular tech industry. <P>Chaos Monkeys lays bare the hijinks, trade secrets, and power plays of the visionaries, grunts, sociopaths, opportunists, accidental tourists, and money cowboys who are revolutionizing our world. The question is, will we survive? <P><b>A New York Times Bestseller</b>

Chinas Trauma – Chinas Stärke

by Paul U. Unschuld

Paul U. Unschuld bietet eine kulturhistorisch begründete Analyse der politischen Geschichte Chinas der vergangenen zwei Jahrhunderte. Ein erster Teil beschreibt die verschiedenen Traumata, die dem Land im 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert durch ausländische Interventionen zugefügt wurden. In der zweiten Hälfte werden die Ursachen offen gelegt, die zu einem historisch einmaligen Vorgang geführt haben: dem Wiederaufstieg eines Staates, der von Staaten einer fremden, militärisch-technisch überlegenen Kultur besiegt und an den Rand des Abgrunds gebracht wurde. In seinem Geleitwort erläutert Ulrich Sendler die Bedeutung des Wissens um diese Hintergründe für ein Verständnis der Motivation und Erfolgsaussichten der Modernisierungsstrategien Chinas in einer zunehmend digitalisierten Welt.
