Ten years ago the first International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences (COINS-63) was held at Northwestern University. Since that time, computer and information sciences have witnessed a great intensification of research and education. The activities in this field have been significantly broadened and enriched. During this ten-year period, we have organized four COINS symposia to provide a forum for promoting com munication among scientists, engineers, and educators in the computer and information science field and to act as a catalyzer for stimulating creative thinking within the community of information processing. The COINS-72 symposium, which took place in Miami Beach on December 14--16,1972, under the cosponsorship of the U.S. Army Research Office, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the University of Florida, is the fourth International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences. The theme of this COINS symposium is information systems. This theme has been selected for the following reasons: Information systems have offered widespread applications in education, government, industry, and science. The bulk of research in computer and information science is now geared to the development of improved information systems. A major portion of software engineering is concerned with computer software and sophisticated information system design. It seems logical that a symposium on information systems should follow the preceding software engineering conference.
The labor movement is weak and divided. Some think that it is dying. But Julius Getman, a preeminent labor scholar, demonstrates through examination of recent developments that a resurgent labor movement is possible. He proposes new models for organizing and innovating techniques to strengthen the strike weapon. Above all, he insists that unions must return to their historical roots as a social movement.
This is a translation of the 1911 Biblisch-Talmudiesche Medizin , an extensively researched text that gathers the medical and hygienic references found in the Jewish sacred, historical, and legal literatures, written by German physician and scholar Julius Preuss (1861-1913).
Volume 1 begins with 13 wartime broadcasts, given with war at its most threatening for Australia; they are a call to courage in dark times. The broadcasts became more nuanced when they resumed, in 1945 with the war almost won, and, over the remainder of the decade, they covered a wide range of issues?the complex aftermath of war, moves towards disarmament and the control of nuclear weapons, the shift of power from Britain and Europe to the US and USSR; the evolution of the Cold War; the birth of the United Nations; the first moves to European union, and the stirrings of the fundamentalist violence that is so large a part of today's conflicts.
The situation in African as a continent is not encouraging, to those who have been exposed harsh reality of life. Those whose have seen how things work in European countries and their system of life and those in Africa are not happy either. The way of doing things in Africa as compared to European system is totally out of order. A continent were the rule of law is not upheld, criminals get away freely. Africa continent with her huge mineral resources and huge population cannot feed her population. What is a shame. What is happening to Africa leaders, all they think about is own selfish needs not the needs of the people of Africa. Unless Africa realises her position and wake up to solve her African problem, Africa would remain and would continue to be the battle ground for European to test their new ideology, medicine, philology, economic and politics agenda. Africa and Asia were classified as under developed for many centuries ago till China decided to support both continents because of the effect of slavery of the people by Europeans. With the events which crippled African development, it becomes difficult to ask the simple basic fact whether Africa can become better. YES, Africa would have their own model of single leadership where someone would unite the whole continent and the 56 heads of state would be at peace.
The years 1956–72 were as eventful as any that had gone before, and Julius Stone touched on many international issues. The hydrogen bomb and the space race were popular topics. Decolonisation and independence in Asia and Africa were covered, especially Indonesia and South Africa. He spoke about the Cold War, Vietnam War and relations with China.
In the Pacific, Australia entered the multi-lateral ANZUS treaty, consolidating the nation’s independence of Britain; Communist China pressed its claims to replace Taiwan on the Security Council; Queen Elizabeth II began her long reign; and adventurism by Egypt set the stage for the Suez crisis. Despite Stalin’s death, the Soviet grip on eastern Europe grew.
