..., the issues about how to implement such kind of services are investigated, the concepts of user interests and their transitions are defined; the structure of UIDB and how to create it are explored, and the analysis and mining of the data in server log files to help dynamically updating UIDB are discussed...

... of the nature of time and space quantifying allowed us to find the basic equation of the space dynamics of the Universe. Its analysis gives the answer to the question: what is the nature of gravity, speed of light and gravitational constant. © MCB UP Limited 2003 Cybernetics Dynamics Space Time...

...Andrew Wuensche DDLab is interactive graphics software for creating and visualizing discrete dynamical networks, and studying their behavior in terms of both space‐time patterns and basins of attraction. The networks can range from cellular automata to random Boolean networks. This article provides...

...Guy Jumarie It is shown that if one assumes, as a consequence of biological cycles and cultural background, that human systems are subject to random time different from the standard physical time, then one comes across dynamical systems which are necessarily of fractal nature. Two illustrative...
