1000 tulosta hakusanalla Eliza Sarah Graham
German-born Essie Kroecker is a precocious and talented child, raised in bucolic Salamanca, New York. She is the apple of her father's eye, the bane to her overly religious grandparents, and sidekick to her rebellious older brother. But the world is changing in confusing ways for a child. The rumblings of the First World War are beginning to infiltrate her peaceful and secure life, and she has more questions than there are answers. Why have her family, her German neighbors, and even her pastor-grandfather, suddenly become people of suspicion? Why are they on the outside looking in? Gentle Spirits-Fragile Hearts is a story of history's impact on a child, then a young woman, born with an uncanny wisdom and perceptive insights. The question is, will she be gentle of spirit and frail of heart like her mother, or will she garner an inner strength and overcome these times into which she was born?

Born into the privileged world of the fox-hunting gentry, Eliza's life was comfortable and secure. It was too secure for a young woman with imagination and energy. Marriage was the only respectable way she could escape the confines of her sheltered life but that had several disadvantages. Legally, as a bride, she would become her husband's chattel, her happiness dependent upon his whim. Since her choice of potential husbands was limited to farmer cousins who lived in the same remote valley, matrimony did not seem a promising means of flight. That was until Lieutenant Lewis Agassiz kissed her under the mistletoe. For her father, Lewis's subsequent marriage proposal raised questions of the widower's financial affairs. Eliza's uncertainties were different. How could she ever take the place of Lewis's beautiful wife Did she want to live in a home already established by another woman More importantly to the Eliza though, was whether Lewis would fulfil her dreams of exciting exploits and adventures. Those considerations became insignificant when Eliza realised she had fallen in love. Eliza was the wife of Lewis Agassiz, Esquire, of Stour Lodge. She was born at the beginning of the nineteenth century -- her adult years lived under Queen Victoria's reign. She never made history or headlines -- she was too well-behaved for that. Yet despite the restrictions that were placed upon English women of those times, Eliza's life was creative, energetic and immensely productive. The impact that Sarah Eliza Agassiz had on the lives of her thirteen children and many grandchildren continues through her living descendants today, her third, fourth and fifth great grandchildren. This fact-rich account follows the experiences of an ordinary middle class woman's journey through life in the Victorian Era. The practicalities of Eliza's world, the blessings and the challenges she faced, although dissimilar to those faced by modern women, are nevertheless interesting and worthy of recording.

Die Telekommunikationsbranche in Deutschland hat sich seit ihrer Liberalisierung als einer der dynamischsten Markte in vielerlei Hinsicht gezeigt. Ein Bereich jedoch, in dem die Liberalisierung keine Dynamik entfaltet hat, ist der Teilnehmeranschlussbereich, die sogenannte Letzte Meile. Dort ist die Einfuhrung von Wettbewerb aufgrund der vertikalen Integration des ehemaligen Monopolisten erheblich erschwert worden. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist, die Problematik der 'Letzten Meile' aus technischer und netzoekonomischer Sicht zu analysieren, eine Marktabgrenzung vorzunehmen sowie das Wettbewerbspotential zu untersuchen. Dabei setzt sich die Untersuchung insbesondere mit Netzzugangsregelungen theoretisch auseinander. Zudem wird ein kurzer Einblick in die Regulierungspraxis gegeben, die aus einer politoekonomischen Perspektive kritisch beleuchtet wird.

How the infamous ELIZA chatbot transformed ideas about AI and society's response to them. As we reach the 60th anniversary of ELIZA's public debut, Inventing ELIZA offers the first comprehensive critical analysis of Joseph Weizenbaum's groundbreaking chatbot system through the lens of critical code studies. Drawing upon extensive archival research at MIT, Stanford, and UCLA, this book presents the rediscovered original source code of ELIZA alongside previously unseen scripts (missing for decades), revealing a far more sophisticated system than previously documented. Sarah Ciston, David Berry, Anthony Hay, Mark Marino, Peter Millican, Arthur Schwarz, Jeff Shrager, and Peggy Weil trace ELIZA's development (1965-1968), reveals that Weizenbaum created a chatbot within a conversational programming environment with previously unknown innovations well ahead of its time. Through close reading of both code and paratexts, the book reconstructs ELIZA's conceptual evolution and situates it within the historical context of early AI development.
