Future Technology Reference List Last Change: 31/May/2018 Copyright 1996 to 2018, by Ian Mapleson Note: if you have found this file on the WWW as a result of a web search, please note that this file is a 'text-only' version of a web page which has proper web links to available article references. This file is intended for reference and searching only. Please use the following URL to access the article-linked version: http://www,sgidepot.co.uk/futrtech.html (Warning! The data section of this file uses a 132 column format!) Introduction ^^^^^^^^^^^^ As part of my research into the ramifications of advanced and future technology, I have constructed a web site called FutureTech as a point of focus for my work: http://www.sgidepot.co.uk/future.html The FutureTech web site is part of my (not yet officially started) PhD study on the ramifications of advanced computer technology, which will cover: - implications of sound/image/video manipulation/alteration/fakery, - side effects of realism in computer graphics (esp. VR games), - impact on society of advanced technologies (eg. quantum computers), - ethical issues of VR games, etc. The purpose of FutureTech is to make people more aware of the rapid advance of certain specific technologies and their impact on industry, society and the individual, by listing the very latest and best in certain areas (eg. computers, lasers, encryption, etc.), by covering the latest research advances in detail whenever possible, plus any related articles such as ethical and crime issues. This reference list will enable people to locate information and references, while those accessing my web site will be able to use the same list as a linked index to online articles and article summaries. I had intended the 'backbone' of FutureTech to be a large collection of New Scientist articles from the past few years. NS tell me that, due to copyright issues, it is not possible for me to reproduce the articles verbatim (at least not without fracturing a law or two); however, I have been told that it is acceptable for me to 'precis' articles and so this I shall do, though note that summarising articles will take longer. I have yet to write and ask Electronics & Wireless World (which often covers technical aspects in much greater detail), Byte Magazine, T3, etc. The articles referenced in this file are generally no older than 1993; however, some older articles have been included to provide a historical perspective. Reference List Format ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You will probably be curious as to the nature of the layout I've chosen for this file (132 columns max). The reason is that I want this file to be processable by grep and other pattern matching programs (grep, for those who don't know, is a UNIX command which, given an input string and a file, will output all lines in that file containing the target string). UNIX users should use a wide terminal window when doing grep operations, or redirect the output into a file. Yes, it's a pain that the file is not a nice neat 80 columns wide, but the layout gives one the ability to retrieve all article references for a particular date, issue number, author, subject, etc., using a piped series of grep commands - such an ability is a simple but powerful search tool; eg. one could do: grep FOX futrtech.txt | grep '95/' | grep S04 and get back a list of all articles written by Barry Fox during 1995 on the subject of memory and storage technologies. I think this facility far outweighs the desire for a 'neat' 80 column layout; it also makes the file alot shorter in lines by about a third. Note that most grep operations are safer with the operands enclosed in quotes. Reference format (split onto two lines just here to ensure that it can be seen all at once):
///[/]/ [F]: 'header' "subheader" Feature articles include 'F' before the page reference, and the page spread is given too, separated by an underscore (eg. Fp23_27, means Feature article on pages 23 to 27. The underscore is used so as not to conflict with the hyphen character, used in dates, when using grep). Subheaders are only given for feature articles, though if a non-feature article title is obscure, my own subheader is given in brackets () to clarify the title's meaning. The date is always day-month-year (my apologies to US readers, but month-day-year has always seemed a little illogical to me), two digits each (eg. 12-01-95 is 12th January 1995). Some magazines don't use issue numbers (they use months instead). For such publications, the issue number is replaced with a month abbreviation, ie. one of JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JLY AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC. To aid grepping, the date is given too but the day is shown as 00. The author key is given at the end of this file. To grep for just an author name, do something like this: machine% grep SVJ futrtech.txt | grep = SVJ = Svetlana Josifovska or: machine% grep John futrtech.txt | grep = BOB = Bob Johnstone EMS = John Emsley GRB = John Gribbin HRG = John Horgan JCS = John Casti JMC = John McCrone Web references use code numbers and may not include a date or issue number at all (for obvious reasons). The web reference index is at the very end of this file. Format: WRxxx, where xxx is a three digit number. Grep will help alot when looking up web references; eg.: machine% grep WR001 futrtech.txt S02/CIC/31-12-94/WR001: 1994 CPU Announcement Archives WR001 = http://infopad.eecs.berkeley.edu/CIC/announce/index-1994.html (grepping with '/WRxxx' instead of 'WRxxx' would show only titles) If an article reference is split over more than one line, then the the reference block is repeated at the start of each line. This makes grep retrieve the complete subheader during searches which find feature articles. If you're wondering why the reference format has things such as 'i' before issue numbers, it's because it allows one to do more accurate grep operations. In future editions of this file, new entries will have a '+' at the start of the appropriate line. Thus, doing a grep on the file with "+" will dump all the latest entries. Cunning plan, eh? :) Finally, regarding the reference list itself, you may cut out the section below the line of asterisks into a separate file, but if you want to pass this reference list onto someone else, please give them the _entire_ original file (ie. these instructions too). Do not distribute this file in an altered form (I don't want emails moaning about the wide format). I hope you find this reference list useful. Comments, suggestions and additions are most welcome.
