Distributed Computing: Principles and Applications M. L. Liu, First Edition, Addison Wesley Publishing Company, Boston, MA, 2003 448 pages, $89.40 Language: English ISBN: 0201796449 Distributed computing, one of the most highly implemented computer theories, is a computing methodology in which tasks are collaborated among collections of interconnected, independent computers. The World Wide Web, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) and collaborative application such as mobile agent systems are some common examples of distributed computing. With the recent growth of net-centric applications, it is essential to equip undergraduate students with the necessary knowledge to attend to and fulfill such demands. As the author suggested in the preface, the purpose of Distributed Computing: Principles and Applications is to introduce to undergraduate students the different paradigms of distributed computing, as well as to provide programming examples to reinforce topics within each paradigm. The book is organized into two key parts: chapter 1 through chapter 3 educates readers about the fundamental concepts and the various paradigms of distributed computing; the remaining 9 chapters further explains each paradigm in greater detail and promotes clarification through code examples. At the end of each chapter, the author supplies a summary of the significant subjects as well as a set of exercise problems. Relevant references are also provided to direct interested readers to further resources. In the first part of the book (chapter 1, 2 and 3), the author first defines distributed computing and then presents the principles of distributed computing from different perspectives including operating system, network and software engineering. To ensure that readers wholly comprehend the communication mechanism behind distributed computing, the author discusses interprocess communications thoroughly. The first part ends with a classification of various paradigms of distributed applications with respect to their level of abstraction. The trade-offs among the different levels of abstractions are also discussed to educate readers on some of the issues that need to be considered when choosing an appropriate paradigm. The second part of the book (chapter 4s through 12) provides in-depth discussions of each paradigm. Examples and sample codes are used to help illustrate the communication mechanism of each paradigm in each chapter. Chapter 4 demonstrates distributed computing using the socket API, the lowest level of abstraction, and illustrates this with both datagram and stream-mode sockets of Java socket APIs. Built on top of the socket API, the client-server paradigm is the most commonly implemented approach in networked environments. The Internet is one such example; and chapter 9 and 11 further elaborates on the different applications that exist on the Internet. Chapter 6 discusses group communication involving multicast mechanisms. The author then focuses on the distributed objects in chapter 7, 8, and 10, where she covers Remote Procedure Call (RPC), Remote Method Invocation (RMI), Common Object Request Broker Architecture (COBRA) and Java Interface Definition Language (IDL). Finally, the book ends with an overview of the current advanced distributed computing areas including message queue system, mobile agents, network services, object spaces and collaborative computing. Overall, this book is more informative than practical, in that it attempts to cover many significant distributed computing methodologies without thoroughly explaining everything to ensure the concepts can be grasped by undergraduate students. Although there are code examples in most chapters, they are intended for illustration purposes and lack challenge. Exercises in the end of each chapter are reasonable, but could include more advanced problems to encourage students to seek additional relevant knowledge beyond the book. References are adequate and can be improved with more recent studies. It may also be good to introduce well known distributed computing projects such as the BOINC to students. Despite some grammar imperfection, the book itself does provide excellent introduction materials to students with little or none knowledge of distributed computing.

Farsça, Osmanlı eğitim sisteminde XV. yüzyıldan başlayarak XX. yüzyılın ikinci çeyreğine kadar ders olarak okutulmuş bir dildir. XV. yüzyılın başlarından itibaren Farsça, tasavvufi düşüncenin gelişimi ve Mesnevî ’nin anlaşılması amacıyla tekkelerde de ders olarak okutulmuştur. Abdullah Salâhaddîn-i Uşşâkî adıyla da tanınan ve Uşşâkiyye tarikatının üçüncü piri olarak bilinen Salâhî, XVIII. yüzyılda Osmanlılar devrinde yaşamış Halvetî-Uşşâkî şeyhlerindendir. Hem Arapçaya hem de Farsçaya hakimiyeti olan âlim, şair ve şarih bir zattır. Salâhî’nin eski kaynaklarda toplamda bugünkünden daha çok eserinin olduğu söylense de günümüzde 12 adet telif eser, 11 adet şerh ve 8 adet tercümesiyle toplamda 31 adet eserinin olduğu bilinmektedir. Osmanlı Türkçesiyle yazılan Mecma-i fenn-i zerâfet , Salâhî’nin Farsça gramer konusunda kaleme aldığı telif eserlerinden biridir. Eser, erken dönemlerde sözlüklerde açıklanan gramer konularının düzenlenerek bir kitapta toplanması ve Arapça yazılan Farsça gramerlerin de anlaşılmasındaki zorluğun giderilmesi amacıyla Osmanlı Türkçesiyle yazılmıştır. Mecma-i fenn-i zerâfet adlı eserde müellifin istifade ettiğini söylediği kaynaklar, kütüphanelerdeki kataloglarda farklı adlarla kaydedilmiş ve eserlerle ilgili bilgiler eksik verilmiştir. Bu makalede, Farsçanın tarihi seyri konusunda kısa bir bilgiden sonra hem Salâhî’nin Mecma-i fenn-i zerâfet adlı eser hem de istifade ettiğini söylediği Kavâid-i Fürs ile Mefâtîh-i deriyye adlı eserlerle ilgili bilgiler verilmiş ve Mecma-i fenn-i zerâfet adlı eser tanıtılmıştır.

Serûc’da doğan Aḥmed b. İbrâhîm es-Serûcî (ö. 710/1310), küçük yaşlarda Şam’a oradan da Mısır’a göç etmiş ve burada yaşamını sürdürmüştür. VII/XIII yüzyılın ikinci çeyreği ile VIII/XIV. yüzyılın başları arasında Bahrî Memlükler döneminde yaşamıştır. Bu dönemde ilmî faaliyetler ve ilimle meşgul olanlar her zaman teşvik edilmiş ve âlimler toplumda önemli görevlere getirilmiştir. Bu bağlamda es-Serûcî de dönemin ilim merkezi olan Mısır’daki medreselerde ve camilerde devrin önemli âlimlerinden ders alarak yetişmiş ve burada birçok talebe yetiştirmiştir. Ayrıca kadılık vazifesinden dolayı bir süre dönemin siyaseti içerisinde aktif bir rol oynamıştır. Hususiyetle dinî ilimlerdeki bilgisiyle öne çıkan âlim, bu alanda telif ettiği ve el-Ġâye adını verdiği eserle gerek kendi devrinde gerekse kendinden sonraki asırlarda adından çokça söz ettirmiştir. Hanefi fıkhına dair kaleme alınan el-Hidâye üzerine yazılan bu eser, ilk mufassal Hidâye şerhi olması hasebiyle de önemlidir. Devrin önde gelen âlimlerinden aklî ve naklî ilimleri öğrenen müellif, bu ilimlerin yanı sıra Arap dili ve edebiyatı alanında da derin bilgi sahibidir. Hocalığı ve kadılığı gibi meziyetlerinin yanısıra müellifin Arap edebiyatına olan ilgisinin en güzel örneği de hiç şüphesiz bu alana dair yazmış olduğu ve tespit edilen tek eseri Tuḥfetu’l-Aṣḥâb ve Nuzhetu Ẕevi’l-Elbâb ’dır. Çok sayıda kaynağın toplanılmasıyla telif edilen bu çalışmada ayet, hadis ve şiirlerden getirilen şevâhidlerle birlikte klasik nesir ve nazım geleneğine ait birçok türe yer verilmiştir. Bu eser, Arap dili ve edebiyatının yanı sıra dinî ilimlerle birlikte tarih, edebiyat tarihi, tıp, sosyoloji ve coğrafya gibi muhtelif alanlara dair bilgiler de içermektedir. Bu çalışmada ilk olarak müellifin hayatı ve eserleri hakkında bilgi verilecek akabinde şimdiye kadar bilim dünyasında hakkında hiçbir çalışma yapılmamış olan Tuḥfetu’l-Aṣḥâb ve Nuzhetu Ẕevi’l-Elbâb adlı yazma halindeki eseri müellife aidiyet, yazma eser nüshaları, telif sebebi, muhteva, yararlanılan kaynaklar ve metod gibi açılardan incelenecektir.

The Author died in Paris in 1967 by the hand of Roland Barthes, in his (in)famous essay “The Death of the Author”. The outcry following this tragic decease was immense; critics were mourning and cursing Barthes to damnation for his audacity to kill such an important figure. Many would argue that this had everything to do with the spirit of the time: les evenements, intellectual revolts and student protests in France in May 1968, given that the essay was only then first published in France. Yet, this is a misconception: Barthes published ‘The Death of the Author’ one year earlier in Aspen, an American magazine. More so, it may be argued that this death certificate of The Author was merely an epitome, something that was about to be foreseen and based on ideas that sprouted earlier in Barthes’ career. As I want to argue, the roots of the death of the author can be traced back to On Racine, published as early as 1963, perhaps his metaphorical deathbed. Later publications in between 1963 and 1967 should thus show the slow moribundity of the Author. In this paper, I want to explore the progression of the death of the Author, beginning with On Racine and ending with ‘The Death of the Author’; the genesis of the idea should be traceable throughout Barthes’ earlier publications.
