While powerful, these models demand vast datasets and significant computational resources, making the... 2     AgeTech for staying connected Astell A., Clayton D., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2025. 128 pp.  Type: Book (3031870301) In the words of Robert Browning, “Grow old along with me!” [1].... 3     Numbers and computers Kneusel R., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, Cham, Switzerland, 2015. 231 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-319172-59-0) When writing software, we need a full, detailed understanding of how computers work with numbers. Inadequate understanding can have dire consequences. In Numbers and computers, Kneusel mentions two egregious examples: the explos... 4     ENIAC in action: making and remaking the modern computer Haigh T., Priestley M., Rope C., The MIT Press, Cambridge, MA, 2016. 360 pp.  Type: Book (978-0-262033-98-5), Reviews: (1 of 4) If you have ever wondered why a central processing unit’s (CPU’s) register is called an accumulator, consider ENIAC’s 20 accumulators. Each (rack-sized) one could store eight decimal digits. Working simila... 5     Algorithms for computing backbones of propositional formulae Janota M., Lynce I., Marques-Silva J. AI Communications 28(2): 161-177, 2015.  Type: Article The backbone (also called “necessary variables” or “fixed assignments”) of a propositional formula φ is the set of literals that are true in all models of the formula. Put another way, t... 6      We, programmers: a chronicle of coders from ADA to AI Martin R. (ed), Pearson, Hoboken, NJ, 2024. 464 pp.  Type: Book (9780135344262) When this book was presented as available for review, I jumped on it.
