Introduction Chosing the right representation for your data is at the heart of efficient AI programming as we are reminded in the book edited by Daniel G. Bobrow and Allan Collins, titled "Representation and Understanding: Studies in Cognitive Science". However, quite often, the good old list will do or at least is a good place…
LISP and AI programming Lisp was conceived of as a language for symbolic computation and became the main "AI" language, especially for expert systems, NLP and other types of Pattern Directed Inference Systems. AI, at the time when the first LISP was implemented (John McCarthy 1960), was very different from the AI that is in…
This presentation describes the hardware and software environment for experimenting with the Parallel Rendering of Webpages. The hardware consists of a cluster of Single Board Computers (SBCs) which run a number of application servers that previously ran in the cloud (RHC and Pythonanywhere). Each application server was associated with a single application which was either…
This series of blog posts describes the Parrallella-LISP source code and how to build applications requiring a combination of symbolic and numeric computation. To this end, two example applications will also be blogged about. The first application represents the meaning of documents with vector semantics and the second, extracts contours from binary images.

POPLOG's core language is POP-11, which was developed by Robin Popplestone, a pioneer in the fields of machine intelligence and robotics. Thus, when the British government created the Alvey Programme as a…
Some twenty years ago I set up a company to configure parallel computers for image processing applications. Unfortunately, demand wasn't very high because of the poor price/performance ratio and the advent of RISC processors which surpassed it. I was therefore very excited when about a year ago Adapteva created a kickstarter project to offer affordable…
Some time ago I posted a list of 54 words each of which can be either a noun, verb, adjective or adverb. Recently, I managed to extend this list by two words to 56. The amended list is included below along with the definitions of each word. A presentation made from some of the words…
There is growing evidence that the English are dissatisfied with current arrangements for the territorial government of the UK in general, and England in particular. Why should this be so? Part of the problem is to do with maintaining the continuity of the Ancient and Geographic Counties and their affiliations. As an example, consider the…
Some time ago I posted a list of words each of which can be classified as either a noun, verb, adjective or adverb. Here is an update to this list so that it now contains 54 words. The definitions for each word are listed at the end of this post. back best better bitter broadside…
