Cyber1.org is a group of people dedicated to the preservation of the world's first computer-based community, PLATO. Cyber1.org is made possible by the VCampus Corporation , who graciously donated rights to their CYBIS software system. Cyber1.org thanks VCampus and their CEO Nat Kannan not only for their generosity, but also for having the wisdom to preserve one of the most important pieces of computer history. PLATO is a computer-based educational system created at the University of Illinois Control Systems Laboratory. The idea was first discussed at the University in 1959, in a long series of meetings led by Chalmers Sherwin. At these meetings it was concluded that computer-based education should not be pursued. However, the director at the time, Daniel Alpert, got together with Donald Bitzer to see if Don could quickly come up with a prototype that could serve as proof-of-concept. This prototype, running on an Illiac-I, became PLATO. The project was subsequently funded in 1960 by government money from the Joint Services Program. The lab grew and became the Computer-based Education Research Laboratory (CERL). PLATO eventually spawned a variety of commercial ventures, starting in 1975 with

70. Plato The goal of the plato project is to develop software engineering tools and techniques that help modern programmers create more reliable and secure component http://www.cs.princeton.edu/sip/projects/plato/

Defining Modern Logics for Modern Programmers The goal of the Plato project is to develop software engineering tools and techniques that help modern programmers create more reliable and secure component software systems. In order to accomplish our goal, we are developing a system of logical type refinements (LTR) that conservatively extend type systems for modern programming languages like Java, C# and ML. LTR guarantee properties of programs as they are written, linked together, executed and evolve through all aspects of the software lifecycle. More specifically, we are developing LTR that allow programmers to specify a rich of collection of domain-specific invariants involving the contents of component data structures, the ordering and effect of operations specified in an interface, the safety of components acquired from different sources, and the distribution of data and computations over a network. LTR are specified in a concise notation familiar to programmers. In addition, sophisticated refinement checking and refinement inference techniques allow programmers to minimize the number of annotations they need to put on their programs.

71. Plato's Republic Learn about plato s Republic using this exceptional online study guide with links to multiple resources on CTCWeb. http://ablemedia.com/ctcweb/netshots/republic.htm

Table of Contents Philosophical Background of the Hellenistic Age Republic Genre - Philosophical or Socratic Dialogue After the death of Socrates , a number of his associates tried to re-create in a literary medium the philosophical conversations which he had engaged in with his followers. Their purpose was to give a more accurate picture of Socrates than that presented by his detractors and also, as in the case of Plato , to use these re-created conversations as a vehicle for philosophic investigation. Xenophon wrote a work called Recollections [of Socrates], which contains Socratic conversations interspersed with narrative by the author. In addition, Xenophon wrote a Symposium 'Dinner Party', which shares the same title and theme (love) with a Platonic dialogue, but the dramatic setting and the characters (except for Socrates) are different. A follower of Socrates named Aeschines also wrote Socratic dialogues, of which only fragments remain. Of course, the best known works in this genre are the twenty-three dialogues written by Plato, of which the Republic is an important example.

Plato Book VII of The Republic The Allegory of the Cave Here's a little story from Plato's most famous book, The Republic . Socrates is talking to a young follower of his named Glaucon, and is telling him this fable to illustrate what it's like to be a philosopher a lover of wisdom: Most people, including ourselves, live in a world of relative ignorance. We are even comfortable with that ignorance, because it is all we know. When we first start facing truth, the process may be frightening, and many people run back to their old lives. But if you continue to seek truth, you will eventually be able to handle it better. In fact, you want more! It's true that many people around you now may think you are weird or even a danger to society, but you don't care. Once you've tasted the truth, you won't ever want to go back to being ignorant! [Socrates is speaking with Glaucon [Socrates:] And now, I said, let me show in a figure how far our nature is enlightened or unenlightened: Behold! human beings living in a underground den, which has a mouth open towards the light and reaching all along the den; here they have been from their childhood, and have their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move, and can only see before them, being prevented by the chains from turning round their heads. Above and behind them a fire is blazing at a distance, and between the fire and the prisoners there is a raised way; and you will see, if you look, a low wall built along the way, like the screen which marionette players have in front of them, over which they show the puppets.

Topics Home Catalog African Age of Reason ... Euripides Plato Virgil Ovid Procopius Lucian ... Classics Dialogues of Plato Plato, the greatest philosopher of ancient Greece, was born in Athens in 428 or 427 B.C.E. to an aristocratic family. He studied under Socrates, who appears as a character in many of his dialogues. He attended Socrates' trial and that traumatic experience may have led to his attempt to design an ideal society. Following the death of Socrates he travelled widely in search of learning. After twelve years he returned to Athens and founded his Academy, one of the earliest organized schools in western civilization. Among Plato's pupils was Aristotle . Some of Plato's other influences were Pythagoras, Anaxagoras, and Parmenides. Plato wrote extensively and most of his writings survived. His works are in the form of dialogues, where several characters argue a topic by asking questions of each other. This form allows Plato to raise various points of view and let the reader decide which is valid. Plato expounded a form of dualism, where there is a world of ideal forms separate from the world of perception. The most famous exposition of this is his metaphor of the Cave, where people living in a cave are only able to see flickering shadows projected on the wall of the external reality. This influenced many later thinkers, particularly the Neoplatonists and the Gnostics , and is similar to views held by some schools of Hindu dualistic metaphysics.

75. Plato: The Allegory Of The Cave plato, the most creative and influential of Socrates disciples, wrote dialogues, in which he frequently used the figure of Socrates to espouse his own http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~wldciv/world_civ_reader/world_civ_reader_1/plato.html

Plato: The Allegory of the Cave, from The Republic Judging by this passage, why do you think many people in the democracy of Athens might have been antagonistic to Plato's ideas? What does the sun symbolize in the allegory? Is a resident of the cave (a prisoner, as it were) likely to want to make the ascent to the outer world? Why or why not? What does the sun symbolize in the allegory? And now, I said, let me show in a figure how far our nature is enlightened or unenlightened:Behold! human beings living in an underground den, which has a mouth open towards the light and reaching all along the den; here they have been from their childhood, and have their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move, and can only see before them, being prevented by the chains from turning round their heads. Above and behind them a fire is blazing at a distance, and between the fire and the prisoners there is a raised way; and you will see, if you look, a low wall built along the way, like the screen which marionette players have in front of them, over which they show the puppets. I see.

76. LSA: A Solution To Plato's Problem This phenomenon offers an ideal case in which to study a problem that has plagued philosophy and science since plato twentyfour centuries ago, http://lsa.colorado.edu/papers/plato/plato.annote.html

A Solution to Plato's Problem: The Latent Semantic Analysis Theory of Acquisition, Induction and Representation of Knowledge Thomas K. Landauer Department of Psychology University of Colorado, Boulder Boulder, CO 80309 Susan T. Dumais Information Sciences Research Bellcore Morristown, New Jersey 07960 Abstract How do people know as much as they do with as little information as they get? The problem takes many forms; learning vocabulary from text is an especially dramatic and convenient case for research. A new general theory of acquired similarity and knowledge representation, Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA), is presented and used to successfully simulate such learning and several other psycholinguistic phenomena. By inducing global knowledge indirectly from local co-occurrence data in a large body of representative text, LSA acquired knowledge about the full vocabulary of English at a comparable rate to school-children. LSA uses no prior linguistic or perceptual similarity knowledge; it is based solely on a general mathematical learning method that achieves powerful inductive effects by extracting the right number of dimensions (e.g., 300) to represent objects and contexts. Relations to other theories, phenomena, and problems are sketched. Prologue Overvue The Problem of Induction The Latent Semantic Analysis Model ...
