Affective computing is a fascinating new area of research emerging in computer science. It dwells on problems where "computing is related to, arises from or deliberately influences emotions" (Picard 1997). Following this new research direction and considering the human element as crucial in designing and implementing interactive intelligent interfaces, affective computing is now influencing the way we shape, design, construct, and evaluate human-computer interaction and computer-mediated communcation. This book originates from a workshop devoted to affective interactions. It presents revised full versions of several papers accepted in preliminary version for the workshop and various selectively solicited papers by key people as well as an introductory survey by the volume editor and interview with Rosaling Picard, a pioneer researcher in the field. The book competently assesses the state of the art in this fascinating new field.

Scalable Input/Output: Achieving System Balance
<b>The major research results from the Scalable Input/Output Initiative, exploring software and algorithmic solutions to the I/O imbalance.</b><p>As we enter the "decade of data," the disparity between the vast amount of data storage capacity (measurable in terabytes and petabytes) and the bandwidth available for accessing it has created an input/output bottleneck that is proving to be a major constraint on the effective use of scientific data for research. <i>Scalable Input/Output</i> is a summary of the major research results of the Scalable I/O Initiative, launched by Paul Messina, then Director of the Center for Advanced Computing Research at the California Institute of Technology, to explore software and algorithmic solutions to the I/O imbalance. The contributors explore techniques for I/O optimization, including: I/O characterization to understand application and system I/O patterns&#x3b; system checkpointing strategies&#x3b; collective I/O and parallel database support for scientific applications&#x3b; parallel I/O libraries and strategies for file striping, prefetching, and write behind&#x3b; compilation strategies for out-of-core data access&#x3b; scheduling and shared virtual memory alternatives&#x3b; network support for low-latency data transfer&#x3b; and parallel I/O application programming interfaces.</p>
