Toward the library of the future.

Over the past decade libraries have become increasingly aware of the revolutionary impact of developments in information technology on their key function. The new developments challenge the library's traditional role as electronic information products and services open up a previously unimaginable array of options. The author contemplates a vision of the future in which the unpredictability of the human mind interacts with an expanding array of new technologies and libraries strive to develop an information infrastructure to serve teaching and research in universities.

Computer-assisted decision making in medicine.

This article reviews the strengths and limitations of five major paradigms of medical computer-assisted decision making (CADM): (1) clinical algorithms, (2) statistical analysis of collections of patient data, (3) mathematical models of physical processes, (4) decision analysis, and (5) symbolic reasoning or artificial intelligence (AI). No one technique is best for all applications, and there is recent promising work which combines two or more established techniques. We emphasize both the inherent power of symbolic reasoning and the promise of artificial intelligence and the other techniques to complement each other.
