    Extractions: Subject gateways are subject specific search engines on the internet. They allow users to search for information on a particular topic. Subject gateways provides well organised, annotated links to a wide range of high quality information selected for its potential use. Subject gateways also called as subject index gateways, virtual libraries, clearing houses, subject trees and pathfinders. these are highly developed and large databeses that specialise in particular subject areas. Subject gateways tend to be developed by experts or expert organisations in the subject areas and aim to help the user locate high quality, core internet resources. Subject gateways is special since they exercise greater discrimination in indexing of web pages, and do not include personal home pages and web sites that are considered to be of little or no academic value.

83. Launching The Math-Net Page
    of the MathNet project in germany that aimed at the creation of a distributedinformation and communication system for the german mathematical community.  
    http://www.math-net.org/launching-Math-Net.html
    
    Extractions: One major aim of the International Mathematical Union (IMU) in the field of information and communication is to improve the worldwide access to mathematical information for the mathematical community and, generally, for everybody interested in mathematics. For that reason, the IMU established its Committee on Electronic Information and Communication (CEIC) in 1998. The activities of CEIC comprise all aspects of electronic information and communication in mathematics. Math-Net Pages are an instrument to make the information of mathematical institutions electronically available in a well-structured way. Additional Math-Net Services facilitate search and access. The IMU invites all institutions to join the Math-Net activities and to install Math-Net Pages. The concept of Math-Net Pages evolved in the framework of the Math-Net project in Germany that aimed at the creation of a distributed information and communication system for the German mathematical community. This project focussed on: the development of a human infrastructure (appointment of information coordinators at all participating institutions) recommendations for the institutions to structure their local Web sites (which resulted in the initial concept of the Math-Net Page) building up of services (such as MPRESS for preprints

84. Niels Henrik Abel A Short But Influential Life

    Extractions: The only existing authentic portrait of Niels Henrik Abel Norway's best known mathematician, Niels Henrik Abel, died at the age of 26. Despite his short life, he contributed a great deal to his subject and his name is inextricably linked with the world of mathematics. At the age of 13, he moved from Gjerstad in southeast Norway to Christiania [presentday Oslo] and started at the Cathedral School. Excelling in mathematics, he scraped through in the other subjects, showing every sign of being fed up with school. Berlin and beyond Most important work mislaid He arrived in Paris in July 1826, but the stay there was a disappointment. France's most important mathematicians showed little or no interest in meeting this unknown Norwegian. Nevertheless, his time there proved very productive and he wrote a piece on algebraic integrals which was later to be recognised as his masterpiece. In order to be accepted and printed, it had to be assessed by mathematicians at the French Academy of Sciences. Abel waited the entire autumn, but his piece was mislaid. It was not printed until 15 years later, after considerable pressure from the Norwegian government. The person responsible for printing it then stole the manuscript, which remained lost until 1952 when it resurfaced in Florence! The New Year of 1827 saw Abel returning to Crelle in Berlin and then on to Norway in May. In addition to his mathematical work, he took home some continental habits. His friends and colleagues noticed that his clothes were more modern and that he had "learnt some manners".

    Extractions: Already at the beginning of the 18th century, the German mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz aspired to achieving objectivity in human affairs by logic and computation. Today we are somewhat closer to achieving Leibniz's dream when he wrote: ... when controversies arise, it will not be a work of learned disputation between two philosophers, but between two computists. It will be enough for them to take pen in hand, sit at the abacus, and say to each other, as friends: ``Let us calculate!'' We begin with the problem of initiating change. Everyone has the experience of thinking some government policy, business policy, school policy or social custom is wrong and ought to be changed and feeling frustrated by his inability to communicate his objections or even to learn what the rationale of the policy is or who is in charge. Even if the people responsible for the policy are nominally reachable, if the office is high, they have hundreds of letters or emails proposing change. Often the person who can be reached hasn't the power, and the people with the power are responsible for too many policies to pay attention. In many matters no one person has the power of initiative. In matters of social custom, no group, not even Congress, can initiate changes. We can describe this situation by saying that only certain positions in social organization give a person the power of initiative

This has led to reevaluation of counting as a method of getting from one to ten. Students are taught advanced concepts of Boolean algebra, and formerly unsolvable equations are dealt with by threats of reprisals.

96. Read This: Mathematics Unbound
    Another topic that I found very thoughtprovoking is that of the position of Germanmathematicians in European mathematics during the twentieth century.  
    http://www.maa.org/reviews/mathunbound.html
    
    Extractions: edited by Karen Hunger Parshall and Adrian C. Rice Mathematicians today form an international community. Mathematical papers often have co-authors who live in different countries. Mathematical ideas and discoveries are exchanged quickly over the Internet and World-Wide Web. Internet discussion groups on particular mathematical topics draw members from many countries. And, every four years, the International Congress of Mathematicians gathers attenders from all over the world. Few of us, perhaps, stop to wonder, "How did it get this way?" The volume under review, , explores this question. Jointly published by the American Mathematical Society and the London Mathematical Society in a series devoted to the History of Mathematics, it contains the proceedings of a symposium held at the University of Virginia in May 1999. There are 18 chapters, each by a different author or pair of authors. What will readers of MAA Online find of interest in this volume? Well, there is very little mathematics. On the other hand, I suspect that most mathematicians have a desire to know about the community they are a part of; and the question of how this community acquired the international nature it has today seems to me to be an inherently interesting one. An interesting topic does not, alas, guarantee an interesting presentation.

He is recognized by mathematicians for having extended set theory to the concept of transfinite numbers, including the cardinal and ordinal number classes. He was born in Saint Petersburg Russia, the son of a Danish merchant, George Waldemar Cantor, and a Russian musician, Maria Anna Böhm. In 1856 the family moved to Germany and he continued his education in German schools, earning his doctorate from the University of Berlin in 1867.
