CCRMA & CHM Present: A Celebration of Max Mathews and 50 Years of Computer Music, April 29

by "Computer History Museum" <event@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 18, 2007 at 01:46 PM

CCRMA and CHM Present

ìA Celebration of Max Mathews and 50 Years of Computer Musicî

Fifty years ago, in 1957, at Bell Telephone 
Laboratories, Max Mathews demonstrated that the 
digital computer can be used as a fantastic new 
musical instrument. He created a revolutionary 
software platform destined to form the basis of 
all contem****ary digital musical systems.

His audacious ideas were driven by the belief 
that any sound that the human ear can hear can 
be produced by a computer. Mathews' mastery of 
this new instrument revealed new musical 
horizons and sparked a burgeoning curiosity into 
the very nature of sound. His comprehension and 
elaboration made five decades of art and 
research possible, laying the groundwork for 
generations of electronic musicians to 
synthesize, record, and play music. Today at 
Stanford's Center for Computer Research in Music 
and Acoustics (CCRMA) as a Professor Emeritus he 
continues not only to educate students and 
colleagues, but also to guide and inspire with 
his constant inventiveness and pure musical pleasure.

Join us in honoring Max for an afternoon of 
sound, celebration and discovery of his ideas, 
works, music, and writings.

Dear Members,
I am a student of computer science, having interest in Grid computing.
I am trying to predict the execution time of the whole workflow
executed on Grid. Can anybody throw some light on any possible working
approach to do this? Any idea, refrence, tool, paper is welcome.

Thanking you in anticipation.
Best wishes,
Farrukh

CHM Presents

An Evening with Legendary Venture Capitalist 
Arthur Rock in Conversation with John Markoff

A 1951 graduate of Harvard Business School, Arthur Rock began his career
as a security analyst in New York City before joining the cor****ate
finance
department of Hayden, Stone & Co. In 1957 he worked with Alfred ìBudî
Coyle
to raise financing from Sherman Fairchild to found Fairchild
Semiconductor,
the company that established Silicon Valley as a world center of
innovation
in integrated circuit technology.

Mr. Rock moved to California in 1961 and formed 
a partner****p with Tommy Davis.
Together they invested $3 million and returned 
$100 million to their investors.
After establi****ng his own firm, Arthur Rock & 
Co in 1968, he worked with Fairchild
co-founders Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce to 
launch Intel Cor****ation, the largest,
and by many measures, the most successful 
semiconductor company in the world today.
He notes that ìIt was one of the few times that 
I helped start a company that I
absolutely knew in my own mind was going to be a 
big success. I raised the money
just on the telephone in something like two days.î

Arthur Rock served as Intelís first Chairman of the Board and Chairman of
the
Executive Committee. Based on this experience he has proclaimed Rockís
Law, a
corollary to Mooreís Law, which says that ìthe cost of capital equipment
to
build semiconductors will double every four years.î

Mr. Rock also invested in and held early stage board positions at
pioneering
scientific computing company, Scientific Data Systems; at Teledyne, which
grew
into one of the most successful technology conglomerates in the history of
American business, and at Apple Computer.  He has contributed to the local
community by sup****ting the San Francisco Museum 
of Modern Art, the San Francisco
Opera, and the California Institute of 
Technology. In 2003 he donated $25 Million
to establish the Arthur Rock Center for 
Entrepreneur****p at Harvard Business School.
Professor of Business Administration Howard H. 
Stevenson says ì"Arthur Rock is part
of the history of American business and entrepreneur****p."
