Historical Considerations in Biodiversity Informatics

Historical collections of biological specimens are potentially rich sources of data for contemporary researchers. However, many technical issues have to be addressed in order to make these collections widely available. This paper reports on a qualitative study of historical and current data practices at the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia, which is seeking wider understanding of the h...

Quantum Informatics: A Survey

We survey the emerging field of quantum computing by showing its motivations and founding principles, and by presenting the most significant results in some selected areas. In particular, we outline the topics of quantum information, quantum algorithms, quantum cryptography, quantum finite automata, quantum error correction, and the physical realizations of quantum computing systems.
