I will present the results of a collaborative and interdisciplinary project between the National Centre for Text Mining (NaCTeM) and the Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine (CHSTM) at the University of Manchester, demonstrating the capabilities of innovative text mining tools to allow the automatic extraction of information from two historical archives: the British Medical Journal (BMJ) (1840 – present) and the London-area Medical Officer of Health (MOH) reports (1848-1972). NaCTeM’s text mining tools have enriched these historical archives with semantic metadata automatically by extracting terms, named entities and events. The development of a semantic search system focused on the understanding of historical changes in lung diseases since 1840.

Valedictory Lecture
Making Thinking Visible in Complex Times
Prof Simon Buckingham Shum
This event took place on 15th July 2014 at 4:00pm (15:00 GMT)
Berrill Lecture Theatre, The Open University, Walton Hall Campus, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom
In 1968 Doug Engelbart gave “The Mother of All Demos”: a disruptive technology lab had quietly invented the mouse, collaborative on-screen editing, hyperlinks, video conferencing, and much more. This was the start of the paradigm shift, still unfolding: computers were no longer to be low level number crunchers, but might mediate and mould the highest forms of human thinking, both individual and collective. In this talk I review nearly 19 years in KMi chasing this vision with many colleagues, inventing tools for making dialogue, argument and learning processes visible in different ways. How do we harness such tools to tackle, not aggravate, the fundamental challenge facing the educational system, and its graduates: to think broadly and deeply, and to thrive amidst profound uncertainty and complexity? These are the hallmarks of the OU — and indeed, all true education from primary school onwards.

Global Playing Field: More Level, but It Still Has Bumps
By JOSEPH E. STIGLITZ
A BOOK REVIEW OF:
THE WORLD IS FLAT: A Brief History of the 21st Century
By Thomas L. Friedman.
The world is flat, or at least becoming flatter very quickly, Thomas L. Friedman says in his exciting and very
readable account of globalization. In this flat new world, there is a level (or at least more level) playing field
in which countries like India and China, long marginalized in the global economy, are able to compete. And
while Mr. Friedman, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for The New York Times, celebrates the new vistas
opening up for these countries, he describes forcefully the challenges globalization presents for the older
industrialized nations - especially the United States.
America is still the global leader in science and technology, but its dominance is eroding. As Mr. Friedman
points out in "The World Is Flat," Asian countries now produce eight times as many bachelor's degrees in
engineering as the United States; the proportion of foreign-born Ph.D.'s in the American science and
engineering labor force has risen to 38 percent; and federal financing for research in physical and
mathematical sciences and engineering as a share of gross domestic product declined by 37 percent from
1970 to 2004.
About a third of "The World Is Flat" is devoted to describing the forces of leveling - from the fall of the
Berlin Wall, which eliminated the ideological divide separating much of the world, to the rise of the Internet
and technological changes that have led to new models of production and collaboration, including
outsourcing and offshore manufacturing.
The rest of the book is devoted to exploring the implications of this flattening, both for the advanced
industrial countries and the developing world. In truth, Mr. Friedman's major points would come across more
strongly if his 488 pages were edited more tightly. But he provides a compelling case that something big is
going on. I was in Bangalore, India, in January 2004 - just a month before Mr. Friedman - visiting Infosys,
one of India's new leading high-technology companies. I, too, was bowled over by what I saw: "campuses"
more modern than anything I had seen on the West Coast, and business leaders as dynamic and thoughtful as
anywhere in the world.
It may be true that fears of outsourcing have been exaggerated: there are only a limited number of
radiologists, software programmers and back-office people whose jobs can be performed at a distance. But I
side with Mr. Friedman: the integration of some three billion people into the global economy is a big deal.
Even if only a limited number of American jobs are lost, the new competition will have striking effects,
particularly on the wages of unskilled workers. While free trade may ultimately make every country better
off, not every individual will be better off. There are winners and there are losers; and while, in princip.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

pursuing a single enterprise,
in which history and social
science were part of an
undifferentiated cloth of
social analysis.”

lucky”
R. W. (Bob) Fogel
