Abstract

Sydney University Press was restarted in 2003 to provide print-on-demand books from the University Library’s digital collections. Since 2005, it has also been publishing new research titles. Through its co-location with the University’s repository, it has begun to explore Open Access in conjunction with commercial publication. A number of SUP titles are freely available chapter-by-chapter in the University repository, with a link to purchase the printed volume. This paper explores some of the issues around scholarly publishing in the digital age: exposure, expertise and reputation vs commercial imperatives; digital production and flexible uses, and the role of the scholarly publisher.
'PWSLineage', by Alex Dragulescu, This is one of a series of digitalised visualizations of worms, viruses, trojans and spyware code (http://www.sq.ro/malwarez.php). Disassembled code, API calls, memory addresses and subroutines were tracked and analyzed, and their frequency, density and groupings mapped onto an algorithm that grew a virtual 3D entity. The patterns and rhythms found in the data drive create the configuration of the artificial organism.
