AFS Server Logging

The AFS servers at the Center for Information Technology Integration have been modified to trace and log file server activity. This report discusses the AFS modifications and the structure of the trace files and data. We also describe three large datasets collected from the logging servers, available to other researchers.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/107953/1/citi-tr-93-10.pd

Pictures have propositional content

Although philosophers of art and aesthetics regularly appeal to a notion of ‘pictorial content’, there is little agreement over its nature. The present paper argues that pictures have propositional contents. This conclusion is reached by considering a style of argument having to do with the phenomenon of negation intended to show that pictures must have some kind of non-propositional content. I first offer reasons for thinking that arguments of that type fail. Second, I show that when properly understood, such arguments can in fact be turned on their heads and shown to support the propositionalist position
