82. Agent Or Program Is it an Agent, or just a Program? A taxonomy for Autonomous Agents. Which one, or ones, shall we choose? A Natural Kinds taxonomy of Agents. http://www.msci.memphis.edu/~franklin/AgentProg.html

Is it an Agent, or just a Program?: A Taxonomy for Autonomous Agents Stan Franklin and Art Graesser Institute for Intelligent Systems University of Memphis Proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Agent Theories, Architectures, and Languages , Springer-Verlag, 1996. Abstract The advent of software agents gave rise to much discussion of just what such an agent is, and of how they differ from programs in general. Here we propose a formal definition of an autonomous agent which clearly distinguishes a software agent from just any program. We also offer the beginnings of a natural kinds taxonomy of autonomous agents, and discuss possibilities for further classification . Finally, we discuss subagents and multiagent systems Introduction On meeting a friend or colleague that we haven't seen for a while, or a new acquaintance, some version of the following conversation often ensues: What are you working on these days? Control structures for autonomous agents. Autonomous agents? What do you mean by that? A brief explanation is then followed by: But agents sound just like computer programs. How are they different?

83. Canadian Soil Classification A taxonomy of soils. http://interactive.usask.ca/ski/agriculture/soils/soilclass/soilclass_can.html

Soil Classification Canadian Classification The Canadian Classification (Taxonomy) organizes soils first into Orders, then Great Groups, then Sub-Groups, then Families and finally Series or Associations. Soil Order The highest or broadest level of classification is the Order reflecting which of the soil forming factors had the most influence of soil formation. Nine orders are recognized with specific horizon characteristics. Within Saskatchewan most of the soil orders are represented, although the main agricultural area is dominated by soils of the Chernozemic Order. The northern agricultural/forest transition areas are mainly Luvisolic soils and boreal forest soils are dominated by Brunisolic soils. To the far north, the subsoil rarely thaws so that we have permafrost giving rise to Crysolic soils. Wherever there is standing water and restricted drainage, Organic soils form, usually in the wetter forested regions. Gleysolic soils develop in areas that are subjected to periodic waterlogging. Parent material that contains a high proportion of soluble salts give rise to Solonetzic soils.

84. Taxonomy Of Educational Objectives THE taxonomy OF EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES. This is a Affective Domain of the taxonomy of Educational Objectives. The Affective Domain http://www.humboldt.edu/~tha1/bloomtax.html

THE TAXONOMY OF EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES This is a revised version of Benjamin Bloom's work with the addition of the Psychomotor Domain as developed by Anita Harrow [1972]. Dr. Bloom's intent was to develop a classification framework for writing educational objectives. The questions and examples were added by Tom Allen to make the Taxonomy more useful for beginning teachers as a tool to facilitate appropriate questioning. COGNITIVE DOMAIN: Knowledge: recognize or recall information. Q: What is the capital of Maine? Who wrote "Hamlet?" Words typically used: define, recall, recognize, remember, who, what, where, when. Comprehension: demonstrate that the student has sufficient understanding to organize and arrange material mentally. Q: What do you think Hamlet meant when he said, "to be or not to be, that is the question?" (Rosenshine, among others, would argue that one of the best ways to teach is to teach pupils how to ask their own questions about the topic under consideration.) Words typically used: describe, compare, contrast, rephrase, put in your own words, explain the main idea.

Index to this page Anatomical homology: an example Embryonic Development Recapitulation Protein Sequences ... Convergent evolution. Taxonomy: Classifying Life At least 1.7 million species of living organisms have been discovered, and the list grows longer every year (especially of insects in the tropical rain forest). How are they to be classified? Ideally, classification should be based on homology ; that is, shared characteristics that have been inherited from a common ancestor . The more recently two species have shared a common ancestor, the more homologies they share, and the more similar these homologies are. Until recent decades, the study of homologies was limited to anatomical structures and pattern of embryonic development. However, since the birth of molecular biology, homologies can now also be studied at the level of proteins and DNA DNA-DNA Hybridization Chromosome Painting Comparing DNA Sequences Anatomical homology: an example The figure shows the bones in the forelimbs of three mammals: human, whale, and bat (obviously not drawn to the same scale!). Although used for such different functions as throwing, swimming, and flying, the same basic structural plan is evident in them all. In each case, the bone shown in color is the radius Body parts are considered homologous if they have the same basic structure the same relationship to other body parts, and, as it turns out

Printer-Friendly Home Programmes Cross-Cutting Issues Global Taxonomy Initiative Background Governments, through the Convention on Biological Diversity, have acknowledged the existence of a "taxonomic impediment" to the sound management of biodiversity. The purpose of the Global Taxonomic Initiative (GTI) is to remove or reduce this taxonomic impediment - in other words, the knowledge gaps in our taxonomic system (including those associated with genetic systems), the shortage of trained taxonomists and curators, and the impact these deficiencies have on our ability to conserve, use and share the benefits of our biological diversity. The GTI has been established by the Conference of the Parties to address the lack of taxonomic information and expertise available in many parts of the world, and thereby to improve decision-making in conservation, sustainable use and equitable sharing of the benefits derived from genetic resources. The GTI is specifically intended to support implementation of the work programmes of the Convention on thematic and cross cutting issues. Given the many competing demands for capacity building in taxonomy, activities under the GTI must be clearly linked to the implementation of Convention.

Argues that women deserve the same privileges, protections, pay, and opportunities that men do. Even when reformed, existing political structures may not be adequate to address women's needs. How to achieve equality with men without erasing women's difference, making them in effect, "honorary men." Cultural Feminism A great variety of female artists, musicians, teachers, activists, etc. A very big tent. Attempts to recover lost or marginalized women's works and traditions and create a culture that nurtures and supports women's experiences and values. Music, literature and other arts form a large part of this endeavor. Argues that existing institutions and the values they represent are male-dominated. How to create a "gynocentric" culture without drawing on a notion of "universal" sisterhood that may exclude some women. How to avoid "policing identity" and setting up some women and their values as more "women-centered' than others.

96. Scheel Letters - Table Of Contents Scans of Jorgen Scheel's letters on killifish taxonomy and husbandry, which were very influential, and widely circulated in the hobby during its organizing period in the 1960s. http://ark.killi.net/Contents.htm

Courtesy of ARK - Arizona Rivulin Keepers The Scheel Letters edited by Allan Semeit These letters were sent out by Joergen Scheel, from Denmark, in the early 1960's. Copies were circulated among hobbyists around the world. This period of time was when killifish keepers began organizing and corresponding with one another. These communications led to the discovery of basic techniques to maintain killifish and helped resolve some of the confusion regarding species identification that existed at that time. Many popular species had been misidentified and were circulating under names belonging to other species. Bear this in mind as you read through these. The "Letters" are being posted in the sequence we received them. We believe this is in chronological order. The "Letters" were not clearly divided, so we have numbered and divided the information into separate sections as the topic changes. These numbers do not reflect any numbers attached to the original Letters. We have also taken the liberty to correct minor grammatical errors, possibly created when the text changed from one format to another. The intent, however, was to leave as much possible as it was received. We hope that you enjoy these Letters and find them to be educational and helpful. The "Letters" are in Adobe PDF format. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to read or print them. If you do not have Acrobat Reader, you can download it for free.
