Learning From Mah Jong - Towards a Multi-Agent System that can Recognize Graphic Units
Sketching is a major means of exploiting the first conceptual developments in architectural design. If we want to support the architect in the ideas-developing phase of design, then we need to understand the conventions of depiction and encoding in drawings. The theory of graphic units provides an extended list of such conventions that are widely used. We propose that a multi-agent system for recognition of graphic units in drawings is fruitful: agents can specialize in graphic units, a multi-ag
7.4 Conclusion Despite their very considerable differences, and the very different kinds of evidence they draw upon, it is clear from these brief exchanges between theoretical frameworks that ‘the personal’ and social policies meet and remake one another in multiple and complex ways. Making welfare directly conditional upon work represents an unusually focused response to particular perceptions of personal lives, and the material circumstances and social conducts associated with them. And as policies be

DONGHIA MASTER CLASS
Joep van Lieshout, 2014 Donghia Designer-in-Residence, led a master class project for a self-sustaining live/work community in Amsterdam. In collaboration with Caroline Prisse, thirteen Architecture/Landscape/Interiors students participate in this one-week studio to reconfigure the Tetterode Glass Studio, Amsterdam, into a communitiy of the future with its own resources for food, water, etc.
Funding for this master class is provided by the Angelo Donghia Foundation.

Money talks: Waging bull As the debate about raising the minimum wage in America intensifies, it seems that wages for the lowest-paid Americans are already on the increase. Also, why is wage growth in the UK picking up at last? Finally, the most expensiv
1.2.7 Margaret Margaret was in her thirties when she learnt she had breast cancer. Some three years later, after the removal of the affected breast, she was leading a very busy life working full-time at the Open University, studying part-time for an OU degree and running a family. Fitness activities such as jogging and various sports had become very important in her life. She was also very involved in cancer research fundraising activities. She described the impact of her brush with death in this way:

Ask yourself questions such as: am I on track to achieve my outcomes? what difficulties in using numerical or mathematical techniques have I experienced and what have I done about them? how have the choices and decisions I made impacted on the quality of my work? do I need to make Introduction Care is needed at all stages of life. This unit makes care in the family its focus because the overwhelming majority of care, including health care, is supplied in families, much of it in private, much of it unnoticed and unremarked upon. The meaning of the term (informal carer) and the word (care) itself are explored. This material is from our archive and is an adapted extract from Understanding Health and Social Care (K100) which is no longer taught by The Open University. If y Fur Fur is important in thermoregulation, but a conspicuous coat may proclaim sexual dominance or warn off competitors. It's similarly important for predators to remain unseen for as long as possible. The most familiar type of camouflage is the colour of the hunter merging into the background environment colour - think about stoat in winter (ermine), polar bears against the ice of the Arctic and lions against the baked soil and dried grass of Africa. But equally important is the patterned fur of 2.2.2 ‘Visual deficit’ hypotheses Samuel Orton was one of the earliest and most influential researchers into dyslexia, although he used the term strephosymbolia – literally meaning ‘twisted symbols’. He noticed that children with specific reading difficulties often wrote letters back to front, confused letters such as ‘b’ and ‘d’, and would swap the position of letters within a word during spelling (e.g. ‘was’ might be written ‘saw’). From these and other observations, he suggested that their read The darwinian structure of the design process RVC 25 - The Role of Mitochondria in Health and Disease RVC 22 - Deer Antlers and Tissue Regeneration How to Decorate Lamp Shades and Make Rosettes with Ribbon 3.1 Patches and antivirus software In this section we will look at two of the ways in which you can protect yourself from malware: Ensure that your computer has the latest patch from Microsoft or your operating system vendor. Install antivirus software that will protect you from these problems, and ensure that you keep it up to date. (Later in this course we will discuss firewalls, which you can also use to protect your computer.)
This text is meant only to be a stimulus for the discussion to be held, in a specific panel, at Generative Art 2001. In the text, ?provocative enough? to spur animated discussion, some very basics of darwinism and genetics are given with the only purpose of declaring a common ?stage for the play? where everybody feels at ease. Common stage and common vocabulary ifnot even common language. The main thesis is very strong, therefore comments and critics are warmly encouraged. They are the selective
Mitochondria are cell organelles which play a critical role in energy supply in most higher organisms. But how did that role develop and how do they achieve this function? In the latest episode of the RVC Podcast Dr Michelangelo Campanella discusses these questions and relates his research findings on how poor mitochondrial function can contribute greatly to disease processes.
I'm sure everyone has stopped to admire the impressive sight of a stag during the rut. But what is the biology underlying the phenomenon of annual antler growth and shedding? Professor Jo Price explains and describes her research into the mechanisms of this unusual example of mammalian tissue regeneration.
Lengths of colorful ribbon dress up a blah white lampshade. Try your hand at making easy rosettes for embellishments. Only ribbons and a glue gun are needed. This is a great craft for home or for school. This would be a fun activity for a home economics class. (2:09)
