2.5 Review The title of this unit could have been Juggling with complexity: searching for system. This title seemed to capture something essential about the unit. Juggling is a rich metaphor and will be used explicitly in Part 3. But it also carries the idea of a skill that needs to be practised and that might seem incredibly awkward to begin with. You may find this idea helpful as you review your work in Part 1. Juggling is also a skill that, once practised, becomes second nature. This too may b
Digital Construction: Automated Design and Construction Experiments Using Customised On-Site Digital
This paper presents a currently on-going research trajectory, investigating integrated design and build work-fl ows using generative design strategies and custom built fabrication devices. The aim of the research, which is being developed through a series of experiments and workshops, is to explore scenarios in which these work-flows can produce emergent architectural structures which are highly adapted towards the intended performance within their specifi c context and site. The research has pr

1.2 Defining the scene Let us first consider what kind of ‘scene’ the home help was proposing that she and Reg should play out together. BT 52/3130, 'Britain's aircraft duel in the air' The National Archives UK posted a photo: BT 52/3130, 'Britain's aircraft duel in the air', a handkerchief produced during the First The banking crisis: cause and effect 7.4 Using flowcharts to describe a task (contd) Now consider what happens when you are weighing, for example, flour on a set of scales. You slowly add more flour to the scalepan until you reach the desired weight. As you do this the display constantly changes, showing the weight increasing as you add more flour. To do this, the scales’ computer must repeatedly examine the input and update the display each time it does so. The flowcharts in figures Author(s): Keep on learning There are more than 800 courses on OpenLearn for you to choose from on Learning outcomes After studying this course, you should be able to: select appropriate techniques to tackle and solve problems in the discipline of information security management understand why security and its management are important for any modern organisation understand how an information security management system should be planned, documented, implemented and improved, according to the BSi standard on information security management. 6.034 Artificial Intelligence (MIT) Three Generations of Distance Education Pedagogy: Challenges and Opportunities SBS318 Session 5 Spring 2012 Conclusion This free course provided an introduction to studying Mathematics. It took you through a series of exercises designed to develop your approach to study and learning at a distance and helped to improve your confidence as an independent learner. 1.6.6 Professional bodies and societies Consider joining a learned society or professional organisation. They can be very useful for conference bulletins as well as in-house publications, often included in the subscription. Don't forget to ask about student rates. Try looking for the websites of learned societies associated with your subject area (e.g. The Royal Society, the Author(s): Speak Italian with Your Mouth Full - Lesson 6, part 3 (closing lecture) ESG seminar on Italian language, culture, and food: ES.S41, lesson 6, part 3 (3 of 3) Creacion/Creatividad: Evaluando Dise?os Arquitect?nicos con Realidad Virtual (Creation/Creativity: E Introduction Even the simplest organisms can detect and respond to events in their ever-changing environment. Similarly, within a multicellular organism, cells are surrounded by an extracellular environment from which signals are received and responded to. Extracellular events are decoded and transmitted to relevant parts of individual cells by way of a series of activation/deactivation steps involving many intracellular molecules. This relay of information along molecular pathways is called signal tra 21G.711 Advanced Spanish Conversation and Composition (MIT) Three Top Essay Writing Tips 5.3 Wace Burgess: the importance of managing relationships The case study below illustrates the importance of managing relationships.

Activity 1: Defining the scene
Autumn 2008 witnessed a global financial crisis with governments worldwide taking emergency action to prevent a collapse of the banking system. The aftermath of the worst financial crisis since the 1930s saw economic activity slump. In the UK, higher unemployment, falling house prices and a sharp increase in government debt proved to be the alarming legacy of the near implosion of the banking system. This fascinating insight into the downfall of the global financial markets gives us a clear unde

This course introduces representations, techniques, and architectures used to build applied systems and to account for intelligence from a computational point of view. This course also explores applications of rule chaining, heuristic search, logic, constraint propagation, constrained search, and other problem-solving paradigms. In addition, it covers applications of decision trees, neural nets, SVMs and other learning paradigms.
Professor Terry Anderson, Canada Research Chair in Distance Education, Athabasca University, Canada, has an incredible knowledge of online learning, and his work on the uses of technology in support of open and distance education is at the forefront of research in this area. He will address the challenges of expanding access to high quality distance learning and the growing opportunities to create and sustain learning connections using both old and new approaches to distance education.

A good video that goes over the main starting points to review before writing an essay. It goes slowly, but a handout to refer to would be good for most students to refer as they start to write.
