Understanding how complex, highly variable sedimentary systems interact in time and space to release, transport and concentrate diamonds is the basis for successful exploration strategies for placer diamond deposits.
An external coupling software, based on the GC method, is used to carry out multi=time step explicit/implicit co-computations, making interact in time an explicit FE code (Europlexus) for the domain of interest, with an implicit FE code (Cast3m) handling the absorbing boundary layers.
That view, in turn, has its roots in a confused understanding of how the concepts of legitimacy and the use of force interact in times of war and how the recent history of conflict can create the permissive climate for further violence.
Not content to stop as a simple notifier, 911ICE.org also integrates what they are calling a Virtual Waiting Room, where family and friends can interact in times of need.
Yet they are speaking and moving and interacting in real time, in the virtual world of Second Life (SL).
They can help select -- interacting in real time -- what music videos will be featured on the show.
When you bring together smart and talented people and have them interacting in real time, the data collected along the way could make an actual impact in the world.
I was unable to really test online play but it is ostensibly similar to the Wii's Miiverse gameplay involving exciting troops of little Mii characters ostensibly interacting in real time.
The coupled dynamics is based on equations of motion that have successfully described coordinated behaviors within and between individuals, now extrapolated to hybrid settings (i.e., co-existence of human and computational agents interacting in real time).
Wright thinks this global neighborhood of characters interacting in real-time could become a philosophical artifact.
