We find that all 13 real networks examined, including two linguistic, three technological, four social, and four biological networks, have diameters greater than their random expectations (Table 1).
For legal as well as technological and linguistic reasons, "the best thing is to keep it standard," said Paul Kronenberger, president of Spunky Productions, which maintains Claus.com (www.claus.com).
One of the problems with this theory is that no clear link between technological and linguistic behaviour has been established even the more-sophisticated tools could have been made by nonspeaking hominins.
Consequently, passive testing still does not belong to the repository of conceptual, technological, and linguistic devices of computer science and telecommunications research communities.
Contrary to this expectation, we here report that the observed diameter is greater than the random expectation in every real network examined, including biological, social, technological, and linguistic networks.
Reframing technological skill as linguistic ability is a process I often think about because I work in a student lab on my small, residential campus, called the Multimedia Development Lab, where I serve as a consultant for design, print and film projects.
Already, though, you can see that the primary impact of these spectacles won't be technological; they'll be linguistic.
Originating in Persia around the fourth century B.C., it served as the language of choice for travellers and traders along a huge swath of the Silk Road, from the eighth to the fifteenth centuries A.D. Today, it is the language of choice for precisely no one a victim of the shifting military, economic, technological, and cultural tides whose linguistic impact Ostler describes in his book.
On a continent with more than 30 countries, scores of languages and a civilized history spanning thousands of years, development of Internet content and e-commerce was bound to be more complex than it was in the U.S. The problems created by Europe's cultural and linguistic diversity are aggravated by the regulatory, economic and technological barriers that exist between countries.
This linguistic development, comparable to any other lexicon adapted to a new technological development, has been an organic accompaniment to her work.
