Taking Google's GFS and Map-Reduce papers as rough technical specifications, open-source equivalents were developed, and the Apache Hadoop Map-Reduce platform, and its underlying file system HDFS emerged.18 Microsoft's technologies include a parallel runtime system called Dryad [69], and two higher-level programming models, DryadLINQ [110] and the SQL-like SCOPE language [27].
Unlike nonverbal messages, which are limited in number and scope, language comprises a set of arbitrary symbols whose combination allows for an infinite number of potentially complex and abstract messages.
Already in the mid-1760s — for example, in On Diligence in Several Learned Languages (1764) and the Fragments (1767-8) — Herder began advancing three fundamental theses in this area: (1) Thought is essentially dependent on, and bounded in scope by, language — i.e. one can only think if one has a language, and one can only think what one can express linguistically.

Admittedly, these modules are limited in scope and language, although they are currently available in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Serbian, Russian, Dutch and Mandarin.
SLI has received robust scientific attention, in part because of its recent linkage to a specific gene and loci on chromosomes and in part because of the prevailing question regarding the scope of its language impairment: Does the disorder impact the general ability to segment and process language or a specific ability to compute grammar?
He believed there was scope to reform language teaching, but warned against reducing the pool of linguists so far that there were even fewer language teachers in future.
