متن کاملThe yield stress—a review or ‘panta roi’—everything flows?
An account is given of the development of the idea of a yield stress for solids, soft solids and structured liquids from the beginning of this century to the present time. Originally, it was accepted that the yield stress of a solid was essentially the point at which, when the applied stress was increased, the deforming solid first began to show liquid-like behaviour, i.e. continual deformation...

Collective behaviours going under names such as evolution, swarming, embryogenesis, thought, and emergence produce results that seem counterintuitive (or downright impossible) when the individual elements in the collective are examined.

Not uncommonly apparent improvements in our knowledge are eventually shown to be incorrect or misguided in the light of subsequent knowledge. This might arise because a different perspective was taken on a problem so that a new understanding wa...
متن کاملThe Age of Pervasive Computing? Everything Smart, Everything Connected?
Given the continuing technical progress in computing and communication, it seems that we are heading towards an all-encompassing use of networks and computing power, a new era commonly termed “Pervasive Computing”. Its vision is grounded in the firm belief amongst the scientific community that Moore’s Law (i.e. the observation that the computer power available on a chip approximately doubles ev...
