Gates and Microsoft officials who came on stage touted the feature-rich software to come from the company, but that aspect of the applications could prove troublesome for some users, suggested one member of the audience, which numbered more than 12,000 at the MGM Grand hotel. The new interface also will be different "because there's no doubt that this year you could really say that the browser model. Their needs also mean that the emerging industry model "can't just be pure client-to-client" because servers are necessary to provide "huge repositories" of data and for other functions that client machines can't handle. Users want to access data from different sites that they can reach from one point, Gates said, but they don't necessarily want to stay at just one site. "But you can't do speech, you can't do video" using that model, which further limits users to seeing one thing at a time, akin to the single portal approach in which all of the data wanted at a particular time is shown on the computer screen, Gates said. He did take one small swipe at rival Sun Microsystems Inc., which Gates said promotes the idea of "get rid of the PCs - if you lose your privacy, get over it," with servers playing the dominant hardware role. Microsoft competitors are certain to quibble with Gates' future view, which is a "software-to-software" approach in which the applications enable the machines to work more effectively together in whatever model the user needs - server-to-server, server-to-client, client-to-client.

Smart Tags can be used to create vertical industry versions of Office applications, according to a Microsoft official who demonstrated Office 10 during the keynote. One example is a new feature in Office 10, now in beta test, called Smart Tags, which can automatically link certain words to local or Internet-based information. The XML features can be used to tie words or data in Office applications to information on the Internet. Office 10 will feature native support for XML in the Excel spreadsheet and the Access database. "Microsoft and the industry should really build their future around XML," said Gates, who traditionally gives the opening Comdex speech, offering his view of the state of the industry and its future. The machines runs on a 500-MHz or 600-MHz processor, has 128 megabytes of RAM, a 10 gigabyte hard drive and operates on the next version of Windows 2000, code-named "Whistler."

(ĭ) A modern view considers greater complexity due to interplay between predator and prey functional (physiological, morphological, and behavioral) traits. ![]() (Ī) In the classic, generic view, predators have a negative consumptive effect on prey, and prey provide a positive nutritional benefit to predators. Here, I offer a sketch of recent advances in applying a functional trait approach to better understand and predict the context-dependent nature of predator–prey interactions.ĭepiction of classic and modern views of a predator–prey interaction.Ī predator–prey interaction is represented as a module where consumptive effects are depicted by solid arrows and non-consumptive effects by dashed arrows. A functional trait is any morphological, behavioral, or physiological trait of an organism that is associated with a biotic interaction or ecological function of interestġ4. Instead, it requires considering predators and prey in terms of their functional traits (įigure 1). In particular, explaining context dependency in the interaction between any given species means that it is insufficient to examine predator–prey relationships solely on the basis of taxonomic identity (for example, wolves and pike are predators elk and stickleback are prey)ġ5. Hence, recent analyses focus on explaining the mechanisms determining the nature of predator and prey interactions in different environmental contextsġ2. But these assumptions are inconsistent with growing evidence that much variety underlies many predator–prey relationshipsĩ. This further assumes that the nature and strength of interaction between a predator and prey species do not vary among environmental contexts. This often assumes that all predators are functionally equivalent-merely capturing and consuming prey-and that all prey are passive victims. Predator–prey relationships are classically viewed as consumptive acts between two speciesĦ. Thus, characterizing these relationships functionally offers a way to understand the complexity that is inherent in predator–prey communities Predator–prey relationships are therefore a mainstay of community ecology. Most animal species are engaged in a predator–prey relationship by consuming prey or falling victim to predators or both. Research shows that examining predator–prey interactions through the lens of an adaptive evolutionary-ecological game offers a foundation to explain variety in the nature and strength of predator–prey interactions observed in different ecological contexts. These interactions in turn can have dynamic feedbacks that can change the context of the predator–prey interaction, causing predator and prey to adapt their traits-through phenotypically plastic or rapid evolutionary responses-and the nature of their interaction. Moreover, trait responses can be triggered by non-consumptive predator–prey interactions elicited by responses of prey to risk of predation. Evidence shows that the nature and strength of many interactions are dependent upon the relative magnitude of predator and prey functional traits. Here, I discuss recent advances in this functional trait approach. Such traits include predator and prey body size, predator and prey personality, predator hunting mode, prey mobility, prey anti-predator behavior, and prey physiological stress. Functional traits are defined as any morphological, behavioral, or physiological trait of an organism associated with a biotic interaction. Recent approaches have begun to explore predator–prey relationships in terms of an evolutionary-ecological game in which predator and prey adapt to each other through reciprocal interactions involving context-dependent expression of functional traits that influence their biomechanics. Classic approaches have tried to understand and predict these relationships in terms of consumptive interactions between predator and prey species, but characterizing the interaction this way is insufficient to predict the complexity and context dependency inherent in predator–prey relationships. Predator–prey relationships are a central component of community dynamics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 'Gen V' Episode 4 Recap: "The Whole Truth" What Happened To Marina On 'The Golden Bachelor'?

![]() Nupedia and Wikipedia coexisted until the former's servers were taken down permanently in 2003, and its text was incorporated into Wikipedia. Language editions were created beginning in March 2001, with a total of 161 in use by the end of 2004. Wikipedia gained early contributors from Nupedia, Slashdot postings, and web search engine indexing. Bomis originally intended it as a business for profit. Otherwise, there were initially relatively few rules, and it operated independently of Nupedia. Its integral policy of "neutral point-of-view" was codified in its first few months. The name originated from a blend of the words wiki and encyclopedia. Wikipedia was launched on Janu as a single English-language edition at and announced by Sanger on the Nupedia mailing list. The domains (later redirecting to ) and were registered on January 12, 2001, and January 13, 2001, respectively. On January 10, 2001, Sanger proposed on the Nupedia mailing list to create a wiki as a "feeder" project for Nupedia. ![]() Wales is credited with defining the goal of making a publicly editable encyclopedia, while Sanger is credited with the strategy of using a wiki to reach that goal. Nupedia was initially licensed under its own Nupedia Open Content License, but before Wikipedia was founded, Nupedia switched to the GNU Free Documentation License at the urging of Richard Stallman. Its main figures were Bomis CEO Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger, editor-in-chief for Nupedia and later Wikipedia. It was founded on March 9, 2000, under the ownership of Bomis, a web portal company. Wikipedia began as a complementary project for Nupedia, a free online English-language encyclopedia project whose articles were written by experts and reviewed under a formal process. Various collaborative online encyclopedias were attempted before the start of Wikipedia, but with limited success. Wikipedia founders Jimmy Wales (left) and Larry Sanger (right) Articles on breaking news are often accessed as sources of frequently updated information about those events. It has been censored by some national governments, ranging from specific pages to the entire site. While the reliability of Wikipedia was frequently criticized in the 2000s, it has improved over time, receiving greater praise in the late 2010s and early 2020s, having become an important fact-checking site. ![]() ![]() It has been criticized for exhibiting systemic bias, particularly gender bias against women and geographical bias against the Global South. Wikipedia has been praised for its enablement of the democratization of knowledge, extent of coverage, unique structure, and culture. Wikipedia's editions when combined comprise more than 61 million articles, attracting around 2 billion unique device visits per month and more than 15 million edits per month (about 5.8 edits per second on average) as of July 2023. Initially only available in English, editions in other languages were quickly developed. Founded by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger on January 15, 2001, it is hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation, an American nonprofit organization. Wikipedia is the largest and most-read reference work in history, and has consistently been one of the 10 most popular websites.
