The sociable gene
808 Genes are no longer what they used to be. Once the powerful determinants of our biological and evolutionary fate, their central importance is now gradually being chipped away. At first glance, this may just sound like an interesting puzzle for scientists: How can the gene be placed correctly in the larger context of biology? But it also creates an important challenge when it comes to commun...
متن کاملSociable Interfaces
Interface formalisms are able to model both the input requirements and the output behavior of system components; they support both bottom-up component-based design, and top-down design refinement. In this paper, we propose “sociable” interface formalisms, endowed with a rich compositional semantics that facilitates their use in design and modeling. Specifically, we introduce interface models th...
متن کاملSociable Information Spaces
Information providing – the high-bandwidth, highly produced world of news and entertainment publication – is segregated from information exchange – the free-flowing verbal world of MUDs, chatrooms, newsgroups and email. Existing technologies enforce this segregation: the newspaper is inert; the TV set only receives. Yet these technological constraints are dissolving. The computers that today ho...
متن کاملProgramming with Sociable Resources
We present a model for shared-memory parallel programming that makes shared objects (“resources”) the drivers of heap-manipulating parallel computations. The model aims to syntactically capture patterns of spatial locality in heap updates and to express the maximum amount of logical parallelism in computations. To achieve this, we take a “resources’-eye” view of parallel operations on the heap....
متن کاملDo more sociable dogs gaze longer to the human face than less sociable ones?
Domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) are especially skillful in communicating with humans, and they rely on special abilities to do that. One of these skills involves gazing at human faces in cases of uncertainty or when seeking for something out of reach. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between dogs' sociability level and the ability to learn to gaze in a situation with food in sight ...
