Location awarenessLocation awareness refers to devices that can passively or actively determine their location. Navigational instruments provide location coordinates for vessels and vehicles. Surveying equipment identifies location with respect to a well-known location wireless communications device. The term applies to navigating, real-time locating and positioning support with global, regional or local scope. The term has been applied to traffic, logistics, business administration and leisure applications.
Organisme unicellulairevignette|Quatre espèces de volvocales, des algues unicellulaires. Les organismes unicellulaires sont des organismes composés d'une seule cellule dont les diverses fonctions vitales sont assurées par des organites hautement spécialisés, à la différence des organismes multicellulaires. Cette appellation regroupe deux catégories : les organismes procaryotes (sans noyau) et eucaryotes (avec noyau). Parmi les procaryotes, tous sont unicellulaires et on retrouve les bactéries et les archées.
Self (langage)Self is an object-oriented programming language based on the concept of prototypes. Self began as a dialect of Smalltalk, being dynamically typed and using just-in-time compilation (JIT) as well as the prototype-based approach to objects: it was first used as an experimental test system for language design in the 1980s and 1990s. In 2006, Self was still being developed as part of the Klein project, which was a Self virtual machine written fully in Self. The latest version is 2017.1 released in May 2017.
Corpuscule de Meissnerthumb|right|Corpuscule de Meissner Les corpuscules de Meissner, découverts par l'anatomiste Georg Meissner (1829 - 1905), sont des récepteurs sensoriels formés de terminaisons encapsulées, situés dans le derme papillaire (partie supérieure du derme), particulièrement sensibles au toucher léger. Localisés dans les régions à haute sensibilité comme les doigts, la plante des pieds, les lèvres, la langue, etc. Ils se présentent sous la forme de lamelles conjonctives de cellules disposées en piles d'assiettes au milieu d'une papille dermique.
Django (framework)Django est un framework web open source en Python. Il a pour but de rendre le développement d'applications web simple et basé sur la réutilisation de code. Développé en 2003 pour le journal local de Lawrence (État du Kansas, aux États-Unis), Django a été publié sous licence BSD à partir de . Depuis , la Django Software Foundation s'occupe du développement et de la promotion du framework. En plus de cette promotion régulière, des conférences entre développeurs et utilisateurs de Django sont organisées deux fois par an depuis 2008.
Mobile development frameworkA mobile development framework is a software framework that is designed to support mobile app development. It is a software library that provides a fundamental structure to support the development of applications for a specific environment. Frameworks can be in three categories: native frameworks for platform-specific development, mobile web app frameworks, and hybrid apps, which combine the features of both native and mobile web app frameworks.
Level of analysisLevel of analysis is used in the social sciences to point to the location, size, or scale of a research target. It is distinct from unit of observation in that the former refers to a more or less integrated set of relationships while the latter refers to the distinct unit from which data have been or will be gathered. Together, the unit of observation and the level of analysis help define the population of a research enterprise.
Proofs and RefutationsProofs and Refutations: The Logic of Mathematical Discovery is a 1976 book by philosopher Imre Lakatos expounding his view of the progress of mathematics. The book is written as a series of Socratic dialogues involving a group of students who debate the proof of the Euler characteristic defined for the polyhedron. A central theme is that definitions are not carved in stone, but often have to be patched up in the light of later insights, in particular failed proofs. This gives mathematics a somewhat experimental flavour.
