Trademarks, acronyms, and Orwell
05/11/2004 12:09 PM
The other day I
wondered
why some well-known technology acronyms -- notably UPnP -- aren't
expanded on the home pages of the organizations promoting those
technologies. In the case of UPnP, at least, the reason is that it
isn't (any longer) an acronym:
The UPnP mark is not an acronym and should not be represented as such.
The mark is a single entity that happens to consist of four symbols
(i.e., letters), which individually do not have any particular
meaning.
[Ti
ps for using the UPnP Certification Mark]
Why the switch? Apparently it's because you can't trademark an
acronym. So, for example, JDBC, like UPnP, has been uprooted and now
exists as a free-floating string of "symbols (i.e., letters)". JDBC is
a registered trademark, and although Sun was not able to expunge all
references to
Java Database
Connectivity from its website, the
JDBC home page
nowhere mentions the term.

Impressions of Costa Rica after a
month's visit: Biodiversity
Impressions of Costa Rica after a
month's visit: Biodiversity
10/29/2003 01:16 AM In Costa Rica biodiversity isn't a just a slogan or a buzzword, it is
an observable fact. The country is teeming with life. We saw amazing
numbers of birds, reptiles, insects and plants. Even when we weren't
looking for them, the number and kinds of birds and insects that we
saw just walking around rural towns was astonishing, and the variety
we saw when we were hiking in the national parks was awe-inspiring.
For example, on one short afternoon hike on Rincón de la Vieja I saw 2
species of toucans, 2 species of parrots, a laughing falcon, a cuckoo,
a woodpecker, several kinds of finches, flycatchers, magpies and jays.
That was just some of the birds. I also saw 2 bats, an agouti, a
snake, several kinds of frogs and toads, several kinds of lizards,
several kinds of ants including leaf cutter ants and army ants, and
thousands of butterflies. I'm not much on plants, so I can't name many
of the different trees I saw, but in the course of one afternoon I
passed through at least 5 kinds of habitat: cloud forest, tropical
rainforest, dry tropical forest, open savannah and what looked like
California live oak highlands. I have done a lot of hiking in the
United States, and I have never seen anything like it. As the
guidebooks point out, there are more species of birds in Costa Rica
(650) than in all of the United States and Canada combined. All of
this in a country the size of West Virginia. If you like hiking and
wildlife viewing, especially bird-watching, it is hard to imagine a
better place. And if you are a fan of the writings of Charles Darwin,
David Quammen and Edwin O. Wilson, as I am, it is a great place to
see, in the flesh as it were, exactly what they were writing about....

07/07/2004 07:46 PMCogprints just announced
the addition of a 1994 research
paper (PDF format) by Christian
Balkenius on the implications of biological learning mechanisms to
artificial intelligence. The paper is ten years old but still relevant
today. It ties in nicely with Rodeny Brooks'
subsumption approach to behavioural robotics and suggests that prior
AI
research efforts to find a generalized set of learning algorithms were
fundamentally wrong.

development of well-specified, standard, and interchangable biological
parts is a critical step towards the design and construction of
integrated biological systems. The MIT Registry of Standard Biological
Parts supports this goal by recording and indexing biological parts
that are currently being built and offering synthesis and assembly
services to construct new parts, devices, and systems. In the future,
they hope to expand this support in the areas of standards for
biological part families, parameter measurement and quality control,
and development of an open community of biological engineers and

/04-winter/internet.htmlHealthcare providers need
up-to-date, reliable information on the types of agents and diseases
they could be faced with during any type of chemical or biological
event. This webliography provides links to information on biological
and chemical agents as well as current news of importance to the
medical community. Included are resources for treatment of diseases
caused by these weapons and links to information on the make-up of
these agents. While bioterrorism has been the topic of recent
webliographies (
Perkins 2002,
and
Hinegardner and
May 2003), those articles have concentrated on general resources.
This webliography provides access to information about specific
biological and chemical agents, and a more comprehensive list of
general resources than the other publications." This has been added to
