Barnes & Thornburg's Labor Relations Legal Blog. 9 Tips on How to Plot the Mandelbrot Set By Hand. Edit Article Edited by John Comeau, Flickety, John Cross, Krystle and 19 others The Mandelbrot set is made up of points plotted on a complex plane to form a fractal: a striking shape or form in which each part is actually a miniature copy of the whole. The incredibly dazzling imagery hidden in the Mandelbrot Set was possible to view in the 1500s thanks to Rafael Bombelli's understanding of imaginary numbers -- but it wasn't until Benoit Mandelbrot and others started exploring fractals with the aid of computers that the secret universe was revealed. Now that we know it exists, we can approach it in a more primitive manner: by hand. Ad Steps 1Understand the basic formula, often expressed as z = z2 + c. 8Continue calculating each cell until it has escaped, or you have reached the maximum number of iterations (the number of colors you're using: 3 in this example), at which point you color it.
Tips Why does z2 = (x2-y2, 2xy)? Warnings Sources and Citations. Challenge Overview. Users interact with online content in a variety of ways depending on their goal. In the scientific and scholarly research community, it’s no different. New tools and technologies allow researchers to search scholarly content from their phones, laptops and tablets in any way they like. And more so than ever APIs (application programming interfaces) and simple online development tools allow users to take data and information and serve it up in exactly the way that works for them.
The dynamics of search and discovery are changing, and there is little evidence of it slowing down in the near future.

For detailed steps and processes used in progressive business, academic and creative groups see collaborative method. General theory of collaboration[edit] Currently there exists no consolidated, general theory of collaboration (GTC). Such a theory could provide a common language and framework for those seeking to better understand and expand the collaborative aspects of any given field of human endeavour. Additionally, a GTC would provide a body of knowledge on which those developing collaborative software and other design-based enterprises might draw.
Collaboration is fostered when there is an expected beneficial outcome by the collaborators. The more significant the causal outcome, the higher the participation and commitment level will be amongst collaborators. Successful Collaboration has been described as Synergy, where the sum is greater than all the parts; i.e. 2+2=5.

A report from the Economist Intelligence Unit sponsored by Cisco Systems April, 2007 The future belongs to those who collaborate. In the Economist Intelligence Unit’s March 2006 report for Cisco, entitled “Foresight 2020”, executives predicted that over the next 15 years their markets will become even more global, functions within their organisations will atomise across geographies and partners, and competition will intensify from new corners of the world. To succeed in this environment, organisations will need to collaborate with thousands of specialised players, from customers and partners to competitors, regional distributors and university researchers. Firms have traditionally collaborated vertically—with suppliers and distributors, for instance. But the need for agility in a fast-changing environment will drive companies to increase collaboration of all types in order to move quickly, work efficiently and continue to grow.

Collaboration in War and Memory in East Asia: A Symposium This symposium on collaboration in East Asia during the Asia-Pacific War and its aftermath addresses some of the most fraught issues in historiography, historical remembrance, and contemporary politics. It also reflects on occupation states in Europe and postwar East Asia, while casting important light on contemporary issues of collaboration globally. How are we to assess occupation regimes that emerged in each East and Southeast Asian nation during the Pacific War, as well as in postwar nations including those occuped by the United States or other occupiers.
Issues of collaboration in a post-colonial world may be equally salient in reflecting on the experiences of newly independent nations? 1.

Collaboration in the History of Wartime East Asia Timothy Brook The Language of Collaboration. The Lodestar Foundation: The Collaboration Prize. While Lodestar is mainly a grantmaking foundation, our primary operating program is The Collaboration Prize. During the first several years of our work supporting nonprofit collaborations, we became increasingly aware of the lack of written material providing a diversity of models of successful collaborations from which nonprofits could study, learn and emulate.
Indeed, we found that there were many perceived obstacles to collaboration that discouraged nonprofits from even considering collaboration as an option. We decided that if a wide variety of successful models was available, nonprofits would be encouraged to pursue collaboration with more confidence. We concluded that the most efficient way to collect such models was through The Collaboration Prize, a national contest to financially reward the best nonprofit collaboration. In 2008, we initiated the first Collaboration Prize contest. For more information on The Collaboration Prize, please visit: www.thecollaborationprize.org.

April 2010 It seems that almost everywhere you go these days, nonprofit and foundation leaders alike are talking about ways to foster and increase collaboration. In these difficult times, when resources seem to be vanishing while the demand for services continues to increase, it makes sense that organizations consider working together to make available resources go further and perhaps achieve greater results.
In principle, everyone wants to collaborate, but the reality of making it happen is extremely tough. Collaboration can be a loaded word. Today, when funders talk about “collaborating,” nonprofits sometimes hear the term as code for “merger.” The truth is, the nonprofit sector has been talking about collaboration for a long, long time, and for many, the word has become hollow because so often, the “collaborations” are forced, inefficient, for show only, or fail to result in any meaningful action or results. - Carol Thompson Cole.
Wikinomics Getting past the collaboration buzz word. It seems as though we’re labeling every type of cooperative activity as “collaboration” these days. Every company wants to be seen as collaborative and every enterprise solution wants to sell the benefits of collaboration. It’s gotten to the point where everything from Wikipedia, to polling your customers, to a simple conversation between co-workers is being dubbed as “collaboration.” A recent report from the Economist Intelligence Unit suggests that adopting a broad definition for collaboration can be detrimental and can in fact detract from “true” collaborative efforts. The main focus of the report is the role of trust in enabling collaboration, but the opening section of the paper lays out a valuable framework for understanding the difference between collaboration, cooperation, and coordination.

Collaborative Futures. Whenever a communication medium lowers the costs of solving collective action dilemmas, it becomes possible for more people to pool resources.
And “more people pooling resources in new ways” is the history of civilization in…seven words. —Marc Smith, Research sociologist at Microsoft This book is about the future of collaboration; to get there, it is necessary to understand collaboration’s roots. It is impossible to give a full history in the context of this book; we instead want to highlight a few key events in the development of collaboration that directly inform the examples we will be looking at.
Most of these stories are well known, so we decided to keep them short. They are all very well documented, so these descriptions should be great starting points for further research.
