  Algorithm   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The concept of an algorithm is illustrated by the example of a recipe although many algorithms are much more algorithms often have steps that repeat (iterate) or require decisions (such as logic or comparison) until the task is completed.
Algorithms are essential to the way computers process information because a computer program is essentially an algorithm that tells computer what specific steps to perform (in specific order) in order to carry out specified task such as calculating employees’ paychecks printing students’ report cards.
Algorithms are sometimes implemented as computer programs but are more often implemented by means such as in a biological neural (for example the human brain implementing arithmetic or an insect relocating food) or electric circuits or in a mechanical device.

Algorithms are sometimes implemented as computer programs but are more often implemented by other means, such as in a biological neural network (for example, the human brain implementing arithmetic or an insect relocating food), or in electric circuits or in a mechanical device.
The first case of an algorithm written for a computer was Ada Byron's notes on the analytical engine written in 1842, for which she is considered by many to be the world's first programmer.
A divide-and-conquer algorithm reduces an instance of a problem to one or more smaller instances of the same problem (usually recursively), until the instances are small enough to be directly expressible in the programming language employed (what is 'direct' is often discretionary).

Algorithms can be implemented by computer programs, although often in restricted forms; mistakes in implementation and limitations of the computer can prevent a computer program from correctly executing its intended algorithm.
The concept of an algorithm is often illustrated by the example of a recipe, although many algorithms are much more complex; algorithms often have steps that repeat (iterate) or require decisions (such as logic or comparison).
Algorithms are not only implemented as computer programs, but often also by other means, such as in a biological neural network (for example, the human brain implementing arithmetic or an insect relocating food), in electric circuits, or in a mechanical device.

 Algorithm - definition of Algorithm - Labor Law Talk Dictionary (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.netlab.uky.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Algorithms can be implemented by computer programs, although often in restricted forms; an error in the design of an algorithm for solving a problem can lead to failures in the implementing program.
The concept of an algorithm is often illustrated by the example of a recipe, although many algorithms are much more complex; algorithms often have steps that repeat (iterate) or require decisions (such as logic or comparison) until the task is completed.
A greedy algorithm is similar to a dynamic programming algorithm, but the difference is that at each stage you don't have to have the solutions to the subproblems, you can make a "greedy" choice of what looks best for the moment.

 Genetic Algorithms
Although, design of the fitness algorithm may be as much or more computationally expensive than just solving the problem in a traditional way, there are some problems for which a traditional solution would take thousands if not millions of years of computer time if they could be solved at all.
Genetic Algorithms excel at these problems because their parallel nature combined with the properties of the evolutionary model defined within the GA rapidly converges to the optimum solution.
This algorithms is based on the phenomena of crystal growth in slowly cooled metals, the analogy here is that the optimum crystal is one that has the structure with the least fractures.

 Graphics Timeline Editing
Timeline events are moved to the clipboard, edited and committed back to the timeline.
Activities can be added to the clipboard by moving them from the current timeline to the clipboard, copying from the current timeline, importing from an external timeline, including a template of a model, using the automatic scheduler, and keying in data.
Moving from the timeline to the clipboard is done by selecting the activity in the inspector and the choosing "move" from one of GTE toolboxes.

Algorithms to prevent lost packets from permanently disabling communications and enabling them to be successfully retransmitted from the source.
Originally, there was a single distributed algorithm for routing that was implemented uniformly by all the routers in the Internet.
In 1987 it became clear that a protocol was needed that would permit the elements of the network, such as the routers, to be remotely managed in a uniform way.

I'm trying a new way in computing algorithms, & am going to university soon to be able to use their systems.
the real trick is to intervene at crucial stages of developments of evolution...eg parting the red sea so that your chosen algorithms are assured a afe passage to develop superintelligence, and knock out the algorithms wearing swastika, perhaps by introducing americans, so you can be sure to produce a healthy and resilliant straign.
when you try to design an algorithm to evolve it can reach a sort of smal peak and from that summit all directions are down so the evolution stops.
