| ARTICLES RELATED TO Purpose | | | |  Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Toor - PurposeIn Unix, it is traditional to keep the root filesystem as small as reasonably possible, moving larger, fancier programs and rapidly-changing data to other, optional parts of the system. This increases the likelihood that the system can be brought to a semi-useable state in the case of a partial system failure. It also means that the superuser account, necessary for repairing a broken system, should not depend on any programs outside of this small core. So the 'root' account is often configured with a shell which is small, efficient, and depend ...

| | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Trajan's Column - Purpose It was traditionally thought that the Column was a propagandistic monument, glorifying the emperor's military exploits. However, the structure would have been generally invisible and surrounded by other buildings in Trajan's Forum, and because of the difficulty involved in following the frieze from end to end, it is now considered to have had much less propaganda value. Based on the inscription, the column may have been a measuring guide for the construction of the forum.
After Trajan's death in 117, the Roman Senate voted to have Trajan's ashes buried in the Column's base in a gol ...

| | | | | | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Domesday Book - Purpose For the object of the survey we have three sources of information:
The passage in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, which tells us why it was ordered:
"After this had the king a large meeting, and very deep consultation with his council, about this land; how it was occupied, and by what sort of men. Then sent he his men over all England into each shire; commissioning them to find out "How many hundreds of hides were in the shire, what land the king himself had, and what stock upon the land; or, what dues he ought to ...

| | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Screensaver - Purpose Until recently, most computer screens depended on cathode ray tubes (CRTs). CRT images are generated using electron beams which are "launched" from the back of the monitor and "draw" images continuously on the screen. Most computer programs paint images in the screen. Some of these images (letters, pictures, animations, menus) are usually moving or changing, and never stay in the same place for long. But some portions of the screen (like the Start bar in Microsoft Windows, or the typical upper "score" bar of some video games) are always in t ...

| | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Synod of Dort - Purpose The purpose of the Synod held in Dordrecht was to settle a controversy that had arisen in the Dutch churches following the spread of Arminianism. After the death of Jacob Arminius his followers presented objections to the Belgic Confession and the teaching of John Calvin, Theodore Beza, and their followers. These objections were published in a document called The Remonstrance of 1610, and his proponents were therefore also known as Remonstrants. The opposing Calvinists, led by professor Franciscus Gomarus of the University of Leiden, became ...

In particular, the growth of extensive commercial websites built on database-backed content management systems necessitated deliberate policies with rega ...

| | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Benchmark computing - Purpose As computer architecture advanced, it became more and more difficult to compare the performance of various computer systems simply by looking at their specifications. Therefore, tests were developed that could be performed on different systems, allowing the results from these tests to be compared across different architectures. For example, Intel Pentium 4 processors have a higher hertz rating than AMD Athlon XP processors for the same computational speed, in other words a 'slower' AMD processors could be as fast on benchmark ...

| | | | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Hurricane Hunters - Purpose Although satellite data has revolutionized weather forecasters' ability to spot tropical cyclones before they form, there are still many important tasks for which it is not suited. Satellite imagery cannot determine the interior barometric pressure of a hurricane, nor can it provide accurate information about wind speeds. These data are needed by forecasters to accurately predict a hurricane's development and movement.
Because satellites cannot collect the data and ships are both too slow and too vulnerable to large storm-generated waves, the on ...

| | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Bankruptcy - Purpose The primary purpose of the laws of bankruptcy are: (1) to give an honest debtor a "fresh start" in life by relieving the debtor of most debts, and (2) to repay creditors in an orderly manner to the extent that the debtor has property available for payment.
Bankruptcy allows debtors to resolve debts through the division of non-exempt assets among creditors. Additionally the declaration of bankruptcy allows debtors to be discharged of most of the financial obligations, after their non-exempt assets are distributed, even if their debts h ...

| | | | | | | | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Face transplant - Purpose People with faces disfigured by burns, trauma, disease or birth defects might benefit from the procedure.
The alternative to a face transplant is to move the patient's own skin from their back, buttocks or thighs to their face in a series of as many as 50 operations to regain even limited function and a face that is often likened to a mask or a living quilt.
Dr. L. Scott Levin, chief of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Duke University Medical Center, has described the procedure as "the single most ...
