| ARTICLES RELATED TO Purpose | |  |  |  | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Rulemaking - PurposesAt first blush, executive agency rulemaking appears to be an oxymoron. Executive agencies are usually charged with executing, not making, the rules. Given the scope of modern regulation, however, legislatures frequently find areas where it is impractical for lawmakers to apply the level of detail or expertise required to establish complete standards.

Common purposes of rulemaking include:
Adding scientific expertise. For example, in the U.S., the Federal Food ...

Examples include collecting, making, tinkering, sports and adult education. Engaging in a hobby can lead to acquiring substantial skill, knowledge, and experience. However, personal fulfillment is the aim.
What are hobbies for some people are professions for others: a game tester may enjoy cooking as a hobby, while a professional chef might enjoy playing (and helping to debug) computer games.

|  |  |  | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Supercomputer - Special-purpose supercomputersSpecial-purpose supercomputers are high-performance computing devices with a hardware architecture dedicated to a single problem.

They are used for applications such as astrophysics computation and brute-force codebreaking.
Examples of special-purpose supercomputers:
Deep Blue, for playing chess
Reconfigurable computing machines or parts of machines
GRAPE, for astr ...

|  |  |  | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Castle - Purpose of CastlesCastles were built not only as a defensive measure, and offensive weapon, but also as a home. Castles were made by their owners for specific purposes, or evolved into new purposes over time:

Secondly castles were offensive weapons, built in otherwise hostile territories from which to control surrounding land ...

|  |  |  | Purpose: Encyclopedia II - Leaning Tower of Nevyansk - The purpose of the towerDuring the Soviet times, Nevyansk was a closed city, which prevented archaeologists from properly studying the tower. They have lifted the veil of secrecy only in the early 2000s.
Historians are still debating about the exact purpose of the Nevyansk Tower. Some say that Demidov used it as a "bank safe", others believe it was either a watchtower, or a belltower, or a prison, or even a laboratory for conducting chemical experiments and producing counterfeit money. Some historians think that the tower was supposed to embody the might of the Demidov fami ...
