61. Livingstone
    Why the name? Livingstone, the program, is named after David Livingstone(18131873), the 19th century medical missionary and explorer.

    Extractions: The centerpiece of our work on Model-based Autonomous Systems is a system called Livingstone. Livingstone is the software kernel for model-based reactive self-configuring autonomous systems. Livingstone accepts a model of the components of a complex system such as a spacecraft or chemical plant and infers from them the overall behavior of the system. Livingstone also notes which commands are being given to the system and what observations are available. From this, Livingstone is able to monitor the operation of the system, diagnose its current state, determine if sensors are giving impossible readings, recommend actions to put the system into a desired state even in the face of failures and so on. Because Livingstone reasons about explicit models of the system it is interacting with, rather than following a program or rules, a Livingstone-based controller is highly capable, flexible and easy to maintain. Livingstone also takes into account all available information and observations, drawing conclusions which reach across a complex system in a way which would be difficult for a traditional software system or time consuming for a human operator. Livingstone is able to perform significant deduction in the sense/response loop by drawing on our past experience at building fast propositional conflict-based algorithms for model-based diagnosis, and by framing a model-based configuration manager as a propositional feedback controller that generates focused, optimal responses. Livingstone's representation formalism achieves broad coverage of hybrid hardware/software systems by coupling the transition system models underlying concurrent reactive languages with the qualitative representations developed in model-based reasoning. Livingstone automates a wide variety of tasks using a single model and a single core algorithm, thus making significant progress towards achieving a central goal of model-based reasoning.

    Extractions: Imperialismilla tarkoitetaan siirtomaapolitiikkaa, josta käytetään myös kolonialismi-nimitystä, ja sillä tarkoitetaan siirtomaiden hankkimista ja niiden taloudellista hyväksikäyttöä. Perinteisiä imperialismi maita olivat portugali, Espanja, Hollanti, Englanti ja Ranska. Myöhemmin 1800-luvun loppupuolella mukaan tulivat Italia, Saksa, Belgia, Yhdysvallat ja Venäjä. Varsinaiseksi imperialismin ajaksi kutsutaan 1870-luvun ja ensimmäisen maailmansodan välistä aikaa. Sisältö: SYNTYTAUSTA: -Tutkimusmatkat ja sitä kautta saatu tieto afrikasta. -Eurooppalaisten siirtomaapoliitikkojen oli vallattava mahdollisimman paljon uusia maita sijoittaakseen liikaväestön ja hankkiakseen uusia myynti- ja markkinointialueita. -Haluttiin hyödyntää mahdollisimman paljon luonnonvaroja, kuten erilaisia jalometalleja, puuvillaa, norsunluuta ja orjia, joita ei kuitenkaan hankittu juuri lainkaan 1860-luvun jälkeen. -Siirtomaiden hankkimiseen vaikutti myös kansalliskiihko, jota lehdistö levitti kansan keskuuteen. Poliittisten johtajien oli hankittaja kannatusta kansanjoukoilta, jotenka he joutuivat ruokkimaan kansalliskiihkoilua ja täten siirtomaiden hankkiminen valjastettiin palvelemaan poliitikkojen etua.

    Extractions: DAVID LIVINGSTONE FROM Cambridge Speech of 1857 David Livingstone (1813-1873), the Scottish missionary and explorer of Africa, personified for Britain the higher cause of imperialism. Between 1840 and 1873, Livingstone traversed nearly a third of Africa, missionizing Christianity, opposing the persistent slave trade, and recording the geography and ethnographic customs of its peoples. His achievement and his self-effacing devotion to opening up Africa to commerce and Christianity provided inspiration to a nineteenth-century British public in search of a moral center to its imperialist policies in Africa. My object in going into the country south of the desert was to instruct the natives in a knowledge of Christianity, but many circumstances prevented my living amongst them more than seven years, amongst which were considerations arising out of the slave system carried on by the Dutch Boers. I resolved to go into the country beyond, and soon found that, for the purposes of commerce, it was necessary to have a path to the sea. I might have gone on instructing the natives in religion, but as civilization and Christianity must go on together, I was obliged to find a path to the sea, in order that I should not sink to the level of the natives. The chief was overjoyed at the suggestion, and furnished me with twenty-seven men, and canoes, and provisions, and presents for the tribes through whose country we had to pass. In a commercial point of view communication with this country is desirable. Angola is wonderfully fertile, producing every kind of tropical plant in rank luxuriance. Passing on to the valley of Quango, the stalk of the grass was as thick as a quill, and towered above my head, although I was mounted on my ox; cotton is produced in great abundance, though merely woven into common cloth; bananas and pine-apples grow in great luxuriance; but the people having no maritime communication, these advantages are almost lost. The country on the other side is not quite so fertile, but in addition to indigo, cotton, and sugarcane, produces a fibrous substance, which I am assured is stronger than flax.

    Extractions: Missionary Spotlight Zambia Livingstone planted the seed Clearly, Livingstone endeared himself to the people of this part of Africa. In May 1973, on the 100th anniversary of his death, Christians gathered in stadiums across Zambia for church services, to thank God for his life. He did much to stop the cursed slave trade. But he also brought the light of the glorious gospel to the interior of this vast continent. Today, at least 80% of Zambians consider themselves to be Christians (although the genuine number is much less than that). David Livingstone was born in Blantyre, Scotland, on 19 March 1813. When he first came to central Africa, it was just a blank space on the map of the world, and the name of Christ was totally unknown by the local people. As a result of his sacrificial pioneering work, the vast interior of Africa was charted, and roads and railway lines were built into the hinterland. There was a subsequent development in trade and commerce, although the slave trade was halted. Mission stations were established. We prepare the way Livingstone was not destined to see the glorious state of the Christian faith that now exists where he laboured. He died on his knees on 4 May 1873 in a little hut in northern Zambia.

    One of seven children, Livingstone was raised in poverty which he escaped to become an explorer. His obsession with finding the source of the Nile led eventually to his death.

    Extractions: Send it to a friend! One of seven children, Livingstone was raised in poverty. At the age of ten he began work in the local cotton mill, studying the classics in his spare time. He decided he wanted to become a missionary and, in 1840, was ordained. He arrived in South Africa the following year. He immediately began travelling inland, looking for converts and seeking to end the slave trade, his life's missions. By 1842, he had already gone further north into Kalahari country than any other white man and, in 1853, set out to find a route to the Atlantic coast. After reaching Luanda on the coast in May 1854 and returning to Linyanti, he explored the Zambezi region, arriving to the waterfalls that he renamed Victoria Falls. Back in England and a national hero, he recounted his travels in his best-selling Missionary Travels and Researches in South Africa (1857). From 1858 to 1864 he was in Africa on a second expedition, this time to explore eastern and central Africa. However, disillusionment with Livingstone's leadership set in, navigating the Zambezi proved impossible and, to cap it all, his wife died in April 1862.

    Extractions: David Livingstone was born the son of deeply religious but humble parents, who lived near Glasgow, Scotland. He studied medicine and theology at the University of Glasgow. Livingstone tried to go to China as a missionary in 1838, but when the Opium War in China closed the doors, he went to South Africa. He had been challenged by Robert Moffat, a missionary to that country, who said, "On a clear morning the smoke of a thousand villages could be seen where the name of Christ had never been heard." He joined Moffat and married his daughter. Livingstone pushed two hundred miles north of Moffat's assigned station and founded another mission station, Mabosta. Livingstone continued on the mission field and advanced fourteen hundred miles into the interior in spite of the hardships. His purpose was to open the door of Africa to the Gospel. He was attacked and maimed by a lion, his home was destroyed during the Boer War, his body was often racked by fever and dysentery, and his wife died on the field. One morning in May, 1873, a faithful native found Livingstone by his bed, kneeling and dead. The natives buried his heart in Africa as he had requested, but his body was returned to England and buried in Westminster Abbey. Many felt no single African explorer had done so much for African geography as Livingstone during his thirty years' work. His travels covered one-third of the continent, from the Cape to near the Equator, and from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean. Livingstone was no hurried traveler; he did his journeying leisurely, carefully observing and recording with the eye of a trained scientific observer. His example and his death acted like an inspiration, filling Africa with an army of explorers and missionaries, and raising in Europe so powerful a feeling against the slave trade that through him slavery may be considered as having received its death blow.

    Extractions: Livingstone, David (1813- 1873), was the greatest explorer-missionary in Africa of the 19th century. He was responsible not only for opening up the southern half of that continent but also for disclosing to the civilized world what he called "the running sore of Africa," the slave trade, as practised in the interior. Born at Blantyre in Lanarkshire, Scot., on March 19, 1813, the second son of humble parents, Neil and Agnes Livingstone, he went to work in a cotton mill at the age of ten. Even at that early age his energy and powers of concentration showed themselves so that, largely self-taught, he was able, by the time he was 22, to study Greek, theology and medicine at college courses in Glasgow. As a result he took a medical degree in 1840, having been accepted earlier by the London Missionary society as a candidate for the mission field. Posted by the society to their mission at Kuruman in southern Africa, he landed in 1841 at Algoa bay. he at once showed the two qualities which made him the great traveler-missionary he soon became, the ability to cope with all the practical difficulties of journey by ox-wagon, horse or on foot, and a quick understanding of and sympathy with the native African. He was in fact so competent in these things after his ten weeks´ journey to his base that after a few weeks there he pushed on with his wagon for another 200 mi., farther than any missionaries had yet penetrated, to seek a place for a mission where none had been before. His next step was to go alone to establish it, so as to learn the native language and explore the possibility of training native teachers.

    Extractions: Home David Livingstone was born on March 19, 1813 in Blantyre, Scotland to devout Christian parents. Listening to a celebrated missionary preach David began to wonder what am I going to do with my life? He had finished 2 years of medical school and was ready to answer the high calling of the LORD. Through Robert Moffatt These words burned in David’s heart “I have sometimes seen, in the morning sun, the smoke of a thousand villages where no missionary has ever been.” These words captured him forever he was going to Africa. Shortly after his decision e received appointment from the London Missionary Society. He made a quick one day trip home to see his parents and just a few short days later was standing on the deck of a steamer bound for Africa. After arriving they traveled 700 miles by ox cart to the Moffatts homestead. After a few days rest he continued on his journey to Lepelole. He built a house and began to study the language. After six months of work he was able to preach and speak with the people in their own tongue. After a preaching trip he returned home to find the village destroyed and his people gone, or killed.
