wget utility is the best option to download files from internet. wget can pretty much handle all complex download situations including large file downloads, recursive downloads, non-interactive downloads, multiple file downloads etc.,

This is very helpful when you have initiated a very big file download which got interrupted in the middle. Instead of starting the whole download again, you can start the download from where it got interrupted using option -c

Note: If a download is stopped in middle, when you restart the download again without the option -c, wget will append .1 to the filename automatically as a file with the previous name already exist. If a file with .1 already exist, it will download the file with .2 at the end.

Note: This quota will not get effect when you do a download a single URL. That is irrespective of the quota size everything will get downloaded when you specify a single file. This quota is applicable only for recursive downloads.

If you have a download link (e.g.download_script.phpsrc_id=7701) but do know the extension of the file being provided (it could be zip, rar, dmg, gz, etc..), how do you know what to call the file in your -O argument

Thanks for the excellent information!Is there a way to pass an argument to the download link I am looking to download build from Jenkins/Hudson server but the build number keeps auto-incrementing to a new number. Hence I have to update the URL with the new build number.I am looking for a way to automate this process and not enter the build number (may be through a script). Any help would be appreciated..

file is 920 Mb approximately, I do not use any download manager it was a direct http download, after having approximately 600 Mb of download some how the download has broken, I have a file now opsi4.0.3-2-servervm.zip which is 600 Mb but this should have been 900 Mb is there any way to resume this one using wget

I am using wget to download a file and checking the maximum network speed I can get!I am getting the network speed as 268 MB/s. Can you please tell me some other method for this Or can you please tell me a file of greater size, so that I can get the total speed available

hello there, thanks for great tips. I just want to ask, if there is any option for downloading for example 100 websites using wget but each website will be downloaded only in 50MB (or any other size). I tried using quota and i have .txt fie with urls of my webpages i want to download, but it only download 50MB of first website and thats all. Thanks for answer.

The main reason for this separation is to secure sensitive information. Your entire client application gets downloaded into the browser, and all of the data can be accessed by anyone accessing your web page.

Save and exit vi by hitting the ESC key and typing :wq.In this next section, we will create a Simics script that will allow us to detect breakpoints inserted within our application in order to stage the workload. A breakpoint (also known as a 'magic breakpoint' in Virtutech parlance) is simply a predefined assembly instruction inlined into your code. This instruction usually has no effect (e.g., a write to register 0) but is recognized by Simics. You can take a look at all the magic breakpoint instructions within the magic-instruction.h file within the microbenchmarks tarball downloaded earlier.

From the workload we just created, you will get to chance to run some sample jobs with Flexus and create a Flexpoint library. By this point you should have a valid initial checkpoint stored as /checkpoints/spinlock.

In order for the run_job script to accept a path as a valid workload, the directory must contain a job-postload.simics file that includes commands that are always run in Simics when the workload is loaded.

We're now starting to edit journalson-line as well. Why For one thing, we save very large amounts of money in composition.For another, we're getting into electronic publishing and we needthe kinds of files we can get this way. How We get authors' disks, translate them to our word processorof choice (currently XyWrite for DOS, Word for Mac; WordPerfectand Word for Windows are on the agenda); strip out all the garbageand translate non-ASCII characters to ASCII codes; and globallyinsert generic coding/keymarking. Freelance copy editors editon-line. We print out (in colors) and send the hard copy to theauthor. (Sending the disk is almost always a BIG BIG mistake. Theauthor will make silent changes that undermine your editing.) The copyeditor inputs the author's changes and gives us a clean set of files,which can be used either by conventional compositors or desktoppublishers. We use redlining with XyWrite, the DocuComp compare function withMac Word. We get low composition costs, cleaner proofs, less work in-house= lower overhead, and archivable/reusable ASCII and PostScriptfiles. Try it; you'll like it.

Ted Jennings, _EJournal_ Have any of you online editing pioneers used any form of multimediae-mail for this function Earlier this year I wrote a paper on Gopherwhich I submitted to a few folks for review. Since one of mycorrespondents also uses a Next workstation, I asked him to commentusing voice. His first message was \"Gee I feel uncomfortable doing this\"but his later remarks were just fine -- they appear right in contextnext to the passage in question, and you get the friendliness ofinflection instead of the coldness of bold red ink. I have heard of other examples of this -- a college that uses Nextmailin its legal office. Lawyers dictate their briefs via Nextmail, andamend drafts with inline voice annotations. And in some placesapparently college professors are using inline annotation to sendcomments with graded term papers, in place of illegible marginalia. Does this sound practical to any editors out there I realize a lot ofediting is technical (and uses its own markup) but this seems veryappealing for the \"negotiating\" model described above.

Rothman\" Sender: \"Publishing E-Journals : Publishing, Archiving, and Access\" From: \"David H. Rothman\" Subject: Of Trolleys and Savage Inequalities (Re: Ken Dowlin Paper)In-Reply-To: My thanks to Katherine Wingerson (katew@info.berkeley.edu) for sharingwith me Ken Dowlin's interesting new paper, \"Global VillageLibrary/Community Electronic Information Infrastructure.\" I agree withmuch of what he says. Even so, he may want to reconsider a few of thestatements he has made, especially his *possible* skepticism toward acentral national library online. As one of the country's toplibrarians--he is city librarian for the city and county of SanFrancisco--he has a wonderful chance to fight for a virtual nationallibrary for rich and poor alike. Do we really want to replicate online the\"savage inequalities\" of America's schools Without a central library ofthe kind that I've described, we indeed will. Just as important,regardless of current fads, some good technical and legal arguments existfor a virtual central approach (combined with, yes, the opportunity forservers to operate independently on a sister network). I hope that KennethDowlin will clarify his thoughts, distinguish between national andinternational central databases and endorse the concept of a *national*library online--full of free or low-cost books and educational software,and perhaps other media as well. >...The local libraries inter-connected with a sophisticated>navigation system will become a Global Village Library. This is in>contrast to the view of some technologists who believe that there is>need for one gigantic electronic library in a central location. Not only is>the one gigantic electronic library impractical, it is undesirable. The>world is not homogeneous and we should not wish it so. I myself favor a mix of Internet-style servers and a powerful, easy-to-use*national* library--a form of electronic federalism. The big library couldpick up the best technology and some content from the servers. We couldreplicate the virtual central library at different locations forsecurity's sake, and also to reduce communications costs. Remember howmany Americans once could go a good distance by following one trolley lineto the next It was a fine system, but no replacement for express trains.We need both trolleys and trains. Alas, much of the time, when I board atrolley on today's Internet, it goes nowhere. I may get a message sayingthat a server is down, or that the material is not available to me(perhaps for copyright-related reasons). I'm also irked by slow-respondingservers. A virtual central database, on the other hand, could maintainstandards better and be more easily upgraded as technology progressed.Response time is important to computer professionals and civilians alike.Please note that I haven't the slightest problem with the central databaseusing distributed technology if that leads to more speed; I'm not asdoctrinaire as some of the more zealous of the boosters of autonomous,servers. Let's pick up the best of both approaches! As for the cultural question, who says that central libraries can be onlyat the international level What if they are national instead Andsuppose that local and university librarians, using federal money, butworking within their own allotments, can help choose books qualifying forroyalties from the national database. If anything, local authors in SanFrancisco and other cities would fare much better than now. They could getpublished more easily than under the present system, in which so manyhouses are fixated on best-seller lists and national and internationalmarkets. Isn't *content* one of the best ways of reflecting localsensibilities And couldn't this system give San Francisco authors abetter shot at a truly national market (and perhaps a global one, too,since interested nations could exchange books and whole libraries) Moreover, with a giant central library for rich and poor alike, we'llstand less chance of replicating online the \"savage inequalities\" of theAmerican school system. Otherwise the middle and upper classes will favortheir own private alternatives and neglect the poor. If nothing else,libraries in Bethesda and Beverly Hills might enjoy better funding foronline acquisitions and services than those in Anacostia and Watts. Those problems are not abstract to me. I see what the world of paper booksis like. I live in Alexandria, Va., where the public libraries have ahorribly limited selection of books, and where many on high-tech topicsare obsolete. I pity the students here without easy transportation tobetter-off suburban libraries. Unless libraries could freely share onlineholdings without copyright worries, Ken Dowlin's approach just would notwork. The Alexandria kids couldn't dial up the same material as those inFairfax County. That leads to the issue of just how authors and publishers be compensatedand protected To Ken Dowlin's credit, he admits that his vision does notinclude \"a system to deal with copyright and dissemination that protectsthe ownership of information and knowledge in an electronic display.\" Holdon a moment. As the author of six books, you can bet I have a slightinterest in the above. Other people do, too--Random House, Time Warner,Knight-Ridder and the rest. Certainly piracy of electronic books will be rampant, especially as netbandwidths increase, unless we reduce the financial incentive forbootlegging. That means a central database funded by general revenue.Encryption alone won't work, since bootleggers can make illegal copies oflegal copies; never underestimate human ingenuity, even with precautions.Just look at the copies spread of a recent novel that was supposed toself-destruct when read off a disk. Technology is too quirky andunpredictable to base intellectual protection on hardware or softwareexclusively. Already some hackers are talking about digital collectives tosystematically break copyright laws; how could this *not* happen I'm alittle baffled: Some \"free market\" zealots build their system around afaith in human greed, but trust booklovers to overcome the naturaltendency to share books with friends. I hope that people influencing theNII won't be so naive when they discuss protection. Meanwhile I notice that an online bookstore wants readers to pay $5 todownload a 25-page short story from Stephen King, and I suspect thatbootlegging could be one reason for this outrageous price. I don't blamethe bookstore; how frustrating it is that honest customers must subsidizebootleggers. We return, too, to those pesky \"savage inequalities.\" Whentrying to get children to enjoy books, do we really want the meter runningat 20 cents a page Stephen King just might be the author whose works mostexcited a young reader, and I know I don't have to tell Ken Dowlin aboutthe relationship between recreational reading and reading skills ingeneral. Without the central database, we'll have more of this. An aside: The existence of a central library wouldn't rule out vendors'publishing paper books or setting up their own databases. I suspect,however, that in most cases, companies would make more money by focusingon the big national library. If censorship problems arose, some LyleStuart-style publishers could do very well with their own networks. Imyself, however, suspect that with a system of many librarians involvedwith the central library, there would be more diversity and freedom ofexpression than today. Presently the marketers reign supreme, and manypublishers won't publish an idea-focused book unless the author is apolitician or talk-show host. Rush Limbaugh is the publishing world's giftto itself. >He directs twenty-seven facilities with a $21 million operating budget.>Projects currently in progress include the supervision of the building of>a $140 milllion New Main Library and $20 million in capital improvement>in the branch libraries. The New Main Library will be a 370,000 square>foot building, doubling the size of the current Main... While the $140-million building may be necessary today (given the*current* state of technology), it should not be a source of pride butrather a source of frustration. The $140 million could have bought morethan 140,000 portable computers even at today's prices. It could have paidthe advances on at least 20,000 first novels or have purchased tens ofthousands of new paper books, magazines and professional journals.Attention, NPR folks and local equivalents: Are you tuned in I can see the need for $140-million libraries now; I don't know about thefuture. Much of the money might better go toward small neighborhood branchlibraries--offering in-person advice and encouragement to children andother people who want to dial up books from home. Talk about the need fordecentralization! **************************************************************************** Anyone interested in my own views on electronic books and the rest maye-mail me for a copy of teleread.txt (150K); I can send it in a flash.Expanded from articles in the Washington Post and elsewhere, TeleReadreflects my perspective as both a former poverty beat reporter and theauthor of a book on portable computer technology. Although written forAmerican readers, TeleRead should also be of interest outside the U.S.,especially in this era of international copyright law. TeleRead addresses not only copyright issues, but also some nasty fiscalones. I tell how to work toward universal availability of powerful,sharp-screened computers fit for reading, writing and other serious work.Among other things, I note that the widespread use of intelligent electronicforms could reduce the hundreds of billions of dollars in time and moneythat Americans spend on paperwork for local, state and federal governments.We could thereby cost-justify the database. I suggest that we all rememberan old principle of information management: multiple apps often make moresense than individual ones considered alone. E-books could help justifye-forms and vice versa.

Thanks. Natalie nk28@umail.umd.edu I'm responding to the list as a whole, because some of these issues areof general interest. There have been different approaches toimplementing electronic journals. OCLC/AAAS consciously took one pathwith OJCCT, and this was the path of making the journal emulate as manyof the features of paper journals as possible with current technology.This they did admirably, but at a price (which is why it costs $100+),and with only as much success as current technology allows. PSYCOLOQUY, has taken the other path, not making any special effort toemulate the features of paper (though psychology has the admittedadvantage of subject matter that is mainly textual). As a consequence,the costs (generously subsidized for the first three years by theAmerican Psychological Association) are low enough so subscription isfree. Access (using the remarkable new search/retrieval tools that arebeing perfected daily, such as gopher, archie, wais, veronica) is sosimple and convenient that more and more libraries (e.g., University ofMichigan, CICnet, WWW) are developing platforms for making PSYCOLOQUYand the other free electronic scientific and scholarly journalsavailable to their readers for free. It is too early to say yet which model -- paid/paper-like vs.free/non-paper-like -- will prevail. The libraries' reaction to OJCCT,if it is indeed as described here (I have not yet heard anything likethis elsewhere), may be a temporary one, part of the uncertainty andindirection with which many are first reacting to this new medium.Hybrid models are also on the way: MIT Press is beginning to publish anelectronic journal of computation whose papyrosimilitude is intermediatebetween PSYCOLOQUY's and OJCCT's and its intermediate cost is beingborne by a consortium of libraries, while individual subscribers canaccess it for free. Meanwhile, more free journals, such as the newdifferential equations journal from University of North Texas, are beingborn every few weeks. The advantage of free journals, of course, is that they are much lessof a gamble for a library to keep subscribing to, and hence to carry theexperiment through long enough for it to catch on (this may requireseveral years). But there is also something to be said for emulatingpaper as a means of attracting a readership and authorship, at least inthe initial transitional period, when the scholarly community has notyet been weened from paper. My advice: Don't draw any premature conclusions. It's too early to saywhich way things are going and where they will end up.

A caution, from someone involved in putting togethersubmitter/editor/reviewer and reader packages for a yet-to-bepublished journal: The biggest problem with doing it with WordPerfect or any othercommercial package, is that unless you have the ability to *buy* acopy of that for all your editors, reviewers and authors, you have aproblem.

The only majordrawback seems to be the fact that the special user interface(Guidon) is needed on the PC where you want to read the journal.This software must be installed, and once it is on a PCthe journal must be read at that particular PC, and the softwarecan only be used for that journal.

Why the Medium Blunts the Message Why should one feel disappointment about an electronic journalPerhaps for the same reason that one would feel disappointment athearing a symphony concert over a telephone. In either case, awondrous experience is blunted by an inferior medium. Very few PCs will support anything as easy to read as a piece ofpaper. As an example, I have a Sun workstation with 900 x 1100 pixel(I think) color monitor. I can put up multiple X windows with 60 ormore lines of legible text (up to 120 marginably legible), but myenjoyment of subject matter is tempered by eyestrain. So I settle fora screen of 42 x 80, in a fairly large size. When I was first assigned this Sun, I was fascinated by its graphicalfeatures, and by how much text it could display, compared to the oldpersistent VT100 standard (24 x 80). Nowadays I'm rather annoyed atthe continual eyestrain, and often print out mail and news files ratherthan try to read them on the screen. And on screen, there's no placeto scribble! Every morning, I spend a half hour with the daily newspaper. I cantouch perhaps 5-10% of its news content, and cheerfully discard therest. The price is right, and it's the easiest medium for readingvoluminous text I can think of. It has no index nor table of contents,but it's not a reference work anyway. People have enjoyed television because the message is not textual, butvisual (and aural). You don't have to focus intently on the screen toknow what's going on. Just listen, for the most part. Good qualityelectronic sound today seems to be far more advanced than good qualityelectronic imagery. Eventually, flat panel displays should reach the point where one mayhave an 8.5\" x 11\" display with text quality equal to print. But Iwonder if even that's good enough. Why Electronic Journals are Attractive Electronic journals have two principal advantages, based on questionableperceptions. First, the marginal cost of production is near zero,there is a wide perception of subsidization of the Net, and one expectsto be able to afford many more subscriptions than one could on paper (Isubscribe to over a hundred Usenet news groups and twenty or so mailinglists, for example). Second, with very short production times, thereis the illusion of being on the cutting edge. EJs, email and Usenetnews can reach me as fast as gossip among my colleagues. What To Do About It I have no solution to the dilemma of the technical bottleneck, of aninferior medium. For the near term, the publishing community shouldaccept the human factors of their end product. Perhaps scholarlyauthors will have to learn pictorial exposition, animation and televisionproduction! Language for electronic distribution must be terse. Althoughproduction cost per word is irrelevant, the electronic reader'saggravation with unnecessary language induces a virtual cost which maybe ruinous. Every article a precis! What I Did About It I'm not a regular writer (does it show), but here I've tried to hackmy thoughts down to a minimum.

I have been working withprogrammers to develop an easy to use interface that can be browsed,searched, or scanned more easily than a paper journal, and approximately100 people who have seen it agree that we have succeeded. Our otherrequirements were that complex mathematics and figures in severalelectronic formats must display within the text, as they did on theprinted page. The demonstration CD-ROM was a smashing success, but we still have tosolve several problems before distribution through the Internet canbe accomplished. Work continues on these hurdles. \\begin{diatribe}It is important to note that tagging the electronic files so theywill display on screen with quality equal to that of a printed journaltakes just as much work as typesetting a paper journal. Then there arethe added costs of mastering and pressing CD-ROMs, if CD-ROM distributionfor archival purposes is intended. Add to this the cost of licensingthe best display software available, and _quality_ e-journals cost aboutthe same to produce as paper journals today. The quality possible today is about 10 times better (subjective units)than one year ago. Most people have not seen what can be done today.Costs are about 20% of what they were three years ago.

Edward Tufte's books on this issue make his point in detail.But, the medium appears to be superior for ease of access to content,timeliness, and speed of communication. As a result, there is a dramaticshift of communications to this medium, but much less dramatic a shiftin other roles played by traditional scholarly works. Human capitalassessment, archiving, and gatekeeping roles remain largely fixed inthe print domain and will probably stay there for a long time. Thechange needed to effect a transfer of these roles does not relate tothe display. They will only shift as political positions related tothe measurement of scholarly contributions change and as technical(library organizational) processes improve.

I think, however,that he conflates two relatively independent desiderata in thefollowing: Peer Review and Open Peer Commentary. I have some experiencewith both, and they assuredly do NOT perform the same function, nor canone replace the other. The Net should be open, and should allow open discussion, all theway down to the unmoderated vanity press. But it should ALSO allow thosewho wish to filter their information more DISCRIMINATINGLY (and do nothave the time or inclination to sample everything) to systematicallyrestrict their reading (and writing) to peer reviewed material (andeven here there is a hierarchy of rigor with which peer review can beimplemented, and readers/authors should have their choice). Open Peer Commentary is splendid, indeed, in my opinion, it representsthe truly revolutionary dimension of electronic scholarly communication(\"Scholarly Skywriting\"). I've devoted over a decade and a half of mylife to it, in paper and on the Net. But it is no SUBSTITUTE for PeerReview. It is a COMPLEMENT to it. Indeed, Peer Commentary itself, atthe higher levels of the quality-control hierarchy, itself needs to bepeer-reviewed. The value of ideas and findings is not ascertained by a box score!Otherwise scholarly inquiry will devolve to the level of the beautycontests and opinion/consumer polls of the mass media. Let the vanity pressthrive, but please allow for the option of a more disciplined,constrained and answerable medium too -- and answerable to somethingother than a head count! Democracy is for people. Ideas require that thebest be judged by the best; if they are judged by all, you will simplyget regression onto the mean. The emphasis in peer reviw is on PEER, notPLEBS.

Virtual (purelycomputational) \"living\" systems, in contrast, are just ungroundedsymbol systems that are systematically interpretable as if they werealive; in reality they are no more alive than a virtual furnace is hot.Virtual systems are better viewed as \"symbolic oracles\" that can beused (interpreted) to predict and explain real systems, but not toinstantiate them. The vitalistic overinterpretation of virtual life isrelated to the animistic overinterpretation of virtual minds and isprobably based on an implicit (and possibly erroneous) intuitionthat living things have actual or potential mental lives. Bernhardt Lieberman : University of Pittsburgh : Bernie1@vms.cis.pitt.eduWhat the Controversies Over the Health Effects of Exposure toEnvironmental Tobacco Smoke Tell Us About the Debates BetweenObjectivists and Social Constructionistspreprints/Phil_of_Science Some social analyses of scientific knowledge are based on objectivistassumptions, while others assume that scientific knowledge is socialconstructed. The condemnation of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) bythe antismoking movement affects the life of virtually every Americanand uncounted millions of others throughout the world. Investigatorswho argue that ETS causes lung cancer claim the influence, objectivity,and authority of scientific inquiry, while critics of the results ofthe investigations argue that the conclusion that ETS causes lungcancer is unwarranted. The present study uses this fascinating andimportant sociotechnical controversy to shed light on the debatebetween objectivists and social constructionists and reaches theconclusion that the condemnation of environmental tobacco smoke is adeliberate social construction of an elite social movement which mixesadvocacy and alleged objective inquiry so that the actual relationshipbetween ETS and lung cancer will probably never be determined. THEORIESByGEORGE GALEUniversity of MissouriKansas City MO 64110ggale @vax1.umkc.edu It is useful to hybridize some of Steven Toulmin's and Rom Harre's ideasabout theories. Toulmin thinks that maps provided an informativeanalogy for the structure and function of theories in science. So do I.Harre thinks that icons and propositions fit together to make of theoriesstatement-picture complexes. So do I. The first two sections of this papershow how the two sets of notions might be put together. In the nextsection I show how Harre's ideas about models can be used to trace outthe progress of Robert Boyle toward his theory of pneumatics. Finally,these ideas are joined by some ideas of Ron Giere about how Mendel'stheory is structured; in the end I produce a fairly full picture of thescheme of neo-Mendelian genetics. Unfortunately, the picture itself isn't included in this special internetversion of the paper. If anyone manages to slog through the paper to theend, and STILL would like to see the figures, I'll be glad to snailmailthem to you. Request them either via e-mail or snailmail.By the way, this material was prepared for my sophomore/junior levelscientific methods class, and as a possible candidate for a new chapter inmy imagined revised edition of _Theory of Science_, McGraw-Hill, 1979.I'd sure appreciate your comments on this essay. Gregory R. Mulhauser : University of Edinburgh : Materialism and the \"Problem\" of Quantum Measurementpreprints/Phil_of_Mind Forthcoming in _Minds and Machines_ For nearly six decades, the conscious observer has played acentral and essential role in quantum measurement theory. Ioutline some difficulties which the traditional account ofmeasurement presents for material theories of mind beforeintroducing a new development which promises to exorcise theghost of consciousness from physics and relieve the cognitivescientist of the burden of explaining why certain materialstructures reduce wavefunctions by virtue of being consciouswhile others do not. The interactive decoherence of complexquantum systems reveals that the oddities and complexities oflinear superposition and state vector reduction are irrelevantto computational aspects of the philosophy of mind and thatmany conclusions in related fields are ill founded. Stevan Harnad : Princeton University : harnad@princeton.eduDoes the Mind Piggy-Back on Robotic and Symbolic Capacitypreprints/Phil_of_Mind To appear in: H. Morowitz (ed.) \"The Mind, the Brain, and ComplexAdaptive Systems. Cognitive science is a form of \"reverse engineering\" (as Dennett hasdubbed it). We are trying to explain the mind by building (orexplaining the functional principles of) systems that have minds. A\"Turing\" hierarchy of empirical constraints can be applied to thistask, from t1, toy models that capture only an arbitrary fragment ofour performance capacity, to T2, the standard \"pen-pal\" Turing Test(total symbolic capacity), to T3, the Total Turing Test (total symbolicplus robotic capacity), to T4 (T3 plus internal [neuromolecular]indistinguishability). All scientific theories are underdetermined bydata. What is the right level of empirical constraint for cognitivetheory I will argue that T2 is underconstrained (because of the SymbolGrounding Problem and Searle's Chinese Room Argument) and that T4 isoverconstrained (because we don't know what neural data, if any, arerelevant). T3 is the level at which we solve the \"other minds\" problemin everyday life, the one at which evolution operates (the BlindWatchmaker is no mind-reader either) and the one at which symbolsystems can be grounded in the robotic capacity to name and manipulatethe objects their symbols are about. I will illustrate this with a toymodel for an important component of T3 -- categorization -- usingneural nets that learn category invariance by \"warping\" similarityspace the way it is warped in human categorical perception:within-category similarities are amplified and between-categorysimilarities are attenuated. This analog \"shape\" constraint is thegrounding inherited by the arbitrarily shaped symbol that names thecategory and by all the symbol combinations it enters into. No matterhow tightly one constrains any such model, however, it will always bemore underdetermined than normal scientific and engineering theory.This will remain the ineliminable legacy of the mind/body problem. Those attending this conference and those reading the publishedvolume of papers arising from it will be struck by the radical shiftsin focus and content among the various categories of contribution.Immediately preceding mine, you have heard the two most neurobiologicalof the papers. Pat Goldman-Rakic discussed internal representation inthe brains of animals and Larry Squire discussed the brain basis ofhuman memory. Others are presenting data about human behavior, othersabout computational models, and still others about general classes ofphysical systems that might share the relevant properties of thesethree domains -- brain, behavior, and computation -- plus, one hopes, afurther property as well, namely, conscious experience: this is theproperty that, as our brains do whatever they do, as our behavior isgenerated, as whatever gets computed gets computed, there's somebodyhome in there, experiencing experiences during most of the time therest of it is all happening. It's the status of this last property that I'm going to discuss first.Traditionally, this topic is the purview of the philosopher,particularly in the form of the so-called \"mind/body\" problem, but these daysI find that philosophers, especially those who have become very closelyassociated with cognitive science and its actual practice,seem to be more dedicated to minimizing this problem (or even declaringit solved or nonexistent) than to giving it its full due, with all theperplexity and dissatisfaction that this inevitably leads to. Soalthough I am not a philosopher, I feel it is my duty to arouse in yousome of this perplexity and dissatisfaction -- if only to have itassuaged by the true philosophers who will also be addressing you here. Sule H. Elkatip : Bosphorus University : elkatip@trboun.bitnetIndividuation and Scotuspreprints/History_of_Phil/ INDIVIDUATION AND SCOTUS Dr. Sule H. Elkatip Dept. of Philosophy Bosphorus University Istanbul In the texts written by Scotus the most striking philosophicalachievement is his method of analysis. It is perhaps surprising to seethat he is often unwilling to adopt the philosophical analyses of hispredecessors. The major reason for this probably was that Scotus had notfound Aristotle's treatment of philosophical problems such as \"substance\",\"individuation\", \"being\" ultimate. For Scotus individuation applies to entities which in general give usour predicates such as quality and quantity and so forth. One of his argumentsis to the effect that these predicates enjoying being are where we shouldstart our philosophical analyzing rather than with substance. A secondargument considers the alternative of beginning with substance andafter criticizing it rejects it. This second argument points out thatstarting with predicates the principle for individualizing is attainednot by introducing things in addition to predicates but through furtheranalysis. The case for the substance theory is of course different. It doesnot begin with predication. It sets out with substances. These substancesare both particular and universal entities and are spoken of as primaryand secondary by Aristotle. The task, then, is to explain how this happensto be so. Scotus indicates that there is a logical difficulty in thisprocedure: not an outright contradiction perhaps but still some inconsistency. In Aristotle's framework the problem of substance presents itself as thecentral question to be addressed. In Scotus' philosophical texts the needto explain what substance is or what substances are is not felt as themost urgent question of philosophy. He concentrates not on the criteria forcalling something \"a substance\" but on how in fact we do talk about things.Parellel to this there is the following difference in the two frameworks.Aristotle wishes to classify exhaustively the kinds of sentences to beformed about the substances which he allows for according to his criteriaabout categories. Scotus analyzes the inferential relationships of statementsabout things. It may be better indeed to mark statements or even sentencesas his starting point instead of predication because the latter is arrivedupon after clarification. Naming something as \"substance\" was for Aristotle a way of calling it\"a being\". But, normally people do not go around visualizing or describingthings as \"substances\". Why should they do something like this They lookto see whether they are there or not. If we talk of something as \"a being\"or as \"substance\" we do this indirectly for Scotus. For him being is apresupposition. It is not, however, an implicit one because we make thisexplicit when we use the verb \"to be\". As we use predicates to pick out the determinations of things weengage in a claim to truth. This claim for truth values, according toScotus, necessitated verification so as not to end in a vicious infiniteregress. It is a fact, according to Scotus, that we use language to makestatements. There are things to begin with although one may not be certainas to whether they are substances or not. What is interesting for Scotusare the conditions or requirements which make this fact possible, in otherwords, the determinations of so called \"substances\". In epistemology theseare studied as those things which are present to the five senses. In logicthey are known as predicates. In metaphysics as universals. It would be incorrect to see in these arguments of Scotus a greatfigure in epistemology only because obviously at times they are strictlylogical or at times metaphysical in character. To put it roughly, in agenerally Aristotelian framework it is taught that predicates presupposesubstances and that substances presuppose being. It is possible to comeacross this interpretation in Thomist literature, for instance, in anarticle by Herbert McCabe, O.P., as well as in Allan Wolter's, O.F.M.,notes to his translated selections from Scotus. Thomists do add andemphasize that the being presupposed comes analogically in differentsenses. Given a classical understanding of validity, inference andimplication, predicates do not presuppose substances. \"Rational\" forinstance does not presuppose \"human\". \"Human\", on the other hand, wouldimply \"rational\". According to Wolter both \"rational\" and \"human\" presupposebeing from Scotus' point of view. But since the notion of being is simple,there must be univocity. However this can not be the position that Scotusis arguing for because it requires not only a postulate on the simplicityof being but also a postulate to insure the being of entities inaddition to substances, namely predicates. Hence according to this Scotistpoint of view endorsed for example notably by Wolter and also byhistorians of philosophy Scotus is presented as a realist Aristotelianwith various weighty epistemological arguments on the side. The postulatethat is attributed to Scotus in the notes of Wolter in relation to thebeing of predicates asserts that all predicamental entities are includedin (or implied by when construed in sentences) at least one substantialentity. If this postulate were not added univocity of being would not followand we would be left with a doctrine that is close to McCabe's standpointinstead of Scotus' for univocity of being is not reached and analogyremains. The only significant difference between the two would now bethat Scotists would be reinforcing logical standards by pointing out thatpredication does not presuppose substances but substantial statements implysome truths about predicates. Hence there are here two problems to be discussed. Does Scotus maintainsubstances along with predicates Does he say that all predicates areincluded in some substance or other The first question addresses Scotus'treatment of the traditional doctrine of substance. The second questionseems to have a negative answer for it is thought that Scotus' views onpossibility can not tolerate absolutely necessary connections among allpredications. This may be true for mathematics but not for every predicationotherwise.

If still having trouble, try, once you have the directory list forthe journal: Type (for example) cd (01)ContentsYour response should be 'CWD command successful', but no list.Type ls-lYour response should be in a form such as:-rw-rw-r--1 1689 77030 Oct 29 15:30 contentsType get contentsand you should have a copy. A final alternative if a space is magically inserted in the parenthesisof the file number is to specify: CD ./(01)Contents Please also be very careful when ftping *not* to leave *any* spacesin file names or make typos. Do NOT use Telnet. The best way to access the journal (in terms of both ease andtime) is by gopher, and we would urge you to do so. Thestructure of the journal is also more easily recognisable on gopher. Please try to access *here* in Tasmania either during the night,very early morning or at weekends, since during the business day the lines are crammed. This means you'll need to checkwith (e.g.) the international operator for the right time difference,but at the moment (the following is not an exhaustive list)Britain is 10 hours behind Tasmania; Europe, westto east, 9-7 hours; East Coast U.S.A. 15 hours; WestCoast U.S.A. 18 hours; South America, coastal to eastern,14-16 hours, South Africa 9 hours; Singapore 3 hours;and Japan 2 hours.
