Jess (falconry)
A jess (plural "jesses") is a thin strap, traditionally made from leather, used to tether a hawk or falcon in falconry. Jesses allow a falconer to keep control of a bird while it is on the glove or in training, and allow a bird to be secured on a perch outside its aviary. Types Jesses come in various types: * Flying/Hunting jesses: short jesses without the swivel slit so as to not hamper the hawk as it flies or to snag on things as it moves from perch to perch—mainly to help control the bird while on the glove in the field. Flying jesses are often even smaller and lighter than hunting jesses, and are permanently attached to their anklets so they will not be lost; both types ''may'' have the swivel slit on them, based on the falconer's preference, but most often do not. * Mews jesses: long jesses that the hawk wears while it is in a mews or an aviary. * Traditional and Aylmeri: See below. Description Jesses are generally made from strips of leather as thin as possible, for w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Jess (programming Language)
Jess is a rule engine for the Java platform that was developed by Ernest Friedman-Hill of Sandia National Labs. It is a superset of the CLIPS programming language. It was first written in late 1995. The language provides rule-based programming for the automation of an expert system, and is frequently termed as an ''expert system shell''. In recent years, intelligent agent systems have also developed, which depend on a similar capability. Rather than a procedural paradigm, where a single program has a loop that is activated only one time, the declarative paradigm used by Jess continuously applies a collection of rules to a collection of facts by a process called ''pattern matching''. Rules can modify the collection of facts, or they can execute any Java code. It uses the Rete algorithm to execute rules. License While CLIPS is licensed as open source, Jess is not open source. JESS is free for educational and government use but a license is required to use JESS for commercial sy ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Joint Expert Speciation System
Joint Expert Speciation System (JESS) is a package of computer software and data developed collaboratively at Murdoch University and elsewhere by researchers interested in the chemical thermodynamics of water solutions with important applications in industry, biochemistry, medicine and the environment. Using information from the chemical literature, stored in databases for numerous chemical properties, JESS achieves coherence between frequently conflicting sources by automatic methods. JESS places a strong emphasis on the concept of chemical speciation (''i.e''. the identity and relative abundance of different chemical entities which may be present), which can be predicted from known stability constants of metal-ligand complexes. Characteristic quantities for water solutions such as solubilities, equilibrium constants, activity coefficients, heat capacities and densities can be calculated from changes in the chemical speciation. Recent examples of practical problems that can be ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
