Pues porque tengo la idea de que lo hemos hablado, y de hecho, la entrada del glosario la pusiste tu, no yo :-p
¡Maldición! Es que puedes llegar a ser muy persistente... había que unificar criterios y para evitar males mayores, pues yo... lo puse O:-)
Pero si fui persistente estará por algún sitio.
¿disk and execution monitor? >:-)
No cuela... Tenemos la confirmación "oficial" :-P
Ah, pues si Maxwell dijo daemon, nada que objetar :-p [Warning: This paragraph is about science so, if this topic causes you undue alarm, please close your eyes until you've finished reading it.] The 19th century scientist James Maxwell once daydreamed (the polite term is "thought experiment") about a problem in physics. He imagined a closed container which was divided in half. In the middle of the divider was a tiny gate, just large enough to admit one molecule of gas. This gate, in Maxwell's imagination, was operated by a tiny daemon. This daemon observed the speed (i.e. temperature) of the molecules heading for the gate and, depending on the speed, let them through. If he let only slow molecules pass from side A to side B and only fast molecules pass from side B to side A, then A would get hot while B cooled. Maxwell's daemon was only imaginary, of course, but as it seemed to evade the laws of thermodynamics it caused quite a stir. Eventually, though, the theory of quantum mechanics showed why it wouldn't work. [OK, you may open your eyes, now.]
"(...) Our assumption was confirmed to us directly by Professors Corbato and Saltzer, who worked on a system development project at MIT in 1963 known as Project MAC. They and members of their team first used daemon in this sense at that time, basing it on Maxwell's daemon. ***
Significado distinto del tradicional "demonio", que es malvado.
¡Un demonio no es malvado, es neutral!
Malvado es para los cristiano-católicos (que los utilizaban para asustar al personal :-P)
Creo que son los judeocristianos. En Europa son malvados :-p
Mmmm... daemonizado... no pinta mal... no se... :-P
¡Arrrgh! >:-)
Que vale. Obvio, ¿que voy a decir? Puesto asín...
Me refería al resto... lluis, Miguel A., César, Alex, Matamax, Balfred...
