Multiplicity (film)
''Multiplicity'' is a 1996 American science fiction comedy film starring Michael Keaton and Andie MacDowell about a man able to duplicate himself by machine, each duplicate developing a different personality, causing problems. It was based on Chris Miller's short story of the same name, published in '' National Lampoon'' magazine. The film was co-produced and directed by Harold Ramis. The original music score was composed by George Fenton. The film was released July 17, 1996. It received mixed reviews from critics, and grossed a worldwide total of $37 million at the box office, significantly less than its $45 million budget. Plot Doug Kinney works in construction in Los Angeles, and his job constantly gets in the way of his family. Working on a new wing of a scientific facility, Doug meets Dr. Leeds, a scientist who developed a method for cloning humans. He is introduced to Dr. Leeds' clone as proof. Sympathetic to Doug's troubles, Dr. Leeds clones him, so the clone can ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Multiplicity (chemistry)
In spectroscopy and quantum chemistry, the multiplicity of an energy level is defined as ''2S+1'', where ''S'' is the total spin angular momentum. States with multiplicity 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are respectively called singlets, doublets, triplets, quartets and quintets. In the ground state of an atom or molecule, the unpaired electrons usually all have parallel spin. In this case the multiplicity is also equal to the number of unpaired electrons plus one. Atoms The multiplicity is often equal to the number of possible orientations of the total spin relative to the total orbital angular momentum ''L'', and therefore to the number of near– degenerate levels that differ only in their spin–orbit interaction energy. For example, the ground state of a carbon Carbon () is a chemical element; it has chemical symbol, symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalence, tetravalent—meaning that its atoms are able to form up to four covalent bonds due to its valence ...

Multiplicity (informatics)
In software engineering, a class diagram in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations (or methods), and the relationships among objects. The class diagram is the main building block of object-oriented modeling. It is used for general conceptual modeling of the structure of the application, and for detailed modeling, translating the models into programming code. Class diagrams can also be used for data modeling. The classes in a class diagram represent both the main elements, interactions in the application, and the classes to be programmed. In the diagram, classes are represented with boxes that contain three compartments: * The top compartment contains the name of the class. It is printed in bold and centered, and the first letter is capitalized. * The middle compartment contains the attributes of the class. They are left-aligned and the first ...

Multiplicity (mathematics)
In mathematics, the multiplicity of a member of a multiset is the number of times it appears in the multiset. For example, the number of times a given polynomial has a root at a given point is the multiplicity of that root. The notion of multiplicity is important to be able to count correctly without specifying exceptions (for example, ''double roots'' counted twice). Hence the expression, "counted with multiplicity". If multiplicity is ignored, this may be emphasized by counting the number of ''distinct'' elements, as in "the number of distinct roots". However, whenever a set (as opposed to multiset) is formed, multiplicity is automatically ignored, without requiring use of the term "distinct". Multiplicity of a prime factor In prime factorization, the multiplicity of a prime factor is its p-adic valuation. For example, the prime factorization of the integer is : the multiplicity of the prime factor is , while the multiplicity of each of the prime factors and is . ...

Multiplicity (software)
Multiplicity is a computer program that enables one keyboard and mouse to access two or more ''client'' computers from a ''host'' computer. It was developed for Stardock as part of their ThinkDesk subscription service, but is available separately. Operation and features Multiplicity is unlike remote desktop applications in that instead of opening windows to a client computer on a host computer’s desktop, the mouse pointer and keyboard focus shifts from one computer to another. It is closer in concept to a KVM switch, but while these have multiple cables to each computer, with Multiplicity the keyboard and mouse remain connected to the host computer and input is forwarded from the host to client machines via network connections — typically over TCP/IP port 30564. Each computer uses its own display. Switching is triggered by movement of the mouse to the appropriate side of the screen (or keyboard shortcuts, if desired), both from the desktop and in full-screen video modes. ...

Multiplicity (statistical Mechanics)
In statistical mechanics, multiplicity (also called statistical weight) refers to the number of microstates corresponding to a particular macrostate of a thermodynamic system. Commonly denoted \Omega, it is related to the configuration entropy of an isolated system via Boltzmann's entropy formula S = k_\text \log \Omega, where S is the entropy and k_\text is the Boltzmann constant. Example: the two-state paramagnet A simplified model of the two-state paramagnet provides an example of the process of calculating the multiplicity of particular macrostate. This model consists of a system of microscopic dipoles which may either be aligned or anti-aligned with an externally applied magnetic field . Let N_\uparrow represent the number of dipoles that are aligned with the external field and N_\downarrow represent the number of anti-aligned dipoles. The energy of a single aligned dipole is U_\uparrow = -\mu B, while the energy of an anti-aligned dipole is U_\downarrow = \mu B; t ...

Multiple Comparisons
Multiple comparisons, multiplicity or multiple testing problem occurs in statistics when one considers a set of statistical inferences simultaneously or estimates a subset of parameters selected based on the observed values. The larger the number of inferences made, the more likely erroneous inferences become. Several statistical techniques have been developed to address this problem, for example, by requiring a stricter significance threshold for individual comparisons, so as to compensate for the number of inferences being made. Methods for family-wise error rate give the probability of false positives resulting from the multiple comparisons problem. History The problem of multiple comparisons received increased attention in the 1950s with the work of statisticians such as Tukey and Scheffé. Over the ensuing decades, many procedures were developed to address the problem. In 1996, the first international conference on multiple comparison procedures took place in Tel Aviv. ...

Multiplicity (Christianity)
Godhead (or ''godhood'') refers to the essence or substance (''ousia'') of God in Christianity — God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Appearance in English Bibles John Wycliffe introduced the term into English Bible versions in two places, and, though somewhat archaic, the term survives in modern English because of its use in three places of the Tyndale New Testament (1525), the Geneva Bible (1560/1599), and King James Version (1611). In that translation, the word was used to translate three different Koine Greek words: See also * God in Christianity * Godhead in Judaism * Trinity The Trinity (, from 'threefold') is the Christian doctrine concerning the nature of God, which defines one God existing in three, , consubstantial divine persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit, thr ...

Multiplicity (philosophy)
Multiplicity () is a philosophical concept developed by Edmund Husserl and Henri Bergson from Riemann's description of the mathematical concept. In his essay The Idea of Duration, Bergson discusses multiplicity in light of the notion of unity. Whereas a unity refers to a given thing in as far as it is a whole, multiplicity refers to the "parts of the unity which can be considered separately." Bergson distinguishes two kinds of multiplicity: one form of multiplicity refers to parts which are quantitative, distinct, and countable, and the other form of multiplicity refers to parts that are qualitative, which interpenetrate, and which each can give rise to qualitatively different perception of the whole.Bergson (2002,72-74) See also * Contextualism * Perspectivism Perspectivism (also called perspectivalism) is the epistemological principle that perception of and knowledge of something are always bound to the interpretive perspectives of those observing it.
