Common character; likeness.
Commonness; frequency.
A group of people, normally living in a defined area, who acknowledge shared characteristics and may act together to maintain or protect one or more shared characteristics.
The many populations that interact in a given geographical locale constitute ecological communities. Communities exhibit particular interactions such as competition, symbiosis, predation, and food relationships. They also undergo ecological succession.
A group of people who lead a common life and have common interests. In a religious context, it involves following a definite Gospel way of life together.
A place, or a class of people having something in common that may transcend geography.
Plants and/or animals living together under characteristic, recognisable conditions.
In ecology, the species that interact in a common area.
a place where a group of people live.
Group of one or more management stations associated with an SNMP agent.
All living organisms in an area.
A group of plants or animals living in a defined area under relatively similar conditions. An association or assemblage of plant and animal populations that live in a particular area or habitat, often dominated by one or more prominent species or by a characteristic physical attribute. The time and distance each organism moves before it is captured and eaten are largely what determines the area defined by the community and the time for which its dynamic equilibrium thrives. Often characterised by: (1) Growth form and structure; (2) Diversity (number of species); (3) Relative abundance; (4) Dominance and subdominance of species; (5) Feeding hierarchy - what eats what. On land, usually soil has a greater effect on vegetation than climate; of climatic factors, temperature and moisture are most important.
(3) an assemblage of plant and animal populations in a common spatial arrangement.
refers not only to a group of people who live in a defined territory, but also to groups of people who may be physically separated but who are connected by other common characteristics, such as profession, interests, age, ethnic origin, or language.
An administrative relationship between Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) entities (such as clients, routers, and servers).
A group of individuals organized into a unit, or manifesting a unifying trait or common interest. A community could be the catchment area population for which a service is provided, or more broadly, a province or country.
an assemblage of populations of living organisms in a certain area or habitat.
Populations of all species living and interacting in an area at a particular time.
A geographic locale or a group of people working toward a common issue. Geographic locale: A place or small geographic area; a group of people sharing some interest; or a social network of relationships at a local level. Common issue: Boundaried social or demographic unit involving a neighborhood or people who share a common issue or interest. Communities are not homogeneous, but are inclusive, complex, dynamic and multidimensional.
Entity and ideal. Can signify geographical area, social group, shared values, histories, and/or interests.
A specific group of people, often living in a defined geographic area, who share a common culture, values, and norms and who are arranged in a social structure according to relationships the community has developed over a period of time. The term “community” encompasses worksites, schools, and health care sites.
A group of people with common interests who have developed relationships based upon shared beliefs and social circumstances. A community may be geographical, social, cultural, religious or needs based.
a community made of people who have no contact in the real world, but only over a technological system, by engaging on discussions or by communicating or by having the same interests they share in the virtual world.
In ecology, this term refers to the populations of animals and plants that live within a defined area. (For example, all the plants and animals that live in South Mountain Park would be a community.)
community is a group of people who belong together.
A group of people living in the same place and sharing the same government.
A grouping of people that see each other as integral parts of the whole. You can have a family community, local community, sports team community, etc.
A collection of organisms occupying a specific geographic area.
A set of user-management services associated with a set of accounts (q.v.). A community operates a registration scheme by which users join the community. A community operates a certificate authority for its accounts; i.e. it may issue identity warrants (q.v.) for those accounts, but not for accounts in other communities. The community may also operate a register of groups; i.e. it records the membership of groups (q.v.) and may issue group warrants (q.v.)
A collection of populations of organisms of different species that interact in some way and that live in a common area. It is the interaction between the populations (predation, competition, symbiosis, scavenging) that is of interest.
Populations of plant and animal organisms living in a given area.
An integrated group of species inhabiting a given area; the organisms within a community influence one another's distribution, abundance, and evolution. (A Human Community is a social group of any size whose members reside in a specific locality.)
A community is a group of people who have shared values and who work together towards a common goal. A community is often also defined by geographical boundaries.
A constantly changing group of people collaborating and sharing their ideas over an electronic network (e.g., the Internet). Communities optimize their collective power by affiliation around a common interest, by the compression of the time between member interactions (i.e., communicating in real time), and by asynchronous "postings" which potentially reach more participants and allow for more reflection time than real-time interactions.
The word community generally describes one of three things: a) all people, organizations, and structures within a defined geographical area, having a common government; b) a group of people with a common interest; or c) people with a common affiliation. Within O-AIM the word community is only used in the first sense. It encompasses five levels of interaction (individual, group, agency, service system, and community). Within O-AIM the other two definitions would commonly be considered within the "group." See also Levels of Interaction
Assembly of populations of different species of living organisms (quite often interdependent on and interacting with each other) within a specified location in space and time. See also ecosystem. (US-EPA, 1992)
Community can be a troubling term. Often when people on campus talk about community, they are referring to the organizations that the college or university partners with. However, the community is often not fully represented by the organizations that claim to serve it. Community can be used in a number of ways to apply to almost any group of individuals. In the most general sense it describes a geographic group whose members engage in some face-to-face interaction. Such communities exist all around us in our neighborhoods, our schools, our workplaces, our campuses, etc.
aggregation of organisms characterised by a distinctive combination of two or more ecologically related species
A natural aggregate of different species of organisms existing in the same environment. While species within the community interact with each other, forming food chains and other ecological systems, they do not generally interact with species in other communities. For the purposes of NVIS, a community is described as an assemblage of plant species which are structurally and floristically similar and form a repeating 'unit' across the landscape. See also vegetation type below. Meagher, 1991 NVIS
A social group whose members live in a specific area. Chimpanzees live in communities.
all organisms of all species in one habitat.
a situation in which populations of organisms each contain a habitat and a niche.
an interacting population of various types of individuals (or species) in a common location; a neighborhood or specific area where people live
A group seen as a distinct segment of society. This can be people living within a geographic area, people sharing a common characteristic or identity such as ethnic origin or religion, a ‘lifecycle' group such as older people, or a group sharing a particular interest.
a group of organisms made up of two or more different species living together within the same geographical area where they are likely to interact with each other; example, a forest community.
In SNMP, a logical group of managed devices and NMSs in the same administrative domain.
An association of living things, plant and animal, each occupying a certain position or ecological niche, inhabiting a common environment and interacting with each other.
A password used between an agent and a manager to allow the exchange of MIB data. The community table contains a list of community strings (passwords) that a given SNMP agent recognizes. A community string is tied to a particular manager in the sense that messages from only that manager with that community string will be treated as authentic.
All the groups of organisms living together in the same area, usually interacting or depending on each other for existence. Also called biological community.
a group with a commonality of association and generally defined by location, shared experience, or function. A social group that has a number of things in common, such as shared experience, locality, culture, heritage, language, ethnicity, pastimes, occupation, workplace, etc.28
an assemblage of plants and animals that exist together to make up a particular type of ecosystem.
a collection of all living things (plants, animals, fungi and micro-organisms) existing together in a particular area.
A group of organisms of different species that live in the same place and share their food and space.
Different species of fish kept in the same aquarium.
A term used to describe groups of populations of different organisms all living together in a particular environment
Group of people with common characteristics, locations or interests.
A Tamado community can be considered as a small-scaled web site. In chief, it provides miscellaneous functions of message boards to let people meet together and discuss.
A group of people in the same geographic location with specific geographic, demographic or social boundaries.
A group of network clients and servers using TNS-based software that can communicate using the same industry-standard protocol.
all the people living in a specific area within which they satisfy many of their needs, identify with the geographic area, and share common interests and goals; a number of people sharing traditions or interests (e.g. an ethnic group, a community of scholars)
Many Web sites choose to develop communities in order to maintain visitor loyalty. Chat rooms and Bulletin Board Service are common ways of developing a Web site community.
An organisational grouping of objects by commonality. Although the definition is up for interpretation as far as how the system will be used, an example would be 'UQ Library' or 'Faculty of Behavioural Sciences' or 'Office of Research and Postgraduate Studies'. A Community can have many collections inside it.
