    Terminology

    In older literature, such as the original work of Bousfield–Kan \cite{BousfieldKan}, the homotopy limit of a diagram X:I→sSetX\colon I\to sSet is defined as the weighted limit

    hom(I/−,X),hom(I/-, X),

    where the weight I/−I/- sends i↦N(I/i)i\mapsto N(I/i), the nerve of the comma category of ii.

    Such a functor must be derived in order to get the correct (homotopy invariant) notion, which in this case amounts to replacing XX with an objectwise weakly equivalent diagram valued in Kan complexes.

    At some point (when?) a shift in terminology happened, and in the modern parlance homotopy limits are commonly assumed to be derived.

    I have added to this addition (here) a link to Bousfield-Kan map and also to the entry’s own section “Resolved (co)ends”.
