Question: Which essential task within NetOps pertains to the projection of their status after some variable has changed, such as time, or some other variable, such as a predetermined event?

Context paragraphs:
Motor learning: Motor learning is a change, resulting from practice or a novel experience, in the capability for responding.  It often involves improving the smoothness and accuracy of movements and is obviously necessary for complicated movements such as speaking, playing the piano, and climbing trees; but it is also important for calibrating simple movements like reflexes, as parameters of the body and environment change over time.  Motor learning research often considers variables that contribute to motor program formation (i.e., underlying skilled motor behaviour), sensitivity of error-detection processes, and strength of movement schemas (see motor program).  Motor learning is "relatively permanent", as the capability to respond appropriately is acquired and retained.  As a result, the temporary processes that affect behaviour during practice or experience should not be considered learning, but rather transient performance effects.  As such, the main components underlying the behavioural approach to motor learning are structure of practice and feedback given.  The former pertains to the manipulation of timing and organization of practice (potentially for different subtasks or variations of the task) for optimal information retention (also see varied practice), while the latter pertains to the influence of feedback on the preparation, anticipation, and guidance of movement.

NetOps: NetOps is defined as the operational framework consisting of three essential tasks, Situational Awareness (SA), and Command & Control (C2) that the Commander (CDR) of US Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM), in coordination with DoD and Global NetOps Community, employs to operate, manage and defend the Global Information Grid (GIG) to ensure information superiority for the United States.

Situation awareness: Situational awareness or situation awareness (SA) is the perception of environmental elements and events with respect to time or space, the comprehension of their meaning, and the projection of their status after some variable has changed, such as time, or some other variable, such as a predetermined event.  It is also a field of study concerned with understanding of the environment critical to decision-makers in complex, dynamic areas from aviation, air traffic control, ship navigation, power plant operations, military command and control, and emergency services such as fire fighting and policing; to more ordinary but nevertheless complex tasks such as driving an automobile or riding a bicycle.

Lorenzo Valla's Dialogue on Free Will: Lorenzo Valla's Dialogue on Free Will (De libero arbitrio) is one in a series of dialogues written by Valla throughout his lifetime.  The work discusses his views on the concept of free will as it pertains the Catholic Church's opinion on predestination at the time.  The concept of predestination, in the opinion of the Catholic Church, deals with the fact that God has predetermined our lives, and that he knows how we will act.  Many philosophers of the time argued that if humans' lives are in fact predetermined by God, than in reality the concept of free will is simply an illusion.  Essentially the argument is that if God has created us already knowing the decisions we will make, than those decisions are not actually ours.  Valla, through a fictional dialogue amongst the work's characters, defends the idea that the concepts of predetermination and free will can coexist.  In the work, Valla states that he is attempting to directly refute the works of the 6th century philosopher Boethius.

Neknominate: Neknominate, also known as neck and nominate, neknomination or neck nomination, is an online drinking game.  The original parameters of the game require the participant to film themselves drinking a pint of an alcoholic beverage, usually beer, in one gulp and upload the footage to the web.  The participant then nominates one other to do the same and so on and so forth.  The nominated person has to complete the task within 24 hours.

ABU Robocon: The Asia-Pacific Robot Contest (ABU Robocon) is an Asian Oceanian College robot competition, founded in 2002 by Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union.  In the competition robots compete to complete a task within a set period of time.  The contest aims to create friendship among young people with similar interests who will lead their countries in the 21st century, as well as help advance engineering and broadcasting technologies in the region.  The event is broadcast in many countries through ABU member broadcasters.

Event segment: A segment of a system variable shows a homogenous status of system dynamics over a time period.  Here, a homogenous status of a variable is a state which can be described by a set of coefficients of a formula.  For example, of homogenous statuses, we can bring status of constant ('ON' of a switch) and linear (60 miles or 96 km per hour for speed).  Mathematically, a segment is a function mapping from a set of times which can be defined by an real interval, to the set formula_1 [Zeigler76],[ZPK00], [Hwang13].  A trajectory of a system variable is a sequence of segments concatenated.  We call a trajectory constant (respectively linear) if its concatenating segments are constant (respectively linear).

Variable electro-precipitator: A variable electro-precipitator (VEP) is a produced and waste water remediation unit using electrocoagulation.  The difference between a standard electro coagulation (EC) unit and a Variable Electro Precipitation unit are in the enhanced flow path and the unit electrode connections.  The variable electro-precipitator's flow-path has been designed to maximize retention time and to increase the turbulence of the water within the unit.  This design greatly aids in increasing the amount of effective treatment per gallon of water.

Variable shunt reactor: Variable Shunt Reactors are used in high voltage energy transmission systems to stabilize the voltage during load variations.  A traditional shunt reactor has a fixed rating and is either connected to the power line all the time or switched in and out depending on the load.  Recently Variable Shunt Reactors (VSR) have been developed and introduced on the market.  The rating of a VSR can be changed in steps, The maximum regulation range typically is a factor of two, e.g. from 100-200 Mvar.  The regulation speed is normally in the order seconds per step and around a minute from max to min rating.  VSRs are today available for voltages up to 550 kV.  The largest three-phase VSRs in operation have a rating of 120-200 Mvar at 420 kV and single-phase variable shunt reactors banks rated 200-285 Mvar at 420 kV have been installed in Italy.

Air Intelligence Officer: An air intelligence officer serves to collect information about air operations and assist in the direction of their execution for maximum effect.  The evaluation of target damage is an essential task of the air intelligence officer, who is expected to use a variety of technologies to acquire, analyze, and assess information regarding the effects of air operations and the potential results of future operations.  The air intelligence office typically serves as the G-2 officer (the staff officer responsible for intelligence) in a particular command staff, however such an officer may also serve as G-3 officer (operations and plans) where their role will be more focused on the direction of air operations than on the collection and analysis of intelligence.
