T interface
A T-interface  or T reference point is used for basic rate access in an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) environment.  It is a User–network interface reference point that is characterized by a four-wire, 144 kbit/s (2B+D) user rate.

Other characteristics of a T-interface are:

it accommodates the link access and transport layer function in the ISDN architecture

it is located at the user premises

it is distance sensitive to the servicing Network termination 1

it functions in a manner similar to that of the Channel service units (CSUs) and the Data service units (DSUs).

The T interface is electrically equivalent to the S interface, and the two are jointly referred to as the S/T interface.

User–network interface
In telecommunications, a user–network interface (UNI) is a demarcation point between the responsibility of the service provider and the responsibility of the subscriber.  This is distinct from a network-to-network interface (NNI), which defines a similar interface between provider networks.

In Europe, most ski resorts are towns or villages in or adjacent to a ski area–a mountainous area with pistes (ski trails) and a ski lift system. In North America, it is more common for ski areas to exist well away from towns, so ski resorts usually are destination resorts, often purpose-built and self-contained, where skiing is the main activity.
Crofton Vandeleur
Crofton Vandeleur (1735 – 1794) was an Irish politician. He sat in the Irish House of Commons from 1768 to 1776 as a Member of Parliament (MP) for the borough of Ennis in County Clare.

The Vandeleurs were a family of Dutch origin, who settled in Ireland in the 1630s, living first at Sixmilebridge. They moved to Kilrush in the late 1680s and became prosperous landowners in the region. They did  much to improve the town of Kilrush, but later became very unpopular due to their harsh treatment of their tenants during the Great Hunger of the 1840s.

He married Alice, second daughter of Thomas Burton of Buncraggy and Dorothy Forster, daughter of John Forster, Chief Justice of the Irish Common Pleas, and had several children, including John Ormsby Vandeleur MP, and Thomas Burton Vandeleur, a justice of the Court of King's Bench (Ireland).

Industrial folk music
Industrial folk music, industrial folk song, industrial work song or working song is a subgenre of folk or traditional music that developed from the 18th century, particularly in Britain and North America, with songs dealing with the lives and experiences of industrial workers. The origins of industrial folk song are in the British Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century as workers tended to take the forms of music with which they were familiar, including ballads and agricultural work songs, and adapt them to their new experiences and circumstances. They also developed in France and the US as these countries began to industrialise.

The genre declined in the twentieth century, but were popularised as part of the folk revival by A. L. Lloyd, George Korson, John Lomax, Pete Seeger, Alan Lomax and Archie Green. Because of their political content they have been adapted by rock musicians.

American folk music revival
The American folk music revival began during the 1940s and peaked in popularity in the mid-1960s. Early folk music performers include Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, Pete Seeger, Richard Dyer-Bennet, Oscar Brand, Jean Ritchie, John Jacob Niles, Susan Reed, Mississippi John Hurt, Josh White, and Cisco Houston. Lead Belly recorded "Cotton Fields" and "Goodnight, Irene" and folk singer Odetta released folk albums.

New folk musicians such as Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell, Phil Ochs, Peter Paul & Mary and many others recorded folk songs and new compositions in the folk style in the 1960s and 1970s. The revival also brought forward strains of American folk music that had in earlier times contributed to the development of country and western, bluegrass, blues, and rock and roll music.

Contact language
A contact language is a language developed spontaneously by two (or more) populations, each initially speaking their own language, as they come into regular contact and find ways to communicate together – whether for trade or other reasons.

Contact languages have varying degrees of complexity, depending on the duration and intensity of social relations between the two groups. They may range from basic trade languages with limited vocabulary, to fully-fledged language systems, known as pidgins and creoles.

When the resulting language shows a rough balance between elements of both original languages, it is labelled a hybrid or mixed language. When the contact language results from the merger of dialects that were already close to begin with, the resulting contact language is known as a koiné.

Rocchio algorithm
The Rocchio algorithm is based on a method of relevance feedback found in information retrieval systems which stemmed from the SMART Information Retrieval System developed between 1960 and 1964. Like many other retrieval systems, the Rocchio algorithm was developed using the vector space model. Its underlying assumption is that most users have a general conception of which documents should be denoted as relevant or irrelevant. Therefore, the user's search query is revised to include an arbitrary percentage of relevant and irrelevant documents as a means of increasing the search engine's recall, and possibly the precision as well. The number of relevant and irrelevant documents allowed to enter a query is dictated by the so called weights, i.e. the variables ,  and  listed below in the Algorithm section.

Centroid
In mathematics and physics, the centroid, also known as geometric center or center of figure, of a plane figure or solid figure is the mean position of all the points in the figure. The same definition extends to any object in -dimensional Euclidean space.

In geometry, one often assumes uniform mass density, in which case the barycenter or center of mass coincides with the centroid. Informally, it can be understood as the point at which a cutout of the shape (with uniformly distributed mass) could be perfectly balanced on the tip of a pin.

In physics, if variations in gravity are considered, then a center of gravity can be defined as the weighted mean of all points weighted by their specific weight.

In geography, the centroid of a radial projection of a region of the Earth's surface to sea level is the region's geographical center.
