MSC Daniela. MSC Daniela is the lead ship of her class of container ship operated by the Mediterranean Shipping Company that at  is one of the largest container ships of the world, with a twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) cargo capacity of 14,000 containers. The building of MSC Daniela was started on 1 July 2006 and finished at the end of 2008; the ship was subsequently crowned as the largest according to cargo capacity. The shipbuilder was Samsung Heavy Industries in Geoje, South Korea.

However, MSC Daniela is now neither the longest container ship in the world, nor does it have the largest tonnage.

Design
MSC Daniela has an overall length of , a moulded beam of  and draft, when the ship is fully loaded of . The deadweight tonnage (DWT) of the vessel is 165,000 metric tons and the gross tonnage (GT) is 135,000 gross tons. The ship is large and requires a strong and reliable engine. Powered by a MAN SE B&W 12K98MC-C diesel engine with total output of , the vessel is able to realize a maximum speed of , while the cruising speed is .

Operational history
In April 2017, MSC Daniela suffered extensive damage when a container caught fire approximately  off Colombo. Firefighting efforts were coordinated by the Sri Lankan Navy and Colombo Port Authority which evacuated her crew and returned the ship safely to port. The ship was repaired jointly by the CIC Changxing Shipyard and COSCO Qidong Offshore and was successfully redelivered to MSC in late August.

Léon Thévenin (ship). The Léon Thévenin is a French cable-laying vessel named in honour of French engineer Léon Charles Thévenin.

The Léon Thévenin was famously used in conjunction with a robot submarine named  Scarab 1 for recovering the flight data recorder (FDR) and cockpit voice recorder (CVR) boxes from Air India Flight 182 that was destroyed in mid-air by a bomb as it was crossing Irish airspace, on 23 June 1985.

By 4 July, the sonar of the British ship Gardline Locater had detected signals on the seabed and on 9 July the CVR was pin-pointed and raised to the surface by the Scarab 1. The next day the FDR was located and recovered.

It is currently owned and operated by Orange Marine, operating out of the Port of Cape Town, and replacing the function of the CS Chamarel, which was previously stationed there to service African undersea fiber cables.

Oracle Data Integrator. Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is an extract, load, transform (ELT) tool (in contrast with the ETL common approach) produced by Oracle that offers a graphical environment to build, manage and maintain data integration processes in business intelligence systems.

History 

Oracle purchased Sunopsis in October 2006 and re-branded it as Oracle Data Integrator (ODI). The aim of this acquisition was to enhance the Oracle Fusion Middleware offering, which required broad support to heterogeneous sources and targets. After the purchase Oracle continued to offer separately ODI as well as its former ETL product Oracle Warehouse Builder. In January 2010 Oracle announced their intention to merge them into a single product (Oracle Data Integrator Enterprise Edition).

Components 

Oracle Data Integrator comprises the following components:

 The Modular Repository, made up of a master repository and of one or several work repositories to store metadata about the data integration process. These repositories can be installed on any database engine that supports ANSI ISO 89 syntax.
 The graphical interface modules (topology manager, designer, security manager, operator) and the execution agents (agent). These are entirely built with Java components that give access to the repository in client/server mode.
 Metadata Navigator, a Servlet/JSP application that enables access to the repository through a Web interface.
 Lightweight Designer, a Web application to view and edit objects in the repository through a Web browser.
 Oracle Data Integrator Public Web Services, which allow users to leverage Oracle Data Integrator features in a Service-oriented architecture (SOA).

Engineers (Gary Numan album). Engineers is a limited edition (3000 copies) digipak live album, released by Gary Numan's previous label, Beggars Banquet. The album was recorded at the Capitol Theatre, Sydney, Australia on 31 May 1980.

The album captures the very last concert of "The Touring Principle," Numan's 1979-80 world tour in support of his album The Pleasure Principle (1979). The tour yielded a previous live album, Living Ornaments '79 (1980, expanded edition 1998). As Living Ornaments '79 was drawn from the tour's first leg and Engineers was drawn from the fourth, there are notable differences between the track lists of both albums. While the expanded edition of Living Ornaments '79 contains a live version of one song from Numan's then-forthcoming album Telekon ("Remember I Was Vapour"), Engineers contains three ("Remind Me to Smile," "Remember I Was Vapour", and "I Die: You Die", plus "Trois Gymnopédies", a studio version of which was also recorded by Numan during the Telekon sessions). Unlike Living Ornaments '79, Engineers contains no songs drawn from Numan's 1978 album Tubeway Army.

Phonorecord. A phonorecord is defined by the United States Copyright Act of 1976 to be a material object that embodies sounds (other than those accompanying audio-visual recordings such as movies). 

From the Copyright Act: “Phonorecords” are material objects in which sounds, other than those accompanying a motion picture or other audiovisual work, are fixed by any method now known or later developed, and from which the sounds can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or device. The term “phonorecords” includes the material object in which the sounds are first fixed.

For example: all of the following are "phonorecords" under the law: A wire recording; a 16-rpm, 33-rpm, 45-rpm or 78-rpm phonograph record (vinyl disc), a reel-to-reel tape, an 8-track tape, a compact cassette tape, a compact disc, an audio DVD, and an MP3 file stored on a computer, compact disc or USB flash drive.

To explain the legal distinction between definitions, suppose a person or group takes a song and makes a performance.  The recorded performance is a sound recording (also called phonogram); the physical media that the sound recording is stored upon is a phonorecord.

ABNT NBR 15607. The standard ABNT NBR 15607-1:2008 - Digital terrestrial television – Interactivity channel establishes the ways in which a receiver device can send information back to the broadcaster through different communication mechanisms. The transmission of common broadcasting content will be done through the air through the main programming feed, while a more customized use of content can be sent through the interactive channel.

The standard was written by telecommunications and television experts from many countries with their works coordinated by the SBTVD Forum and cover in detail all the aspects of video and audio coding that applies to SBTVD. The complete document can be found and downloaded freely in English, Spanish and Portuguese at ABNT's website.

Introduction
The interactivity channel aspects of the Brazilian Digital Terrestrial Television Standards are described in document ABNT NBR 15607-1:2008 - Digital terrestrial television – Interactivity channel -Part 1: Protocols, physical and software Interfaces, published by ABNT, the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas).

The standard establishes the ways in which a receiver device can send information back to the broadcaster through different communication means. The transmission of common broadcasting content will be done through the air through the main programming feed, while a more customized use of content can be sent through the interactive channel.

Document technical overview
Brazilian proposal for the interactivity channel is focused on flexibility and is based on TCP/IP protocol. Receiver shall have a USB interface for an external Modem connection. This is adequate to comply with an existing telecomm infrastructure of multiple technologies and is also open for future innovations.

Also, the standard allows for many different possible ways of connecting a receiver device to a network, and use it as an interactivity channel. Future technologies in communications can be easily integrated in the proposed system.

These documents are also available at ABNT website.

Summary
Interactivity channel is the name used for any communication mean that allows a receiver to send information back to the broadcaster. Some times called return channel, the name interactivity channel seems more correct since applications can be sent through the broadcast side and the through the channel itself.

The document describing the reference specification for the interactivity channel is ABNT NBR 15607-1:2008 - Digital terrestrial television – Interactivity channel -Part 1: Protocols, physical and software Interfaces.
