Analitik. Analitik () is a programming language, developed in 1968 at the Institute of Cybernetics of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR in the USSR. It is a development on the ALMIR-65 language, keeping compatibility with it.

Distinctive features of the language are abstract data types, calculations in arbitrary algebras, and analytic transformations.

It was implemented on MIR-2 machines.

Later, a version of Analitik-74 was developed, implemented on MIR-3 machines.

At the moment, the language exists as a computer algebra system, Analitik-2010, which is being developed jointly by the Institute of Mathematical Machines and Systems of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the Poltava National Technical University.

IBM Laboratory Vienna. IBM Laboratory Vienna was an IBM research laboratory based in Vienna, Austria.

The laboratory started with a group led by Heinz Zemanek that moved from the Technische Hochschule (now the Technical University of Vienna). Initially, the group worked on computer hardware projects. Later a compiler for the ALGOL 60 programming language was produced. The group built on ideas of Calvin C. Elgot, Peter Landin, and John McCarthy, to create an operational semantics that could define the whole of IBM's PL/I programming language. The meta-language used for this was dubbed by people outside the laboratory as the Vienna Definition Language (VDL). These descriptions were used for compiler design research into compiler design during 1968–70.

The formal method VDM (Vienna Development Method) was a result of research at the laboratory by Dines Bjørner, Cliff Jones, Peter Lucas, and others.

Peter Lucas (computer scientist). Peter Lucas (13 January 1935 in Vienna, Austria – 2 February 2015 in California, United States) was an Austrian computer scientist and university professor.

Life
Peter Lucas graduated in 1953 and then studied telecommunications at the Vienna University of Technology. He completed his studies in 1959 with a diploma thesis on the topic of programming electronic calculating machines. Then he was a member of Heinz Zemanek's group and was responsible for the system programming of Mailüfterl, the first fully transistorized computer in continental Europe.

In 1961, he moved with the Mailüfterl Group from the Technical University to the IBM company, working at the IBM Laboratory Vienna, where he worked on the formal description of programming languages. Together with Hans Bekić, Kurt Walk, and Heinz Zemanek, he was responsible for the formal definition of the IBM programming language PL/I using the Vienna Definition Language (VDL), an important part of the formal method VDM. In addition, he worked together with Hans Bekić on a compiler for ALGOL 60. During this time, he gave lectures and lectures at the Vienna University of Technology and the Johannes Kepler University Linz, covering theoretical foundations of programming and the formal definition of programming languages.

In 1978, he joined the Thomas J. Watson Research Center at Yorktown Heights, New York, United States, where he worked on experimental compiler projects. In 1979, he moved to IBM in San Jose, California, later the IBM Almaden Research Center. In 1988, he worked in John Backus' group on the definition and implementation of the functional programming language FL.

In October 1993, he was appointed as a full professor in software technology at the Graz University of Technology, retiring to an emeritus position in July 2001. From 1994, he was chairman of Formal Methods Europe (FME) and corresponding member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.

Admiralty Surface Weapons Establishment. The Admiralty Surface Weapons Establishment (ASWE) and later known as the Admiralty Research Establishment (ARE) was a department of the British Admiralty and later Navy Department (Ministry of Defence) responsible for research and development, into the design and testing of devices, equipment, and techniques in-regard to naval communications,  electronic counter-measures, radar missile control and other related fields it was based at Portsdown Hill, Hampshire, England from 1959 to 1984.

History

In 1959 the Admiralty Gunnery Establishment (AGE) and Admiralty Signals and Radar Establishment (ASRE) were merged to form Admiralty Surface Weapons Establishment (ASWE), this was due to advances in missile technologies research. It was responsible for research and development in relation to naval communications, missile control systems by use of radar, and electronic counter-measures. In 1971 as the ASWE was expanding its work it assumed responsibility for navigational compass development, this resulted in the Admiralty Compass Observatory becoming its Navigation Division within this department. In 1984 as part of a further centralisation of R & D work being undertaken by the Ministry of Defence, it was merged with two other departments the Admiralty Underwater Weapons Establishment (AUWE) and Admiralty Marine Technology Establishment (AMTE) to form the Admiralty Research Establishment (ARE).

The AWSE building on Portsdown Hill was demolished 2010-2011.

Airports for antique aircraft. Airports for antique airplanes are aerodromes with facilities appropriate to the aircraft of the early twentieth century, including, for example, turf runways. In many cases they are collocated with aircraft museums.

Aircraft built before the end of World War I had different requirements for the landing field than modern aircraft. Modern runways are built for maximum friction.  Antique aircraft, sensitive to crosswinds and often equipped with skids, benefit from a relatively slippery turf field. Aircraft museums often have turf runways to accommodate the old aircraft.

Examples include the following: 
Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome
Antiquers Aerodrome
Bayport Aerodrome
Old Warden Aerodrome
Pioneer Airport
Fantasy of Flight
Duxford Aerodrome
Antique Airfield

Printing Machine Managers' Trade Society. The Printing Machine Managers' Trade Society (PMMTS) was a trade union representing supervisors of machinery in the printing trade.

The union was founded in 1839 as the London Printing Machine Managers' Trade Society.  Steam-powered printing machines were being gradually introduced to the trade, and its members differentiated themselves from the compositors who held membership of existing societies.  By the 1880s, the London Society of Compositors and the Typographical Association also tried to recruit machine managers, and because of the conflict, the society did not initially join the Printing and Kindred Trades Federation.  Instead, the union removed "London" from its name, and attempted to organise nationally.

The union focused on matters directly relating to the industry, and did not pay benefits to members who were out of work.  To cover this, it set up a related organisation, the "Machine Managers' Benefit Society".

The union grew steadily for many years, membership reaching 1,525 in 1892, and about 4,500 in 1925.  It generally voted against mergers with other unions, rejecting an amalgamation with the Platen Printing Machine Minders' Society or the National Society of Operative Printers and Assistants in 1912, but the London United Society of Plate Printers did join in 1919.  It finally agreed a working arrangement with the London Society of Compositors in 1953, and merged into that union two years later.

OpenBMC. The OpenBMC project is a Linux Foundation collaborative open-source project that produces an open source implementation of the baseboard management controllers (BMC) firmware stack. OpenBMC is a Linux distribution for BMCs meant to work across heterogeneous systems that include enterprise, high-performance computing (HPC), telecommunications, and cloud-scale data centers.

History
In 2014, four Facebook programmers at a Facebook hackathon event created a prototype open-source BMC firmware stack named OpenBMC. In 2015, IBM collaborated with Rackspace on an open-source BMC firmware stack also named OpenBMC. These projects were similar in name and concept only. In March 2018, OpenBMC became a Linux Foundation project and converged on the IBM stack. Founding organizations of the OpenBMC project are Microsoft, Intel, IBM, Google, and Facebook. A technical steering committee was formed to guide the project with representation from the five founding companies. Brad Bishop from IBM was elected chair of the technical steering committee. In April 2019, Arm Holdings joined as the 6th member of the OpenBMC technical steering committee.

Features
OpenBMC uses the Yocto Project as the underlying building and distribution generation framework. The firmware itself is based on U-Boot. OpenBMC uses D-Bus as an inter-process communication (IPC). OpenBMC includes a web application for interacting with the firmware stack. OpenBMC added Redfish support for hardware management.

Richard Norton (pilot). Richard D. Norton (c. 1939 – 1998) was an American pilot, scientist, and explorer. He was the pilot of the first single engine plane to fly around the world via the North and South Poles in 1987.

A graduate of Stanford University, he served in the US Air Force between 1961 and 1965. He was a pilot for TWA for 26 years.  At TWA, he flew the Lockheed L-1011 Tristar. He was married to Lourdes Veras Norton.

He was the Director of the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential from 1982 to 1992.

On January 20, 1987, he started his record setting “Flight of the Arctic Tern” along with co-pilot, West German Calin Rosetti, from Paris’ famed Le Bourget airport, the site of Charles Lindberg’s historic landing after his solo flight across the Atlantic.  After a break due to the freezing of the wings of the aircraft, a Piper Malibu, just off the Arctic Circle, the pilots landed back at Le Bourget on June 15, 2017 during the Paris Air Show and successfully completed the first “round the world” flight in a single engine aircraft, via the poles.

He died of cancer at age 59.
