François Cosserat. François Cosserat (26 October 1852 – 22 March 1914) was a French engineer and mathematician known by his theories about deformable bodies written with his brother Eugène.

Life and work 
François Cosserat was the eldest of the three sons of François-Constant Cosserat, a textile manufacturer in Amiens. The three sons achieved to study in one of the grandes écoles of Paris. François studied at the École Polytechnique from 1870 to 1872 and then in the École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées until 1875. François Cosserat followed a typical career as civil engineer in the French East Railroad Company constructing and designing bridges, tunnels, etc. In 1895 he became chief engineer. Besides his engineer career he worked with his junior brother, Eugène, in mechanics and elasticity, publishing papers and a book about it.

In 1913 he was elected president of the Société mathématique de France.

His most important work is his book, a joint work with his brother, Théorie des corps déformables (Theory of deformable bodies) (1909) in which laid the foundations of the mechanics of the generalized continua. His approach can be particularly useful in modeling nonlinear elastic inhomogeneous deformations and inelastic deformations. Other remarkable joint works are: Théorie de l'élasticité (1896), Note sur la cinématique d'un milieu continu (1897), Note sur la dynamique du point et du corps invariable (1906) and Note sur la théorie de l'action euclidienne (1909).

Cumulative quantities (logistics). Cumulative quantities are a concept in logistics that involves adding up required materials quantities over a defined time-window that can be drawn as a 'cumulative curve'. This concept is applied in serial production and mainly used in the automotive industry to plan, control and monitor production and delivery. The concept is sometimes called 'Cumulative Production Figures Principle' (CPGP).

Closed-loop-cycle 
The Concept of Cumulative Quantities (CCQ) uses the feedback mechanism of a closed loop, which can be found in industrial, engineering and electronic systems. The target requirements are summarized for each time-interval and compared with the actual values for closed-loop control. Positive cumulative deviation for a certain time-interval requires no further order, while negative deviations require a new order. To "calm" production and material flow upper and lower tolerance boundaries are defined and only if these boundaries are violated is a renewed order.

To check the entire production and material flow 'reporting limits' can be defined at a chosen counting point and if a limit is exceeded a concerned 'alert' is issued. The logistics staff has to explain the reason for the 'alert'. If the reason is correct and traceable no further action is needed. If mistakes are present in the database, data processing or in data-acquisition appropriate counter-measures are needed. Examples for mistakes or failures  wrong primary demand or bad forecasting, mistakes in Bill of Material or master data, old Master Production Schedule, inaccurate or delayed data acquisition, calculation mistakes, mounting of incorrect parts at assembly line.

Counting points  
Target-actual-control-loop uses exactly defined counting points that demarcate the next-following intervals along the supply chain. The cumulative differences of next-following counting points show the quantities of material items which traverse the Interval and therefore offer transparency of the inventory of an item along the entire supply chain.

Supply chain  
Cumulative quantities are a part of official EDI-formats (e.g. EDIFACT - DELFOR) that are widely used by OEMs and their suppliers. Normally the data acquisition at 'goods receipt' are used for communication between consignee and goods dispatcher.

IBM 4765. The IBM 4765 PCIe Cryptographic Coprocessor is a hardware security module (HSM) that includes a secure cryptoprocessor implemented on a high-security, tamper resistant, programmable PCIe board. Specialized cryptographic electronics, microprocessor, memory, and random number generator housed within a tamper-responding environment provide a highly secure subsystem in which data processing and cryptography can be performed.

The IBM 4765 is validated to FIPS PUB 140-2 Level 4, the highest level of certification achievable for commercial cryptographic devices. The IBM 4765 data sheet describes the coprocessor in detail.

IBM supplies two cryptographic-system implementations:
 The PKCS#11 implementation creates a high-security solution for application programs developed for this industry-standard API.
 The IBM Common Cryptographic Architecture (CCA) implementation provides many functions of special interest in the finance industry, extensive support for distributed key management, and a base on which custom processing and cryptographic functions can be added.
Toolkits for custom application development are also available.

Applications may include financial PIN transactions, bank-to-clearing-house transactions, EMV transactions for integrated circuit (chip) based credit cards, and general-purpose cryptographic applications using symmetric key algorithms, hashing algorithms, and public key algorithms.

The operational keys (symmetric or RSA private) are generated in the coprocessor and are then saved either in a keystore file or in application memory, encrypted under the master key of that coprocessor. Any coprocessor with an identical master key can use those keys.

Supported systems 
IBM supports the 4765 on IBM Z, IBM POWER Systems, and IBM-approved x86 servers (Linux or Microsoft Windows). 
 IBM Z: Crypto Express4S (CEX4S) / Crypto Express3C (CEX3C) - feature code 0865
 IBM POWER systems: feature codes EJ27, EJ28, and EJ29 
 x86: Machine type-model 4765-001

History 
As of May 2011, the IBM 4765 superseded the IBM 4764 that was discontinued.

The IBM 4765 has been discontinued on all platforms. The successor to the 4765, the IBM 4767, was introduced on each of the IBM server platforms:
 IBM Z, where it is called the Crypto Express5S and is available as feature code 0890
 IBM POWER systems, where it is available as feature codes EJ32 / EJ33
 x86 servers, where it is called the 4767-002

J. Stone & Co. J. Stone & Co was a British marine and railway engineering company based in Deptford (and later Charlton) in south east London, particularly noted for the manufacture of nails and rivets, Stone-Lloyd watertight ships' doors, brass ships' propellers, iron manhole covers, pumps, and railway carriage electric lighting and air conditioning systems. Stone Foundries and Stone Fasteners continue to operate in Charlton.

History
Josiah Stone established an engineering workshop in 1831, producing cast copper nails for the shipbuilding industry in nearby Greenwich. In 1842, with George Preston and John Prestige, he co-founded J. Stone & Co and relocated to premises in railway arches where he made hand pumps and manual firefighting engines. With the company's product range expanded to include rivets and other engineering items, the firm established a foundry in Deptford's Arklow Road in 1881, becoming a specialist in casting large copper propellers.

The company's non-ferrous foundry moved to Charlton in 1917, and became J. Stone and Co (Charlton) Ltd in 1951. It produced 22,000 propellers for the Royal Navy during World War II (its products being fitted to battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers and numerous smaller vessels), plus propellers and water-tight doors for RMS Queen Mary, RMS Queen Elizabeth and Royal Yacht Britannia. In 1963 Stone's marine propeller business merged with Manganese Bronze (originally founded by Perceval M. Parsons in Deptford in 1876, incorporated as the Manganese Bronze and Brass Co in 1882, before relocating to Millwall and then Birkenhead in 1941) and manufacture moved to Birkenhead.

Stone Foundries still operates at Charlton in a plant established in 1939 to produce aluminium and magnesium light alloy castings mainly for the aircraft industry, having produced specialised alloy parts and aircraft propellers for the Vickers Viscount and de Havilland Comet. In 1982, Stone Foundries was acquired by Langham Industries.

In 1950 the Deptford works made rail and road transport products, nails, rivets and washers. In 1959 the firm became Stone Platt Industries. The Deptford factory closed in 1969, but production of nails and rivets continues at Langham Industries' Charlton-based Stone Fasteners.

Sporting legacy
Workers from Stone's Deptford Arklow Road foundry established a rowing club in 1923. Membership of the Stones Rowing Club was restricted to company employees, but after the company refused a grant to purchase new equipment, the club broke away from the works and set up independently, with headquarters in the nearby Lord Clyde public house (western end of Clyde Street). The club was then known as the Clyde Rowing Club before moving in the mid 1930s to another public house, The Globe on Royal Hill in Greenwich (demolished c. 1938), from which the club took its current name, Globe Rowing Club.

Counting point. In logistics, a counting point (CP; also known as a status point, data acquisition point, check point, or control point) is a certain spot designated for planning, controlling, and monitoring material flow items (e.g. single parts, assembly groups, final products, bins, racks, containers, and freight carriers).

Installation 
If the production and material flow gets more and more complex then more counting points must be installed in the process of transport, shipping, and manufacturing. Especially check points for quality control and quality assurance can be used outstandingly as counting points but also data acquisition points in material handling processes. For better planning and monitoring of material flow items it is helpful to order all counting points in such a way that the requirements of an ideal Boolean Interval (mathematics) Algebra can be fulfilled. Boolean intervals are half-opened and a counting point lays always inside at the beginning and the ending lays outside and is the entry-point of the next-following interval. Such an interval can represent any kind of stretch in production and material flow e.g. an assembly line, a storage or warehouse, a transport route etc. Alternative production and transportation stretches are mapped as parallel intervals, which are logical equivalent but have their own different data acquisition points. If a flow item passes a certain CP it has left the preceding interval and stays in the concerned interval at the same time. By this it can be assured that a flow object can stay only in one interval at a certain moment which is also true and evident for parallel intervals. This kind of mapping material flow structure is necessary for a consistent calculation of the lead-time and complete cycle time for flow items which is extremely important not only for material flow planning but also for production planning and manufacturing operations management in general.

Usage 
Counting points are used in different logistic areas like transportation, material handling, goods receipt, and goods issue at the border of a plant, because this is often transfer of ownership. Other well-known counting points are receiving and issuing material items at the border of a storage or warehouse. Counting points play an important rule also in manufacturing and production scheduling and different concepts of material requirements planning (e.g. for the concept of cumulative quantities and the gross-net-method. Counting points also appear in the automotive industry where the production flow of a car is controlled, scheduled, and monitored continuously at exactly-defined check points for different manufacturing departments and shops and where the data is used for scheduling and optimization.

Albree Pigeon-Fraser. The Albree Pigeon-Fraser was the first pursuit aircraft project for the United States Government.

Development 
George Albree was awarded the first US pursuit aircraft contract in 1917.  The aircraft was designed with a flat bottom airfoil and the aft fuselage was hinged to act like an elevator.

Operational history 
The first aircraft flew in December 1917, however it crashed on its first flight, killing the pilot. The second aircraft never flew and was destroyed during structural testing. The third aircraft was not completed before the program was cancelled for being "too old-fashioned, unreliable, and slow".

Surviving aircraft 
The incomplete third aircraft was put into storage and in 1961 was acquired by the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome where it is currently on display.

How to Become Happy. How to Become Happy () is a 1986 Soviet comedy-science fiction film directed by Yuri Chulyukin.

Plot
In 1980, a modest physics teacher in the small town of Lesogorsk invents a miraculous device that can identify a child's potential talents and aptitude for various professions. He travels to Moscow to share his invention, but those he approaches react skeptically. Gosha, a photojournalist for a Moscow newspaper, initially seizes on the opportunity for a sensational story. However, when the inventor assesses Gosha’s own talents and reveals he is destined to be a clown rather than the great writer he dreams of becoming, Gosha reacts negatively and rejects the inventor.

Ten years later, a surprising wave of talented young people from Lesogorsk rises to fame across the country and even internationally. These talented individuals—artists, athletes, scientists, and craftsmen—all seem to share the same hometown. Now the head of his newspaper's department, yet unsuccessful in his career, Gosha once again pursues this story. His investigation leads him back to the scientist from Lesogorsk. Gosha learns that the inventor’s analysis of his wife had also been accurate; she discovered her talent for sculpture and found success, which the inventor had foreseen during a secret scan while she slept.

Upon discovering that the scan of his own son's talents was accidentally destroyed by the boy himself, Gosha urgently searches for the inventor, only to find that he has passed away, dismantling his invention before his death. At a ceremony honoring the scientist in Lesogorsk, Gosha, inspired by the memory of the inventor, decides to change his life, even if it means doing so at an older age.
