Remote monitoring and control. Remote monitoring and control (M&C) systems are designed to control large or complex facilities such as factories, power plants, network operations centers, airports, and spacecraft, with some degree of automation.

M&C systems may receive data from sensors, telemetry streams, user inputs, and pre-programmed procedures. The software may send telecommands to actuators, computer systems, or other devices.

M&C systems may perform closed-loop control.

Once limited to SCADA in industrial settings, remote monitoring and control is now applied in numerous fields, including:
 Smart grids
 Positive train control
 Structural health monitoring
 Pipeline sensors
 Patient monitoring
 Desktop/server monitoring

While this field overlaps with machine to machine communications, the two are not completely identical.

High Performance Computing Wales. High Performance Computing Wales (HPC Wales) was a £44million five-year project (2010–2015) to provide Wales with a world class facility in High Performance Computing, accessible to both academic and commercial organisations based in Wales. The project aimed to give Wales a supercomputing capacity and network at a scale not attempted anywhere else in the UK or Europe.  It is being followed by another five-year, £15million programme of investment called Supercomputing Wales.

HPC Wales invested in state-of-the-art computing technology, infrastructure and facilities on a pan-Wales basis, high level skills development and training. It was estimated that the project would result in the creation of over 400 jobs.

The project is financially supported by:
£19m from ERDF and ESF European funds channelled through the Welsh European Funding Office
£10m from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills
£4m from collaborating academic institutions
£5m from the Welsh Assembly Government
£2m private sector and research income

Announced in December 2009 by then Welsh Secretary Peter Hain, the project was formally launched in July 2010 by Deputy First Minister and Minister for the Economy and Transport, Ieuan Wyn Jones.

Two main computer hubs were created in Cardiff University and Swansea University, with connection to partners Aberystwyth, Bangor, Glamorgan, the University of Wales Alliance Universities and Technium business innovation centres around Wales. Professor Ian Cluckie was Chair of HPC Wales's Procurement Committee, and Pro Vice Chancellor for Science and Engineering at Swansea University.

Hudson Utility Coupe. The Hudson Terraplane Utility Coupe is an automobile that was manufactured by Hudson Motor Car Company of Detroit, Michigan, between 1937 and 1942.

Production history
In 1937 (the first year of production), the automobile was known as the Hudson Terraplane Utility Coupe. It was one of 17 different models in the Terraplane line (nine in the "Deluxe"/Series 71 line and eight in the "Super Terraplane"/Series 72).

For the 1939 model year, the Terraplane brand was dropped for both trucks and autos, and the vehicle was called the Hudson Utility Coupe for the rest of its production cycle.

Even though the manufacturing of civilian automobiles was discontinued from 1942 to 1945 (so all production could be dedicated to the war effort), Hudson did not resume making the utility coupe after the war ended.

Not only was this particular coupe model rare, it was also different from a regular coupe because it could be used either as a car or a truck. The Hudson Utility Coupe had a  L-head straight-six engine, rated at 96 horsepower, giving the Hudson Terraplane Utility coupe the most power of its class, for that time. Not only did the utility coupe have power, it also had strength, the complete load capacity being rated for a half ton. The Hudson Utility Coupe had a strong  wheelbase platform.

From 1937 to 1939 the Hudson Utility Coupe used radial safety control suspension.

In 1940, Hudson altered the Utility Coupe’s front suspension system from its original safety control system to an independent front suspension.

Features
Mounted inside the vehicle's trunk was a steel box mounted on sliding rails (similar to the pull-out drawers of toolboxes). The steel box had a chain-supported tailgate. Handles were attached to the end of the box, used to slide the box in and out. When the box was being pulled out, there were two points in which it could be extended, making the loading and unloading of cargo easier. The ability to pull the box out is what made the utility coupe capable of being used like a pickup truck. If there was no need for it in its pickup form, the box could be slid into the trunk of the coupe. Once the trunk was closed the Hudson utility coupe looked like a regular car.

The Hudson Terraplane Utility Coupe was a business car, especially for salesman who needed to transport their samples. The design allowed the salesman to carry their products regardless of weather conditions. If they were transporting a product that was long, the salesmen were able to slide the cargo box out and let the tailgate down. They could also detach the trunk door for the larger products, if necessary.

Robert William Mylne. Robert William Mylne, FRS FRSE FGS FRIBA (14 June 1817 – 2 July 1890) was an English architect, civil engineer and geologist.

Life

Mylne was born in Great Amwell, Hertfordshire, the son of William Chadwell Mylne (1781–1863) and grandson of Robert Mylne (1733–1811), both of whom were chief engineers of the New River Company. His mother was Mary Smith Coxhead (1791–1884).

Robert William himself also practiced as an architect and engineer. In 1836 he worked on designing new docks at Sunderland, and he traveled to Italy and Sicily in the early 1840s. He acted as his father's assistant for twenty years, becoming an authority on water supply. He was later appointed Engineer to the Limerick Water Company, and provided a fresh-water supply for one of the Spithead forts.

He wrote a number of books, primarily on the subject of the geology of London, as well as producing several geological maps of the area. His 1856 "Map of the Geology and Contours of London and its Environs", produced at a scale of 4 miles to 1 inch, was the first comprehensive geological map of London. In 1859 he was one of a party of eminent scientists, including Joseph Prestwich, Sir John Evans, Hugh Falconer, Godwin-Austen and John W. Flower, who investigated the discovery of ancient human remains in the Somme valley, establishing the antiquity of man.

He was an associate of the Institute of British Architects from 1839, and a member of the Geological Society from 1848 and of the Smeatonian Society of Civil Engineers. In 1860, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. His candidature citation read:

In 1884, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. His proposers were George Seton, Lord Kelvin, William Rutherford and Peter Guthrie Tait.

He died at Home Lodge in Great Amwell in 1890. He is buried in the Mylne family vault at St John the Baptist Church in Amwell, designed by his ancestor Robert Mylne.

Family

In 1852 he married Hannah Scott (1826–1885), the daughter of George Scott.

Their eldest son was Robert Scott Mylne FRSE.

J. M. Martinac Shipbuilding Corporation. The J. M. Martinac Shipbuilding Corporation was founded in 1924 by Joseph M. Martinac on the Thea Foss Waterway in Tacoma, Washington. It specialized in the construction of tugs, trawlers, purse seiners, ferries, naval patrol craft and power yachts up to  long.

History

20th century
Before 1942, the production was centered on the manufacture of fishing vessels constructed of wood. In 1942, because of the need for wooden-hulled minesweepers for the war effort, the U.S. Navy contracted for 12 YMS-type sweepers which were delivered between July 1942 and November 1943. Delivery of 4 YT-type tugs was accomplished during 1944. An additional 4 minesweepers of the YMS-type were delivered to the Navy in 1945.

Post war production was devoted to the manufacture of yachts, passenger and cargo ships until 1954 when the Navy needed more minesweepers. A total of 9 MSO-type minesweepers were produced from May 1954 to April 1956. In 1963 production was started on 5 patrol boats for the South Vietnamese Navy of the PGM-type. Most production since 1964 has concentrated on fishing vessels and tugs. The largest contract awarded to Martinac was for the manufacture of 26 patrol boats for the U.S. Coast Guard of the WPB-type. Production started in early 1966 and was completed by August 1967.

21st century
J.M. Martinac Shipbuilding was sold in a foreclosure auction on Friday, July 18, 2014.

Facilities
The company was located on a  site with 3 fully enclosed construction ways accommodating vessels up to  long and with a beam of . The outfitting dock accommodated a vessel up to  long and  deep.

DICE framework. The DICE framework, or Duration, Integrity, Commitment, and Effort framework is a tool for evaluating projects, predicting project outcomes, and allocating resources strategically to maximize delivery of a program or portfolio of initiatives, aiming for consistency in evaluating projects with subjective inputs. The framework produces the DICE score, an indicator of the likely success of a project based on various measures. DICE was originally developed by Perry Keenan, Kathleen Conlon, and Alan Jackson, all current or former partners at the Boston Consulting Group. It was first published in the Harvard Business Review in 2005. The DICE framework was awarded a patent in 2014. Although originally developed at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), this framework has become widely adopted and is used by companies and professionals alike.

DICE acronym 
The acronym DICE stands for:

Duration (D):  either the total duration of short projects, or the time between two milestones on longer projects
Team performance integrity (I) the project team's ability to execute successfully, with specific emphasis on the ability of the project leader
Commitment (C) levels of support, composed of two factors:
C1 visible backing from the sponsor and senior executives for the change
C2 support from those who are impacted by the change
Effort (E) how much effort will it require to implement (above and beyond business as usual)

Calculation 
Based on the statistical analysis from the outcome of change projects, success can be determined by assessing four factors (duration, team performance integrity, commitment, and effort). A DICE score between 7 and 14 is in the "Win" Zone (very likely to succeed), while a DICE score between 14 and 17 falls in the "Worry" Zone (hard to predict success), and a DICE score higher than 17 falls in the "Woe" Zone (indicating high unpredictability or likely to not succeed). The DICE score is calculated according to the following formula:
 D + (2 x I) + (2 x C1) + C2 + E
Duration
< 2 months = 1
2-4 months = 2
4-8 months = 3
> 8 months = 4

Team performance integrity
Very good = 1
Good = 2
Average = 3
Poor = 4

Commitment (senior management)
Clearly and strongly communicate the need = 1
Seem to want success = 2
Neutral = 3
Reluctant = 4

Commitment (local)
Eager = 1
Willing = 2
Reluctant = 3
Strongly Reluctant = 4

Effort
< 10% additional = 1 
10-20% additional = 2
20-40% additional = 3
> 40 % additional = 4

Integrated Applications Promotion. ARTES 20 Integrated Applications Promotion (IAP) was a European Space Agency programme that supported the development of services utilizing space assets, such as satellite navigation, communication or earth observation, with terrestrial systems. Many successful projects and studies created user-driven applications around solving particular problems or opportunities instead of creating technological solutions.

Integrated Applications Promotion Programme was approved on ESA ministerial conference in November 2008 as a new branch of the Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems programme. The ambassadors platform was initiated in May 2010 aiming to further expand awareness of the programme in Eastern and Central Europe. Even after its restructuring, ESA IAP supported over 2,000 projects to deliver across over 100 socio-economic goals and SDG indicator.

Activities 
IAP programme was divided between three types of activities:

Open Competitions 
Standard procedure of placing contracts with ESA focused on particular ESA's needs or collaborating institutions while working with a fixed budget and time schedule. Projects cover Feasibility Studies and Demonstrations.

Calls for Proposals 
Projects working with no fixed budget or closing date co-funded by ESA up to 50% in case of commercial applications and up to 100% in case of research institutions and universities. Calls of Proposals are divided into 3 major categories.
 Feasibility Studies for identification, analyzation and a definition of sustainable applications and services by utilization of a multiple space data.
 Fast Track Feasibility Studies are focusing on a few selected critical elements of a feasibility studies while being limited in funding and duration.
 Demonstration Projects for pre-operational services with commercial and environmental stainability perspective and access to private funding.

Awareness Activities 
Special awards on selected topics and a calls for ideas including these opetoor everyone interested, with no additional requirements.

Plane wave tube. An acoustic duct or plane wave tube is a test facility used in acoustics. Anechoic chambers are typically subject to a low frequency limit, governed by the length of the sound absorbing wedges employed to prevent reflections within the chamber. Test and measurement microphone calibration services are often required to be undertaken at frequencies where anechoic chambers cannot be used effectively. In this case, a plane wave acoustic duct with anechoic termination provides a practical alternative.

Such a facility consists of a long duct, with a special low-frequency sound source (subwoofer) at one end and very large acoustically absorbent wedges at the other end. The duct cross section dimensions are made sufficiently small compared to the wavelength at the frequencies of interest that sound can be assumed to propagate down the duct as a plane wave with no reflections from the sides. Acoustic ducts are most commonly used by National Measurement Institutes that specialise in acoustical measurement (such as the National Physical Laboratory (United Kingdom)), who use them for measurement microphone calibration at low frequencies.
