Jean Bacon. Jean Bacon (born 1942) is a British emeritus professor of distributed systems at the Computer Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, where she co-headed the Opera Research Group from its founding in the 1990s. Previously, she taught at Hatfield Technical College where, in the 1970s, she was involved in the design of one of the earliest computer science degree programs offered in the United Kingdom. Bacon retired from her faculty position at Cambridge in 2010 but has continued to work on Opera projects related to distributed systems and security in cloud computing.

Early life and career
Bacon was born in Sheffield in 1942 in a working-class family. She attended Penistone Grammar School and went on to receive her B.S. in mathematics from the University of London. Her first introduction to computing came from a summer job in the early 1960s, after which she worked in computer-related jobs at the National Physical Laboratory and the GEC Hirst Research Centre. In 1968 she transitioned to teaching in Higher National Certificate and Higher National Diploma programs while working on her M.Sc. on a part-time basis. She moved in 1973 to Hatfield – now the University of Hertfordshire – where she was involved in designing an early example of a degree program in computer science. After the birth of her son in 1976, Bacon continued to teach while working on her Ph.D. at Hatfield part-time, studying kernel design and distributed systems.

Research career
In 1985 Bacon moved to a faculty position in the Computer Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, where her work focused on the design of distributed systems and middleware. She was the first woman to join the Computer Laboratory. There she was a co-leader of the Opera Research Group since its founding in the 1990s. She has also published several textbooks on concurrent and distributed systems.

Bacon is a Fellow of the IEEE and of the British Computer Society. She was the founding editor in chief of the IEEE publication now known as IEEE Distributed Systems Online and served two terms on the IEEE Board of Governors from 2002–04 and 2005–07. In 2013, she was awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of the University by Open University.

Personal life
Bacon has one son, born in 1976. She is also an artist and has exhibited paintings.

Abstract graphical data type. An abstract graphical data type (AGDT) is an extension of an abstract data type for computer graphics. AGDTs provide the advantages of the ADTs with facilities to build graphical objects in a structured way. Formally, an AGDT may be defined as a "class of graphical objects whose logical behavior is defined by a set of graphical characteristics and a set of graphical operations".

AGDTs were introduced in 1979 by Nadia Magnenat Thalmann and Daniel Thalmann.

The most important tool in this graphical extension is the 3-D graphical type—the figure type. The syntax is described in Figure 2. The word "figure" is a keyword. The formal parameter section, the declaration, and the body are similar to the corresponding elements in a procedure.

To define a figure type, one must
 find the characteristics of the figure, which become the parameters;
 find the algorithm that allows the user to build the figure with the help of the parameters.

To build the figures, typical graphical statements should be used like: moveabs, moverel, lineabs, and linerel to draw vectors, and include to define an existing figure as part of a new one.

For example, a pyramid with four vertices can be defined as
type PYRAMID = figure (A, B, C, D: VECTOR);
begin
moveabs A; lineabs B, C, A, D, C;
moveabs B; lineabs D
end;

A tree can be defined by 3-D graphical types as
type TREE = figure (var BRANCHES: TEXT; NBRANCHES: INTEGER;
POSITION: VECTOR; HEIGHT, LENGTH:REAL);
where BRANCHES is a file of kinds of branches, NBRANCHES is the number of branches, POSITION is the position of the trunk, HEIGHT is the height of the trunk, and LENGTH is the
length of the branches.

A forest of trees can be defined as
var FOREST: array [1..NBTREES] of TREE

Abstract graphical types have been implemented as an extension of the PASCAL programming language called MIRA-3D.

Wilma (software). Wilma is a Service virtualization software tool that computer programmers and testers use for developing and testing other software. It sits between software components, software services, microservices, as a transparent proxy, and captures the communication traffic between the software components. Based on its actual configuration, evaluates the captured messages and decides between proxying the request or providing response by itself, as a service stub. Therefore, it is a combined Transparent Proxy and Service Stub. It is written in Java, and Open Sourced under the license GPL.

Situations when Wilma helps 

 In case there is component that communicates to other components (SOA environment or by simply using 3rd party services/microservices) but need to be tested without the availability of other components, Wilma can act as stub. The environment can be - among others - a local development environment, a CI test environment, or an integration test environment
 In similar case, if some of the components are available but some not, Wilma can stub the missing ones, meanwhile proxying the request to the available components
 If there is a new feature in a 3rd party component/service, that will be developed later, and not yet available, and if the interface is defined, Wilma can emulate the new feature of the 3rd party component/service, and the feature in the owned component can be developed without waiting for the implementation of the feature in the 3rd party component/service
 It is possible to emulate special behavior of 3rd party components/services like: timeouts, slow or bad answers, special - error-nous - answers and error codes - without doing special test environment setup changes, and even if forcing the 3rd party component/service to produce such special answers would be hard/impossible
 It is possible to substitute both the request and the response messages real-time, partially and/or completely. 
 Also - as it can log the messages - it helps testers/developers in troubleshooting, since the logged messages can be analysed - also such recorded messages can be used later as base of stub responses

Main capabilities 

 Used for HTTP and HTTPS communication channels, including 2-way SSL connections.
 Any message types and contents can be used: HTML, XML, SOAP, JSON, REST, etc.
 Messages can be altered on-the-fly
 Highly configurable, on-the-fly, both via its UI and API (both Java and .NET API is available)
 Suitable for both automated and manual tests
 By using the provided interfaces, product/project specific expansions (special message response creators and response content formatter for the stub) can easily be added to the tool
 Expandable via plug-ins
 Docker images are available

Skymaster Powered Parachutes. Skymaster Powered Parachutes was an American aircraft manufacturer based in Hartland, Wisconsin. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of powered parachutes in the form of kits for amateur construction under the US Experimental - Amateur-built aircraft rules and the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category.

The company roots trace to 1998 when development of the new powered parachute design was commenced. Development work continued until 2001 when the design was finalized and the company was founded to market the new design, designated as the Skymaster Excel. The company seems to have gone out of business in 2008.

The Excel went on to win many awards, including 2001 Sun 'n Fun Grand Champion, 2001 AirVenture Oshkosh Flex-wing Champion, 2002 AirVenture Oshkosh Flex-wing Champion, 2003 AirVenture Oshkosh Flex-wing Champion, 2003 Sun 'n Fun Innovations and 2004 Sun 'n Fun Best Trike. In August 2015 ten examples of the Excel were registered in the United States with the Federal Aviation Administration.

From 2004 until the time of its dissolution the company had been working on a single seat powered parachute design for operation under the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules. Development included a version that would employ hand controls only for paraplegic pilots, but the aircraft does not seem to have entered production or received a formal designation.

Skymaster Single Seater. The Skymaster Single Seater is an American powered parachute that was under development by Skymaster Powered Parachutes of Hartland, Wisconsin. The aircraft was intended to be supplied as a kit for amateur construction.

The aircraft was developed from the larger two seat Skymaster Excel and introduced in about 2004,. Development ended when the company went out of business in late 2008. It appears that only one prototype was ever constructed and it is not clear if it ever flew.

Design and development
The aircraft was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules, including the category's maximum empty weight of . It features a  Skybolt semi-elliptical or  Quantum Advantage rectangular parachute-style wing, single-seat accommodation, tricycle landing gear and a single  single carburetor Rotax 503 engine in pusher configuration. Both the  Rotax 582 and the  dual carburetor Rotax 503 engines were also intended to be offered for the production model.

The aircraft carriage is built from bolted aluminium tubing. In flight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw. On the ground the aircraft has lever-controlled nosewheel steering. The main landing gear incorporates spring and rod suspension.

The prototype was configured with hand-only controls to allow it to be flown by paraplegic wheelchair aviators. Company data indicates that this option was intended to be offered at no charge.

Stepless cockpit. In aircraft design, a stepless cockpit means that the nose of the aircraft has no separate "windscreen" panels directly in front of the pilot's or co-pilot's seating positions, and generally has no "breaks" in the nose contour – curved or otherwise – from their absence. In the conventional design, the pilot's cabin is a different part of the aircraft than the nose. The stepless design is believed to help make the plane more aerodynamic thus aiding speed and fuel efficiency. The stepless design did, however, present serious challenges to the inclusion of a nose-mount turreted gun position, in eras where manned or remotely-aimed gun turrets were still important for a bomber's defensive needs.

Project Sunroof. Project Sunroof is a solar power initiative started by Google engineer Carl Elkin. The initiative's stated purpose is "mapping the planet's solar potential, one roof at a time."

Method

Project Sunroof primarily works to encourage the private adoption of solar energy by providing a set of tools to facilitate the purchase and installation of solar panels. Using high-resolution 3D imagery data from Google Maps to calculate shadows from nearby structures and trees and taking into account historical weather and temperature patterns, the Project Sunroof website calculates how much money a user can expect to save yearly by making use of solar power. In addition, the Project Sunroof website also provides a list of local solar power retailers capable of installing solar panels in that area.

History

Project Sunroof was created by Google engineer Carl Elkin as a 20% time project. While initially launching only in the cities of Boston, San Francisco, and Fresno, the project now displays solar potential for 43 million homes in the US. Google has previously invested in projects with solar energy provider, SolarCity.

While the solar insights provided by Project Sunroof were initially used to support individual rooftop solar insights, additional uses for the data have been developed by Google. 

On the Project Sunroof website, Google launched the 'Data Explorer' to allow users to view aggregated solar insights, such as the total number of buildings viable for rooftop solar, or the aggregated solar potential (expressed in megawatts) for entire communities or cities. 

In September 2018, Google launched the Environmental Insights Explorer platform. This tool was designed to make it easier for cities to measure their carbon footprint and take action in support of their climate goals. The tool provides estimates for a city's annual carbon emissions using detailed geospatial data derived from Google Maps. It provides an estimate of emissions from the sectors of Transportation and Buildings, and using Project Sunroof data, can also estimate the aggregated solar potential of an entire city to demonstrate the potential to offset emissions using solar energy.
