Milner Award. The Royal Society Milner Award, formally the Royal Society Milner Award and Lecture, is awarded annually by the Royal Society, a London-based learned society, for "outstanding achievement in computer science by a European researcher". The award is supported by Microsoft Research and is named in honour of Robin Milner, a prolific pioneer in computer science who, among other contributions, designed LCF and the programming language ML.

Recipients should be active researchers in computer science who are either European or have resided in Europe for at least 12 months prior to their nomination. Winners receive a bronze medal and a personal prize of £5,000 and are invited to deliver a public lecture on their research at the Society. The Council of the Royal Society chooses recipients on the recommendation of the Milner Award Committee. The committee is made up of Fellows of the Royal Society, Members of the Académie des sciences (France), and Members of Leopoldina (Germany).

Preceding the Milner Award was the Royal Society and Académie des sciences Microsoft Award, which rewarded scientists in Europe for advancements in science using computational methods. It lasted from 2006 to 2009 until it was replaced by the current award. The ACM SIGPLAN Robin Milner Young Researcher Award is a similar award rewarded for "outstanding contributions by young investigators in the area of programming languages".

Recipients
The inaugural winner Gordon Plotkin received his prize in 2012 but delivered his public lecture in 2013, the same year as Serge Abiteboul. In 2018, Marta Kwiatkowska became the first female recipient of the award. Although the 2019 recipient Eugene Myers is American, he moved to Dresden, Germany, in 2012 to become a director of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, thus meeting the criteria for a researcher who is European or has lived in Europe for at least 12 months. Due to infection control measures taken because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 lecture was held as a Zoom webinar.

Fish-class torpedo recovery vessel. The Fish class was a ship class of three torpedo recovery vessels previously operated by Defence Maritime Services (DMS).

Design and construction
The class was ordered in 1969 as replacements for World War II-era torpedo recovery vessels.

The vessels each had a full load displacement of , a length of , a beam of , and a draught of . Propulsion machinery consisted of three GM V8 diesels, which supplied  to the three propeller shafts. Top speed was , and the vessels had an endurance of 63 hours at . Each Fish-class vessel could recover up to eight torpedoes via a watertight stern gate. They were unarmed, and their sensor suite was limited to an I-band navigational radar. Nine personnel made up the crew.

All three vessels were built at Williamstown Dockyard for the Royal Australian Navy between January 1970 and April 1971.

Operational history
Originally identified only by the numbers 253–255, the vessels were named in 1983 and renumbered 801–803.

On entering service, TRV 253 was assigned to the target range at Jervis Bay, while the other two vessels were attached to  in Sydney. In addition to torpedo recovery, the boats were used as dive tenders and as training vessels for the Royal Australian Naval Reserve.

In 1988, the three vessels were sold to DMS. As part of the company's role in providing maritime support for the RAN, the vessels were assigned to various bases: Tuna to nearby , Trevally remaining at Waterhen, while Tailor sailed to  in Western Australia.

As of 2012, only Tailor remained in service.

As of 2018, Tailor was decommissioned and put up for sale to the public effectively ending the service of this class

Flashspun fabric. Flashspun fabric is a nonwoven fabric formed from fine fibrillation of a film by the rapid evaporation of solvent and subsequent bonding during extrusion.

A pressurised solution of, for example, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene in a solvent such as fluoroform is heated, pressurised and pumped through a hole into a chamber. When the solution is allowed to expand rapidly through the hole the solvent evaporates to leave a highly oriented non-woven network of filaments.

Grahame-White Type VII. The Graham-White Type VII "Popular" was an early British aircraft designed  by J. D. North and built by the Grahame-White Aviation company, with the intention of producing a low-cost aircraft to popularize aviation. It was initially produced with a 35 hp Anzani 3-cylinder Y configuration engine and offered for sale at a price of less than £400.  Despite its low price the aircraft included structural refinements such as hollow-section interplane struts. It was first flown in 1913.

Design and development
The aircraft was a pusher biplane with a square section nacelle mounted between the upper and lower wings, which  were of two-spar construction, the spars being ash I-sections. To maintain the leading edge section there were half-ribs between each rib, these extending from the leading edge to the main spar. A single horizontal tailplane with a split elevator and a rudder divided into two part, half above and half below the tailplane, were carried on ash booms behind the wing, the booms being connected by hollow wooden vertical struts and tubular steel horizontal members. The booms were spindled to an I-section except at the points of attachment of the cross-members.   
The upper wing was double the span of the lower and had wide-span ailerons occupying the whole trailing edge outboard of the tail booms. The wings were connected by a single pair of struts on either side, the outer section of the upper wing being braced by wires leading to inverted-V kingposts.  The wide-track undercarriage consisted of a pair of long laminated wood skids each bearing  pair of wheels on a short axle. No tailskid was fitted.

The Type VII was built in both single and two seat versions and some were fitted with the  Gnome Omega engine, which would have increased the price considerably as well as improving performance, since this engine cost around £500.

Operational history
In March 1913, the British War Office, in an attempt to boost the numerical strength of the Royal Flying Corps announced the purchase of seven aircraft from the Grahame-White company, including two Type VII Populars and one two-seat VIIc Popular Passenger Biplane (which despite the name was unrelated to the single-seat Type VII). Although the purchase of two of the single-seat type VIIs was announced, it appears that only one was taken on charge. While allocated the serial number 283, the aircraft saw little if any use by the RFC.

CANT Z.515. The CANT Z.515 was a twin engine monoplane floatplane designed and built for maritime reconnaissance in Italy at the start of  World War II.  It did not go into service.

Design and development
The Z.515 (Z denoting a Zappata design) was the result of a requirement for a reconnaissance seaplane with light bombing capability.  It was smaller and lighter than the established CANT Z.506 reconnaissance bomber, which was a three engine aircraft.

The Z.515 was a cantilever low wing monoplane with straight tapered wings of noticeable dihedral and rounded tips.  There were flaps inboard of the ailerons. Twin 560 kW (750 hp) V-12 Isotta-Fraschini Delta engines were mounted well forward of the leading edge with their thrust line in the wing plane.  The fairings behind engine mountings on the wing underside extended aft to near the trailing edge; the rear engine mounting also supported the forward attachment points for the rearward sloping, N-form struts to the two long, single stepped floats.  The floats were laterally braced by inverted-V struts to the bottom of the fuselage.  The Z.515's tailplane was mounted on top of the fuselage with greater dihedral than the wing and carrying endplate fins.  The horizontal surfaces were straight tapered and the elevators, like the rudders had trim tabs.  The vertical surfaces were almost elliptical, split roughly equally between fin and unbalanced rudder.

The lower nose of the Z.515 was completely glazed, with the long cockpit largely forward of the wing leading edge.  There was a low dorsal machine gun turret at mid-chord and three further lower calibre machine guns.  Up to 600 kg (1,320 lb) of bombs could be carried.

The CANT Z.515 first flew in 1939 but was not developed further.  Some sources suggest a first flight date of 8 or 9 July 1940. The Regia Aeronautica approved the production of the Z.515 in 1941 with 64 aircraft ordered from CANT, and 50 from Aeronautica Sicula, a company in Palermo. Only ten were completed.

Goodwin Buckshot. The Goodwin Buckshot is an American powered parachute that was designed and produced by FL Goodwin of Phoenix, Arizona and introduced in 1998.

The aircraft was distributed by Paraborne Aviation of Kissimmee, Florida. The Buckshot is out of production.

Design and development
The aircraft was designed as a US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles two-seat trainer. It features a parachute-style high-wing, two seats in side-by-side configuration, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration. The standard engines supplied were the  2si 460F-45 and the  Zenoah G-50 engine, although any light two-cylinder, two-stroke engine can be used.

The aircraft is built from bolted-together anodized aluminum tubing to save weight. Inflight steering is accomplished via foot pedals that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw. On the ground the aircraft has tiller-controlled nosewheel steering. The main landing gear does not incorporate suspension and the aircraft relies on large tundra tires to provide this.
