SLATES. SLATES (Search, Links, Authorship, Tags, Extensions, Signalling) is an initialism that describes the business impacting capabilities, derived from the effective use of Web 2.0 technologies in and across enterprises.

Origin of the term
This acronym refers to the key elements in the phenomena often referred to as Enterprise 2.0, which was defined by Professor Andrew McAfee as “the use of emergent social software platforms within companies, or between companies and their partners or customers”

Components
Search is traditionally defined as "A web search query is a query that a user enters into web search engine to satisfy their information needs. Web search queries are distinctive in that they are unstructured and often ambiguous; they vary greatly from standard query languages which are governed by strict syntax rules."
The term in the context of SLATES refers to effective use of such search queries in and across enterprise boundaries, for example being able to enhance the "discoverability of information which drives re-use, leverage and ROI".

Links are the use of links or uniform resource identifiers to forge deep interconnections between the information content across collaborating enterprises.

Authorship is the ability of all individuals within and across enterprises to easily publish content accessible across collaborating enterprises.

Tags is the use of tags to enable the rapid and humanistic organisation of data across collaborating enterprises.

Extensions are the mining of previously gathered data relating to a users activities or transactions which allows users to be guided to initiate other valuable activities or transactions. Exemplified by the phrase "other customers who purchased this book also purchased these books"

Signalling involves the sending of alerts to users of the changing state of an element of interest i.e. using RSS. Exemplified by the Online Status of other users in instant messaging clients

AJ10. The AJ10 is a hypergolic rocket engine manufactured by Aerojet Rocketdyne (previously Aerojet). It has been used to propel the upper stages of several launch vehicles, including the Delta II and Titan III. Variants were and are used as the service propulsion engine for the Apollo command and service module, in the Space Shuttle Orbital Maneuvering System, and on the European Service Module – part of NASA's Orion spacecraft.

Variants

It was first used in the Delta-A/Able second stage of the Vanguard rocket, in the AJ10-37 configuration. It was initially fueled by nitric acid and UDMH.  An AJ10 engine was first fired in flight during the third Vanguard launch, on 17 March 1958, which successfully placed the Vanguard 1 satellite into orbit.

The AJ10-101 engine was used on an uprated version of the Able stage, used on Atlas-Able and Thor-Able rockets. The first AJ10-101 flight, with a Thor-Able, occurred on 23 April 1958; however, the Thor failed before the upper Able stage fired. The second flight, which saw the first in flight firing of an AJ10-101 engine, occurred on 10 July 1958.

The AJ10-138 engine was originally developed for Vanguard and Able, and was flown from 1964 to 1980.
Two of these engines were used in the Titan III GTO Transtage, with thrust uprated from  to , and with a higher specific impulse of .

The AJ10-137 engine (20,500 lbf (91 kN) of thrust) was used in the Apollo service module's service propulsion system from first flight in 1966.  Trans-Earth injection, from lunar orbit, was the most critical usage of this engine during the Apollo program. 
This version used Aerozine 50 (a 1:1 mix of UDMH and hydrazine) as fuel and nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) as oxidizer, rather than the previous nitric acid/UDMH.

The AJ10-118F engine produced  of thrust and was derived from the AJ10-138 engine used on the Transtage. It was used by the Delta-F upper stage of the Delta 1000 Straight Eight series rocket, starting in 1972.
This version also used Aerozine 50 as fuel and nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) as oxidizer.

The AJ10-190 engine was used on the Space Shuttle Orbital Maneuvering System (OMS) for orbital insertion, on-orbit maneuvers, and de-orbiting, first flown in 1981. They produced  of thrust with a specific impulse (Isp) of 316 seconds. 
Following the retirement of the Shuttle, these engines were repurposed for use on the Orion spacecraft's service module. This variant uses Monomethylhydrazine as fuel, with nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) as oxidizer.

The AJ10-118K engine was used on the Delta II rocket's upper stage, Delta-K. It used Aerozine 50 as fuel and nitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) as oxidizer.  The AJ10-118K engine variant was used from 1989 and retired at the conclusion of the ICESat-2 launch on 15 September 2018.

MMTS (meteorology). A Maximum Minimum Temperature System or MMTS is a temperature recording system that keeps track of the maximum and minimum temperatures that have occurred over some given time period.

The earliest, and still perhaps most familiar, form is the Maximum minimum thermometer invented by James Six in 1782.

Today a typical MMTS is a thermistor. This may be read locally or can transmit its results electronically.

Network dynamics. Network dynamics is a research field for the study of networks whose status changes in time. The dynamics may refer to the structure of connections of the units of a network, to the collective internal state of the network,  or both. The networked systems could be from the fields of biology, chemistry, physics, sociology, economics, computer science, etc. Networked systems are typically characterized as complex systems consisting of many units coupled by specific, potentially changing, interaction topologies.

For a dynamical systems' approach to discrete network dynamics, see sequential dynamical system.

School of Army Aviation (Germany). 

The German School of Army Aviation (Heeresfliegerwaffenschule) based at Bückeburg, is one of the schools of the German Army and is responsible for the training and development of the German Army Aviation Corps' personnel and equipment. Furthermore, the basic training of helicopter pilots of the other components of the German Armed Forces also takes place at the School of Army Aviation.

The School of Army Aviation was founded on 1 July 1959 and based first at Mendig before being transferred on 12 January 1960 to its current location at Bückeburg Air Base, utilising the facilities of RAF Bückeburg, constructed by the Royal Air Force in 1946 and closed in the mid-1950s.

In October 2011 the German Federal Ministry of Defence announced a reorganisation/reduction of the German Armed Forces. Due to the reduction of helicopter units within the German Army, some of which are to be disbanded whereas others are to be transferred to the German Air Force, and also in light of the already existing international character of training helicopter pilots, the School of Army Aviation (Heeresfliegerwaffenschule) will be renamed to International Helicopter Training Centre. Training of helicopter pilots of the other components of the German Armed Forces (Air Force and Navy) at Bückeburg  started in 2011.

Organisation 
The head and commanding officer the German School of Army Aviation has the rank of brigadier general and the position of General of the Army Aviation Corps (General der Heeresflieger). The school is structured in:

 Staff
 Support Group
 Technical Maintenance Department
 Development Group
 Instruction Group

Staff of the German Armed Forces' Central Medical Services, amongst which are a high-ranking flight surgeon and flight psychologist, are also incorporated into the school.

Apart from the actual flight training, modern high-end flight simulators are extensively used during the training of future military helicopter pilots.

Together with the French Army Light Aviation the Franco-German Training Centre TIGER at Le Luc – Le Cannet Airport in Le Cannet-des-Maures was established, solely dedicated to provide flying instruction on the Eurocopter Tiger.

Berger Factory. The Berger Factory is a historic factory building at 37 Williams Street in Boston, Massachusetts.  Built in 1902, it was home to one of the nation's first manufacturers of precision engineering and surveying instruments, and a surviving example of  Roxbury's late 19th-century industrial development.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, and now houses residences.

Description
The former Berger Factory is located just north of Roxbury's central Nubian Square (formerly Dudley Square), on the north side of Williams Street between Shawmut Avenue and Washington Street.  It is a relatively architecturally undistinguished brick industrial building, three stories in height, and covered by a flat roof.  A single-story ell, also with a flat roof gives the building an L shape.  The street facing facade is basically ten bays wide, with windows on the first two floors topped by brick segmental arches, and those on the third with stone lintels.  Left of the window bays is an eleventh bay, with a bricked-over smaller window on the ground floor, and decorative brickwork on the levels above, capped by a round-arch projection with a round window.  The interior of the building has been converted into residential use.

The Berger Company was founded in 1871 by Christian Berger, a German immigrant who had learned the manufacture of precision surveying instruments in England.  At first known as Buff and Berger, it was originally located in downtown Boston, moving to this newly constructed facility in 1902.  The main block was designed by Boston architect George Moffette, and the ell, added in 1907, was the work of Henry J. Preston.  The company occupied these premises until 1976, when it moved to a new facility in Mattapan.  After being vacant for some years, it was converted into residences.

The Berger Company was the first American manufacturer of precision engineering equipment.  Its gear was used in surveys for the Panama Canal, in the construction of New York City skyscrapers, and in American polar expeditions of Admiral Richard E. Byrd and Robert Peary.

Kinetics (physics). In physics and engineering, kinetics is the branch of classical mechanics that is concerned with the relationship between the motion and its causes, specifically, forces and torques. Since the mid-20th century, the term "dynamics" (or "analytical dynamics") has largely superseded "kinetics" in physics textbooks, though the term is still used in engineering.

In plasma physics, kinetics refers to the study of continua in velocity space.  This is usually in the context of non-thermal (non-Maxwellian) velocity distributions, or processes that perturb thermal distributions. These "kinetic plasmas" cannot be adequately described with fluid equations.

The term kinetics is also used to refer to chemical kinetics, particularly in chemical physics and physical chemistry. In such uses, a qualifier is often used or implied, for example: "physical kinetics", "crystal growth kinetics", and so on.

Etch (protocol). Etch was an open-source, cross-platform framework for building network services, first announced  in May 2008 by Cisco Systems. Etch encompasses a service description language, a compiler, and a number of language bindings. It is intended to supplement SOAP and CORBA as methods of communicating between networked pieces of software, especially where there is an emphasis on portability, transport independence, small size, and high performance. Etch was designed to be incorporated into existing applications and systems, enabling a transition to a service-oriented architecture. It was derived from work on the Cisco Unified Application Environment, the product acquired by Cisco as part of the Metreos acquisition.

History
The mid-2008 release was planned to supported Java and C#. A second wave of support was supposed to include Ruby, Python, JavaScript, and C.

In July 2008, Etch was released under the Apache 2.0 license.

As part of the open source process, Etch was submitted to the Apache Incubator to be accepted as a new podling. On August 25, 2008, the formal vote was proposed and was eventually passed. In September 2008 Etch entered the start-up phase within the Apache Incubator.

Cisco announced the Unified Application Environment had its "end of life" on February 8, 2012.

In January 2013, Etch has become an Apache top-level project.

Etch was marked as a "retired" project in December 2016. No replacement project has been announced or specified.
