Computer-aided facility management. Computer-aided facility management (CAFM) is the support of facility management by information technology. The supply of information about the facilities is the center of attention. The tools of the CAFM are called CAFM software, CAFM applications or CAFM systems. CAFM is often used interchangeably with CMMS since both categories of software practically fulfill the same purposes.

History 
The International Facility Management Association (IFMA) defines facility management as the practice of coordinating the physical workplace with the people and work of the organization. It integrates principles from business administration, architecture, as well as the behavioral and engineering sciences. As such, facility management has been practiced—whether specifically identified as its own discipline or not—since the inception of business organizations. Over the years, it has evolved into a clearly defined field of expertise through the development and codification of processes.

Serial over LAN. Serial over LAN (SOL) is a mechanism that enables the input and output of the serial port of a managed system to be redirected over IP on a local area network (LAN).

Details
On some managed systems, notably blade server systems, the serial ports on the managed computers are not normally connected to a traditional serial port socket. To allow users to access applications on these computers via the serial port, the input/output of the serial port is redirected to the network. For example, a user wishing to access a blade server via the serial port can telnet to a network address and log in. On the blade server the login will be seen as coming through the serial port.

SOL is implemented as a payload type under the RMCP+ protocol in IPMI.

Evaporative-pattern casting. Evaporative-pattern casting is a type of casting process that uses a pattern made from a material that will evaporate when the molten metal is poured into the molding cavity. The most common evaporative-pattern material used is polystyrene foam.

The two major evaporative-pattern casting processes are:
Lost-foam casting
Full-mold casting

The main difference is that lost-foam casting uses an unbonded sand and full-mold casting uses a bonded sand (or green sand). Because this difference is quite small there is much overlap in the terminology. Non-proprietary terms that have been used to describe these processes include: cavityless casting, evaporative foam casting, foam vaporization casting, lost pattern casting, the castral process, and expanded polystyrene molding. Proprietary terms included Styro-cast, Foam Cast, Replicast, Policast. and Lost Foam Sintered Shell (LFSS)

History
The first patent for an evaporative-pattern casting process was filed in April 1956, by Harold F. Shroyer. He patented the use of foam patterns embedded in traditional green sand for metal casting. In his patent, a pattern was machined from a block of expanded polystyrene (EPS), and supported by bonded sand during pouring. This process is now known as the full mold process.

In 1964, M.C. Flemmings used unbonded sand for the process. The first North American foundry to use evaporative-pattern casting was the Robinson Foundry at Alexander City, Alabama. General Motors' first product using these processes was the 4.3 L, V-6 diesel cylinder head, which were made in 1981 at Massena, New York.

A study found in 1997 that evaporative-pattern casting processes accounted for approximately 140,000 tons of aluminium casting in the United States. The same survey forecast that evaporative-pattern casting processes would account for 29% of the aluminium, and 14% of the ferrous casting markets by 2010.

Phoenix-RTOS. Phoenix-RTOS is a real-time operating system designed for Internet of Things appliances. The main goal of the system is to facilitate the creation of "Software Defined Solutions".

History 
Phoenix-RTOS is the successor to the Phoenix operating system, developed from 1999 to 2001 by Pawel Pisarczyk at the Department of Electronics and Information Technology at Warsaw University of Technology. Phoenix was originally implemented for IA-32 microprocessors and was adapted to the  ARM7TDMI processor in 2003, and the PowerPC in 2004. The system is available under the GPL license.

Phoenix-RTOS 2.0 
The decision to abandon the development of Phoenix and write the Phoenix-RTOS from scratch was taken by its creator in 2004. In 2010, the Phoenix Systems company was established, aiming to commercialize the system.

Phoenix-RTOS 2.0 is based on a monolithic kernel. Initially versions for the IA-32 processor and configurable eSi-RISC were developed. In cooperation with NXP Semiconductors, Phoenix-RTOS 2.0 was also adapted to the Vybrid (ARM Cortex-A5) platform. This version is equipped with PRIME (Phoenix-PRIME) and the G3-PLC (Phoenix-G3) protocol support, used in Smart Grid networks.

Phoenix-RTOS runs applications designed and written for the Unix operating system.

Phoenix-RTOS 3.0 
Phoenix-RTOS version 3.0 is based on a microkernel. It is geared towards measuring devices with low power consumption. The main problem with the first implementation was low kernel modularity and difficulties with the management process of software development (device drivers, file system drivers). It is an open source operating system (on BSD license), available on GitHub.

HaaS modules 
The Phoenix-RTOS can be equipped with HaaS (Hardware as a Software) modules that allow the implementation of rich devices functionality, e.g. modems. Existing HaaS modules include:

 Phoenix-PRIME - software implementation of PRIME PLC standard certified in 2014.
 Phoenix-G3 - a software implementation of the G3-PLC standard.

Implementations 
In 2016, Energa-Operator (based in Poland) installed 6.6k Data Concentrator Units with balancing meter functionality in its network, based on the Phoenix-RTOS.  License agreements to use the system in the mass production of smart meters have been signed.

William Louis Marshall. William Louis Marshall (June 11, 1846, in Washington, Kentucky – July 2, 1920) was an influential figure in the US Corps of Engineers.

At age 16 Marshall enlisted in the 10th Kentucky Cavalry, Union Army.  He graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1868 and was commissioned in the Corps of Engineers.  Accompanying Lieutenant George Wheeler's Wheeler Survey expedition (1872–76), Marshall covered thousands of miles on foot and horseback and discovered Marshall Pass in central Colorado.  He oversaw improvements on the Lower Mississippi River near Vicksburg and on the Fox–Wisconsin Waterway canal system in Wisconsin. As Chicago District Engineer from 1888 to 1899, he planned and began to build the Illinois and Mississippi Canal. Marshall made innovative use of concrete masonry and developed original and cost-saving methods of canal lock construction.  Stationed at New York (1900–08), he directed the Ambrose Channel project and the standardizing of fortification construction methods. He retired June 11, 1910—the final Chief of Engineers to have served in the Civil War—but his engineering reputation earned a special appointment from President William Howard Taft as consulting engineer to the Secretary of the Interior on hydroelectric power projects.  General Marshall died July 2, 1920, in Washington, D.C.

Cause for Alarm (novel). Cause for Alarm is a novel by Eric Ambler first published in 1938. Set in Fascist Italy in that year, the book is one of Ambler's classic spy thrillers.

Plot summary
Nicholas Marlow, an English engineer engaged to a young doctor, loses his well-paid job. A replacement is hard to find amid the Great Depression, but his ability to speak some Italian wins him a post with the Spartacus Machine Tool Company in Wolverhampton. This engineering firm manufactures the "Spartacus Type S2 automatic" boring machine, which is used for shell production. Marlow signs on as Spartacus's representative in Italy, secretly deciding that he will quit the job as soon as possible to go back to England and get married.

On arrival in Milan, Marlow discovers there is a huge backlog at his office, and that his personal assistant Bellinetti is highly inefficient. A lot of his time is diverted by the Italian authorities, to whom he has to report on a regular basis and who eventually claim that they have misplaced his passport so he is unable to leave the country. There is growing uneasiness on Marlow's part when he notices his private correspondence with his fiancée has been steamed open. He makes friends with Andreas Zaleshoff, a Russian spy whose office is in the same building. Marlow learns that his predecessor was murdered, and that Bellinetti is an agent for the OVRA.

Marlow is contacted by a General Vagas, a Yugoslav of German descent, who asks Marlow to spy for him. Zaleshoff informs Marlow that Vagas is actually a German agent, and encourages Marlow to accept the offer and feed Vagas information supplied by Zaleshoff. Zaleshoff's intention is to sow discord in the alliance between Italy and Germany.

Vagas's wife reports him to the Italian authorities, and an arrest warrant is issued for Marlow. Assisted by Zaleshoff and his sister Tamara, Marlow succeeds in escaping from Milan. The two men embark on a several-day-long journey by train and on foot, headed for the Yugoslav border. A mountain snowstorm compels them to spend the night with Beronelli, a former mathematics professor. Driven out of his job because of his lukewarm response to the Fascist government, Beronelli has become delusional, believing that he has discovered the secret of perpetual motion; his daughter recognises Zaleshoff and Marlow as fugitives, but spares them in return for their humouring her father. They reach Zagreb, from which Marlow can safely travel home to England.

Context

Like many of Ambler's novels, it features an amateur hero who is out of his depth.

The characters of Zaleshoff and Tamara also play a significant role in Ambler's novel Uncommon Danger.
