Before a space shuttle launch, several processing steps occur that are rarely seen by the public. The external tank arrives by barge and is lifted vertically in the VAB. Solid rocket boosters and engines are attached to the external tank and orbiter in the VAB and SPF. The payload is prepared in the PPR and then transported to the launch pad to be inserted into the orbiter. Finally, the shuttle is moved atop the crawler from the VAB to the launch pad where it is ready for launch.

Minimalism
Minimalism began in the 1950s and 1970s as an art movement that used simple geometric shapes and repeated patterns in stripped down, fundamental forms. It was influenced by abstract expressionism and constructivism. Key minimalist artists included Donald Judd, who focused on boxes, stacks, and progression in brushed aluminum and Plexiglas sculptures; Frank Stella, known for monochrome paintings and use of simple geometric shapes; Dan Flavin, who used colored fluorescent lights to create installations; and Sol LeWitt, who created wall drawings by writing instructions for temporary, two-dimensional art that involved collaboration.
Space debris.
The document discusses space debris, which consists of objects in Earth's orbit that no longer serve a useful purpose, such as non-functioning satellites, rocket stages, and fragments from collisions or explosions. There are currently over 300,000 objects estimated to be flying over the planet, and the amount is increasing by 5% each year. Two events in particular have increased space debris: a 2007 Chinese anti-satellite missile test that created over 15,000 fragments, and a 2009 collision between two objects that led to additional fragments. The growing amount of debris poses risks like the Kessler syndrome and can damage functioning spacecraft. Proposed solutions include debris collection nets and using ground-based lasers to divert objects.
Understanding and improving Wikipedia article discussion spaces SAC2011
The document discusses improving Wikipedia talk pages through semantic structuring and social analysis. It presents research on understanding how talk pages are used through interviews and analyzing 100 pages. A semantic model is developed to represent talk page content and structure. The model can be used to semantically mark-up talk pages and extract socially useful information through queries. The goal is to increase coordination and understanding of discussions through adding semantic structure.
Space Shuttle Discovery Launch
The document summarizes the pre-flight processing steps for the space shuttle Discovery. The external tank arrives by barge and is lifted vertically in the VAB. The solid rocket boosters and engines are attached to the external tank. Meanwhile, the shuttle is attached to the external tank in the VAB.

This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
