A thermal wheel, also known as a rotary heat exchanger, or rotary air-to-air enthalpy wheel, energy recovery wheel, or heat recovery wheel, is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of air-handling units or rooftop units or in the exhaust gases of an industrial pro...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioscop
The Bioscop is a movie projector developed in 1895 by German inventors and filmmakers Max Skladanowsky and his brother Emil Skladanowsky (1866–1945). History The Bioscop used two loops of 54-mm films without a side perforation. This caused poor control of the film-transport through the projector and might have contr...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance%20rating%20%28work%20measurement%29
Performance rating is the step in the work measurement in which the analyst observes the worker's performance and records a value representing that performance relative to the analyst's concept of standard performance. Performance rating helps people do their jobs better, identifies training and education needs, assig...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health%20network%20surveillance
Health network surveillance is a practice of health information management involving a combination of security, privacy and regulatory compliance with patient health information (PHI). Health network surveillance addresses the rapidly increasing trend of electronic health records (EHR) and its incompatibility with info...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure%20fusion
In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, exposure fusion is a technique for blending multiple exposures of the same scene (bracketing) into a single image. As in high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR), the goal is to capture a scene with a higher dynamic range than the camera is capable of captur...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge%20Canyon%20Dam
Bridge Canyon Dam, also called Hualapai Dam, was a proposed dam in the lower Grand Canyon of the Colorado River, in northern Arizona in the United States. It would have been located near Bridge Canyon Rapids in an extremely rugged and isolated portion of the canyon, downstream of Lees Ferry and at the uppermost end of...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic%20geometry%20%28differential%20geometry%29
In differential geometry and the study of Lie groups, a parabolic geometry is a homogeneous space G/P which is the quotient of a semisimple Lie group G by a parabolic subgroup P. More generally, the curved analogs of a parabolic geometry in this sense is also called a parabolic geometry: any geometry that is modeled o...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadamard%27s%20maximal%20determinant%20problem
Hadamard's maximal determinant problem, named after Jacques Hadamard, asks for the largest determinant of a matrix with elements equal to 1 or −1. The analogous question for matrices with elements equal to 0 or 1 is equivalent since, as will be shown below, the maximal determinant of a {1,−1} matrix of size n is 2n−1 ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-around%20coil
A run-around coil is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger most often positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air handling system, or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process, to recover the heat energy. Generally, it refers to any intermediate stream used to transfer heat between two streams...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lusin%27s%20separation%20theorem
In descriptive set theory and mathematical logic, Lusin's separation theorem states that if A and B are disjoint analytic subsets of Polish space, then there is a Borel set C in the space such that A ⊆ C and B ∩ C = ∅. It is named after Nikolai Luzin, who proved it in 1927. The theorem can be generalized to show that ...

The International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE) is a large annual software engineering conference. The first conference in the series was held in 1986. Between 1986 and 1990 the conference was known as Knowledge-Based Software Assistant (KBSA), between 1991 and 1996 the conference was known as Know...
