https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RUCAPS | RUCAPS (Really Universal Computer-Aided Production System) was a computer aided design (CAD) system for architects, first developed during the 1970s and 1980s, and today credited as a forerunner of Building Information Modelling (BIM). It ran on minicomputers from Prime Computer and Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC).... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity-check%20matrix | In coding theory, a parity-check matrix of a linear block code C is a matrix which describes the linear relations that the components of a codeword must satisfy. It can be used to decide whether a particular vector is a codeword and is also used in decoding algorithms.
Definition
Formally, a parity check matrix H of a... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary%20mismatch | Evolutionary mismatch (also "mismatch theory" or "evolutionary trap") is the evolutionary biology concept that a previously advantageous trait may become maladaptive due to change in the environment, especially when change is rapid. It is said this can take place in humans as well as other animals.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogenase%20mimic | A hydrogenase mimic or bio-mimetic is an enzyme mimic of hydrogenases.
Bio-mimetic compounds inspired in hydrogenases
One of the more interesting applications of hydrogenases is to produce hydrogen, due its capacity to catalyze its redox reaction:
In the field of hydrogen production, the incorporation of chemical c... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal%20numerical%20competence | In human developmental psychology or non-human primate experiments, ordinal numerical competence or ordinal numerical knowledge is the ability to count objects in order and to understand the greater than and less than relationships between numbers. It has been shown that children as young as two can make some ordinal n... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State%20of%20charge | State of charge (SoC) is the level of charge of an electric battery relative to its capacity. SoC is usually expressed as percentage (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the same measure is the depth of discharge (DoD), calculated as 100 - SoC (100% = empty; 0% = full). SoC is normally used when discussing... |
