https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule%20%28programming%20language%29 | Joule is a capability-secure massively-concurrent dataflow programming language, designed for building distributed applications. It is so concurrent that the order of statements within a block is irrelevant to the operation of the block. Statements are executed whenever possible, based on their inputs. Everything in Jo... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plancherel%20theorem%20for%20spherical%20functions | In mathematics, the Plancherel theorem for spherical functions is an important result in the representation theory of semisimple Lie groups, due in its final form to Harish-Chandra. It is a natural generalisation in non-commutative harmonic analysis of the Plancherel formula and Fourier inversion formula in the represe... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral%20element | In commutative algebra, an element b of a commutative ring B is said to be integral over A, a subring of B, if there are n ≥ 1 and aj in A such that
That is to say, b is a root of a monic polynomial over A. The set of elements of B that are integral over A is called the integral closure of A in B. It is a subring of B... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North%20Carolina%20macular%20dystrophy | North Carolina macular dystrophy is an extremely rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that primarily affects the eyes. It is a non-progressive disorder which is characterized by an abnormal development of the macula, multiple drusen, photoreceptor cells atrophy, and central vision loss. This condition is caused by ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finsler%27s%20lemma | Finsler's lemma is a mathematical result named after Paul Finsler. It states equivalent ways to express the positive definiteness of a quadratic form Q constrained by a linear form L.
Since it is equivalent to another lemmas used in optimization and control theory, such as Yakubovich's S-lemma, Finsler's lemma has be... |

IP-XACT was created by the SPIRIT Consortium as a standard to ena... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundcover | Groundcover or ground cover is any plant that grows over an area of ground. Groundcover provides protection of the topsoil from erosion and drought.
In an ecosystem, the ground cover forms the layer of vegetation below the shrub layer known as the herbaceous layer. The most widespread ground covers are grasses of vari... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kasner%20metric | The Kasner metric (developed by and named for the American mathematician Edward Kasner in 1921) is an exact solution to Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. It describes an anisotropic universe without matter (i.e., it is a vacuum solution). It can be written in any spacetime dimension and has strong conn... |
