query: Event management includes coordinating flight patterns.

pos: Event management Event management is the application of project management to the creation and development of large scale events such as festivals , conferences , ceremonies , formal parties , concerts , or conventions . It involves studying the brand , identifying it 's target audience , devising the event concept , and coordinating the technical aspects before actually launching the event .   The process of planning and coordinating the event is usually referred to as event planning and which can include budgeting , scheduling , site selection , acquiring necessary permits , coordinating transportation and parking , arranging for speakers or entertainers , arranging decor , event security , catering , coordinating with third party vendors , and emergency plans .   The events industry now includes events of all sizes from the Olympics down to business breakfast meetings . Many industries , charitable organizations , and interest groups hold events in order to market themselves , build business relationships , raise money , or celebrate achievement .

neg: Design management Design management is a business discipline that uses project management , design , strategy , and supply chain techniques to control a creative process , support a culture of creativity , and build a structure and organization for design . The objective of design management is to develop and maintain an efficient business environment in which an organization can achieve its strategic and mission goals through design . Design management is a comprehensive activity at all levels of business ( operational to strategic ) , from the discovery phase to the execution phase . `` Simply put , design management is the business side of design . Design management encompasses the ongoing processes , business decisions , and strategies that enable innovation and create effectively-designed products , services , communications , environments , and brands that enhance our quality of life and provide organizational success . '' The discipline of design management overlaps with marketing management , operations management , and strategic management .   Traditionally , design management was seen as limited to the management of design projects , but over time , it evolved to include other aspects of an organization at the functional and strategic level . A more recent debate concerns the integration of design thinking into strategic management as a cross-disciplinary and human-centered approach to management . This paradigm also focuses on a collaborative and iterative style of work and an abductive mode of inference , compared to practices associated with the more traditional management paradigm .   Design has become a strategic asset in brand equity , differentiation , and product quality for many companies . More and more organizations apply design management to improve design-relevant activities and to better connect design with corporate strategy .

neg: Apple event Apple events are the message-based interprocess communication mechanism in Mac OS , first appearing in System 7 and supported by every version of the classic Mac OS since then and by macOS . Apple events describe `` high-level '' events such as `` open document '' or `` print file '' , whereas earlier OSs had supported much more basic events , namely `` click '' and `` keypress '' . Apple events form the basis of the Mac OS scripting system , the Open Scripting Architecture ( the primary language of such being AppleScript ) .   The starting point is a dynamically-typed , extensible descriptor format called an AEDesc , which is just an OSType code specifying the data type , together with a block of type-dependent data . For instance , the OSType code inte indicates that the data was a four-byte signed integer in big-endian format .   Besides predefined type codes for various common simple types , there are two predefined structured descriptor types : an AERecord , which has data type reco ( record ) , and AEList with type list ( list or array ) . The internal structure of these contain recursively-nested AEDescs , while the AERecord also associates each element with a unique record field ID , which is an OSType . The Apple Event Manager provides API calls to construct these structures , as well as extract their contents and query the type of contents they hold .   The Apple Event Manager also supports coercions , which converts AEDescs from one data type to another . In addition to standard coercions , for instance between integer and real types , applications can install their own coercion handler callbacks , which handle conversions to and from custom data types .   An Apple event proper is an AERecord with fields that depended on the purpose of the event . In addition , it has attributes ( which are distinct from record fields , which are now called the parameters of the event ) from a set predefined by the Apple Event Manager . These specify what the event is supposed to do ( through event class and event ID ) , the target address to which the event is to be sent ( which could be a process on the local or a remote machine ) , and various other options for handling it . Remote machines initially had to be connected via AppleTalk , but Mac OS 9 added the option for connections via TCP/IP .   After sending an Apple event to its target process , the sending process can elect to receive a reply Apple event . This can contain various bits of information returned from the target about the processing of the original event , including an error code indicating success/failure , any information requested by the original event , and/or other appropriate information .   Apple events are the foundation of the AppleEvent Object Model , which in turn is the foundation of the OSA and AppleScript . , the official implementation of the Apple Event Manager API is available in C and its descendants , including C++ . Official bindings are also provided for Objective-C and Swift through the Cocoa API . Unofficial bindings also exist for other languages ( with varying degrees of limitation ) , including Perl , UserTalk , Ruby and Python .

neg: Departure control system A Departure Control System ( DCS ) automates processing an airlines ' airport management operation . This includes managing the information required for airport check-in and printing boarding card , baggage acceptance , boarding , load control and aircraft checks .   Today DCS mostly ( 98 % ) manage electronic tickets via interfaces from range of devices including check-in kiosks , online check-in , mobile boarding cards , and baggage handling . DCS are able to identify , capture and update reservations from an airlines Computer Reservation System for passengers stored in a so-called Passenger Name Record ( PNR ) . A DCS is used to update reservations , typically as checked-in , boarded , flown or another status .   Additionally and increasingly a DCS for some city-pair sectors may also be connected with immigration control for visa , immigration and passenger no-fly watchlists .   Historically systems developed in North America have incorporated DCS functions as part of the reservations systems with check-in being initiated directly from the PNR . Load control ( weight and balance ) is then provided by a standalone application . Systems developed by airlines outside North America have traditionally had a separate database for DCS , requiring passenger data to be transferred from the PNR into DCS records . These systems have an integrated weight and balance capability .   So-called `` new generation '' DCSs are being developed and deployed by vendors such as Amadeus and SITA as part of the overall re-engineering of airline Passenger Services Systems . These new systems typically use a common database and a services oriented architecture that allows reservations , check-in and other services to maintain a consistent view of passenger information .   Larger international airports will have a range of DCS or a single DCS which each particular airline carrier can integrate with for streamlined operations .

neg: Helicopter flight controls A helicopter pilot manipulates the helicopter flight controls to achieve and maintain controlled aerodynamic flight . Changes to the aircraft flight control system transmit mechanically to the rotor , producing aerodynamic effects on the rotor blades that make the helicopter move in a deliberate way . To tilt forward and back ( pitch ) or sideways ( roll ) , requires that the controls alter the angle of attack of the main rotor blades cyclically during rotation , creating differing amounts of lift ( force ) at different points in the cycle . To increase or decrease overall lift requires that the controls alter the angle of attack for all blades collectively by equal amounts at the same time , resulting in ascent , descent , acceleration and deceleration .   A typical helicopter has three flight control inputs -- the cyclic stick , the collective lever , and the anti-torque pedals . Depending on the complexity of the helicopter , the cyclic and collective may be linked together by a mixing unit , a mechanical or hydraulic device that combines the inputs from both and then sends along the `` mixed '' input to the control surfaces to achieve the desired result . The manual throttle may also be considered a flight control because it is needed to maintain rotor speed on smaller helicopters without governors . The governors also help the pilot control the collective pitch on the helicopters main rotors , to keep a stable , more accurate flight .

neg: Flight dynamics (fixed-wing aircraft) Flight dynamics is the science of air vehicle orientation and control in three dimensions . The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle 's center of mass , known as pitch , roll and yaw .   Aerospace engineers develop control systems for a vehicle 's orientation ( attitude ) about its center of mass . The control systems include actuators , which exert forces in various directions , and generate rotational forces or moments about the aerodynamic center of the aircraft , and thus rotate the aircraft in pitch , roll , or yaw . For example , a pitching moment is a vertical force applied at a distance forward or aft from the aerodynamic center of the aircraft , causing the aircraft to pitch up or down .   Roll , pitch and yaw refer to rotations about the respective axes starting from a defined steady flight equilibrium state . The equilibrium roll angle is known as wings level or zero bank angle , equivalent to a level heeling angle on a ship . Yaw is known as `` heading '' . The equilibrium pitch angle in submarine and airship parlance is known as `` trim '' , but in aircraft , `` trim '' usually refers to the equilibrium angle of attack , rather than orientation . However , common usage ignores this distinction between equilibrium and dynamic cases .   The most common aeronautical convention defines the roll as acting about the longitudinal axis , positive with the starboard ( right ) wing down . The yaw is about the vertical body axis , positive with the nose to starboard . Pitch is about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal plane of symmetry , positive nose up .   A fixed-wing aircraft increases or decreases the lift generated by the wings when it pitches nose up or down by increasing or decreasing the angle of attack ( AOA ) . The roll angle is also known as bank angle on a fixed-wing aircraft , which usually `` banks '' to change the horizontal direction of flight . An aircraft is usually streamlined from nose to tail to reduce drag making it typically advantageous to keep the sideslip angle near zero , though there are instances when an aircraft may be deliberately `` sideslipped '' for example a slip in a fixed-wing aircraft .

neg: Enrollment management Enrollment Management is a term that is used frequently in higher education to describe well-planned strategies and tactics to shape the enrollment of an institution and meet established goals . Plainly stated , enrollment management is an organizational concept and a systematic set of activities designed to enable educational institutions to exert more influence over their student enrollments .   Such practices often include marketing , admission policies , retention programs , and financial aid awarding . Strategies and tactics are informed by collection , analysis , and use of data to project successful outcomes . Activities that produce measurable improvements in yields are continued and/or expanded , while those activities that do not are discontinued or restructured . Competitive efforts to recruit students is a common emphasis of enrollment managers .   The numbers of universities and colleges instituting offices of `` enrollment management '' have increased in recent years . These offices serve to provide direction and coordination of efforts of multiple offices such as admissions , financial aid , registration , and other student services . Often these offices are part of an enrollment management division .   Some of the typical aims of enrollment management include :   Improving yields at inquiry , application , and enrollment stages .  Increasing net revenue , usually by improving the proportion of entering students capable of paying most or all of unsubsidized tuition ( `` full-pays '' )  Increasing demographic diversity  Improving retention rates  Increasing applicant pools   According to Matthew Quirk :  More-advanced enrollment managers also tend to focus as much on retaining admitted students as on deciding whom to recruit and accept . They smooth out administrative hassles , guarantee at-risk students the advising and academic help they need , and ensure that the different parts of the university 's bureaucracy work together to get students out the door with a degree .

neg: Evolution of Management Systems ' A management system is the framework of processes and procedures used to ensure that an organization can fulfill all tasks required to achieve its objectives .   After World War II , the reigning paradigm of product-oriented mass production had reached its peak . Examples of management systems at that time are linear assembly lines , organizational hierarchies of command , product quality control and mass consumption .   Soon afterwards , the Deming-Juran process-quality teachings spearheaded a new quality orientation ( later referred to as Total quality management ) and propelled Japan directly to the post-war process focus ( process quality control , just-in-time , continuous improvement ) . The US responded by a painful and prolonged product-to-process transformation , ultimately leveling the playing field again by the mid 1980s .   At the end of the 1980s , business process reengineering focused on the radical redesign of the production process through the reintegration of task , labor and knowledge . As a result , lean , flexible and streamlined production processes were created , capable of fast response and internet-based integration necessary for the upcoming phase of supply chains - business-to-business ( B2B ) -- as well as demand chains -- business-to-customer ( B2C ) .   In the above three stages of Evolution of Management Systems '' ' , the competitive advantage was derived almost exclusively from the internal resources of the firm . At the end of the 1980s , a radical fourth shift has occurred : the competitive advantage became increasingly derived from the external resources of the firm -- through the extended networks of suppliers and customers .   Figure 1 refers to the basic scheme of production and service delivery process . It represents the traditional linear input-process-output management system . This system has been fixed and unchanging for centuries . The only change has been in terms of changing focus on individual components of the system , emphasizing different parts of this basic scheme .   Although the scheme itself ( inputs → process → outputs ) remains mostly unchallenged , there are some indications that this business model will undergo major restructurings in the future ( in the emerging stages of Evolution of Management Systems ) . It will become disaggregated and distributed , subjected to non-linear modularity and bringing forth new ways of making things and delivering services . Then it will become reintegrated again , tying together globally distributed components into a unified recycling whole .

neg: Foresight (futures studies) In futures studies , especially in Europe , the term `` foresight '' has become widely used to describe activities such as :  critical thinking concerning long-term developments ,  debate and for some futurists who are normative and focus on action driven by their values who may be concerned with effort to create wider participatory democracy . Foresight is a set of competencies and not a value system , however .  shaping the future , especially by influencing public policy .   In the last decade , scenario methods , for example , have become widely used in some European countries in policy-making . The FORSOCIETY network brings together national Foresight teams from most European countries , and the European Foresight Monitoring Project is collating material on Foresight activities around the world . In addition , foresight methods are being used more and more in regional planning and decision -- making ( `` regional foresight '' ) . Several non-European think-tanks like Strategic Foresight Group are also enagaged in foresight studies .   The foresight of futures studies is also known as strategic foresight . this foresight used by and describing professional futurists trained in Master 's programs is the research-driven practice of exploring expected and alternative futures and guiding futures to inform strategy . Foresight includes understanding the relevant recent past ; scanning to collect insight about present , futuring to describe the understood future including trend research ; environment research to explore possible trend breaks from developments on the fringe and other divergencies that may lead to alternative futures ; visioning to define preferred future states ; designing strategies to craft this future ; and adapting the present forces to implement this plan . There is notable but not complete overlap between foresight and strategic planning , change management , forecasting , and design thinking .   At the same time , the use of foresight for companies ( `` corporate foresight '' ) is becoming more professional and widespread Corporate foresight is used to support strategic management , identify new business fields and increase the innovation capacity of a firm .   Foresight is not the same as futures research or strategic planning . It encompasses a range of approaches that combine the three components mentioned above , which may be recast as :  futures ( forecasting , forward thinking , prospectives ) ,  planning ( strategic analysis , priority setting ) , and  networking ( participatory , dialogic ) tools and orientations .   Much futures research has been rather ivory tower work , but Foresight programmes were designed to influence policy - often R&D policy . Much technology policy had been very elitist ; Foresight attempts to go beyond the `` usual suspects '' and gather widely distributed intelligence . These three lines of work were already common in Francophone futures studies going by the name la prospective . But in the 1990s we began to see what became an explosion of systematic organisation of these methods in large scale TECHNOLOGY FORESIGHT programmes in Europe and more widely .   Foresight thus draws on traditions of work in long-range planning and strategic planning , horizontal policymaking and democratic planning , and participatory futures studies - but was also highly influenced by systemic approaches to innovation studies , science and technology policy , and analysis of `` critical technologies '' .   Many of the methods that are commonly associated with Foresight - Delphi surveys , scenario workshops , etc. - derive from the futures field . So does the fact that Foresight is concerned with :   The longer-term - futures that are usually at least 10 years away ( though there are some exceptions to this , especially in its use in private business ) . Since Foresight is action-oriented ( the planning link ) it will rarely be oriented to perspectives beyond a few decades out ( though where decisions like aircraft design , power station construction or other major infrastructural decisions are concerned , then the planning horizon may well be half a century ) .  Alternative futures : it is helpful to examine alternative paths of development , not just what is currently believed to be most likely or business as usual . Often Foresight will construct multiple scenarios . These may be an interim step on the way to creating what may be known as positive visions , success scenarios , aspirational futures . Sometimes alternative scenarios will be a major part of the output of Foresight work , with the decision about what future to build being left to other mechanisms .

neg: Deadline-monotonic scheduling Deadline-monotonic priority assignment is a priority assignment policy used with fixed priority pre-emptive scheduling .   With deadline-monotonic priority assignment , tasks are assigned priorities according to their deadlines ; the task with the shortest deadline being assigned the highest priority .   This priority assignment policy is optimal for a set of periodic or sporadic tasks which comply with the following restrictive system model :   All tasks have deadlines less than or equal to their minimum inter-arrival times ( or periods ) .  All tasks have worst-case execution times ( WCET ) that are less than or equal to their deadlines .  All tasks are independent and so do not block each other 's execution ( for example by accessing mutually exclusive shared resources ) .  No task voluntarily suspends itself .  There is some point in time , referred to as a critical instant , where all of the tasks become ready to execute simultaneously .  Scheduling overheads ( switching from one task to another ) are zero .  All tasks have zero release jitter ( the time from the task arriving to it becoming ready to execute ) .   If restriction 7 is lifted , then `` deadline minus jitter '' monotonic priority assignment is optimal .   If restriction 1 . is lifted allowing deadlines greater than periods , then Audsley 's optimal priority assignment algorithm may be used to find the optimal priority assignment .   Deadline monotonic priority assignment is not optimal for fixed priority non-pre-emptive scheduling .   A fixed priority assignment policy P is referred to as optimal if no task set exists which is schedulable using a different priority assignment policy which is not also schedulable using priority assignment policy P. Or in other words : Deadline-monotonic priority assignment ( DMPA ) policy is optimal if any process set , Q , that is schedulable by priority scheme , W , is also schedulable by DMPA

neg: Preparedness Preparedness refers to a very concrete research based set of actions that are taken as precautionary measures in the face of potential disasters . These actions can include both physical preparations ( such as emergency supplies depots , adapting buildings to survive earthquakes and so on ) and trainings for emergency action . Preparedness is an important quality in achieving goals and in avoiding and mitigating negative outcomes .  There are different types of preparedness , such as public health preparedness and local emergency preparedness or snow preparedness ( i.e. : Snow Preparedness Teams - SPT ) , but probably the most developed type is `` Disaster Preparedness '' , defined by the UN as involving `` forecasting and taking precautionary measures prior to an imminent threat when advance warnings are possible '' . This includes not only natural disasters , but all kinds of severe damage caused in a relatively short period , including warfare .  Preparedness is a major phase of emergency management , and is particularly valued in areas of competition such as sport and military science .   Methods of preparation include research , estimation , planning , resourcing , education , practicing and rehearsing .

neg: Event loop In computer science , the event loop , message dispatcher , message loop , message pump , or run loop is a programming construct that waits for and dispatches events or messages in a program . It works by making a request to some internal or external `` event provider '' ( that generally blocks the request until an event has arrived ) , and then it calls the relevant event handler ( `` dispatches the event '' ) . The event-loop may be used in conjunction with a reactor , if the event provider follows the file interface , which can be selected or ` polled ' ( the Unix system call , not actual polling ) . The event loop almost always operates asynchronously with the message originator .   When the event loop forms the central control flow construct of a program , as it often does , it may be termed the main loop or main event loop . This title is appropriate , because such an event loop is at the highest level of control within the program .

neg: Airmanship Airmanship is skill and knowledge applied to aerial navigation , similar to seamanship in maritime navigation . Airmanship covers a broad range of desirable behaviors and abilities in an aviator . It is not simply a measure of skill or technique , but also a measure of a pilot 's awareness of the aircraft , the environment in which it operates , and of his own capabilities .   Airmanship can be defined as :  A sound acquaintance with the principles of flight ,  The ability to operate an airplane with competence and precision both on the ground and in the air , and  The exercise of sound judgment that results in optimal operational safety and efficiency .   The three fundamental principles of expert airmanship are skill , proficiency , and the discipline to apply them in a safe and efficient manner .  Discipline is the foundation of airmanship .  The complexity of the aviation environment demands a foundation of solid airmanship , and a healthy , positive approach to combating pilot error .   The actions of Captain Alfred C. Haynes and the crew of United Airlines Flight 232 are often cited as an exemplar of good airmanship . They were able to maintain control of their crippled McDonnell Douglas DC-10 , bringing it to a survivable `` controlled crash '' in Sioux City , Iowa , after a complete loss of all flight controls following an engine failure in July 1989 . They did this by improvising a control scheme on the spot using differential thrust on the two working engines . Captain Haynes credited his Crew Resource Management training as one of the key factors that saved his own life , and many others .   The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board occasionally cites poor airmanship as a contributing factor in its determination of probable cause in aviation accidents , although it is implicit in many of the pilot error causes it often uses . For example , in its report on the December 1 , 1993 fatal crash of Northwest Airlink Flight 5719 , the Board determined the `` failure of the company management to adequately address the previously identified deficiencies in airmanship '' was a contributing factor .  More recently , in the February 2 , 2005 business jet accident at Teterboro Airport , NTSB investigator Steve Demko , speaking about the probable cause , said determining an aircraft 's weight and balance before takeoff is `` basic airmanship , '' a `` Flying 101 type of thing . ''  And in the 2006 New York City plane crash that killed New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle , the NTSB cited `` inadequate judgement , planning and airmanship '' in its probable cause determination .   A `` failure of airmanship '' was also cited by U.S. Military Authorities in the Tarnak Farm incident in Afghanistan , where the pilot of a U.S. F-16 Fighting Falcon mistakenly targeted a 250-kilogram laser-guided bomb on Canadian troops in April 2003 , killing four of them . Airmanship covers operation of the aircraft and all its systems , so in military usage , this includes the weapons systems of combat aircraft .

neg: Contact approach A Contact Approach is an approach available to aircraft operating on an IFR flight plan , where the pilot may deviate from the published instrument approach procedure ( IAP ) and proceed to the destination airport by visual reference to the surface .   Only pilots may initiate a request for this type of approach , as regulations prohibit air traffic control ( ATC ) from asking pilots to perform them . A contact approach will only be issued if the aircraft is operating clear of clouds with at least 1-mile of flight visibility , with a reasonable expectation of continuing to the destination airport under those conditions . Additionally , the reported ground visibility at the destination airport must be at least 1 statute mile .   In the execution of a contact approach , the pilot is responsible for obstruction clearance , but ATC will still provide separation from other IFR or Special VFR traffic . If radar service is being received , it will automatically terminate when the pilot is instructed to change to the airport 's advisory frequency .   The pilot must advise ATC immediately if unable to continue the contact approach or if s/he encounters less than 1-mile flight visibility ; new instructions will then be provided by ATC . Also , ATC may issue alternative instructions if , in their judgment , weather conditions may make completion of the approach impracticable .   The contact approach is often used as time - and fuel-savings method of working the air traffic control system to a pilot 's advantage . However , this shortcut comes with two important warnings :  It is essentially a legalized form of scud-running , a potentially very dangerous practice .  It works safely only if the pilot is completely familiar with local terrain .   Thus , most instrument pilots will not fly them as they can be scary for the inexperienced .   The Aeronautical Information Manual ( AIM ) , published by the Federal Aviation Administration ( FAA ) , emphasizes that the contact approach is meant only as a substitute for a standard IAP . It is not intended to be used as a `` poor man 's '' IFR approach to an airport not having a published approach procedure , nor is it to be used to approach one airport , break-off the approach in visual conditions , and then fly to another airport .

neg: Functional Strategy Functional strategy - organizational plans prepared for various functional areas of a company 's organizational structure ( e.g. , marketing strategy , financial strategy , production strategy etc. ) . Functional strategies can be part of overall corporate strategy or serve as separate plans of strategy cascading/implementation within a functional area .   Some common functional strategies are :  Production strategy ( `` make or buy '' ) - defines what the company produces itself , and that purchases from suppliers or partners , that is , how far worked out the production chain .  Financial Strategy - to select the main source of funding : the development of their own funds ( depreciation , profit , the issue of shares , etc. ) or through debt financing ( bank loans , bonds , commodity suppliers ' credits , etc. ) .  Organizational strategy - decision on the organization of the staff ( choose the type of organizational structure , compensation system , etc. ) .  others , such as : research and development ( R & D ) strategy , investment strategy , etc. .   In addition , each of the functional strategies can be divided into components . For example , organizational strategy can be divided into three components :   strategy of building organizations - to select the type of structure ( divisional , functional , project , etc. ) ;  strategy to work with the staff - a way of training ( mainly administrative staff ) , training of staff ( in a business or educational institutions ) , career planning , etc. ;  strategy of remuneration ( wages , rewards and penalties ) - in particular , the approach to the compensation of senior managers ( salary , bonuses , profit sharing , etc. ) .   Responsible for implementation of the strategy at the functional level are senior specialists ( Ch . Engineer , Director of Finance ) . At the enterprise level - CEO , general director or director of the department , at the level of groups of companies - a collegiate body ( board of directors ) .

neg: Indianapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center Indianapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center ( ZID ) , ( radio communications , `` Indianapolis Center '' ) is one of 22 established FAA Area Control Centers , and is physically located at 1850 South Sigsbee Street , Indianapolis , Indiana , ( United States ) .   The primary responsibility of Indianapolis Center is sequencing and separation of over-flights , arrivals , and departures in order to provide safe , orderly , and expeditious flow of aircraft filed under instrument flight rules ( IFR ) .   Indianapolis Center is the 12th busiest ARTCC in the United States . Between January 1 , 2012 and December 31 , 2012 , Indianapolis Center handled 1,922,383 aircraft operations . Indianapolis Center covers approximately 73,000 square miles of the Midwestern United States , including parts of Indiana , Illinois , Kentucky , Ohio , West Virginia , Virginia and Tennessee .  Indianapolis Center lies adjacent to six Air Route Traffic Control Centers : Washington Air Route Traffic Control Center , Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center , Memphis Air Route Traffic Control Center , Kansas City Air Route Traffic Control Center , Cleveland Air Route Traffic Control Center , and Chicago Air Route Traffic Control Center . ZID overlies or abuts many approach control facilities ( including Indianapolis , Louisville , Cincinnati , Dayton , Columbus , and Charleston ) .

neg: Event (computing) In computing , an event is an action or occurrence recognized by software that may be handled by the software . Computer events can be generated or triggered by the system , by the user or in other ways . Typically , events are handled synchronously with the program flow , that is , the software may have one or more dedicated places where events are handled , frequently an event loop . A source of events includes the user , who may interact with the software by way of , for example , keystrokes on the keyboard . Another source is a hardware device such as a timer . Software can also trigger its own set of events into the event loop , e.g. to communicate the completion of a task . Software that changes its behavior in response to events is said to be event-driven , often with the goal of being interactive .

neg: Macromanagement Macromanagement is the act of leading decision makers or managing the managers . Macromanagement is a close concept to the economic concept of mechanism design .   When a macromanager directs a system , first he will focus on the system 's entities ( such as constraints , rules , information architecture , etc. ) and thereafter he will change them so that the system spontaneously moves to the defined aim , i.e. to the new lower potentials which a macromanager has tuned .   Therefore , to manage a system , a macromanager begins by evaluating the potential of different elements of the system to determine the most appropriate route . Then , instead of driving toward objectives or impeding anomalies , he works on the metasystem , rules , potential coefficients , categorizations , information architectures , etc. .   After a while , the system naturally and spontaneously proceeds to well-defined aims with a selected pace . Because it is spontaneous , opposing the system seems to be an irregular manner . Meanwhile , because of the nature of the mentioned process , no one would consider the presence of macromanager .

neg: Electronic flight bag An electronic flight bag ( EFB ) is an electronic information management device that helps flight crews perform flight management tasks more easily and efficiently with less paper . It is a general purpose computing platform intended to reduce , or replace , paper-based reference material often found in the pilot 's carry-on flight bag , including the aircraft operating manual , flight-crew operating manual , and navigational charts ( including moving map for air and ground operations ) . In addition , the EFB can host purpose-built software applications to automate other functions normally conducted by hand , such as performance take-off calculations .   The EFB gets its name from the traditional pilot 's flight bag , which is typically a heavy ( up to 40 lb/18 kg or more ) documents bag that pilots carry to the cockpit . The electronic flight bag is the replacement of those documents in a digital format . EFB weights are typically 1 to 5 pounds ( 0.5 to 2.2 kg ) , about the same as a laptop computer , and a fraction of the weight and volume of the paper publications . There are numerous benefits for using an EFB but specific benefits vary depending on the size of the operation , type of applications used , the existing content management and distribution system , the type of applications deployed . Some common benefits include : weight savings by replacing the traditional flight bag , reduced medical claims from handling traditional flight bags , reduced cost , and increased efficiency by reducing or eliminating paper processes . There are also claims of increased safety and reducing pilot workload .   According to the FAA 's Advisory Circular ( AC No. 120-76C ) , an Electronic Flight Bag is an electronic display system intended primarily for cockpit/flightdeck or cabin use .   There are also militarized variants , with secure data storage , night vision goggle compatible lighting , environmental hardening , and military specific applications and data .   EFB devices can display a variety of aviation data or perform basic calculations ( including performance data and fuel calculations . ) . In the past , some of these functions were traditionally accomplished using paper references or were based on data provided to the flight crew by an airline 's `` flight dispatch '' crew .   For large and turbine aircraft , FAR 91.503 requires the presence of navigational charts on the airplane . If an operator 's sole source of navigational chart information is contained on an EFB , the operator must demonstrate the EFB will continue to operate throughout a decompression event , and thereafter , regardless of altitude . The only way to achieve this capability is by using a solid state disk drive or a standard rotating mass drive in a sealed enclosure .   The electronic flight bag market is estimated at $ 2.28 billion in 2015 and is expected to register a CAGR of 13.41 % to reach $ 4.27 billion by 2020 .

neg: Hammock activity A hammock activity ( also hammock task ) is a schedule or project planning term for a grouping of tasks that `` hang '' between two end dates it is tied to .   A hammock activity can group tasks which are not related in the hierarchical sense of a Work Breakdown Structure , or are not related in a logical sense of a task dependency where one task must wait for another .   Usages include :  Group dissimilar activities that lead to an overall capability , such as preparations under a summary label , e.g. `` vacation preparation '' ;  Group unrelated items for the purpose of a summary such as a calendar-based reporting period , e.g. `` First quarter plans '' ;  Group ongoing or overhead activities that run the length of an effort , e.g. `` project management ''   The duration of the hammock activity ( the size of the hammock ) may also be set by the subtasks within it , so that the abstract grouping has a start date of the earliest of any of the subtasks and the finish date is the latest of any of the contents .   A hammock activity is regarded as a form of Summary activity that is similar to but different from a Level of Effort ( LOE ) activity .

neg: Warehouse control system A warehouse control system ( WCS ) is a software application that directs the real-time activities within warehouses and distribution centers ( DC ) . As the `` traffic cop '' for the warehouse/distribution center , the WCS is responsible for keeping everything running smoothly , maximizing the efficiency of the material handling subsystems and often , the activities of the warehouse associates themselves . It provides a uniform interface to a broad range of material handling equipment such as AS/RS , carousels , conveyor systems , sorters , palletizers , etc. . The primary functions of a WCS include :   Interfacing to an upper level host system/warehouse management system ( WMS ) and exchanging information required to manage the daily operations of the distribution center .  Allocating work to the various material handling sub-systems to balance system activity to complete the requested workload .  Providing real-time directives to operators and material handling equipment controllers to accomplish the order fulfillment and product routing requirements .  Dynamically assign cartons to divert locations based on defined sortation algorithms or based on routing/order information received from the Host ( if applicable ) .  Generate result data files for reporting and/or upload by the Host system .  Operational screens ( graphical user interface ) and functions to facilitate efficient control and management of the distribution warehouse .  Collect statistical data on the operational performance of the system to enable operations personnel to maintain the equipment in peak performance .   Each major function is designed to work as part of an integrated process to effectively link the host systems with the lower level control system , while relieving the Host from the real-time requirements such as operator screens and lower level equipment control interfaces .

Bantam Books obtained the rights for a paperback novelization based on the screenplay and approached Isaac Asimov to write it .  Because the novelization was released six months before the movie , many people mistakenly believed the film was based on Asimov 's book .   The movie inspired an animated television series .

neg: The Wild Geese The Wild Geese is a 1978 British adventure film directed by Andrew V. McLaglen about a group of mercenaries in Africa .

neg: Major film studio A major film studio is a production and film distributor that releases a substantial number of films annually and consistently commands a significant share of box office revenue in a given market . In the North American , Western , and global markets , the major film studios , often simply known as the majors , are commonly regarded as the six diversified media conglomerates whose various film production and distribution subsidiaries collectively command approximately 80 to 85 percent of U.S. and Canadian box office revenue . The term may also be applied more specifically to the primary motion picture business subsidiary of each respective conglomerate .   The `` Big Six '' majors , whose operations are based in or around the Los Angeles neighborhood of Hollywood , are all centered in film studios active during Hollywood 's Golden Age of the 1930s and 1940s . In three cases -- 20th Century Fox , Warner Bros. , and Paramount -- the studios were one of the `` Big Five '' majors during that era as well . In two cases -- Columbia and Universal -- the studios were also considered majors , but in the next tier down , part of the `` Little Three '' . In the sixth case , Walt Disney Studios was an independent production company during the Golden Age ; it was an important Hollywood entity , but not a major . Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer , United Artists , and RKO were majors .   Today , Disney is the only member of the Big Six whose parent entity is still located near Los Angeles ( actually , on Disney 's studio lot and in the same building ) . The five others report to conglomerates headquartered in New York City , Philadelphia , and Tokyo . Of the Big Six , Paramount is the only one still based in Hollywood , and Paramount and Fox are the only ones still located within the Los Angeles city limits , while Disney and Warner Bros. are located in Burbank , Columbia in Culver City , and Universal in the unincorporated area of Universal City .   Most of today 's Big Six control subsidiaries with their own distribution networks that concentrate on arthouse pictures ( e.g. Fox Searchlight Pictures ) or genre films ( e.g. Sony 's Screen Gems ) ; several of these specialty units were shut down or sold off between 2008 and 2010 . The six major studios are contrasted with smaller production and/or distribution companies , which are known as independents or `` indies '' . The leading independent producer/distributors -- Lionsgate Films , The Weinstein Company , and former major studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer -- are sometimes referred to as `` mini-majors '' . From 1998 through 2005 , DreamWorks SKG commanded a large enough market share to arguably qualify it as a seventh major , despite its relatively small output . In 2006 , DreamWorks was acquired by Viacom , Paramount 's corporate parent . In late 2008 , DreamWorks once again became an independent production company ; its films were distributed by Disney 's Touchstone Pictures until 2016 , at which point distribution switched to Universal .   The Big Six major studios are today primarily backers and distributors of films whose actual production is largely handled by independent companies -- either long-running entities or ones created for and dedicated to the making of a specific film . The specialty divisions often simply acquire distribution rights to pictures in which the studio has had no prior involvement . While the majors still do a modicum of true production , their activities are focused more in the areas of development , financing , marketing , and merchandising . Those business functions are still usually performed in or near Los Angeles , even though the runaway production phenomenon means that most films are now mostly or completely shot on location at places outside Los Angeles .   Since the dawn of filmmaking , the U.S. major film studios have dominated both American cinema and the global film industry . U.S. studios have benefited from a strong first-mover advantage in that they were the first to industrialize filmmaking and master the art of mass-producing and distributing high-quality films with broad cross-cultural appeal . Today , the Big Six majors routinely distribute hundreds of films every year into all significant international markets ( that is , where discretionary income is high enough for consumers to afford to watch films ) . It is very rare , if not impossible , for a film to reach a broad international audience on multiple continents and in multiple languages without first being picked up by one of the majors for distribution .

neg: Greensman A Greensman or Greensperson or Greenskeeper is any production personnel on a film set who is responsible for obtaining and taking care of anything `` green '' -- plants , grass , trees , flowers , and other various landscaping materials like rocks , gravel , sand , etc. . Considered part of the art department .   This includes artificial forms of these materials up to and including those representing greens , such as camouflage netting .   Greens work is generally considered to be one of the dirtiest , most thankless , and physically demanding jobs in set construction . In addition to set construction greensmen often work `` on set '' assisting the camera and other departments in adjusting the set to the changing demands of different camera positions and lighting setups .   Ideally the greensman functions as a participant in the filmmaking process as an extension of the art department during set construction and in conjunction with the camera department during filming . The range of duties in this category ranges from tending to plant nursery operations ( watering , fertilizing , transplanting , etc. ) through to the artful crafting of vines , trees , flowers and the like using cut living material and various forms of artificial material .

neg: For Your Eyes Only (soundtrack) For Your Eyes Only is the soundtrack for the 12th James Bond film of the same name .   The theme song was written by Bill Conti ( music ) and Michael Leeson ( lyrics ) , and performed by Sheena Easton . The song was later nominated for both an Academy Award and Golden Globe in 1982 . Easton also made Bond film history as the first ( and , to date , only ) artist to perform the theme song on-screen during the opening title sequence .   Originally , the band Blondie was approached to write and perform the theme song for the film . They produced a song also called For Your Eyes Only that they turned in to the producers , however , this was rejected because the company wanted the Conti song and the band refused , and subsequently asked Easton to record an entirely new theme . Blondie eventually released their song on the 1982 album The Hunter . The track Make It Last All Night , performed by Rage and used for the scene at hitman Gonzales ' Spanish poolside , is notable for lyrics more suggestive than in almost any other Bond film .   The soundtrack was composed by Bill Conti , since the series ' regular composer , John Barry , was unable to work in the UK for tax reasons ( he , like many high earning Britons , had become a tax exile in the 1970s ) . Barry had recommended Conti as a possible alternative . Conti 's score is notable for its use of disco elements ( which prompted Danny Biederman to write in the liner notes to the two-CD releaseThe Best of James Bond : 30th Anniversary Limited Edition , `` Conti 's largely disco-styled score feels more like a celebration of the music of the moment than a score of durability '' ) . During the main ski chase sequence ( the track Runaway ) , Conti showed that he had versed himself in the previous Bond films ' music , as his manages to evoke memories of the music from previous ski action in both OHMSS and The Spy Who Loved Me . This , Conti 's only contribution to the series to date , was released as an album concurrent with the film 's release and later on a bootleg compact disc in combination with John Barry 's music from Octopussy . When the soundtrack was officially released on CD in the year 2000 , six bonus tracks were added that further showed Conti 's versatile approach to the film , aiding the production in its return to a tougher , more realistic James Bond . Not released but also heard in the film is a brief homage to John Williams ' familiar theme from Jaws , when an unseen underwater horror ( it is revealed to be an attacker in a J.I.M. diving suit ) approaches within the sunken ship . This was the third Bond film in a row to wittily include familiar music from a classic film . Additionally , notes from the title song to The Spy Who Loved Me , `` Nobody Does It Better '' , can be heard as the tones of a key code for a security door early in the film .

neg: Ashanti (1979 film) Ashanti ( also called Ashanti , Land of No Mercy ) is a 1979 action adventure film , produced by Georges-Alain Vuille , and directed by Richard Fleischer . Despite its impressive cast and setting ( on location in the Sahara , and in Kenya , Israel , and Sicily ) , it was widely panned by critics upon release . Michael Caine was reportedly very disappointed with the project and claims it was the third worst film along with his previous films The Magus and The Swarm ( despite appearing in other failures in the 1980s ) , after director Fleischer and co-star Beverly Johnson , were both removed from filming two-thirds of the way through the shoot . Fleischer departed after being hospitalised with sunstroke . However , an interview with Ms. Johnson included on the 2013 Severin Films Blu-ray edition of Ashanti makes no reference to these `` removals , '' suggesting that they may belong to myth .   This is one of William Holden 's final films . Both Fleischer and cinematographer Tonti had previously worked together on Barabbas ( 1961 ) .
