Talk:Conlang/Beginner/Writing

Shorten
Maybe this article should be shortened, and some of the material moved to an Intermediate Conscripting article. --Jim Henry 22:21, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

 * I tentativly agree. Any ideas on which topics to move? -- Ingolemo 19:08, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Probably most of the material in the "Glyphs" section, and the bit about boustrophedon in the "Writing Direction" section. Also the "now you can write in your own script" bit. --Jim Henry 21:14, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

 * I should mention that I'm a little wary of editing this article myself due to an off-wiki incident that I don't want to get into. But, by all means, go ahead yourself. - Ingolemo 18:43, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Recommendation
The Beginner section is supposed to avoid overwhelming the novice with details and technical terms. I'm not going to prune right now, because Intermediate/Writing is itself in trouble, and it seems prudent to wait to prune here until after one can compare this to a stable version of that. At a minimum, though, the terms for different types of scripts (abugidas, etc.) don't belong here, and the detailed identifications of different examples are a bit overwhelming too. If there are parentheticals under the script type bullets at all, they should probably be short and sweet, like they were a year or more ago. (The introduction of the distinction between Japanese kana and kanji, which looked like such a reasonable step at the time since one certainly doesn't want misinformation in the Beginner section, seems to have been where these parentheticals started down the slippery slope to where they are now.) Pi zero (talk) 13:00, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Okay, I've done the "minimum", lopping off the technical terms and detailed examples from the types of scripts. Pi zero (talk) 00:26, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Writing in Circles?
Near the end there is a reference to Ogham being written in a circle, yet I find no reference to that in the Wiki article. Can we get an editor to either fix the mention here or add the relevant info there?

Thanks, Westley Turner (discuss • contribs) 21:08, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Capricornio (rocket)

Capricornio was a Spanish satellite launch vehicle developed by the Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA) in the 1990s. It was intended to be Spain's first launcher.

Work on Capricornio started in 1990, INTA choosing to pursue a three-stage configuration. In concept, the launcher was to be a low-cost solution capable of placing up to 70 kg payloads, such as microsatellites, into 600 km polar orbits, or alternatively 60 to 140 kg payloads into low Earth orbit. In conjunction, INTA sought to establish the El Hierro Launch Centre from which it envisioned Capricornio being launched on a commercial basis.

There were allegations that aspects of Capricornio's design, such as its guidance system, had been derived from Condor missile developed by Argentina during the 1980s.

The Capricornio programme involved three phases, starting with the development of suitable rocket motors, progressing to the use of Capricornio's second and third stages together as the Argo sounding rocket, and finally the flight of the fully-assembled rocket itself. The first test launch of Capricornio, which was at one point scheduled to take place sometime in 1999, was never conducted as the programme was put on hold one year prior. The Capricornio program was formally cancelled during 2000 amid alleged foreign political pressure, competition from other launchers, and INTA's desire to focus on other endeavours.

Development
Studies into what would later become Capricornio commenced at the Spanish aerospace firm Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA) during 1990. The initiative built on ideas that the company had been considering as early as 1961. Multiple different configurations were examined prior to the selection of a three-stage launch vehicle. This vehicle, weighing 14,000 kg and standing at a height of 11 meters, was deemed sufficient for the launching of microsatellites weighing between 50-100 kg into low Earth orbit (LEO). Throughout the 1990s, INTA worked on the programme, which received the name Capricornio, intending for the launcher to be operated as a purely civilian initiative that would be operated on a commercial basis.

The programme was supported by several parallel endeavours by INTA. One such effort, for which INTA collaborated with both the INSA and the American aerospace firm Lockheed Martin, examined the prospective development of a suitable launch range for small satellite launchers in the Canary Islands, now known as the El Hierro Launch Centre. The Capricornio programme encountered some controversy over allegations that it could be adapted into a medium-range ballistic missile and used for military purposes; furthemore, that the rocket had incorporated elements of the Argentinian Condor missile. Spain was heavily involved in the destruction of these missiles, and it was speculated that this arrangement led to Spain obtaining their guidance apparatus; however, Argentinian officials disputed these claims, stating that the guidance systems had been removed prior to even arriving in Spain.

The first phase of activity on the Capricornio programme centred upon the development of solid motors, which included the use of both the INTA-100 and INTA-300 sounding rockets from the El Arenosillo test range in southern Spain. During June 1997, it was announced that the American manufacturer Thiokol was to supply the Castor 4B solid rocket motor that would power the first stage of Capricornio. For the second phase of the programme, it was intended to use both the second and third stages of Capricornio as the Argo sounding rocket; it was originally planned to fly sometime in late 1998 or early 1999.

The third phase of the Capricornio programme involved all the work necessary to achieve the first launch of the complete Capricornio rocket. At one point, it had been intended for this first flight to be conducted from El Hierro. Capricornio was reportedly scheduled to take flight sometime in late 1999 or 2000, and was to have carried a pair of small satellites: Nanosat 01 (developed by the Polytechnic University of Madrid) and Venus (Polytechnic University of Madrid and other universities in Mexico and Argentina).

However, Capricornio would never actually fly. Development of the launcher had been formally suspended during 1998, one year prior to the planned launch; one claimed reason for this outcome was that INTA had decided to redirect its resources into other endeavours. The development of Capricornio had been opposed by the United States, and thus it is suspected that the programme had been shelved for political reasons. The aerospace author Brian Harvey, speculated the competition from Arianespace's Vega launcher had made the role of Capricornio less clear.

Configuration
Three-stage solid propellant launcher. Overall length of 18.25 m, body diameter of 1.0 m and weighs 15,035 kg at launch.

 * Stage 1 contained a single Thiokol Castor 4B rocket motor with HTPB-based composite solid propellant.
 * Stage 2 contained a single Deneb-F rocket motor.
 * Stage 3 contained a single Mizar-B rocket motor.

Cookbook:Brown Sugar

| Sweeteners | Sugar

Brown sugar is a soft sugar whose crystals are covered by a film of refined molasses.

Production
Historically, brown sugar referred to less-refined sugar where the molasses is not completely removed. However, this is rarely the case currently, and modern brown sugar is typically made by combining refined white sugar and molasses in precise quantities. This can either be achieved by cooking white sugar with molasses and recrystallizing the mixture, or by simply mixing the sugar and molasses together.

Characteristics
Brown sugar is brown in color and has a more complex flavor than white sugar due to the added molasses. Dark brown sugar has more added molasses while light brown sugar has less. It consists primarily of sucrose, with some glucose and fructose—these make the brown sugar hold onto more environmental moisture, so it is stickier and clumpier than white sugar. Because of the added molasses, brown sugar is slightly acidic, which is useful when using baking soda as a leavener.

Selection and storage
Because brown sugar varies in molasses content and crystal size depending on the manufacturer, select the kind of brown sugar most appropriate for your dish. It should be stored at room temperature in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out. If it does dry out and become hard to scoop, you can soften it in the microwave or oven and knead in a little water if desired.

Use
Brown sugar can be used in the same ways as white granulated sugar, and it can be exactly substituted by weight. Do note that it will impact the flavor and texture of the final product. For example, it will add a more complex flavor, cause baked goods to brown faster, and may increase the spread of things like cookies.

A brown sugar substitute can be made at home by massaging together white granulated sugar and molasses (not sorghum). The molasses should make up 3–10% of the final weight, depending on the desired characteristics. When measuring brown sugar by volume, make sure to pack it well into the measuring utensil.

Overview

 * There are three ways to create simple film scores for motion pictures using GarageBand. Musical sounds can be either:

 * individual notes and cords, or

 * musical rhythm, or

 * musical melody.

The first way is the simplest

 * In this lesson, we will start learning film scoring by learning how to create musical sound effects using individual notes or cords.

 * style="width: 40%; background-color: Lavender; border: 1px solid #777777; vertical-align: top; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 8px; height: 200px;" |

Introduction
One of the simplest ways to create moods is with single notes or cords. This works only if the sound is so fantastic, it creates the correct mood.
 * Creating moods with individual notes

You do not need to be a musician if you use very organic sounds such as the sounds of a symphony orchestra. If you use the sounds of a symphony orchestra, people automatically think you have musical talent.
 * The secret : Organic notes

The only economical way for a low budget filmmaker to create the sounds of a symphony orchestra is with software instruments that live inside your computer.
 * Good news : Really cheap orchestra

The grand theory of film scoring
Music creates all of the mood for a motion picture. The visual images and the words of the actors do not tell the audience what to feel. Only the music explains the emotion of the scene. The four kinds of music in a motion picture are: Of the four kinds of music in film scores, music which narates the story is the most important. Because the music which narrates the story will drown out any dialog, the editor must add gaps between the dialog. That is, between the sentences or ideas in a motion picture.
 * Four kinds of music
 * Narrative music
 * Background music
 * Songs
 * The melody line of the actor's voices.
 * Music that tells a story
 * Sources of narrative music for motion pictures
 * Organic sounds - As typified by the "sound of fear" from this lesson.
 * Rhythm - As typified by the "sound of joy" which is the next lesson.
 * Melody - For non-musicians, melody comes from midi files of classical music and broadway music. For non-musicians, this is where all your skills of "cut & paste", simplify, and organize are put to the test.
 * Editing for narrative music in a conversation

Since the film's editor and the film's composer must work closely together, it is easier for the composer and the editor to be the same person. That can be you!
 * style="width: 50%; background-color: OldLace; border: 1px solid #777777; vertical-align: top; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 8px;" rowspan="2" |

What software is required?

 * First, you need special software.
 * By using Apple's GarageBand plus Jam Pack:Symphony Orchestra (or MOTU's Symphonic Instrument which I have not tested), you can create fantastic musical sound effects for motion pictures. A single musical sound can be enough to create the mood for the scene.

 * Note : There are alternative musical instruments.
 * If you do not have Jam Pack: Symphony Orchestra, there are other notes which can create the sound of fear. Try all the different software instruments until you find a good one.

 * Third, you need to shape the volume of the sound.
 * Once you have recorded the single note of a violin trill, using the volume track, create points which shape the volume of the sound so it seems like a real violin playing a real violin trill.

 * Extra credit : You can add more tracks with additional sounds.
 * You might enhance this sound with other sounds from Jam Pack: Symphony orchestra. Try some of the percussion sound effects in the orchesta drum kit.

 * When you are finished, send the sound file to me
 * Export your sound and send me your finished sound file.  [[Image:Crystal Clear app xfmail.png|24px]]

 * Ogg's the prefered file format for Wikiversity.
 * I will convert your sound file into an ogg sound file and upload it to this site for everyone to hear your sound of fear.

 * Other fearful sounds
 * Besides the violin trill, there are other sounds in GarageBand which can produce the sound of fear. Again, submit your best sounds to me.  [[Image:Crystal Clear app xfmail.png|24px]]

Niu Jin

Niu Jin (fl.  208–238) was a military general serving under the warlord Cao Cao during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. He continued serving in the state of Cao Wei, founded by Cao Cao's successor Cao Pi, during the Three Kingdoms period of China.

Life
Niu Jin participated in the Battle of Jiangling of 208, during which he volunteered to lead 300 horsemen to attack the enemy, but was only saved by Cao Ren when he got surrounded.

Years later, he participated in the counter-attack against the invading Shu forces in 231 and scored a victory over Zhuge Liang's unit, and pursued him to Mount Qi. In 234, he soundly defeated the Shu general Ma Dai on the battlefield and killed thousands of enemies. In 238, he followed Sima Yi on his campaign against Gongsun Yuan and was promoted to General of the Rear (後將軍).

However, Niu Jin's accomplishments in his later years had only earned him the apprehension from the Simas, thus he was ordered to commit suicide by drinking poison. The exact reasons for his death as well as the year he died remain disputed. The Yuan Shi Juan states that the incident happened "after the Year of the Horse " and that Niu Jin was poisoned by drinking toxic wine. Other records state that it was because Niu Jin committed adultery with one of the Sima relatives and was assassinated with poison arrows "during the Year of the Cow". This account is somewhat supported by Wei's records as they state that an illegitimate child was born in the Sima family. A story from unknown origin also states that Niu Jin was killed since he was actually a distant relative of the former emperor; his death date and the accuracy of this statement are difficult to verify.

In Romance of the Three Kingdoms
In the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Niu Jin was one of Cao Ren's subordinates. He chased Gan Ning back to Yiling during the battle of Jiangling, but was surrounded by reinforcements led by Zhou Yu, and was ultimately defeated. Niu Jin then regrouped and planned a night attack on Zhou Yu's camp, but in the end he was once again beaten, suffering another great loss.

Unfold the Future

Unfold the Future is the seventh studio album by the progressive rock band The Flower Kings, which was released in 2002. It is also the band's third studio double-CD. A limited special edition of the album contained an instrumental bonus track.

This album is the first appearance of both drummer Zoltan Csörsz, replacing the original member Jaime Salazar, and Pain of Salvation's frontman Daniel Gildenlöw, the latter as a guest vocalist on several tracks.

The style of the album shows several influences of jazz music and experimentation, with the inclusion of two free-form jams (or three, counting the special edition bonus track), along with the band's traditional symphonic progressive rock style.

In 2017, the album was remixed and reissued on vinyl. The 2017 version was also included in the box set A Kingdom of Colours: The Complete Collection from 1995–2002.

Disc Two
Note: For the 2017 reissue, "Devil's Playground" has a reduced running time of 19:02.

Main band

 * Tomas Bodin – keyboards
 * Hasse Bruniusson – marimba, glockenspiel, dulcimer, other percussion
 * Zoltan Csörsz – drums
 * Hasse Fröberg – vocals, guitars
 * Jonas Reingold – bass guitar
 * Roine Stolt – vocals, guitars, keyboards

Guest musicians

 * Daniel Gildenlöw – backing vocals, lead vocals on "Fast Lane", "Rollin' the Dice" and parts of "Devil's Playground"
 * Ulf Wallander – soprano saxophone
 * Anders Bergcrantz – trumpet

Pupil premium

The pupil premium is a grant given by the government to schools in England to decrease the attainment gap for the most disadvantaged children, whether by income or by family upheaval. For each pupil who is eligible for free school meals, or has claimed free school meals in the last six years, their school receives £1,345 (if a primary school) or £955 (if a secondary school).

Schools receive an extra premium of £2,345 for pupils:
 * in local authority care
 * adopted from care (and the parent self-declares)
 * were in care in the last year, which ceased by virtue of a special guardianship order (and the guardian self-declares), residence order or Child Arrangement Order.

Service children also receive an allocation of £310, if a parent is serving in the armed forces or is in receipt of a service pension.

The pupil premium was in the 2010 Liberal Democrat manifesto and it was introduced in 2011 by the Conservative—Liberal Democrat coalition government, with the Liberal Democrats being the primary advocate for it, at £488 per pupil. It increased to £600 per pupil in 2012–13 and eligibility was extended to pupils who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years (known as the 'Ever 6' Free School Meals measure).

Disadvantaged pupils
Disadvantaged pupils are defined by Ofsted as those who were eligible for free school meals (FSM) at any time during the last 6 years and children looked after (in the care of the local authority for a day or more or who have been adopted from care).

Audit
Schools in receipt of the pupil premium grant are required to account for its use and report this on their websites, and with specific reference to how it is used to help disadvantaged pupils, as part of the OFSTED inspection framework. Ofsted will recommend that a school should conduct an independent pupil premium review if, as a result of a section 5 inspection, it has identified specific issues regarding the provision for disadvantaged pupils.

Effectiveness
The Department for Education published an evaluation of the introduction of the pupil premium by the University of Manchester and Newcastle University in 2013 which reviewed how schools were identifying and targeting disadvantaged pupils for support.

The think tank Demos published an analysis in January 2015. They claim that, since 2011, for free school meals-eligible pupils, whose number has grown significantly, the attainment gap has widened, whereas it has narrowed for those in local authority care. It noted the number of free school meal-eligible pupils who achieved 5 GCSEs (including English and Mathematics) at grades A*-C was 33.7%, compared to 60.7% for non-eligible students (as at the first-round Summer 2014 results); with lower relative attainment by 27 percent of such students. It added the gap widened by 0.3% since 2013. This follows a similar widening in its previous report. However it noted in the same period overall attainment has increased significantly.

The Department for Education has disputed Demos' analysis, its spokesman stating: "It is nonsense to say that the attainment gap is widening. The 2014 results – when analysed with our more informative and accurate measure – show the gap has narrowed by almost 4 per cent since 2012, the year after the pupil premium was introduced." The Sutton Trust reviewed the impact of the introduction of the pupil premium in 2015.

Kawasaki KV100

The KV100 A (A7-A13) series and B (B1-B14) series were street legal 99.7 cc Kawasaki motorcycles manufactured from 1976 through 1988.

The motorcycles were designed mainly for the agricultural market. The KV100 was a dirt or trail motorcycle powered by a single cylinder, two-stroke, rotary disc valve engine with a displacement of 99.7 cc and producing 11.5 hp at 7500 rpm. Turn signals and indicators were optional, along with special guards for the headlight, handlebars, engine, and chain. It had a pack rack and an optional holder for a long-handled shovel. Some models had a hi/low 10-gear system.

The KV100 A7, produced in 1976, had a red fuel tank and chrome fenders in the front and back. They were available in various colors (yellow, white, blue, and green). Plastic mudguards were used around 1982.

The KV100 series is made up of parts from G3, G4, and G5 models of the same era, which used the same frame or engine. Those were sold in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. In Australia and New Zealand, those were marketed by stock agents. The KV100 series has also been seen in Thailand and some countries in Africa, such as Zimbabwe.

Brachyspira pilosicoli draft
B. pilosicoli attaches in an end-on manner to the mucosal epithelium of the large intestine and interferes with water absorption in this portion of the GI tract. This end-on attachment of spirochetes to the colonic enterocytes creates the appearance of a "false brush border" and is a common feature in spirochetosis in all animal species. Experimental infections in pigs have also shown invasion of and degeneration of epithelial cells in addition to surface colonization of enterocytes. Inflammation of the mucosa due to spirochete attachment may lead to a thickened mucosa, focal lesions with an exudate of mucus and white blood cells, and dilated colonic crypts. This disruption to the colonic enterocytes and associated microvilli causes the symptoms of diarrhea and slow growth that are characteristic of intestinal spirochetosis. However, there may be variability in the characteristics of colonization and severity of infection in different individuals and between species, such as purely end-on attachment and microvilli disruption versus invasion and destruction of enterocytes in different species and severity of infection. For instance, diet may affect degree of colonization and disease, and disease can vary from subclinical disease to severe. Originally thought to be non-invasive in humans, attaching to just the luminal surface of the intestinal mucosa, more recent studies have found that there can be cell destruction associated with intestinal spirochetosis in humans. Cases of more severe diarrhea are associated with heavier spirochete burden, increased cell destruction, and blunted microvilli.

Although virulence factors in Brachyspira pilosicoli have not been extensively characterized, various surface proteins have been identified that are known to be linked to virulence in other bacterial species and which may allow colonization of the intestinal mucosa by B. pilosicoli. These include proteins involved in chemotaxis and motility, hemolysins involved in damage to enterocytes and subsequent inflammation, ankyrin-like proteins that can enter host cells and allow interaction of bacteria with host cells. No secreted proteins were found that could contribute to virulence like are seen in some other Brachyspira species. In general, the virulence factors within genus Brachyspira are involved primarily in chemotaxis and motility (B. pilosicoli exhibits chemotaxis towards mucin and has flagella which allows penetration of mucus and interaction with the enterocytes), adherence and invasion (B. pilosicoli attaches end-on without disrupting enterocyte membrane to create "false brush border" but can also invade crypts and epithelium), hemolysis (B. pilosicoli may be weakly beta-hemolytic which can contribute to cytotoxicity to host cells and lesions; hemolysins also aid in obtaining nutrients such as cholesterol and phospholipids from host cells). Lipooligosaccharides in the cell wall may be associated with mucosal inflammation. Brachyspira species do not have genes that encode any adhesins or toxins.

Late talker is a delay in spoken language that usually effects 15% of children by the age of 2 years old .These children are saying less than 50 words by this time and may have been showing signs of delayed language when they were not exhibiting any babbling at 6 months old. Evidence shows a high prevalence if there is a family history of late talkers; occurrence three times more likely in males than females and; higher prevalence in twins, especially identical twins versus fraternal twins.

Statistics/Testing Data/Purpose

Purpose of Statistical test
In general, the purpose of statistical tests is to determine whether some hypothesis is extremely unlikely given observed data.

There are two common philosophical approaches to such tests, significance testing (due to Fisher) and hypothesis testing (due to Neyman and Pearson).

Significance testing aims to quantify evidence against a particular hypothesis being true. We can think of it as testing to guide research. We believe a certain statement may be true and want to work out whether it is worth investing time investigating it. Therefore, we look at the opposite of this statement. If it is quite likely then the further study would seem to not make sense. However, if it is extremely unlikely then further study would make sense.

A concrete example of this might be in drug testing. We have a number of drugs that we want to test and only limited time, so we look at the hypothesis that an individual drug has no positive effect whatsoever and only look further if this is unlikely.

Hypothesis testing rather looks at the evidence for a particular hypothesis being true. We can think of this as a guide to making a decision. We need to make a decision soon and suspect that a given statement is true. Thus we see how unlikely we are to be wrong, and if we are sufficiently unlikely to be wrong we can assume that this statement is true. Often this decision is final and cannot be changed.

Statisticians often overlook these differences and incorrectly treat the terms "significance test" and "hypothesis test" as though they are interchangeable.

A data analyst frequently wants to know whether there is a difference between two sets of data, and whether that difference is likely to occur due to random fluctuations, or is instead unusual enough that random fluctuations rarely cause such differences.

In particular, frequently we wish to know something about the average (or mean), or about the variability (as measured by variance or standard deviation).

Statistical tests are carried out by first making some assumption, called the Null Hypothesis, and then determining whether the data observed is unlikely to occur given that assumption. If the probability of seeing the observed data is small enough under the assumed the Null Hypothesis, then the Null Hypothesis is rejected.

A simple example might help. We wish to determine if men and women are the same height on average. We select and measure 20 women and 20 men. We assume the Null Hypothesis that there is no difference between the average value of heights for men vs. women. We can then test using the t-test to determine whether our sample of 40 heights would be unlikely to occur given this assumption. The basic idea is to assume heights are normally distributed and to assume that the means and standard deviations are the same for women and for men. Then we calculate the average of our 20 men, and of our 20 women, we also calculate the sample standard deviation for each. Then using the t-test of two means with 40-2 = 38 degrees of freedom we can determine whether the difference in heights between the sample of men and the sample of women is sufficiently large to make it unlikely that they both came from the same normal population.

Aircraft/Components

There are thousands of designs and ideas about aircraft which have been developed through aviation history. Despite this some main components became permanent in every aircraft design. As fix-wing aircrafts are the most common aircrafts they will be the most studied.

Fixed-wing aircraft components
Although airplanes are designed for a variety of purposes, most of them have the same major components. The overall characteristics are largely determined by the original design objectives. Most airplane structures include a fuselage, wings, an empennage, landing gear, and a powerplant. There are many other parts as well.

Fuselage
The fuselage includes the cabin and/or cockpit, which contains seats for the occupants and the controls for the airplane. In addition, the fuselage may also provide room for cargo and attachment points for the other major airplane components. Some aircraft utilize an open truss structure. The truss-type fuselage is constructed of steel or aluminum tubing. Strength and rigidity is achieved by welding the tubing together into a series of triangular shapes, called trusses.

Empennage
The empennage (also called tail) is the rear part of the aircraft. Usually it includes the stabilizers, rudder and elevator as many other components. In fighter jets it may be constructed around the exhaust nozzle, as in some three-engine airplanes ( with the third engine in the fuselage). In commercial air crafts, the empennage is built from the cabin pressure-cone and may contain the Flight Data Recorder ("black box"), Cockpit Voice Recorder that can help tell what happened in a crash also need it there is a pressure out-flow valve.

Wings
The wings are airfoils attached to each side of the fuselage and are the main lifting surfaces that support the airplane in flight. There are numerous wing designs, sizes, and shapes used by the various manufacturers. Each fulfills a certain need with respect to the expected performance for the particular airplane. Wings may be attached at the top, middle, or lower portion of the fuselage. These designs are referred to as high-, mid-, and low-wing, respectively. The number of wings can also vary. Airplanes with a single set of wings are referred to as monoplanes, while those with two sets are called biplanes. Many high-wing airplanes have external braces, or wing struts, which transmit the flight and landing loads through the struts to the main fuselage structure. Since the wing struts are usually attached approximately halfway out on the wing, this type of wing structure is called semi-cantilever. A few high-wing and most low-wing airplanes have a full cantilever wing designed to carry the loads without external struts.

[[Image:ControlSurfaces.gif|400x400px]]
Airplane control.jpeg

As aircraft move in three dimensions, we need various control devices to control it. Fix-wing aircraft have control surfaces for each one of these dimensions. Usually, these are placed in the extremes of the aircraft (tail and wings) to get the maximum strength and response using small moving parts thanks to the lever concept.

Note that an airplane is easier to maneuver the more unstable it is. Stability can be provided by stabilizers and fuselage and wing design.

Vertical stabilizer and rudder
The vertical stabilizer functions with the same principle a wing does but being symmetrical. It is the main control surface of airplanes (fix-wing aircraft). Obviously, it has a vertical position, usually in the tail of the aircraft. There can be multiple vertical stabilizers (in large aircraft usually).

The vertical stabilizer has a moving part which is called Rudder. This acts as an aileron does in the wing. When it is moved to one or other side it produces a pressure difference over to the stabilizer since it's movement is equal to change the angle of attack of this 'wing'.

The rudder controls the Y-axis or Yaw of the plane and it is controlled from the cockpit with the pedals. In a coordinated turn, rudder and ailerons must be coordinated, but you can use rudder only to 'slide' the aircraft.

Some rudders are mixed with elevators in the same control surface, creating V-tail aircraft.

Rudder

Horizontal stabilizer and elevator
The horizontal stabilizer is the main control surface of the aircraft, mainly of airplanes (fixed-wing aircraft). It functions as a wing does, creating a second point of lift along the fuselage which provides stability to the aircraft in the Z-axis. Its function is not to provide more lift but to control the Pitch of the aircraft (by modifying the angle of attack of the wing). This is thanks to a moving part or parts called Elevators, which act like an aileron, and are controlled by the longitudinal axis of the joystick or wheel.

Obviously, the horizontal stabilizer has a horizontal position, usually in the tail of the aircraft. It can be on top of the vertical stabilizer (T-tail aircraft) or divided into two parts crossing the vertical stabilizer. Some horizontal stabilizers have no elevators but are a whole elevator (mainly in gliders, since it has better aerodynamic performance). In Canard-configuration planes, the vertical stabilizer is positioned not in the tail but in the nose of the aircraft (note that its movement to reduce or increase pitch will be inverted from the one it does when it's placed in the tail).

Sometimes, elevators are mixed with rudders in the same control surface, creating V-tail aircraft. It also can be combined with ailerons, mainly in delta-wing planes.

Elevator

Aileron
Ailerons are moving surfaces usually placed near the tips of the wings. The function of aileron is simple, by moving upwards or downwards it modifies the angle of attack of that section of the wing, sinking or lifting it. This change in the aerodynamic is due to the modification of the relative curve of the airfoil. Note that ailerons are complementary, so if one moves the other will move on the other direction in the same proportion. This improves the effect as one wing is lifted and the other sunk. Ailerons control the X-axis or roll movement of the aircraft.

Ailerons are controlled by the pilot from the cockpit, with the lateral axis of the joystick. To make coordinated turns the movement must be combined with the rudder in the same direction. In some planes ailerons are just divided elevators, being possible to use the same surface as aileron or elevator (delta-wing airplanes).

Lift control devices
As well as speed and pitch (angle of attack), there are some devices which make possible to modify the lift produced by the wing. These act on the aerodynamics of the wing, mainly on the boundary layer.

Flap
Flaps increase the wing surface or curve generating more lift with the same speed. They are commonly used on low speed operations, mainly during landings and take offs.

There are several types of flaps:
 * Plain Flap
 * Split Flap
 * Flap Zap or Slotted
 * Flap Fowler
 * Flap Multi-Fowler

Flap

Slat
A slat is a thin airfoil deployed from the leading edge of the wing. This acts as a new little wing, but its objective is not to produce lift but to generate the circulation needed for it. Slat circulation will be opposite to wing circulation reducing the highest speed of the boundary layer. This reduces the maximum lift also, making its distribution along the wing softer, but allowing the boundary layer to detach later (by reducing the adverse pressure generated in the trailing edge).

Usually, slats are used with flaps during take off and landing operations as both produce extra lift at low speed.

http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Leading-edge-device

Spoiler
Spoilers are not used for generating lift but for reducing it. They are moving surfaces which are placed vertically across the airfoil. This produces the detachment of the boundary layer earlier than usual as an adverse pressure is generated.

These devices are not very common in piston engine or turboprop airplanes but in turbojet airplanes and gliders.

Spoilers are used mainly after touch down (landing) and rarely used during the decend and approach.Speedbird 19:20, 1 April 2007 (UTC)Saif Arafa

Propeller
A propeller is a device which transmits power by converting it into thrust for propulsion of a vehicle such as an airplane, ship, or submarine though a fluid such as water or air, by rotating two or more twisted blades about a central shaft, in a manner analogous to rotating a screw through a solid. The blades of a propeller act as rotating wings, and produce force through application of both Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law, generating a difference in pressure between the forward and rear surfaces of the airfoil-shaped blades.

Piston engine
Piston engines are common four-stroke cycle engines. They are designed in particular for airplanes, so they use aviation gas and have special characteristics, but their function is very similar to a car engine. Transmission of these engines is connected to a propeller so they can provide thrust. Full details in this page end to see more option in their websites.

Jet engine
A jet engine produces thrust by compressing air and releasing it through a directed pipe or nozzle. We will study more deeply this subject in Chapter 3, but essentially an aircraft jet engine is composed of an intake chamber or valve, a fan, one or several compressors, a combustion chamber, one or several turbines and an exhaust nozzle.

The process the air suffers through a jet engine begins with the intake and initial compression, a much higher compression, combustion, discharge into turbines and release. It is common to see jet engines with one more step which is to afterburn the mixture while being released.

 * TurboJet
 * TurboFan

TurboProp
A TurboProp engine consists in a jet engine which drives a propeller. The result of this is that we have a much more reliable engine than a piston engine (as much as a jet engine) but not as complicated and big as a jet engine since we don't need the jet-blast for generating thrust but the propeller.

Cockpit
A cockpit or flight deck is the area, usually near the front of an aircraft or spacecraft, from which a pilot controls the aircraft. Most modern cockpits are enclosed, except on some small aircraft.

 * RNAV/GNSS

FMS
Flight Management System.

Communication devices
A cockpit or flight deck is the area, usually near the front of an aircraft or spacecraft, from which a pilot controls the aircraft. Most modern cockpits are enclosed, except on some small aircraft.

Hydraulic
Hydraulic systems are used to move and actuate landing gear, flaps, and brakes. Larger aircraft's use these systems also on flight controls, spoilers, thrust reversers and what not.

The reason to use hydraulics is because they are able to transmit a very high pressure or force with a small volume of fluid (hydraulic oil). power assisted brakes is one application where you will see hydraulics the most in small experimental, isa and ultralight aircrafts.

APU
The APU is a small jet engine that is used to start the larger jet engines. In airliners it's usually at the very rear of the aircraft, below the tail. Large engines are heavy and require a lot of torque to spin up, more than a starter battery can generate. So, the battery spins up a much smaller APU jet engine. High-speed bleed air from the APU is used to spin up the engine.

Once the engines are started, the APU is no longer required, but it does provide a couple of secondary functions:

-It provides cabin air and electric power before the engines are started(saving battery power).

-It provides an emergency source of electric power in the event of engine failure.

-It can start the aircraft engines mid-flight in an emergency.

Rotary-wing aircraft components
---

Gyroplane
Although gyroplanes are designed in a variety of configurations, for the most part the basic components are the same. The minimum components required for a functional gyroplane are an airframe, a powerplant, a rotor system, tail surfaces, and landing gear. An optional component is the wing, which is incorporated into some designs for specific performance objectives.

Airframe
The airframe provides the structure to which all other components are attached. Airframes may be welded tube, sheet metal, composite, or simply tubes bolted together. A combination of construction methods may also be employed. The airframes with the greatest strength-to-weight ratios are a carbon fiber material or the welded tube structure, which has been in use for a number of years.

Landing Gear
The landing gear provides the mobility while on the ground and may be either conventional or tricycle. Conventional gear consists of two main wheels, and one under the tail. The tricycle configuration also uses two mains, with the third wheel under the nose. Early autogyros, and several models of gyroplanes, use conventional gear, while most of the later gyroplanes incorporate tricycle landing gear. As with fixed wing aircraft, the gyroplane landing gear provides the ground mobility not found in most helicopters.

propeller
The propeller provides the thrust necessary for forward flight, and is independent of the rotor system while in flight. While on the ground, the engine may be used as a source of power to prerotate the rotor system. Over the many years of gyroplane development, a wide variety of engine types have been adapted to the gyroplane. Automotive, marine, ATV, and certificated aircraft engines have all been used in various gyroplane designs. Certificated gyroplanes are required to use FAA certificated engines. The cost of a new certificated aircraft engine is greater than the cost of nearly any other new engine. This added cost is the primary reason other types of engines are selected for use in amateur built gyroplanes.

Rotor
The rotor system provides lift and control for the gyroplane. The fully articulated and semi-rigid teetering rotor systems are the most common. These are explained in-depth in Chapter 5—Main Rotor System. The teeter blade with hub tilt control is most common in homebuilt gyroplanes. This system may also employ a collective control to change the pitch of the rotor blades. With sufficient blade inertia and collective pitch change, jump takeoffs can be accomplished.

Wings
Wings may or may not comprise a component of the gyroplane. When used, they provide increased performance, increased storage capacity, and increased stability. Gyroplanes are under development with wings that are capable of almost completely unloading the rotor system and carrying the entire weight of the aircraft. This will allow rotary wing takeoff performance with fixed wing cruise speeds.

Empennage
The tail surfaces provide stability and control in the pitch and yaw axes. These tail surfaces are similar to an airplane empennage and may be comprised of a fin and rudder, stabilizer and elevator. An aft mounted duct enclosing the propeller and rudder has also been used. Many gyroplanes do not incorporate a horizontal tail surface.

On some gyroplanes, especially those with an enclosed cockpit, the yaw stability is marginal due to the large fuselage side area located ahead of the center of gravity. The additional vertical tail surface necessary to compensate for this instability is difficult to achieve as the confines of the rotor tilt and high landing pitch attitude limits the available area. Some gyroplane designs incorporate multiple vertical stabilizers and rudders to add additional yaw stability.

Other aircraft components
Airships, hot-air balloons, gliders and other kind of aircraft have specific components in their designs. They can also use airplane components (renamed or non) or even devices which do the same function but are different. Anyway, all these should be studied.

Cookbook:Japanese Red Bean Buns

| Cuisines | Cuisine of Japan

During the winter season, you can see various kinds of steamed buns at every convenience store in Japan. This is known as a kind of dim sum in America and Europe. Japanese-style buns are bigger. It is good for snacks.

Sweet red bean paste

 * 3 ⅔ oz (110 g) Japanese red beans (azuki)
 * 5 ⅓ oz (150 g) granulated sugar
 * 1 tablespoons starch syrup, for shining
 * 1 dash salt

Dough

 * 1¼ oz package active dry yeast (2¼ teaspoons)
 * 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
 * 1 cup lukewarm water (40-45°C)
 * 3 cups all-purpose flour (reserve 1 tablespoon if mixing by hand)

Sweet red bean paste

 * 1) Wash the beans well.
 * 2) Place beans in a large saucepan, and add 14 oz (400 ml) water or enough to cover the beans. Bring to a boil over high heat, then drain the water. Do this step two more times to get rid of harsh flavors in the beans.
 * 3) Cover beans with water again, and simmer over low heat for 30–40 minutes, removing any scum. Add more water if it falls below the level of the beans. If the bean can be crushed easily by fingers, it is done; if not, cook more.
 * 4) Cover, remove from the heat, and steam for 10 minutes.
 * 5) Drain the beans and liquid, reserving both the liquid and beans. Set the beans aside.
 * 6) Return the bean liquid to saucepan, and add sugar and salt. Heat until the sugar and salt have dissolved, then remove from the heat.
 * 7) Transfer the beans to the pan of syrup. Let soak for 30 minutes or until sweet taste infiltrates to the beans.
 * 8) Over low heat, boil the bean mixture until it becomes thick enough to form into a ball by hand. Be careful not to burn it.
 * 9) Let it cool before using.

Dough

 * 1) In a small bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar evenly over the lukewarm water; stir until yeast dissolves. Let stand 10 minutes or until foamy.
 * 2) In large bowl or in food processor, combine flour and yeast mixture and mix well, or process 1 minute. If mixing by hand, sprinkle work surface with the reserved 1 tablespoon flour; turn dough out onto work surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
 * 3) Spray large bowl with non-stick cooking spray; place dough in bowl. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let rise until dough triples in volume, about 3 hours. Punch down and wrap in plastic until ready to use. Will keep 3 days in the refrigerator and up to 2 months in the freezer.

Heat Signature (video game)

Heat Signature is an action stealth video game developed and published in 2017 by Suspicious Developments, the studio behind 2013's Gunpoint. The player plays as a mercenary who takes on missions around a procedurally generated galaxy in order to liberate space stations. Heat Signature launched for Microsoft Windows on September 21, 2017.

Gameplay
Heat Signature is an action and stealth video game played from a top-down view. Players take control of a member of a group of space mercenaries who embarks on a variety of missions such as hijacking space vessels, stealing technology, assassinating crew members, rescuing captives, and more. Operating from a central base, mercenaries take on missions that require the player to fly the mercenary via a small shuttlecraft to a travelling ship, dock with it, and then infiltrate the ship and return to home base safely. The ultimate goal is to liberate the strongholds of each of the four factions in a randomly-generated nebula. The nebula serves as a tech tree, allowing the player, with each liberation, to unlock various items, such as guns, gadgets, explosives, or pods. Each station within the nebula also includes a defector mission, which are specially developed missions that, in a way, operate as different challenges for the player to attempt; as they offer no monetary gain, these missions are typically completed out of leisure or as a way to practice for standard missions. The layouts of the nebulae, the ships, their crew, and missions are procedurally generated, similar to games of the roguelike genre.

Normally, the game operates in real time. At any time, the player can pause the game, which then provides a menu screen that provides additional options for the player to perform, such as switching weapons, picking up or dropping inventory items, or taking remote control of the shuttle, as well as to plan their next move, such as selecting a target for their attack. This can be done indefinitely, allowing for stunts such as picking up the weapon of a fallen enemy, equipping it, and using it against another target all while in this pause screen. Thus, the game often becomes much more about prediction and somewhat turn-based strategy rather than devising and implementing tactics in real time.

Development and release
Heat Signature was developed by Suspicious Developments, a team led by former PC Gamer editor Tom Francis. Development took about three years starting around December 2013, and cost around GB£200000.

The game was released for Microsoft Windows on 21 September 2017. At the time of release, Francis knew that releasing the game was "biggest risk of [his] life", as the indie game market was saturated with titles. He had hoped to see at least half the sales that he got with Gunpoint. Within the first week, he reported that the sales of Heat Signature had exceeded those of Gunpoint, and that the game was one of the top sellers on Steam during its initial week.

Post-launch updates
After avoiding criticism of Heat Signature for two weeks after release, Tom Francis agreed with many of the caveats in the other-wise positive reviews, saying in a blog post "almost every critique I read I thought was a fair point." Three months after launch the Fair Points update was released with fixes to these issues.

To celebrate the one year anniversary of Heat Signature's launch the Space Birthday update was released. It is the largest update the game has received, spending five months in development. The update was dedicated to John Francis, Tom's father, who died during development.

Reception
Heat Signature was nominated for "Best Action Game" at IGN's Best of 2017 Awards. It was nominated for the Seumas McNally Grand Prize at the Independent Games Festival 2018.

Mehmet Topuz

Mehmet Topuz (born 7 September 1983) is a Turkish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder or right-back for Kayserispor and Fenerbahçe.

Club career
Topuz had begun his career in Yolspor, a local club located in Kayseri. He joined Kayserispor in 2000. He has been given several Golden Man of the Month awards which are presented monthly and supported by Turkey Heart Foundation. His performance at Süper Lig attracted the major clubs of Turkey. However, Kayserispor Board strongly asserted that they would not let him go and supported their intentions to keep him in the club by advertising on billboards. Afterwards, he extended his contract with the club, eventually becoming the team captain.

He was linked with Spanish side Valencia in May 2008. He played total of six games for Kayserispor in European competitions and scored two goals during their UEFA Intertoto Cup campaign in the 2006 season, in which they became the first team from Turkey to win the competition. Kayserispor qualified for the UEFA Cup and lost 4–3 on aggregate against AZ in the second round. In 2007–08 season, he played two games in UEFA Cup qualification, in which Kayserispor lost against Paris Saint-Germain 2–1 on aggregate.

After playing five years for Kayserispor, he became one of the finest Turkish talents during his time and eventually moved to Turkish giants Fenerbahçe in 2009 for a fee of €9 million + Gökhan Emreciksin following a lengthy transfer battle with fellow rival giants Beşiktaş in which he wore the Beşiktaş jersey after agreeing terms with the club. However the transfer failed when Fenerbahçe secured the deal by arranging an agreement with his club Kayserispor, making him one of the most expensive internal Turkish transfers.

Topuz scored his first goal against Twente in the first group game of UEFA Europa League from a freekick at 71st minute. Although this game tied the score, Twente scored another goal six minutes later, and sealed a 2–1 win in Istanbul.

International career
Topuz played 22 times for Turkey U21 national team and scored 2 goals. He represented the senior national team 18 times.

Honors

 * Kayserispor
 * UEFA Intertoto Cup: 2006
 * Türkiye Kupası: 2007–08

Bukit Puteri

Bukit Puteri (Jawi: بوکيت ڤوتري, English: Princess Hill) is a small hill of historical significance in Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia. It is located right in the middle of the city near the estuary of Terengganu River.

Background of the hill
Bukit Puteri is located near to Istana Maziah, one of Terengganu's palaces, the general post office, and Pasar Payang, the main market of Kuala Terengganu. At the foothill is Bazaar Warisan, a place that sells various traditional crafts and products. With a size of 0.688 hectares and a height of 20 metres above the sea level, It is located in a strategic location, overlooking the estuary of Terengganu river.

History
A myth regarding Bukit Puteri tells about a legendary princess who lived on top of the hill. The local residents always went to her to borrow utensils such as bowls, plates, or cutleries for their festive events or celebrations. However, since there were a number of people who did not return the borrowed utensils to her, the princess sulked and decided to leave the hill in search for other places where she could help people.

The hill has been in existence in the history of Terengganu since the 16th century. It was important as a lookout point in facing enemies, especially those who come from the sea. During the reign of Sultan Mansur II (1831-1836), Sultan Muhamad I (1836-1839), and Sultan Umar (1839-1876), Bukit Puteri was used as a stronghold during the civil war that occurred during those times.

Features
A number of historical artefacts and monuments are located on the top of Bukit Puteri. One of the artefacts is a brass bell or genta weighing 175 kg. This bell was made in 1908 by a craftsmen known as Wan Ali Wan Awang. The bell would be struck during calamity or to mark special occasions such as iftar during the holy month of Ramadan. A number of cannons used to found on the hill, but now only a few remains, with the most famous being the Meriam Beranak, a set of two different-sized cannons.

A flag pole approximately 18 metres tall built during the reign of Sultan Sulaiman Badrul Alam Shah and a lighthouse as a beacon to sailors on the sea were erected on the hill. A fort containing a throne was also built by Sultan Umar, with the building materials consisting of a mixture of honey, egg white, bricks, and chalk as a plaster. Other than that, a cemetery containing graves of various religious figures of Terengganu can also be found.

Philip Spiro

Philip Spiro was the head of the German printing firm of Spiro Brothers of Hamburg who from 1864 to about 1880 produced around 500 different lithographed reproductions of postage stamps.

The reproductions are not believed to have been intended to deceive, but they were so well done and so numerous that they contributed to a backlash against stamp forgery that was reflected in the publication of The Spud Papers; Or, Notes on Philatelic Weeds by the Rev. Robert Earée.

The forgeries were often produced in small sheets of 25, which are still sometimes found complete. Many old stamp collections include Spiro forgeries due to their wide distribution and a greater acceptance of forgeries as "space fillers" before 1900.

Livamol Classic

The Livamol Classic is a weight-for-age Thoroughbred horse race run at Hastings Racecourse in Hawke's Bay and was at one stage New Zealand's richest horse race. It is run at a distance of 2040 m. The race is run in October. The weather in the Hawke's Bay's means the track conditions are usually excellent.

The race is the part of the Triple Crown raced at Hastings Racecourse, along with the 1400 m Tarzino Trophy, which was previously known as the Makfi Challenge Stakes or Mudgway Stakes, and the 1600 m Arrowfield Stud Plate, which was previously known as the Windsor Park Plate, Stony Bridge Stakes and Horlicks Plate.

Many of New Zealand's best thoroughbred horses have raced in the various Triple Crown events. A number of horses managed to win two of the three races and some were beaten into second in the third leg. On 5 October 2019. Melody Belle was the first horse to win all three of the Hawkes Bay Triple Crown races.

History
The race was originally known as the Ormond Memorial and took place on the second day of the autumn carnival until the 1985/86 season when it was moved to the Spring.

From 1991 to 2009 the race was sponsored by Kelt Capital Limited, and in particular the owner thereof Sam Kelt, a strong supporter of New Zealand and particularly Hawke's Bay racing.

1996 would see it gain Group 1 status and the distance changed from 2000m to 2040m.

The growth in prize money was substantial in the decade up to 2008. In 2000 it was worth $250,000; in 2002 it was the equal richest race in New Zealand at $500,000 and in 2004 it was New Zealand's first million-dollar race. The race was worth $2,000,000 in 2007 and 2008, but the stake had to be reduced to $1,200,000 in 2009 as that level was deemed unsustainable. In 2010 the stake was reduced to $250,000, below several major races in New Zealand but still slightly ahead in terms of weight-for-age races.

In 2010, after the cessation of the Kelt sponsorship, the Ormond Memorial name was modified in recognition of Lady Katherine (Kit) Acklin née Ormond who had recently died.

Hi

I was alerted to the "Developing Wikiversity through action research" by a friend so I've arrived to learn more and contribute if I can.

I coined the phrase 'Distributed Action Research' (DAR) to describe the application of AR methodology in the online world, firstly to demonstrate to skeptics that it is indeed both possible and valid, also to begin to investigate the distinguishing features from face-to-face AR. I'm delighted that this project seems to be continuing in a similar direction.

I blog at distributedresearch.net/blog and maintain the DARnet wiki, amongst others.

I live in London at present but hope to become a nomad on a narrowboat working for PajamaNation UK, part of the global marketplace for micropreneurs.

The company headquarters are in Graz, Austria's second-largest city and capital of the federal state of Steiermark (Styria). Ranorex also has a US subsidiary, Ranorex Inc., located in Houston, Texas. As of September 2018, more than 4,000 customers in over 60 countries were using the company's flagship product, Ranorex Studio.

History
In 2004, Ranorex co-founder Jenö Herget was a programmer working on a software development team in Graz. The team wanted to automate the repetitive tasks inherent in software testing. Since Herget could find no suitable product on the market, he wrote his own testing tool. Convinced that there was a need for this type of product and assisted by his son Gabor Herget, Jenö Herget expanded the product and made it publicly-available online for free in 2006 under the name "Ranorex". Reception of this early version was positive, earning recognition at the 2006 .NET conference in Switzerland, Austria, and Germany, the BASTA. With assistance from EOSS Industries Holding GmbH, Jenö and Gabor Herget founded Ranorex in September 2007. At the time of the company founding, Ranorex was both the name of the company and of its flagship software testing product.

One year after the company's founding, 90 percent of sales were to customers outside of Austria; as a result, Ranorex was recognized by the Styrian Chamber of Commerce with the Styrian Export Award in 2008.

In October 2017, Ranorex was purchased by IDERA, Inc. for an undisclosed sum.

Recognition and awards
In December 2015, Ranorex was identified as a "niche player" in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Software Test Automation.

Ranorex was recognized as one of "Austria's Best Employers" in the small business category in 2016, and in the medium business category in 2017, by the Great Place to Work® organization.

In May 2017, the Federation of Austrian Industry listed Ranorex among 91 "IT gazelles," or fast-growing IT companies in Austria that had at least 10 employees in 2010, and experienced staff growth of at least 80 percent between 2010 and 2016.

In July 2017, Zion Market Research identified Ranorex as a key player in the global automated software testing market.

Company Structure
Ranorex is part of Idera, Inc.'s testing tools business, which also includes TestRail by Gurock and Kiuwan.
