The project was announced on 24 April 2014 in the wake of Heartbleed, a critical security bug in OpenSSL that is used on millions of websites. OpenSSL is among the first software projects to be funded by the initiative after it was deemed underfunded, receiving only about $2,000 per year in donations. The initiative will sponsor two full-time OpenSSL core developers. In September 2014, the Initiative offered assistance to Chet Ramey, the maintainer of Bash (Unix shell), bash, after the Shellshock (software bug), Shellshock vulnerability was discovered. The CII has since been superseded by the Open Source Security Foundation.

Compagnie Internationale Pour L'informatique
Plan Calcul was a French governmental program to promote a national or European computer industry and associated research and education activities. History The plan was approved in July 1966 by President Charles de Gaulle, in the aftermath of two key events that made his government worry about French dependence on the US computer industry. In the mid-1960s, the United States denied export licenses for American-made IBM and Control Data Corporation, CDC computers to the French Commissariat à l'énergie atomique in order to prevent it from perfecting its H bomb. Meanwhile, in 1964, General Electric had acquired a majority of Groupe Bull, Compagnie des Machines Bull, the largest French computer manufacturer, which had the second highest market share in France, after IBM, and was a leading IT equipment maker in Europe. Following this partial takeover, known as "Affaire Bull", GE-Bull dropped two Bull computers from its product line. Responsibility for administering the plan was given ...

102 (one hundred [and] two) is the natural number following 101 (number), 101 and preceding 103 (number), 103. In mathematics 102 is an abundant number and a semiperfect number. It is a sphenic number. The sum of Euler's totient function φ(''x'') over the first eighteen integers is 102. 102 is the first three-digit base 10 polydivisible number, since 1 is divisible by 1, 10 is divisible by 2 and 102 is divisible by 3. This also shows that 102 is a Harshad number. 102 is the first 3-digit number divisible by the numbers 3, 6, 17, 34 and 51. oeis:A006316, 10264 + 1 is a prime number.

Software Patent
A software patent is a patent on a piece of software, such as a computer program, library, user interface, or algorithm. The validity of these patents can be difficult to evaluate, as software is often at once a product of engineering, something typically eligible for patents, and an abstract concept, which is typically not. This gray area, along with the difficulty of patent evaluation for intangible, technical works such as libraries and algorithms, makes software patents a frequent subject of controversy and litigation. Different jurisdictions have radically different policies concerning software patents, including a blanket ban, no restrictions, or attempts to distinguish between purely mathematical constructs and "embodiments" of these constructs. For example, an algorithm itself may be judged unpatentable, but its use in software judged patentable. Background A patent is a set of exclusionary rights granted by a state to a patent holder for a limited period of time, usual ...

Colour Index International
Colour Index International (CI) is a reference database jointly maintained bSDC Enterprisesand the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists. It currently contains over 27,000 individual products listed under 13,000 Colour Index Generic Names. It was first printed in 1924 but is now published solely on the Internet.

These numbers are prefixed with C.I. for example, C.I. Acid Orange 7 or C.I. 15510. (This abbreviation is sometimes mistakenly thought to be CL, due to the font used to display it.) The generic name lists first the class of dye (acid dye, disperse dye, etc.), then its hue (e.g., orange), followed by a number assigned by the Col ...

Calculated Ignition Index
The Calculated Ignition Index (CII) is an index of the ignition quality of residual fuel oil. It is used to determine the suitability of heavy fuel oil for (marine) engines. Background The effective and efficient running of internal combustion engines is dependent on the ignition quality of the fuel. Incorrect or out of specification fuel can cause problems or severe damage to the engines and associated equipment. The effects may include: corrosion, abrasive wear, clogged cylinder valves, fuel equipment damage, fuel pump failure, premature ignition, ignition failure, explosion, or engine failure. Several indices are used to characterise fuels. For spark-ignition engines the fuel has an octane rating. For diesel engines it depends on the type of fuel, for distillate fuels the cetane numbers are used. Cetane numbers are tested using a special test engine, however, the existing test engine was not intended for residual fuels. For residual fuel oil two auxiliary indexes have been d ...
