La puissance des ordinateurs de quatrième génération se mesure en M.I.P.S. (million d'instructions par seconde). Pour les ordinateurs de l'Intelligence Artificielle, on emploie [...] l'inférence logique par seconde ou L.I.P.S. («logical inference per second»). Les Japonais visent des performances de l'ordre de cent millions de lips voire même le giga-lips. 4, record 1, French, - inf%C3%A9rence%20logique%20par%20seconde

La capacité de la machine à inférence sera de l'ordre de 100 Milps à 1 Gilps (ilps : inférence logique par seconde). On estime qu'une inférence, réalisée par un ordinateur actuel, nécessite de 100 à 1 000 instructions; ainsi un ilps représente de 100 à 1000 instructions par seconde. 6, record 1, French, - inf%C3%A9rence%20logique%20par%20seconde

Plan the project.... The Navigator methodology recommends that most detailed project plans cover a period of six to nine weeks. In this approach, team members develop a milestone plan based on high-level work plans and other project documents. Staff factor in resource constraints, quality issues, and project risks when developing the milestone plan. Staff develop detailed plans for the next six weeks. Every four weeks after that, staff develop a new six-week detailed schedule. This technique minimizes the wasted work of project planning too far in advance and focuses the project team on milestone achievement. 3, record 3, English, - milestone%20plan

La gestion de projets s'effectue à deux niveaux avec une philosophie basée sur une approche collaboratrice et un souci permanent d'éviter la bureaucratie au moyen de rapports condensés. [...] L'organisation mère définit le déroulement du projet ainsi que les autres unités impliquées. Il s'agit en fait d'un contrat entre le management et le projet qui se matérialise au travers de deux documents : Le «Milestone Plan» comprend la liste des grands résultats intermédiaires entre le début et la fin du projet. Il apporte une certaine visibilité au management et permet de se concentrer sur les buts et les points de contrôle. Le «Project Responsibility Chart» décrit l'organisation des unités, les compétences, les dates limites, les premières estimations, etc. Pour chaque milestone, il est précisé le rôle des différents intervenants même s'ils sont hors projet, une estimation de la charge de travail et de son séquencement dans le temps. 2, record 3, French, - %C3%A9ch%C3%A9ancier%20des%20objectifs%20interm%C3%A9diaires

The line of balance(LOB) technique is a charting technique for monitoring assembly line progress. The four inputs which are required for an LOB chart are(1) the production plan, showing the key-milestone events of the production process;(2) the cumulative schedule of time to reach each milestone;(3) the production progress, recorded on a vertical Gantt bar chart; and(4) the line of balance, which is a stairstep line obtained by calculating the cumulative number of units which must be completed to meet the schedule for each milestone. 2, record 4, English, - line%20of%20balance%20technique
