Record 6 1994-10-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Computer Programs and Programming
  • Computer Graphics
CONT

In hypermedia, sound re-establishes the audio space of conversation, and presents the possibilities of parallel and branching narrative soundtracks, which can be presented graphically so the user can choose between them, switching from one sound-track to another. It then becomes possible to participate in choosing the direction for the evolution of a story, or to access different viewpoints on a particular subject or body of knowledge, or even to choose a preferred language from several foreign language commentaries. "Interactive audio" techniques like these are used within the context of a graphical interface that provides special screen buttons or "icons" on which the user has to click to trigger the audio sequences-so that, for example, clicking on an icon featuring the French tricolour might call up a spoken commentary in French.

OBS

Parallel computer produced by Thinking Machines (US).

DEF

Record 8 1987-01-06

English

Subject field(s)
  • Air Terminals
  • Airfields
CONT

In the Linear concept... aircraft are parked on the apron at the face of the terminals in perpendicular, angled or parallel parked positions. An airside corridor may be located parallel to the terminal face nearest the apron, with access to the terminal and aircraft gate positions at intervals. The linear configuration can be either centralized or decentralized. Ease of access and relatively short walking distances for originating passengers can result if the passenger is delivered to a point at or near his gate of departure by a vehicular circulation system(road and/or transit), which becomes a more dominant element in this concept than in the other concepts. The terminal area will be fully decentralized by locating the departure lounges, ticketing and baggage areas at each aircraft gate position.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Aérogares
  • Aérodromes
CONT

Système linéaire. Aux aérogares où seulement quelques postes de stationnement sont nécessaires, un système linéaire d'embarquement est une configuration logique (...) C'est le système habituellement utilisé aux petits aérodromes. Avec ce système, les distances de marche sont réduites.
