  2. Track Warrant Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track_Warrant_Control

    Track warrants are issued granting main track use between two named points (i.e. milepost sign, station, or any fixed physical point, such as a switch).The dispatcher may also issue time constraints (known as "Box 6" on a standard form), although the track warrants remain in effect until cleared by a member of the receiving crew.

  3. Plyo box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plyo_Box

    The size of the box is determined by the height of the user and the desired level of difficulty for the exercise. For example, a taller person may need a taller box for a box jump, while a smaller person may need a smaller box for a box step-up. The box is typically a rectangular box with 50 x 60 x 75 cm (20 x 24 x 30 inch) sides. [3]

  4. Plyometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plyometrics

    Box jumps: jump onto and off of a large box 18" or higher. [16] Vertical depth jump: starting from the top of a box, jump down and back up as fast as possible. [16] Plyometric push-up (plyo push-up): perform a push up, but exert enough upward force to lift the hands and body off the ground. [16] Broad jump (long jump). Pike jump. [17]

  5. AN/PRC-117 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/PRC-117

    A PRC-117 radio and SATCOM antenna. The AN/PRC-117F/G radio is currently in use with the United States Navy Seabee and EOD teams in their MRAP and JERRV vehicles. [2] The radio is also in use by the United States Marine Corps, [6] United States Army, [7] USSOCOM, [8] United States Coast Guard, United States Air Force, [9] Royal Air Force, [10] Dutch Army, Spanish Air Force, British Army ...

  6. Parachute landing fall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parachute_landing_fall

    With repeated practice by jumping from a shoulder height platform onto the ground or into a sawdust pit, parachutists can learn to make smooth falls automatically, with a reflex action. Experienced jumpers can deploy a parachute landing fall naturally during an accidental, non-parachute related fall; this has reduced or prevented injuries.

  7. Trampoline (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trampoline_(computing)

    As used in some Lisp implementations, a trampoline is a loop that iteratively invokes thunk-returning functions (continuation-passing style).A single trampoline suffices to express all control transfers of a program; a program so expressed is trampolined, or in trampolined style; converting a program to trampolined style is trampolining.

  8. Branch table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_table

    This pointer function method can result in saving one machine instruction, and avoids the indirect jump (to one of the branch instructions). The resulting list of pointers to functions is almost identical to direct threaded code, and is conceptually similar to a control table. The actual method used to implement a branch table is usually based on:

  9. Quickstart guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quickstart_guide

    This implies the use of a concise step-based approach that allows the buyer to use a product without any delay, if necessary including the relevant steps needed for installation. A quick start guide, or QSG for short, focuses on the most common instructions, often accompanying such instructions with easy-to-understand illustrations.
