Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Triune Understanding is a fictitious religious cult created by Kurt Busiek for volume three of the Marvel Comics Avengers comics Avengers series, based on The Church of Scientology . History The Triune Understanding was depicted as a fast growing movement claiming to maximize human potential, but gradually revealed to have connections with an invading alien race. Members included the Avengers government liaison Duane Freeman and new member Delroy Garrett Triathlon who owed his powers to the sect . After a battle between the Avengers and villains Lord Templar and Pagan, Jonathan Tremont the leader of the Triune publicly blamed the Avengers for the destruction, then covertly set up a smear campaign against the team to suggest they were religiously intolerant and racist exploiting the general lack of African American heroes in the team and hinting that they supported the mutant conspiracy. Thanks to this manipulation of the team, Captain America and Thor Marvel Comics Thor both temporarily resigned, Thor resenting the media criticism and Captain America feeling unable to lead the team against this kind of attack. The situation was made even worse when the Triune Understanding hired the Taskmaster to pose as Captain America and trick Ms. Marvel Warbird , Scott Lang Ant Man , Silverclaw , and Genis Vell Captain Marvel into destroying a Triune building. Although they saw through his deception, the building was destroyed in the ensuing battle and the heroes lacked any evidence of their story. Vance Astrovik Justice and Firestar , then members of the Avengers, went undercover inside the organization. One of the many secrets they discovered was that the group could power a spacecraft with the sheer belief of the followers. It was revealed over time that the Triune Understanding was trying to protect Earth from a mysterious threat named ... Understanding after these events is unclear.

The Men of Understanding in Latin Homines Intelligentiae is the name assumed by a heretical sect from the Catholic point of view in the Low Countries, which in 1410 11 was cited before the Inquisition at Brussels. History The sect was doctrinally related with the earlier Brethren of the Free Spirit . It taught the eventual salvation of all human beings and even of the demons, maintained that the soul of man cannot be defiled by bodily sin, and believed in a mystical state of illumination and union with God so perfect that it exempted from all subjection to moral and ecclesiastical laws and was an infallible pledge of salvation. Both its leaders, Egidius Cantoris, an illiterate layman, and the Carmelite William of Hildernissen, near Bergen op Zoom , gloried in the visions with which they claimed to have been favoured. Cantoris in a moment of religious exaltation went so far as to run nude through the streets of Brussels , declaring himself the saviour of mankind. About 1410 Peter d Ailly , Bishop of Cambrai , seems to have taken the first steps towards the suppression of the heresy. William of Hildernissen consented to a retractation, the sincerity of which appeared doubtful. In 1411, a second investigation resulted in another retractation, but also in a sentence compelling William to return permanently to an extra diocesan Carmelite monastery after three years detention in one of the episcopal castles. No information has reached us respecting the result of the inquisitorial procedure against the other members of the sect.

In computer science, an application profile is a set of metadata elements, policies, and guidelines defined for a particular application. ref name Dublin Core glossary Application profile cite web title Dublin Core metadata glossary url http dublincore.org documents 2001 04 12 usageguide glossary.shtml A accessdate 2006 06 08 ref The elements may be from one or more element sets, thus allowing a given application to meet its functional requirements by using metadata from several element sets including locally defined sets. For example, a given application might choose a subset of the Dublin Core that meets its needs, or may include elements from the Dublin Core, another element set, and several locally defined elements, all combined in a single schema. An application profile is not complete without documentation that defines the policies and best practices appropriate to the application Advantages Defines an application appropriate set of properties in a public and communicable manner. This permits the building of loosely coupled systems i.e. independent of each others detailed specification that still offer powerful capabilities. Disadvantages Narrow application scope, which may limit a profile s widespread applicability and also limits the likely synergy from re use of tools from other projects outside that scope. Compared to the Dublin Core refinement approach where a core property set may be made more specific, in a backwards compatible manner , use of application profiles requires that applications must at least recognise these profiles and their roots. Even if the profile is based simply on Dublin Core, which the application already understands, this is of no use unless the application also recognises that this profile is treatable as Dublin Core.

Unreferenced date August 2007 A workflow application is a software application which automates, at least to some degree, a process or processes. The processes are usually business related, but it may be any process that requires a series of steps that can be automated via software . Some steps of the process may require human intervention, such as an approval or the development of custom text, but functions that can be automated should be handled by the application. Advanced applications allow users to introduce new components into the operation. For example, consider a purchase order that moves through various departments for authorization and eventual purchase. The order may be moved from department to department for approval automatically. When all authorizations are obtained, the requester of the purchase order is notified and given the authorization. A workflow process may involve constant change and update. For example, the normal approver of purchase orders may be on vacation, in which case, the application will request approval from alternate approvers. Development A workflow application can be developed with any general purpose programming language , but specialized workflow languages also exist. These usually come with an associated graphical notation such as Business Process Modeling Notation BPMN , but some are textual or XML based. Specialized languages that can be used for workflow definition in this way include XPDL YAWL SCUFL The above languages are based on XML syntax while suitable for manipulation by software, they are difficult for non technical people the ones who have a deep understanding of specific business scientific processes to work with.

In computing , the term composite application expresses a perspective of software engineering that defines an application built by combining multiple existing functions into a new application. The technical concept can be compared to Mashup web application hybrid mashups . However, composite applications use business sources e.g., existing modules or even Web services of information, while mashups usually rely on web based, and often free, sources. It is wrong to assume that composite applications are by definition part of a service oriented architecture SOA . Composite applications can be built using any technology or architecture. A composite application consists of functionality drawn from several different sources. The components may be individual selected functions from within other applications, or entire systems whose outputs have been packaged as business functions, modules, or web services. Composite applications often incorporate orchestration computers orchestration of local application logic to control how the composed functions interact with each other to produce the new, derived functionality.
