Japanese ship namingconventions are different from those in the West. Japanese warships have never been named after people. Prior to World War II , Japanese ship namingconventions underwent several changes before being settled. Merchant ships The word Nihongo maru meaning circle is often attached to Japanese ship names. The first ship known to follow this convention was the Nippon Maru, flagship of daimyo Toyotomi Hideyoshi s 16th century fleet. There are several theories which purport to explain this practice The most common is that ships were thought of as floating castle s, and the word referred to the defensive circles or maru that protected the castle. That the suffix maru is often applied to words representing something that is beloved, and sailors applied this suffix to their ships. That the term maru is used in divination and represents perfection or completeness, or the ship as a small world of its own. A legend of Hakudo Maru , a celestial being that came to earth and taught humans how to build ships. It is said that the name maru is attached to a ship to secure celestial protection for it as it travels. For the past few centuries, only non warships bore the maru ending. It was intended to be used as a good hope naming convention that would allow the ship to leave port, travel the world, and return safely to home port hence the complete circle arriving back to its origin unhurt. Today commercial and private ships are still named using this convention. Warships Early conventions When the Imperial Japanese Navy was formed the Minister of the Navy of Japan Ministry of the Navy submitted potential ship names to the Emperor of Japan Emperor for approval. During the early years ships were often donated by the Shogunate or Japanese clans and the original clan names ...

The Leiden Conventions are an established set of rules, symbols, and brackets used to indicate the condition of an Epigraphy epigraphic or Papyrology papyrological text in a modern edition. In previous centuries of classical scholarship, scholars who published texts from inscriptions, papyri, or manuscripts used divergent conventions to indicate the condition of the text and editorial corrections or restorations. The Leiden meeting was designed to help to redress this confusion. The earliest form of the Conventions were agreed at a meeting of classical scholars at the University of Leiden in 1931, and published in an article shortly thereafter. ref See Groningen 1932 and cf. Hunt 1932 these articles are part of the proceedings of the XVIIIe Congr s International des Orientalistes.

For the 1788 convention that ratified the U.S. Constitution Virginia Ratifying Convention The Virginia Conventions were a series of five political meetings in the Colony of Virginia during the American Revolution . Because the House of Burgesses had been dissolved in 1774 by Royal Governor John Murray, 4th Earl of Dunmore Lord Dunmore , the conventions served as a revolutionary provisional government until the establishment of the independent Virginia Commonwealth of Virginia in 1776. First through fourth conventions The first convention was organized after Lord Dunmore dissolved the House of Burgesses when that body called for a day of prayer as a show of solidarity with Boston, Massachusetts , following the Boston Port Act . The Burgesses moved to Raleigh Tavern to continue meeting. The Burgesses declared support for Massachusetts and called for a congress of all the colonies, the Continental Congress . The Burgesses, operating as the first convention, on August 1, 1774, met and elected representatives to the Virginia convention, banned commerce and payment of debts with Britain, and pledged supplies and support to Boston. The second convention opened in Richmond and met at St. John s Episcopal Church, Richmond, Virginia St. John s Church on March 20, 1775. At the convention, Patrick Henry proposed arming the Virginia militia and delivered his give me liberty or give me death give me liberty or give me death speech to rally support for the measure. The third convention met in July 1775 after Dunmore had fled the capital and taken refuge on a British warship. The convention created a Committee of Safety American Revolution Committee of Safety to take over governance in the absence of Dunmore. The convention also divided Virginia into 16 military districts and resolved to raise regular regiments. The fourth convention denounced Dunmore and declared that Virginians were ready to defend themselves against every species of despotism. Fifth convention The fifth conventi ... more details

Cleanup date August 2010 There are many conventions used in the robotics research field. This article summarises these conventions. Line representations Main Line coordinates Lines are very important in robotics because They model joint axes a revolute joint makes any connected rigid body rotate about the line of its axis a prismatic joint makes the connected rigid body translate along its axis line. They model edges of the polyhedral objects used in many task planners or sensor processing modules. They are needed for shortest distance calculation between robots and obstacles Non minimal vector coordinates A line math L p,d math is completely defined by the ordered set of two vectors a point vector math p math , indicating the position of an arbitrary point on math L math one free direction vector math d math , giving the line a direction as well as a sense. Each point math x math on the line is given a parameter value math t math that satisfies math x p td math .

So math p math is orthogonal to math d math Pl cker coordinates Arthur Cayley and Julius Pl cker introduced an alternative representation using two free vectors. This representation was finally named after Pl cker. br The Pl cker representation is denoted by math L pl d,m math .

Refimprove date July 2007 Unlike their full service marketing counterparts, naming firms specialize entirely in the linguistic art science of creating product and company names. Currently there are about 50 naming firms globally. ref dmoz Business Marketing and Advertising Branding NamingNaming Firms ref Naming has become big business, with some larger companies investing upwards of 500,000 to create a new brand name. One of the big drivers has been pharmaceutical corporations with their growing pipeline of new medicines, each needing its own place in the market. This demand, combined with stringent naming criteria of the Food and Drug Administration United States U.S. Food and Drug Administration FDA , has caused many in the health care field to look for expert assistance. In addition available domain names have become increasingly scarce, with over 85 million names registered as of 2005. This places an additional brand burden on emerging internet based firms. Typically, naming firms used to charge anywhere from US 30,000 to US 80,000 or more to develop a company or product brand name . This will often include the creation of a list or multiple lists of brand name candidates, suggested tag lines or positioning statements, the domain name status of each name, and depending on the firm , logo design corporate identity. The fees may also include market research and consumer focus group testing. Many naming firms will also provide trademark services as part of their process.
