In the fall of 1980, she transferred to Vanderbilt University, where she was a member of the sorority Kappa Alpha Theta.

Notably, the design team was led by Dirk Meyer, who had worked as a lead engineer on multiple Alpha microprocessors during his employment at DEC. Jerry Sanders had approached many of the engineering staff to work for AMD as DEC wound down their semiconductor business, and brought in a near-complete team of engineering experts.

While in college, he became a brother of Alpha Phi Omega and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.

Since in a majority of constellations the brightest star is designated Alpha ( α ), many people wrongly assume that Bayer meant to put the stars exclusively in order of their brightness, but in his day there was no way to measure stellar brightness precisely.

Alpha 3 of Haiku was released in June 2011.

The 1999 game Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri was also created by Meier and is in the same genre, but with a futuristic / space theme.

DEC's last major attempt to find a space in the rapidly changing market was the DEC Alpha 64-bit RISC processor architecture.

Although the Alpha processor family met both of these goals, and, for most of its lifetime, was the fastest processor family on the market, it did little to affect the bottom line or repair the company's status.

In a CNN interview, John Landis said the movie was " based on Chris Miller's real fraternity at Dartmouth ", Alpha Delta Phi.

The film Alpha and Omega, which was his last movie role, was dedicated to him.

Alpha was implemented in microprocessors originally developed and fabricated by DEC.

The Alpha architecture was sold, along with most parts of DEC, to Compaq in 1998.

Alpha was born out of an earlier RISC project named PRISM, itself the final product of several earlier projects.

The main contribution of Alpha to the microprocessor industry, and the main reason for its performance, was not so much the architecture but rather its implementation.

The first version, the Alpha 21064 or EV4, was the first CMOS microprocessor whose operating frequency rivalled higher-powered ECL minicomputers and mainframes.

The Alpha architecture was intended to be a high-performance design.

In the Alpha architecture, a byte was defined as an 8-bit datum, a word as a 16-bit datum, a longword as a 32-bit datum, a quadword as a 64-bit datum and an octaword as a 128-bit datum.

In September 2001 the opposition leader Alpha Condé was imprisoned for endangering state security, though he was pardoned 8 months later.

Gamers that year had a choice between a new game with the Civilization name but no involvement of Sid Meier ; and a " space "- themed civilization game without the name but clearly designed by the same team ( Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri ).

Alpha, originally known as Alpha AXP, is a 64-bit reduced instruction set computer ( RISC ) instruction set architecture ( ISA ) developed by Digital Equipment Corporation ( DEC ), designed to replace the 32-bit VAX complex instruction set computer ( CISC ) ISA and its implementations.

< tt > MMIX </ tt > ( pronounced em-mix ) is a 64-bit RISC architecture designed by Donald Knuth, with significant contributions by John L. Hennessy ( who contributed to the design of the MIPS architecture ) and Richard L. Sites ( who was an architect of the Alpha architecture ).

However, according to DS9 episode " One Little Ship ", in the case of " Alphas " ( Jem ' Hadar bred in the Alpha Quadrant and designed specifically for combat there ), the Founders decided to dismiss this ritual.

MIPS, PA-RISC, ETRAX CRIS, SuperH, and SPARC are RISC architectures that each have a single branch delay slot ; PowerPC, ARM, and the more recently designed Alpha do not have any.

Alpha is a true spaceship, designed for travel from Earth orbit to the Moon and back.

In 2373, Rom designed and distributed a self-replicating minefield that blocked access to the Bajoran wormhole and prevented Dominion reinforcements from entering the Alpha Quadrant for several months.

The Alpha Black ( also " U. S. Army Alpha Black ", or the " Bravo One " in Canada ) is a marker designed in partnership with, and fully licensed for, the U. S. Army-and is used by soldiers for training.

In 1917, she moved to her Irvington-on-Hudson, New York estate, Villa Lewaro, which had been designed by Vertner Tandy, the first licensed black architect in New York State and a founding member of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity.

As an alternative to the standard Alpha course, the Alpha organisation runs a number of courses designed for specific demographics:

Alpha in the US operate a ' Faithbased Re-Entry Initiative ', designed to rehabilitate offenders by living a godly life within a special prison unit.

The Alpha Course is designed to present a unifying Christian vision, and as such it does not cover specifically Catholic doctrine.

In conjunction with Youth for Christ, Alpha International produces two study programs designed for children aged 11 – 14, exploRE: The Christian Faith a 12-week programme on the Christian faith, and exploRE: The Life of Jesus, a 14-lesson study of Jesus ' birth, life, death and resurrection.

Two programming languages, Alpha and Beta ( not be confused with Simula-inspired BETA programming language ) were designed for programming it, and IBM provided a compiler for the former around the time the machine was delivered.

He was noted for the use of vinyl and plastic in clothes, and he designed the Moonbase Alpha uniforms on the British science-fiction television series Space: 1999 ( 1975 – 1977 ).

In contrast to the VAX and the later DEC Alpha architectures, the DECstation 3100 and family were specifically designed and built to run a UNIX system, Ultrix, and no version of the VMS operating system was ever released for DECstations.

* Alpha Delta Omega ( ADO ): an organization for women designed to encourage the development of its membership primarily through personal services to students and others.

It is designed to be easily portable and supports a wide range of hardware platforms ( IA-32, Itanium, DEC Alpha, IBM ESA / 390, PowerPC ).

He had been working on a way to rebuild Autobots into configurations truly designed for battle, and was convinced to first employ it on Pax, who was rebuilt into Optimus Prime, to whom Alpha Trion gave the Matrix.
