As well as being the first American commercial computer, the UNIVAC I was the first American computer designed at the outset for business and administrative use ( i. e., for the fast execution of large numbers of relatively simple arithmetic and data transport operations, as opposed to the complex numerical calculations required by scientific computers ).

In most cockpits the pilot's control column or joystick is located centrally ( centre stick ), although in some military fast jets and in some commercial airliners the pilot uses a side-stick ( usually located on the outboard side and / or at the left ).

A third might be that television is currently the main medium to advertise, prompting ad campaigns by everyone from cell-phone companies, political campaigns, fast food restaurants, to local businesses, and small businesses, prompting longer commercial breaks.

Other traditional household tasks, like food preservation and preparation have been automated in large extent by moving them into factory settings, with the development of pre-made, pre-packaged foods, and in some countries, such as the United States, increased reliance on commercial food preparation services, such as fast food restaurants.

The types of music played are usually various forms of dance music with fast repetitive beats, but, due to the lack of a commercial interest, the genre chosen is often far from popular main-stream tastes and is decided purely by the tastes of the DJs who play for the sound systems putting the event on.

This has been adapted over the years to now be produced as a commercial food ingredient in many fast food products.

On the northside of town lies the North Plaza and a commercial strip of gas stations and fast food, but has since become desolate after the departure of Jamesway and the lack of any equivalent store to come into the plaza.

Portable stoves are therefore generally rated in terms of how quickly they can boil a liter ( or other appropriate size ) of water ; indeed, some commercial stove models are specifically optimized for fast boiling, with other operations such as frying or baking being an afterthought.

Extensive commercial redevelopment in the 15 Norte Avenue area, previously an abandoned industrial area, has seen most of the large Chilean retail chains settling in the area, which is now covered with large shopping malls, like Marina Arauco, cinemas, fast food stores, and supermarkets.

Klasky-Csupo also produced a number of projects in commercial advertising, including a series of direct-to-video features ( The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald ) for the McDonald's fast food chain.

Despite research having started in the 1950s, no commercial fusion reactor is expected before 2050.

* industrial demonstration: validation of the various technical options, and of the whole data needed to define a commercial reactor.

* commercial demonstration: demonstration of the reactor ability to work over a long period, while respecting all the requirements for safety, liability and cost.

In addition, he oversaw the development of the Shippingport Atomic Power Station, the world's first commercial pressurized water reactor used for generating electricity.

This twin role enabled him to both lead the effort to develop Nautilus, which was launched and commissioned in 1954, as well as oversee the development of the Shippingport Atomic Power Station, the first commercial pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant.

Unlike commercial reactors, which are surrounded by concrete, the Pluto reactor had to be small and compact enough to fly, but durable enough to survive a trip to a potential target.

For much of the last quarter of the twentieth century, Rainier was known to the rest of Oregon as home to Trojan Nuclear Power Plant, the only commercial nuclear reactor in the state, which supplied electricity to Portland and its suburbs starting in March 1976.

Production activities at the Erwin facility include preparing enriched uranium to be processed into nuclear reactor fuel, processing uranium hexafluoride into other uranium compounds, and downblending high-enriched uranium to convert it to a low-enriched form for use in commercial nuclear reactors.

Reactivity adjustment to maintain 100 % power as the fuel is burned up in most commercial PWRs is normally achieved by varying the concentration of boric acid dissolved in the primary reactor coolant.
