The R8000 ( 1994 ) was the first superscalar MIPS design, able to execute two integer or floating point and two memory instructions per cycle.

Although its FPU performance fit scientific users quite well, its limited integer performance and high cost dampened appeal for most users, and the R8000 was in the marketplace for only a year and remains fairly rare.

This processor was a single-chip design, ran at a faster clock speed than the R8000, and had larger 32 KB primary instruction and data caches.

At the time ( late 1990s ) many believed, a revamped T100 was on the way ( with the promise of a V8 engine ) and there were some reports that altered V8 powered T100s were used as test-mules, but ultimately it never came to pass, and Toyota went back to the drawing board and the Toyota Tundra came to be.

It was powered by the Aerojet Mk52 mod 2 rocket engine ( later by the Rocketdyne Mk38 mod 4 ).

The subsequent development of category theory was powered first by the computational needs of homological algebra, and later by the axiomatic needs of algebraic geometry, the field most resistant to being grounded in either axiomatic set theory or the Russell-Whitehead view of united foundations.

Collingwood succumbed first as the Dons powered their way to an 82 point first semi final victory, and a fortnight later it was the turn of the North Melbourne Football Club as Essendon won the preliminary final a good deal more comfortably than the ultimate margin of 17 points suggested.

The later prequel series Star Trek: Enterprise describes the warp engine technology as a ' Gravimetric Field Displacement Manifold ' ( Commander Tucker's tour, " Cold Front "), and describes the device as being powered by an anti-matter / matter reaction which powers the two separate nacelles ( one on each side of the ship ) to create a displacement field ( the aforementioned " bubble ") The episode also firmly establishes that many other civilizations had warp drive before humans ; First Contact co-writer Ronald D. Moore suggested that Cochrane's drive was in some way superior to forms that existed beforehand, and was gradually adopted by the galaxy at large.

Following this, the widespread adoption of ailerons rather than wing warping made aircraft much easier to control, and only a decade later, at the start of World War I, heavier-than-air powered aircraft had become practical for reconnaissance, artillery spotting, and even attacks against ground positions.
