The Élan was a popular snowmobile variant of Ski-Doo built by Bombardier from 1971 to 1996. They were offered a rather large variety of options including 1 or 2-cylinder engines, different designs on the hood, and other choices. In 1971 the Elans originally came with Rotax engines 250cc (247cc) single-cylinder rated at 12 hp which had the options of having an electric start as well as a recoil starter. In 1973, they introduced 2 new engines, a 250cc (247cc) twin-cylinder rated at 16 hp had a standard muffler and a single HR carb, and the ''SS'' model that was a 250 (247cc) twin-cylinder rated at 22 hp with dual HR carbs, tuned exhaust, disc brake, and new standard chrome bumper. Because of its basic, cheap design, the Élan was long popular with hunters, trappers, and those living in the far north, where certain repair parts (such as a CDI) for other newer sleds could fail, would be harder to obtain, and could leave their riders stranded.

ELAN Software
ELAN is computer software, a professional tool to manually and semi-automatically annotate and transcribe audio or video recordings. It has a tier-based data model that supports multi-level, multi-participant annotation of time-based media. It is applied in humanities and social sciences research ( language documentation, sign language and gesture research) for the purpose of documentation and of qualitative and quantitative analysis. It is distributed as free and open source software under the GNU General Public License, version 3. ELAN is a well established professional-grade software and is widely used in academia. It has been well received in several academic disciplines, for example, in psychology, medicine, psychiatry, education, and behavioral studies, on topics such as human computer interaction, sign language and conversation analysis, group interactions, music therapy, bilingualism and child language acquisition, analysis of non-verbal communication a ...

ELAN (programming Language)
ELAN is an interpreted educational programming language for learning and teaching systematic programming. It was developed in 1974 by C.H.A. Koster and a group at the Technical University of Berlin as an alternative to BASIC in teaching, and approved for use in secondary schools in Germany by the "Arbeitskreis Schulsprache". It was in use until the late 1980s in a number of schools in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Hungary for informatics teaching in secondary education, and used at the Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands for teaching systematic programming to students from various disciplines and in teacher courses. The language design focuses strongly on structured programming, and has a special construction for stepwise refinement, allowing students to focus on top-down design, and bottom-up coding. The microkernel operating system Eumel began as a runtime system (environment) for ELAN. See also *ALGOL 68 ALGOL 68 (short for ''Algorithmic Language ...

Elan Graphics
Elan Graphics is a computer graphics architecture for Silicon Graphics computer workstations. Elan Graphics was developed in 1991 and was available as a high-end graphics option on workstations released during the mid-1990s as part of the Express Graphics architectures family. Elan Graphics gives the workstation real-time 2D and 3D graphics rendering capability similar to that of even high-end PCs made over ten years after Elan's introduction, with the exception of texture mapping, which had to be performed in software. The Silicon Graphics Indigo Elan option Graphics systems consist of four GE7 Geometry Engines capable of a combined 128 MFLOPS and one RE3 Raster Engine. Together, they are capable of rendering 180K Z-buffered, lit, Gouraud-shaded triangles per second. The framebuffer has 56 bits per pixel, causing 12-bits per pixel (dithered RGB 4/4/4) to be used for a double-buffered, depth buffered, RGB layout. When double-buffering isn't required, it is possible to run in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Enterprise 128
The Enterprise is a Zilog Z80-based home computer announced in 1983, but through a series of delays, not commercially available until 1985. The specification as released was powerful and one of the higher end in its class (though not by the margin envisaged in 1983). This was due to the use of ASICs for graphics and sound which took workload away from the CPU, an extensive implementation of ANSI BASIC and a bank switching system to allow for larger amounts of RAM than the Z80 natively supported. It also featured a distinctive and colourful case design, and promise of multiple expansion options. Ultimately it was not commercially successful, after multiple renames, delays and a changing market place. Its manufacturer calling in the receivers in 1986 with significant debt. It was developed by British company Intelligent Software and marketed by Enterprise Computers. Its two variants are the Enterprise 64, with 64 kilobytes of Random Access Memory (RAM), and the Enterprise 128, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Greek People's Liberation Navy
The Greek People's Liberation Navy (; ''Elliniko Laiko Apeleftherotiko Naftiko''), commonly abbreviated as ELAN (ΕΛΑΝ), was the naval force of the communist-led Greek People's Liberation Army (ELAS) resistance movement during World War II, and later during the Greek Civil War. ELAN was essentially an auxiliary coastal force, operating mostly caïque and other small vessels near the coasts of the Greek mainland and between the islands. By mid-1944 however it had grown to about 100 mostly small armed boats and over 1,200 men, divided into seven squadrons of three or four flotillas with up to six vessels each. Structure By the time of Liberation in late October 1944, ELAN was organized into six squadrons and a number of independent detachments, named after their areas of operations. These were: * 1st Squadron operating in the western Peloponnese and Zakynthos * 2nd Squadron operating in western Continental Greece and the northern Ionian Islands * 3rd Squadron operating ...
