There are many kinds of walls, including: * Walls in buildings that form a fundamental part of the superstructure or separate interior rooms, sometimes for fire safety *Glass walls (a wall in which the primary structure is made of glass; does not include openings within walls that have glass coverings: these are windows) * Border barriers between countries * Brick walls * Defensive walls in fortifications * Permanent, solid fences * Retaining walls, which hold back dirt, stone, water, or noise sound * Stone walls * Walls that protect from oceans (seawalls) or rivers (levees) Etymology The term ''wall'' comes from Latin ''vallum'' meaning "...an earthen wall or rampart set with palisades, a row or line of stakes, a wall, a rampart, fortification..." while the Latin word ''murus'' means a defensive stone wall.

Teichoic Acid
Teichoic acids (''cf.'' Greek τεῖχος, ''teīkhos'', "wall", to be specific a fortification wall, as opposed to τοῖχος, ''toīkhos'', a regular wall) are bacterial copolymers of glycerol phosphate or ribitol phosphate and carbohydrates linked via phosphodiester bonds. Teichoic acids are found within the cell wall of most Gram-positive bacteria such as species in the genera '' Staphylococcus'', ''Streptococcus'', ''Bacillus'', '' Clostridium'', '' Corynebacterium'', and ''Listeria'', and appear to extend to the surface of the peptidoglycan layer. They can be covalently linked to ''N''-acetylmuramic acid or a terminal D-alanine in the tetrapeptide crosslinkage between ''N''-acetylmuramic acid units of the peptidoglycan layer, or they can be anchored in the cytoplasmic membrane with a lipid anchor. Teichoic acid's chemical signal is CH17P4O29NOH. Teichoic acids that are anchored to the lipid membrane are referred to as lipoteichoic acids (LTAs), whereas teichoic acid ...

Weapon Target Assignment Problem
The weapon target assignment problem (WTA) is a class of combinatorial optimization problems present in the fields of optimization and operations research. It consists of finding an optimal assignment of a set of weapons of various types to a set of targets in order to maximize the total expected damage done to the opponent. The basic problem is as follows: :There are a number of weapons and a number of targets. The weapons are of type i = 1, \ldots, m . There are W_ available weapons of type i. Similarly, there are j = 1, \ldots, n targets, each with a value of V_ . Any of the weapons can be assigned to any target. Each weapon type has a certain probability of destroying each target, given by p_ . Notice that as opposed to the classic assignment problem or the generalized assignment problem, more than one agent (i.e., weapon) can be assigned to each ''task'' (i.e., target) and not all targets are required to have weapons assigned. Thus, we see that the WTA allows one to f ...
