4 unusual facts about Rosetta


Rosetta

Köppen-Geiger climate classification system classifies its climate as hot desrt (BWh), but blowing winds from the Mediterranean Sea greatly moderate the temperatures, typical to the Egypt's north coast, making its summers moderately hot and humid while its winters mild and moderately wet when sleet and hail are also common.

Rosetta-lang

The objective of the meeting was to define requirements for a next-generation design language that would address perceived shortcomings in existing languages such as VHDL and Verilog.

The first approach ultimately resulted in SystemVerilog and extensions to VHDL while the second resulted in SystemC, all of which became Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards for the semiconductor industry.

Jean-Pierre Lebreton

Besides the Huygens mission, he is also working with the Rosetta comet probe and its Plasma Consortium Experiment, and the Venus Express space probe.
