Henry Classification System "Finger Prints" in which he described his classification system that include three main fingerprint patterns - loops, whorls and arches. At the time, the alternative to fingerprints was Bertillonage, also known as Anthropometry. Developed by Alphonse Bertillon in 1879, Bertillonage consists of a meticulous method of measuring body parts for the use of identifying criminals. In 1892, the British Indian police force adopted Anthropometry. Two years later, Sir Edward Henry, Inspector General of the Bengal Police in India became interested in the use of fingerprints for the use of criminal identification. Influenced by Galton's "Finger Prints", the men corresponded regularly
Livermore loops Livermore loops Livermore loops (also known as the Livermore Fortran kernels or LFK) is a benchmark for parallel computers. It was created by Francis H. McMahon from scientific source code run on computers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. It consists of 24 do loops, some of which can be vectorized, and some of which cannot. The benchmark was published in 1986 in "Livermore fortran kernels: A computer test of numerical performance range". The Livermore loops were originally written in Fortran, but have since been ported to many programming languages. Each loop carries out a different mathematical kernel Those kernels are:
