Company Overview

SK C&C is a South Korean total IT services provider that was established in 1991. The company offers IT services such as IT consulting, outsourcing, system integration, and system maintenance & repair to just about every sector of industry, including finance, communication/media, energy/chemical, logistics/services, and the public sector. SK C&C is the de facto holding company of the SK Group, South Korea's third largest conglomerate with over $140 billion in revenues in 2012.

After providing services to an SK affiliate in 1998, SK C&C has adopted an advanced SLA model; it also offers top-level IT outsourcing services—SK C&C runs not only Korea’s largest data center in Daedeok, it operates a 24/7 customer support center (ISAC).

SK C&C has worked with the Korean Government as well as with other overseas governments on large-scale system integration projects.

In 2007, SK C&C established subsidiary companies in China and India, and in 2008, the company was awarded the Azerbaijan ITS construction project—the largest overseas project awarded to a Korean IT services provider. SK C&C went on to carry out Mongolia’s ITS project, Kazakhstan’s postal/logistics project, and m-Commerce projects in the US, leading Korea’s export of IT services to overseas markets.

2-6-6-4

In the Whyte notation for the classification of steam locomotive wheel arrangement, a 2-6-6-4 is a locomotive with a two-wheel leading truck, two sets of six driving wheels, and a four-wheel trailing truck. All 2-6-6-4s have been articulated locomotives, of the Mallet or related simple articulated type.

Other equivalent classifications are:

The UIC classification is refined to (1'C)C2' for Mallet locomotives.

The 2-6-6-4 was a fairly late development, a product of the superpower steam concept, introduced by the Lima Locomotive Works, which encouraged the use of large fireboxes supported by four-wheel trailing trucks. Such a firebox could sustain a rate of steam generation to meet any demands of the locomotive's cylinders, even at high speed. High speeds were certainly among the design goals for a 2-6-6-4; most of the type were intended for use on fast freight trains.

Voiceless palatal affricate

The voiceless palatal affricate is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨c͡ç⟩. The voiceless palatal affricate occurs in such languages as Hungarian and Skolt Sami, among others. The consonant is quite rare; it is mostly absent from Europe (with the Uralic languages and Albanian being exceptions). It usually occurs with its voiced counterpart, the voiced palatal affricate.

There is also a voiceless post-palatal affricate (also called pre-velar, fronted velar etc.) in some languages.
