Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for generating answers to questions. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a query, conducting a search through one or more data sources to identify candidate answers to the query, and providing each of the candidate answers with a preliminary score. The method further comprises filtering out any of the candidate answers with a preliminary score that does not satisfy a defined condition. The candidate answers having preliminary scores that satisfy this condition form a subset of the candidate answers. Each of the candidate answers in this subset is processed to produce further scores. A ranking function is applied to these further scores to determine a ranking for each of the candidate answers in the subset; and after this ranking function is applied, one or more of the candidate answers are selected as one or more final answers to the query.

Abstract: The present application relates to a control surface for an aircraft. The control surface has a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a chord-line defined between the leading edge and the trailing edge. A first aerodynamic surface is between the leading and trailing edges and a second surface is between the leading and trailing edges. The leading edge is formed by a nose, the nose having a hinge axis about which the control surface is deflectable. A maximum thickness of the control surface perpendicular to the chord-line between the first aerodynamic surface and the second surface is located aft of the hinge axis. The present application also relates to a control surface for an aircraft having a maximum curvature of the first aerodynamic surface of the control surface located aft of the hinge axis.
