Vista, is the annual international business summit hosted by IIM Bangalore. The summit spanning across three days can be defined as the "coming together of academia and industry". The event brings together the leaders of every field, like, marketing, finance, operations, human resources, consulting, social work, etc. and provides a platform for students to enhance knowledge in the field learning from veterans through events, competitions and case studies. The event also incorporates several guest speaker sessions and conclaves from people who have inspired generations of Indians into success.
VISTA consists of nearly 180 applications for clinical, financial, administrative, and infrastructure needs in VA integrated into a single, common database, permitting all VA applications to share one single, authoritative data source for all veteran-related care and services. The U.S. Congress has mandated the VA keep all veterans health information in one single authoritative system, and has mandated VISTA as this role.
Over 60% of all physicians trained in the U.S. rotate through the VHA on clinical electives, making VistA the most familiar and widely used EHR in the U.S. Nearly half of all U.S. hospitals that have a complete inpatient/outpatient enterprise-wide implementation of an EHR are VA hospitals using VistA.
The VISTA (Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy) is a wide-field reflecting telescope with a 4.1 metre mirror, located at the Paranal Observatory in Chile. It is operated by the European Southern Observatory and started science operations in December 2009. VISTA is a survey telescope working at infrared wavelengths, and is by far the largest telescope in the world dedicated to surveying the sky at near-infrared wavelengths. The telescope has only one instrument: VIRCAM, the Vista InfraRed CAMera. This is a 3-tonne camera containing 16 special detectors sensitive to infrared light, with a combined total of 67 million pixels.
A second-generation instrument (4MOST, a 2400-object fibre-fed multi-object spectrograph) is under development for installation around 2020.
Observing at wavelengths longer than those visible to the human eye allows VISTA to study objects that may be almost impossible to see in visible light because they are cool, obscured by dust clouds or because their light has been stretched towards redder wavelengths by the expansion of space during the light’s long journey from the early Universe.
VISTA was conceived and developed by a consortium of universities in the United Kingdom led by Queen Mary, University of London and became an in-kind contribution to ESO as part of the UK's accession agreement, with the subscription paid by the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC).
"Vista" is the debut single by South Korean girl group Fiestar. The single was released on August 31, 2012 by LOEN Entertainment.
