  Choosing a Parka
Parkas constitute one of the most basic survival elements for the extreme outdoors.
A good fit is crucial to the parka's ability to protect you from the elements.
Where weight is not a consideration, a parka should have plenty of pockets, including cargo/handwarmer pockets large enough to fit a hand wearing gloves or mitts.

  Anorak - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An anorak or parka is a type of heavy jacket with a hood, often lined with fur or fun fur, so as to protect the face from a combination of freezing temperatures and wind.
The words "anorak" and "parka" are now often used interchangeably, but when first introduced they described somewhat different garments, and the distinction is still maintained by some.
Strictly speaking, an anorak is a waterproof jacket with a hood and drawstrings at the waist and cuffs; while a parka is a knee-length cold-weather jacket or coat, typically stuffed with down or very warm synthetic fibre, and having a fur-lined hood.

 Large-Scale Knowledge Representation: The PARKA Project
The Parka system is a frame-based AI language (sometimes called a ``property/class'' system in todays literature) which was designed to be supported efficiently using high-performance computing techniques.
The Parka language allows exceptions, in the form of multiple-inheritance, and provides extremely efficient (and efficiently parallelizable) algorithms for performing inheritance using a true inferential-distance-ordering calculation.
Parka has also been shown to effectively compute recognition, and also to handle extremely complex ``structure matching'' queries -- a class of conjunctive queries relating a set of variable and contraints and unifying these against the larger KB.
