Propel is a free, open-source (MIT) object-relational mapping toolkit written in PHP. It is also an integral part of the PHP framework Symfony and was the default ORM up to, and including version 1.2.
The Propel project was started in August 2003, with the availability of beta versions PHP version 5. With version 5, PHP was finally able to provide a level of support for object-oriented programming that both made projects like Propel possible and also created a demand for these hitherto-missing components of large-scale, object-oriented architectures. Propel was originally based on the Apache Torque project, which was a Java language ORM project.
Propel's primary function is to provide a mapping between PHP classes and database tables. To accomplish this Propel includes a generator component which uses source code generation to build PHP classes based on a datamodel definition written in XML. Propel also includes a runtime component which manages connections, transactions, and any idiosyncratic rules that describe the workings of the RDBMS being used with Propel.
PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a general-purpose programming language. Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994, the PHP reference implementation is now produced by The PHP Group. PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page, but it now stands for the recursive backronym PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.
PHP code may be embedded into HTML code, or it can be used in combination with various web template systems, web content management system and web frameworks. PHP code is usually processed by a PHP interpreter implemented as a module in the web server or as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) executable. The web server combines the results of the interpreted and executed PHP code, which may be any type of data, including images, with the generated web page. PHP code may also be executed with a command-line interface (CLI) and can be used to implement standalone graphical applications.
The standard PHP interpreter, powered by the Zend Engine, is free software released under the PHP License. PHP has been widely ported and can be deployed on most web servers on almost every operating system and platform, free of charge.
The Philippine peso (Filipino: piso; sign: ₱; code: PHP) is the official currency of the Philippines. It is subdivided into 100 centavos (Filipino: sentimo). As a former colony of the United States, the country used English on its currency, with the word "peso" appearing on notes and coinage until 1967. Since the adaptation of Filipino language for banknotes and coins, the term "piso" is now used.
The peso is usually denoted by the symbol "₱". Other ways of writing the Philippine peso sign are "PHP", "PhP", "Php", or just "P". The "₱" symbol was added to the Unicode standard in version 3.2 and is assigned U+20B1 (₱). The symbol can be accessed through some word processors by typing in "20b1" and then pressing the Alt and X buttons simultaneously. This symbol is unique to the Philippines as the symbol used for the peso in countries like Mexico and other former colonies of Spain in Latin America is "$".
The Philippine coins and banknotes are minted and printed at the Security Plant Complex of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Central Bank of the Philippines) in Quezon City.

The Projek Penyelenggaraan Lebuhraya Berhad (PROPEL Berhad) is the largest highway maintenance operator in Malaysia. A member of UEM Group, the company has undertaken repair and maintenance works on highway facilities, such as road works and repair works, road line painting, cleaning works on lay-bys and rest and service areas, trimming grass and landscaping along expressway areas, road furniture instalment and others. PROPEL Berhad was delisted from Bursa Malaysia as it became an operating business unit of UEM Group Berhad.
The PROPEL Intervention Team (PIT) or PROPEL Response Team is a special response team unit provides 24-hour patrolling services to monitor and regulate traffic flow along North–South Expressway network. They are the first to be at site during emergency situation to manage the traffic and clear debris from accidents; to ensure smooth operation on the highway.
The cleaners of buildings and Layby-Rest and Service Area (RSA) are responsible to ensure that facilities maintained by PROPEL are clean and comfortable for users.
Propel mometasone furoate implant (trade name Propel), is a bioabsorbable steroid-eluting stent developed by Intersect ENT. It is implanted after surgery to assist in treating chronic rhinosinusitis. It delivers steroids over a 30 day period prior to dissolving, and has been shown to improve outcomes of surgery.
Propel uses sustained release technology to deliver mometasone furoate directly to the sinus mucosa. The device is inserted into an open surgical cavity. The device has what is described as a "spring-like design," which conforms to a patient's sinus anatomy and props open the sinus cavity.Anti-inflammatory medicine is then delivered over a 30 day period with the device dissolving so it does not need to be removed. The use of Propel reduced the need for additional surgical procedures and steroid pills, which can have detrimental side effects. Propel is also manufactured in a smaller version known as the Propel mini.
A randomized, double-blind pilot study of Propel using 43 patients during an eight week trial period showed no adverse effects. The intra-patient control design compared a drug-eluting implant (Propel) to a non-steroid eluting implant. It also showed adhesion rates of 5.3% for those using Propel in comparison to 21.1% for those who received a non-steroid eluting implant. The trial showed less than 10% of stent material present after 30 days with the remaining completely absorbed by the end of the eight week trial.
