Every book written by hand on flexible material and intended to be placed in a library is called a manuscript.

Fiber-Optic Communications System
As depicted in Figure 3-16, information (voice, data, and video) from the source is encoded into electrical signals that can drive the transmitter. The fiber acts as an optical waveguide for the photons as they travel down the optical path toward the receiver. At the detector, the sign... | <urn:uuid:39827498-06cc-48a0-8b69-4192748fbbbe> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.ciscopress.com/articles/article.asp?p=170740&seqNum=11 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783393533.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154953-00029-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.916824 | 2,015 | 3.796875 | 4 |

Comparing Robins and Hummingbirds
Some birds, such as robins, are called short distance migrants.
