https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital%20Addressable%20Lighting%20Interface | Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) is a trademark for network-based products that control lighting. The underlying technology was established by a consortium of lighting equipment manufacturers as a successor for 1-10 V/ lighting control systems, and as an open standard alternative to several proprietary pro... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolichovespula | Dolichovespula is a small genus of social wasps distributed widely throughout the Northern Hemisphere. The yellow and black members of the genus are known by the common name yellowjackets in North America, such as Dolichovespula norwegica, along with members of their sister genus Vespula. In a study on the nesting biol... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigraph%20%28mathematics%29 | In mathematics, the epigraph or supergraph of a function valued in the extended real numbers is the set, denoted by of all points in the Cartesian product lying on or above its graph. The strict epigraph is the set of points in lying strictly above its graph.
Importantly, although both the graph and epigraph of... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximal%20unique%20match | A maximal unique match or MUM, for short, is part of a key step
in the multiple sequence alignment of genomes in computational biology. Identification of MUMs and other potential anchors, is the first step in larger alignment systems such as MUMmer. Anchors are the areas between two genomes where they are highly simi... |

He is the former vice president of the Physics Resource Center at the American Institute of Physics, a past president of the American Association of Physics Teachers, and a ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CA-group | In mathematics, in the realm of group theory, a group is said to be a CA-group or centralizer abelian group if the centralizer of any nonidentity element is an abelian subgroup. Finite CA-groups are of historical importance as an early example of the type of classifications that would be used in the Feit–Thompson theo... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CN-group | In mathematics, in the area of algebra known as group theory, a more than fifty-year effort was made to answer a conjecture of : are all groups of odd order solvable? Progress was made by showing that CA-groups, groups in which the centralizer of a non-identity element is abelian, of odd order are solvable . Further pr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary%20pressure | Any cause that reduces or increases reproductive success in a portion of a population potentially exerts evolutionary pressure, selective pressure or selection pressure, driving natural selection. It is a quantitative description of the amount of change occurring in processes investigated by evolutionary biology, but t... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrally%20closed%20subgroup | In mathematics, in the realm of group theory, a subgroup of a group is said to be centrally closed if the centralizer of any nonidentity element of the subgroup lies inside the subgroup.
Some facts about centrally closed subgroups:
Every malnormal subgroup is centrally closed.
Every Frobenius kernel is centrally cl... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllosphere | In microbiology, the phyllosphere is the total above-ground surface of a plant when viewed as a habitat for microorganisms. The phyllosphere can be further subdivided into the caulosphere (stems), phylloplane (leaves), anthosphere (flowers), and carposphere (fruits). The below-ground microbial habitats (i.e. the thin-v... |
