https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabu%20search | Tabu search (TS) is a metaheuristic search method employing local search methods used for mathematical optimization. It was created by Fred W. Glover in 1986 and formalized in 1989.
Local (neighborhood) searches take a potential solution to a problem and check its immediate neighbors (that is, solutions that are simi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types%20of%20radio%20emissions | The International Telecommunication Union uses an internationally agreed system for classifying radio frequency signals. Each type of radio emission is classified according to its bandwidth, method of modulation, nature of the modulating signal, and type of information transmitted on the carrier signal. It is based on... |

Science and technology
Atmospheric circulation, the large-scale movement of air

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicostatistics | Lexicostatistics is a method of comparative linguistics that involves comparing the percentage of lexical cognates between languages to determine their relationship. Lexicostatistics is related to the comparative method but does not reconstruct a proto-language. It is to be distinguished from glottochronology, which at... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier%20inversion%20theorem | In mathematics, the Fourier inversion theorem says that for many types of functions it is possible to recover a function from its Fourier transform. Intuitively it may be viewed as the statement that if we know all frequency and phase information about a wave then we may reconstruct the original wave precisely.
The th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eircell | Eircell was an Irish mobile cellular network provider which was established in 1984, with operations commencing in 1986. Its access code was 088 for the original analogue TACS system and 087 for the later GSM system. Following the abolition of the Department of Posts and Telegraphs, Eircell fell under the remit of Tele... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seifert%E2%80%93Van%20Kampen%20theorem | In mathematics, the Seifert–Van Kampen theorem of algebraic topology (named after Herbert Seifert and Egbert van Kampen), sometimes just called Van Kampen's theorem, expresses the structure of the fundamental group of a topological space in terms of the fundamental groups of two open, path-connected subspaces that co... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose-6-phosphate%20dehydrogenase%20deficiency | Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PDD), which is the most common enzyme deficiency worldwide, is an inborn error of metabolism that predisposes to red blood cell breakdown. Most of the time, those who are affected have no symptoms. Following a specific trigger, symptoms such as yellowish skin, dark urine,... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantor%E2%80%93Bernstein%20theorem | In set theory and order theory, the Cantor–Bernstein theorem states that the cardinality of the second type class, the class of countable order types, equals the cardinality of the continuum. It was used by Felix Hausdorff and named by him after Georg Cantor and Felix Bernstein. Cantor constructed a family of countable... |
