It provides a WYSIWYG front-end for editing graphics, effects and logic of the user interface and generates ANSI C code for particular t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbo%20%28mycology%29 | An umbo is a raised area in the center of a mushroom cap. Caps that possess this feature are called umbonate. Umbos that are sharply pointed are called acute, while those that are more rounded are broadly umbonate. If the umbo is elongated, it is cuspidate, and if the umbo is sharply delineated but not elongated (somew... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process%20variation%20%28semiconductor%29 | Process variation is the naturally occurring variation in the attributes of transistors (length, widths, oxide thickness) when integrated circuits are fabricated. The amount of process variation becomes particularly pronounced at smaller process nodes (<65 nm) as the variation becomes a larger percentage of the full le... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA%20text%20mode | VGA text mode was introduced in 1987 by IBM as part of the VGA standard for its IBM PS/2 computers. Its use on IBM PC compatibles was widespread through the 1990s and persists today for some applications on modern computers. The main features of VGA text mode are colored (programmable 16 color palette) characters and t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenAM | OpenAM is an open-source access management, entitlements and federation server platform. Now it is supported by Open Identity Platform Community.
OpenAM (Open Access Management) originated as OpenSSO, (Open Single Sign-On) an access management system created by Sun Microsystems and now owned by Oracle Corporation. Ope... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-domain%20harmonic%20scaling | Time-domain harmonic scaling (TDHS) is a method for time-scale modification of speech (or other audio signals), allowing the apparent rate of speech articulation to be changed without affecting the pitch-contour and the time-evolution of the formant structure. TDHS differs from other time-scale modification algorithms ... |
