At the University of Washington in 1952, John Rainwater was invented and enrolled in a mathematics course by graduate students who were in possession of a duplicat... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National%20Strategy%20for%20Trusted%20Identities%20in%20Cyberspace | The National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC) is a US government initiative announced in April 2011 to improve the privacy, security and convenience of sensitive online transactions through collaborative efforts with the private sector, advocacy groups, government agencies, and other organizations.... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma-activated%20bonding | Plasma-activated bonding is a derivative, directed to lower processing temperatures for direct bonding with hydrophilic surfaces. The main requirements for lowering temperatures of direct bonding are the use of materials melting at low temperatures and with different coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE).
Surface ac... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eutectic%20bonding | Eutectic bonding, also referred to as eutectic soldering, describes a wafer bonding technique with an intermediate metal layer that can produce a eutectic system. Those eutectic metals are alloys that transform directly from solid to liquid state, or vice versa from liquid to solid state, at a specific composition and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass%20frit%20bonding | Glass frit bonding, also referred to as glass soldering or seal glass bonding, describes a wafer bonding technique with an intermediate glass layer. It is a widely used encapsulation technology for surface micro-machined structures, e.g., accelerometers or gyroscopes. This technique utilizes low melting-point glass ("g... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive%20bonding | Reactive bonding describes a wafer bonding procedure using highly reactive nanoscale multilayer systems as an intermediate layer between the bonding substrates. The multilayer system consists of two alternating different thin metallic films. The self-propagating exothermic reaction within the multilayer system contrib... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James%20reduced%20product | In topology, a branch of mathematics, the James reduced product or James construction J(X) of a topological space X with given basepoint e is the quotient of the disjoint union of all powers X, X2, X3, ... obtained by identifying points (x1,...,xk−1,e,xk+1,...,xn) with (x1,...,xk−1, xk+1,...,xn). In other words, its un... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dold%20manifold | In mathematics, a Dold manifold is one of the manifolds , where is the involution that acts as −1 on the m-sphere and as complex conjugation on the complex projective space . These manifolds were constructed by , who used them to give explicit generators for René Thom's unoriented cobordism ring. Note that , the real... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software%20Metrics%20Metamodel | The OMG Structured Metrics Metamodel (SMM) specification defines a standard Metrics Metamodel. It is a publicly available specification from the Object Management Group (OMG). SMM specifies a metamodel for defining, representing and exchanging both measures and measurement information related to any structured informat... |
