https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layer%20%28object-oriented%20design%29 | In software object-oriented design, a layer is a group of classes that have the same set of link-time module dependencies to other modules. In other words, a layer is a group of reusable components that are reusable in similar circumstances. In programming languages, the layer distinction is often expressed as "import"... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLP-FRT%20recombination | In genetics, Flp-FRT recombination is a site-directed recombination technology, increasingly used to manipulate an organism's DNA under controlled conditions in vivo. It is analogous to Cre-lox recombination but involves the recombination of sequences between short flippase recognition target (FRT) sites by the recomb... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational%20transconductance%20amplifier | The operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) is an amplifier whose differential input voltage produces an output current. Thus, it is a voltage controlled current source (VCCS). There is usually an additional input for a current to control the amplifier's transconductance. The OTA is similar to a standard operation... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact%20inhibition | In cell biology, contact inhibition refers to two different but closely related phenomena: contact inhibition of locomotion (CIL) and contact inhibition of proliferation (CIP). CIL refers to the avoidance behavior exhibited by fibroblast-like cells when in contact with one another. In most cases, when two cells contac... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/August%20Adler | August Adler (24 January 1863, Opava, Austrian Silesia – 17 October 1923, Vienna) was a Czech and Austrian mathematician noted for using the theory of inversion to provide an alternate proof of Mascheroni's compass and straightedge construction theorem.

also called a directed acyclic word graph (DAWG; though that name also refers to a related data structure that functions as a suffix index)
is a data structure that represents a set of strings, and allows for a query operation that tests wheth... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pieter%20Hendrik%20Schoute | Pieter Hendrik Schoute (21 January 1846, Wormerveer – 18 April 1913, Groningen) was a Dutch mathematician known for his work on regular polytopes and Euclidean geometry.
He started his career as a civil engineer, but became a professor of mathematics at Groningen and published some thirty papers on polytopes between 1... |
