By analogy with the term eigenvector for a vector which, when operated on by a linear operator is another vector which is a scalar multiple of itself, the term eigenplane can be used to describe a two-dimensional plane (a 2-p... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive%20polynomial%20%28field%20theory%29 | In finite field theory, a branch of mathematics, a primitive polynomial is the minimal polynomial of a primitive element of the finite field . This means that a polynomial of degree with coefficients in is a primitive polynomial if it is monic and has a root in such that is the entire field . This implies that i... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolomics | Metabolomics is the scientific study of chemical processes involving metabolites, the small molecule substrates, intermediates, and products of cell metabolism. Specifically, metabolomics is the "systematic study of the unique chemical fingerprints that specific cellular processes leave behind", the study of their smal... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parlay%20X | Parlay X was a set of standard Web service APIs for the telephone network (fixed and mobile). It is defunct and now replaced by OneAPI, which is the current valid standard from the GSM association for Telecom third party API.
It enables software developers to use the capabilities of an underlying network. The APIs ar... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano%20warning%20schemes%20of%20the%20United%20States | In October 2006, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) adopted a nationwide alert system for characterizing the level of unrest and eruptive activity at volcanoes. The system is now used by the Alaska Volcano Observatory, the California Volcano Observatory (California and Nevada), the Cascades Volcano Observatory ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet%20Mail%202000 | Internet Mail 2000 is an Internet mail architecture proposed by Daniel J. Bernstein (and in subsequent years separately proposed by several others), designed with the precept that the initial storage of mail messages be the responsibility of the sender, and not of the recipient as it is with the SMTP-based Internet mai... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haig%E2%80%93Simons%20income | Haig–Simons income or Schanz–Haig–Simons income is an income measure used by public finance economists to analyze economic well-being which defines income as consumption plus change in net worth. It is represented by the mathematical formula:
I = C + ΔNW
where C = consumption and ΔNW = change in net worth.
Consumpti... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed%20circuit%20board%20milling | Printed circuit board milling (also: isolation milling) is the milling process used for removing areas of copper from a sheet of printed circuit board (PCB) material to recreate the pads, signal traces and structures according to patterns from a digital circuit board plan known as a layout file. Similar to the more com... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darknet | A dark net or darknet is an overlay network within the Internet that can only be accessed with specific software, configurations, or authorization, and often uses a unique customized communication protocol. Two typical darknet types are social networks (usually used for file hosting with a peer-to-peer connection), and... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equidistributed%20sequence | In mathematics, a sequence (s1, s2, s3, ...) of real numbers is said to be equidistributed, or uniformly distributed, if the proportion of terms falling in a subinterval is proportional to the length of that subinterval. Such sequences are studied in Diophantine approximation theory and have applications to Monte Carl... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key%20generator | A key generator is a protocol or algorithm that is used in many cryptographic protocols to generate a sequence with many pseudo-random characteristics. This sequence is used as an encryption key at one end of communication, and as a decryption key at the other. One can implement a key generator in a system that aims t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical%20schema | A physical data model (or database design) is a representation of a data design as implemented, or intended to be implemented, in a database management system. In the lifecycle of a project it typically derives from a logical data model, though it may be reverse-engineered from a given database implementation. A comp... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-oriented%20programming | Role-oriented programming as a form of computer programming aims at expressing things in terms that are analogous to human conceptual understanding of the world. This should make programs easier to understand and maintain.
The main idea of role-oriented programming is that humans think in terms of roles. This claim is... |
