https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intervillous%20space
In the placenta, the intervillous space is the space between chorionic villi, and contains maternal blood. The trophoblast, which is a collection of cells that invades the maternal endometrium to gain access to nutrition for the fetus, proliferates rapidly and forms a network of branching processes which cover the ent...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placental%20cotyledon
The placenta of humans, and certain other mammals contains structures known as cotyledons, which transmit fetal blood and allow exchange of oxygen and nutrients with the maternal blood. Ruminants The Artiodactyla have a cotyledonary placenta. In this form of placenta the chorionic villi form a number of separate circ...

Before the fertilized ovum reaches the uterus, the mucous membrane of the body of the uterus undergoes important changes and is then known as the decidua. The thickness and vascularity of the mucous membrane are greatly increased; its glands are elongated and open on its free surface by funnel-shaped orifices, while th...

Kernel Patch Protection (KPP), informally known as PatchGuard, is a feature of 64-bit (x64) editions of Microsoft Windows that prevents patching the kernel. It was first introduced in 2005 with the x64 editions of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1. "Patching the kernel" refers to unsupported modificati...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adversary%20model
In computer science, an online algorithm measures its competitiveness against different adversary models. For deterministic algorithms, the adversary is the same as the adaptive offline adversary. For randomized online algorithms competitiveness can depend upon the adversary model used. Common adversaries The three c...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stationary%20sequence
In probability theory – specifically in the theory of stochastic processes, a stationary sequence is a random sequence whose joint probability distribution is invariant over time. If a random sequence X j is stationary then the following holds: where F is the joint cumulative distribution function of the random va...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HisB
The hisB gene, found in the enterobacteria (such as E. coli), in Campylobacter jejuni and in Xylella/Xanthomonas encodes a protein involved in catalysis of two step in histidine biosynthesis (the sixth and eight step), namely the bifunctional Imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase/histidinol-phosphatase. The former f...
