https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-side%20bus | In personal computer microprocessor architecture, a back-side bus (BSB), or backside bus, was a computer bus used on early Intel platforms to connect the CPU to CPU cache memory, usually off-die L2. If a design utilizes it along with a front-side bus (FSB), it is said to use a dual-bus architecture, or in Intel's termi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat%20behaviorist | Cat behaviorists are individuals who specialize in working in close environments with not only the cats, but their owners, and dealing with managing the behavior of the cat. A cat behaviorist can be certified or certificated after years of academic study and practical case experience. However, it is also possible for a... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr%20mill | A burr mill, or burr grinder, is a mill used to grind hard, small food products between two revolving abrasive surfaces separated by a distance usually set by the user. When the two surfaces are set far apart, the resulting ground material is coarser, and when the two surfaces are set closer together, the resulting gro... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lukacs%27s%20proportion-sum%20independence%20theorem | In statistics, Lukacs's proportion-sum independence theorem is a result that is used when studying proportions, in particular the Dirichlet distribution. It is named after Eugene Lukacs.
The theorem
If Y1 and Y2 are non-degenerate, independent random variables, then the random variables
are independently distribu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal%20pendulum%20absorber | A centrifugal pendulum absorber is a type of tuned mass damper. It reduces the amplitude of a torsional vibration in drive trains that use a combustion engine.
History
The centrifugal pendulum absorber was first patented in 1937 by R. Sarazin and a different version by R. Chilton in 1938. Generally, both Sarazin and ... |
