https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation%20transformer | An isolation transformer is a transformer used to transfer electrical power from a source of alternating current (AC) power to some equipment or device while isolating the powered device from the power source, usually for safety reasons or to reduce transients and harmonics. Isolation transformers provide galvanic isol... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-key%20quicksort | Multi-key quicksort, also known as three-way radix quicksort, is an algorithm for sorting strings. This hybrid of quicksort and radix sort was originally suggested by P. Shackleton, as reported in one of C.A.R. Hoare's seminal papers on quicksort; its modern incarnation was developed by Jon Bentley and Robert Sedgewick... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capped%20octahedral%20molecular%20geometry | In chemistry, the capped octahedral molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where seven atoms or groups of atoms or ligands are arranged around a central atom defining the vertices of a gyroelongated triangular pyramid. This shape has C3v symmetry and is one of the three common shapes for heptacoordinate tr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytostasis | Cytostasis (cyto – cell; stasis – stoppage) is the inhibition of cell growth and multiplication. Cytostatic refers to a cellular component or medicine that inhibits cell division.
Cytostasis is an important prerequisite for structured multicellular organisms. Without regulation of cell growth and division only unorgan... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalodon%20%28website%29 | Megalodon (, "web gyotaku") is an on demand web citation service based in Japan. It is owned by Affility.
Megalodon's server can be searched for "web gyotaku" or copies of web pages, by prefixing any URL with "gyo.tc"; the process checks the query against other services as well, including Google's cached pages and Mem... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static%20variable | In computer programming, a static variable is a variable that has been allocated "statically", meaning that its lifetime (or "extent") is the entire run of the program. This is in contrast to shorter-lived automatic variables, whose storage is stack allocated and deallocated on the call stack; and in contrast to object... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context-based%20access%20control | Context-based access control (CBAC) is a feature of firewall software, which intelligently filters TCP and UDP packets based on application layer protocol session information. It can be used for intranets, extranets and internets.
CBAC can be configured to permit specified TCP and UDP traffic through a firewall only w... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monterey%20County%20reforestation | The Monterey County reforestation refers to efforts in Monterey County, California, to preserve the county's pine forests and urban environment. This one county boasts the native Monterey Pine ecosystem; one of the rarest forest ecosystems in the world. Only a few thousand acres of these endemic trees exist in four loc... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card%20Verifiable%20Certificate | Card Verifiable Certificates (CVC) are digital certificates that are designed to be processed by devices with limited computing power such as smart cards. This is achieved by using simple type–length–value (TLV) encoding with fixed fields. Fixed fields means that each field in the certificate is of fixed, or maximum, l... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microlocal%20analysis | In mathematical analysis, microlocal analysis comprises techniques developed from the 1950s onwards based on Fourier transforms related to the study of variable-coefficients-linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. This includes generalized functions, pseudo-differential operators, wave front sets, Fourier... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boris%20Vladimirovich%20Gnedenko | Boris Vladimirovich Gnedenko (; January 1, 1912 – December 27, 1995) was a Soviet mathematician and a student of Andrey Kolmogorov. He was born in Simbirsk (now Ulyanovsk), Russia, and died in Moscow. He is perhaps best known for his work with Kolmogorov, and his contributions to the study of probability theory, partic... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manure | Manure is organic matter that is used as organic fertilizer in agriculture. Most manure consists of animal feces; other sources include compost and green manure. Manures contribute to the fertility of soil by adding organic matter and nutrients, such as nitrogen, that are utilised by bacteria, fungi and other organisms... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflectometry | Reflectometry is a general term for the use of the reflection of waves or pulses at surfaces and interfaces to detect or characterize objects, sometimes to detect anomalies as in fault detection and medical diagnosis.
There are many different forms of reflectometry. They can be classified in several ways: by the used ... |
