It is related to, and anticipated by a number of years, the Google Tensor Processing Unit It is designed to run as a co-processor with another co...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-carrier%20injection
Hot carrier injection (HCI) is a phenomenon in solid-state electronic devices where an electron or a “hole” gains sufficient kinetic energy to overcome a potential barrier necessary to break an interface state. The term "hot" refers to the effective temperature used to model carrier density, not to the overall tempera...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiseat%20configuration
A multiseat, multi-station or multiterminal system is a single computer which supports multiple independent local users at the same time. A "seat" consists of all hardware devices assigned to a specific workplace at which one user sits at and interacts with the computer. It consists of at least one graphics device (g...

Molecular risk assessment is a procedure in which biomarkers (for example, biological molecules or changes in tumor cell DNA) are used to estimate a person's risk for developing cancer. Specific biomarkers may be linked to particular types of cancer. Sources External links Molecular risk assessment entry in the pub...

The Copeland–Erdős constant is the concatenation of "0." with the base 10 representations of the prime numbers in order. Its value, using the modern definition of prime, is approximately 0.235711131719232931374143… . The constant is irrational; this can be proven with Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions or...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectedness
In mathematics, connectedness is used to refer to various properties meaning, in some sense, "all one piece". When a mathematical object has such a property, we say it is connected; otherwise it is disconnected. When a disconnected object can be split naturally into connected pieces, each piece is usually called a comp...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed-field%20gel%20electrophoresis
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is a technique used for the separation of large DNA molecules by applying to a gel matrix an electric field that periodically changes direction. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis is a method used to separate large segments of DNA using an alternating and cross field. In a uniform ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumscriptional%20name
In biological classification, circumscriptional names are taxon names that are not ruled by ICZN and are defined by the particular set of members included. Circumscriptional names are used mainly for taxa above family-group level (e. g. order or class), but can be also used for taxa of any ranks, as well as for rank-le...
