DemandIn economics, demand is the quantity of a good that consumers are willing and able to purchase at various prices during a given time. The relationship between price and quantity demand is also called the demand curve. Demand for a specific item is a function of an item's perceived necessity, price, perceived quality, convenience, available alternatives, purchasers' disposable income and tastes, and many other options. Innumerable factors and circumstances affect a consumer's willingness or to buy a good.
Law of demandIn microeconomics, the law of demand is a fundamental principle which states that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. In other words, "conditional on all else being equal, as the price of a good increases (↑), quantity demanded will decrease (↓); conversely, as the price of a good decreases (↓), quantity demanded will increase (↑)". Alfred Marshall worded this as: "When we say that a person's demand for anything increases, we mean that he will buy more of it than he would before at the same price, and that he will buy as much of it as before at a higher price".
Offre et demandeL'offre et la demande est un modèle économique de détermination des prix dans un marché. Notamment utilisé en microéconomie, ce modèle énonce que, certaines hypothèses étant respectées, le fonctionnement d'un marché permet au prix unitaire du bien vendu sur ce marché de varier jusqu'à ce que où la quantité demandée soit égale à la quantité fournie. Il résulte ainsi un équilibre économique entre le prix offert et la quantité demandée.
Cross elasticity of demandIn economics, the cross (or cross-price) elasticity of demand measures the effect of changes in the price of one good on the quantity demanded of another good. This reflects the fact that the quantity demanded of good is dependent on not only its own price (price elasticity of demand) but also the price of other "related" good. The cross elasticity of demand is calculated as the ratio between the percentage change of the quantity demanded for a good and the percentage change in the price of another good, ceteris paribus:The sign of the cross elasticity indicates the relationship between two goods.
Sustainable designEnvironmentally sustainable design (also called environmentally conscious design, eco-design, etc.) is the philosophy of designing physical objects, the built environment, and services to comply with the principles of ecological sustainability and also aimed at improving the health and comfort of occupants in a building. Sustainable design seeks to reduce negative impacts on the environment, the health and well-being of building occupants, thereby improving building performance.
Conception participativeLa conception participative, ou coconception, que l'on retrouve couramment sous le terme codesign, co-design et design participatif, est une méthode de travail qui implique l'utilisateur final, lors d'un processus de développement et de conception d'un produit ou d'un service. Il s'agit donc d'une méthode de conception centrée sur l'utilisateur où l'accent est mis sur le rôle actif des utilisateurs.
Adresse IPUne adresse IP (Internet Protocol) est un numéro d'identification unique attribué de façon permanente ou provisoire à chaque périphérique faisant partie d'un même réseau informatique utilisant l'Internet Protocol. L'adresse IP est à l'origine du système d'acheminement (le routage) des paquets de données sur Internet. Il existe deux grandes versions d'adresses IP : la version 4 (IPv4) codée sur , et la version 6 (IPv6) codée sur .
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
Épuisement des adresses IPv4thumb|Épuisement des adresses IPv4 depuis 1995. La courbe RIR indique les blocs assignés par les registres Internet régionaux aux registres locaux. La différence entre les deux courbes représente la quantité d'adresses libres dont les RIR disposent. thumb|Taux d'assignation des adresses IP par registre Internet régional en moyenne par trimestre. La croissance du nombre d'utilisateurs et de serveurs d'Internet s'accompagne d'un épuisement des adresses IPv4, c'est-à-dire de la diminution progressive de la quantité d'adresses IPv4 publiques disponibles.
Living wageA living wage is defined as the minimum income necessary for a worker to meet their basic needs. This is not the same as a subsistence wage, which refers to a biological minimum, or a solidarity wage, which refers to a minimum wage tracking labor productivity. Needs are defined to include food, housing, and other essential needs such as clothing. The goal of a living wage is to allow a worker to afford a basic but decent standard of living through employment without government subsidies.
