Professional mobile radioProfessional mobile radio (also known as private mobile radio (PMR) in the UK) are person-to-person two-way radio voice communications systems which use portable, mobile, base station, and dispatch console radios. PMR radio systems are based on such standards as MPT-1327, TETRA, APCO 25, and DMR which are designed for dedicated use by specific organizations, or standards such as NXDN intended for general commercial use. These systems are used by police, fire, ambulance, and emergency services, and by commercial firms such as taxis and delivery services.
Mobile virtual private networkA mobile virtual private network (mobile VPN or mVPN) is a VPN which is capable of persisting during sessions across changes in physical connectivity, point of network attachment, and IP address. The "mobile" in the name refers to the fact that the VPN can change points of network attachment, not necessarily that the mVPN client is a mobile phone or that it is running on a wireless network.
Split exact sequenceIn mathematics, a split exact sequence is a short exact sequence in which the middle term is built out of the two outer terms in the simplest possible way. A short exact sequence of abelian groups or of modules over a fixed ring, or more generally of objects in an is called split exact if it is isomorphic to the exact sequence where the middle term is the direct sum of the outer ones: The requirement that the sequence is isomorphic means that there is an isomorphism such that the composite is the natural inclusion and such that the composite equals b.
No-communication theoremIn physics, the no-communication theorem or no-signaling principle is a no-go theorem from quantum information theory which states that, during measurement of an entangled quantum state, it is not possible for one observer, by making a measurement of a subsystem of the total state, to communicate information to another observer. The theorem is important because, in quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement is an effect by which certain widely separated events can be correlated in ways that, at first glance, suggest the possibility of communication faster-than-light.
Pure submoduleIn mathematics, especially in the field of module theory, the concept of pure submodule provides a generalization of direct summand, a type of particularly well-behaved piece of a module. Pure modules are complementary to flat modules and generalize Prüfer's notion of pure subgroups. While flat modules are those modules which leave short exact sequences exact after tensoring, a pure submodule defines a short exact sequence (known as a pure exact sequence) that remains exact after tensoring with any module.
Medium waveMedium wave (MW) is the part of the medium frequency (MF) radio band used mainly for AM radio broadcasting. The spectrum provides about 120 channels with more limited sound quality than FM stations on the FM broadcast band. During the daytime, reception is usually limited to more local stations, though this is dependent on the signal conditions and quality of radio receiver used. Improved signal propagation at night allows the reception of much longer distance signals (within a range of about 2,000 km or 1,200 miles).
Guide électronique des programmesL’EPG (sigle pour Electronic Program Guide) ou en langue française Guide électronique des programmes est un guide utilisé dans le domaine de la télévision. Il est constitué de renseignements détaillés accessibles par un menu infographique interactif. Il délivre des informations sur le programme de télévision présent et les émissions à venir sur un délai de quelques heures et parfois plusieurs jours.
Layer 2 Tunneling ProtocolLayer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) signifie protocole de tunnellisation de niveau 2. Il s'agit d'un protocole réseau utilisé pour créer des réseaux privés virtuels (VPN), le plus souvent entre un opérateur de collecte de trafic (dégroupeur ADSL ou opérateur de téléphonie pour les accès RTC) et les fournisseurs d'accès à Internet. Ce protocole, dont la normalisation par l'Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) date de 1999, est issu du protocole du même nom, propriétaire (brevet 5,918,019 aux États-Unis), écrit par Cisco.
Broadcast licenseA broadcast license is a type of spectrum license granting the licensee permission to use a portion of the radio frequency spectrum in a given geographical area for broadcasting purposes. The licenses generally include restrictions, which vary from band to band. Spectrum may be divided according to use. As indicated in a graph from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), frequency allocations may be represented by different types of services which vary in size.
Communication softwareCommunication software is used to provide remote access to systems and exchange files and messages in text, audio and/or video formats between different computers or users. This includes terminal emulators, programs, chat and instant messaging programs, as well as similar functionality integrated within MUDs. The term is also applied to software operating a bulletin board system, but seldom to that operating a computer network or Stored Program Control exchange.
