Disability studiesDisability studies is an academic discipline that examines the meaning, nature, and consequences of disability. Initially, the field focused on the division between "impairment" and "disability", where impairment was an impairment of an individual's mind or body, while disability was considered a social construct. This premise gave rise to two distinct models of disability: the social and medical models of disability. In 1999 the social model was universally accepted as the model preferred by the field.
Adresse MACUne adresse MAC (de l'anglais Media Access Control), parfois nommée adresse physique, est un identifiant physique stocké dans une carte réseau ou une interface réseau similaire. Elle est unique au monde. Toutes les cartes réseau ont une adresse MAC, même celles contenues dans les PC et autres appareils connectés (tablette tactile, smartphone, consoles de jeux, réfrigérateurs, montres). MAC constitue la partie inférieure de la couche de liaison (couche 2 du modèle OSI). Elle insère et traite ces adresses au sein des trames transmises.
Water-sensitive urban designWater-sensitive urban design (WSUD) is a land planning and engineering design approach which integrates the urban water cycle, including stormwater, groundwater, and wastewater management and water supply, into urban design to minimise environmental degradation and improve aesthetic and recreational appeal. WSUD is a term used in the Middle East and Australia and is similar to low-impact development (LID), a term used in the United States; and Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS), a term used in the United Kingdom.
Trame verteLa trame verte (ou en France Trame verte et bleue) est un concept qui, dans les pays francophones, date des années 1980-1990. Il est en partie issu des travaux préparatoires au sommet de la Terre de Rio (1992), de l'écologie du paysage et du projet de réseau écologique paneuropéen alors préparé par le Conseil de l'Europe. Pour les années 1990 à 2005, cette expression couvre des réalités diverses, selon l'époque, le pays ou le domaine considérés (urbanisme, paysage, environnement, écologie urbaine et autres projets de collectivités locales, etc.
Address spaceIn computing, an address space defines a range of discrete addresses, each of which may correspond to a network host, peripheral device, disk sector, a memory cell or other logical or physical entity. For software programs to save and retrieve stored data, each datum must have an address where it can be located. The number of address spaces available depends on the underlying address structure, which is usually limited by the computer architecture being used.
Adresse physiqueIn computing, a physical address (also real address, or binary address), is a memory address that is represented in the form of a binary number on the address bus circuitry in order to enable the data bus to access a particular storage cell of main memory, or a register of memory-mapped I/O device. In a computer supporting virtual memory, the term physical address is used mostly to differentiate from a virtual address.
