Pooled varianceIn statistics, pooled variance (also known as combined variance, composite variance, or overall variance, and written ) is a method for estimating variance of several different populations when the mean of each population may be different, but one may assume that the variance of each population is the same. The numerical estimate resulting from the use of this method is also called the pooled variance. Under the assumption of equal population variances, the pooled sample variance provides a higher precision estimate of variance than the individual sample variances.
Réseau sans filUn réseau sans fil est un réseau informatique numérique qui connecte différents postes ou systèmes entre eux par ondes radio. Il peut être associé à un réseau de télécommunications pour réaliser des interconnexions à distance entre nœuds. 1896 : Guglielmo Marconi réalise les premières transmissions sans fil (télégraphie sans fil) après que Nikola Tesla a déposé les premiers brevets dans ce domaine. 1980 : invention d'Internet et des normes 802 de l'IEEE. La norme la plus utilisée actuellement pour les réseaux sans fil est la norme IEEE 802.
Estimation statisticsEstimation statistics, or simply estimation, is a data analysis framework that uses a combination of effect sizes, confidence intervals, precision planning, and meta-analysis to plan experiments, analyze data and interpret results. It complements hypothesis testing approaches such as null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), by going beyond the question is an effect present or not, and provides information about how large an effect is. Estimation statistics is sometimes referred to as the new statistics.
Hop (networking)In wired computer networking, including the Internet, a hop occurs when a packet is passed from one network segment to the next. Data packets pass through routers as they travel between source and destination. The hop count refers to the number of network devices through which data passes from source to destination (depending on routing protocol, this may include the source/destination, that is, the first hop is counted as hop 0 or hop 1).
Network block deviceOn Linux, network block device (NBD) is a network protocol that can be used to forward a block device (typically a hard disk or partition) from one machine to a second machine. As an example, a local machine can access a hard disk drive that is attached to another computer. The protocol was originally developed for Linux 2.1.55 and released in 1997. In 2011 the protocol was revised, formally documented, and is now developed as a collaborative open standard. There are several interoperable clients and servers.
