High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is the name given to an extension, Annex G, of the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video compression standard. H.264/MPEG-4 AVC was developed jointly by ITU-T and ISO/IEC JTC 1. These two groups created the Joint Video Team (JVT) to develop the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard.The objective of the SVC standardization has been to enable the encoding of a high-quality video bitstream that contains one or more subset bitstreams that can themselves be decoded with a complexity and reconstruction quality similar to that achieved using the existing H.264/MPEG-4 AVC design with the same quantity of data as in the subset bitstream. The subset bitstream is derived by dropping packets from the...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In telecommunications and software engineering, scalability is a desirable property of a system, a network, or a process, which indicates its ability to either handle growing amounts of work in a graceful manner or to be readily enlarged. For example, it can refer to the capability of a system to increase total throughput under an increased load when resources (typically hardware) are added. An analogous meaning is implied when the word is used in a commercial context, where scalability of a company implies that the underlying business model offers the potential for economic growth within the company.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A scale test car is a type of railroad car in maintenance of way service. Its purpose is to calibrate the weighing scales used to weigh loaded railroad cars. Cars are weighed to ensure they are within the axle load limits of the railroad, and to determine (by subtracting the car's unloaded, or tare weight from the total weight) the amount of cargo loaded. This is used to bill the railroad's customers for the carriage of bulk commodities, so it is essential that the track scales be accurate. Scale test cars are of a precisely known weight so that the track scale can be calibrated against them. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

The Scaled Composites Model 133-4.62 ATTT, or Advanced Technology Tactical Transport was a technology demonstration project built by Burt Rutan's Scaled Composites in 1986 under contract to DARPA. The aircraft built was a 62% scaled version of a proposed tandem wing STOL transport. The project's goal was to demonstrate novel applications of technology to enable new transport aircraft to operate out of shorter airfields. The core of this technology was a novel utilization of eight Fowler flaps, which proved quite successful. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии принт-он-деманд...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Scaled Composites Triumph was a twin-engine, business jet prototype designed and built by Burt Rutan's Scaled Composites for Beechcraft. It was known officially as the Model 143, and internally at Scaled as the "Tuna". Originally, three versions of the all-composite aircraft were envisioned, one powered by piston engines, one by turboprops and one by turbofans. The only one built was the turbofan version, which was first aircraft to be powered by the Williams International FJ-44 engine. The maiden flight took place at the Mojave Airport on July 12, 1988. The aircraft had a distinctive appearance, with both a canard and a standard horizontal stabilizer in a T-tail configuration....

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Scaled Composites Model 202 Boomerang is an aircraft designed by Burt Rutan, and built by his company, Scaled Composites. The design was intended to be a multi-engine airplane that would not become dangerously difficult to control in the event of failure of a single engine. The result is an aircraft with a very asymmetrical appearance.The Boomerang was designed around the specifications of the Beechcraft Baron 58, one of the best known and most numerous twin-engine civilian aircraft. The use of the asymmetrical design allows the Boomerang to fly faster and farther than the Baron using the same engines, and seating the same number of occupants[1]. The Boomerang is powered by two engines,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Scale-focus or zone-focus is a type of focusing system used by many inexpensive cameras from the 1940s and 1950s. These cameras have an adjustable focus, but lack a focusing aid such as a rangefinder. It is necessary to determine the distance to the subject and set the focus using a scale printed on the lens. If you are good at estimating distances, or have a tape measure at hand, you can get precise, sharp focus with one of these cameras. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

In 1981, the U.S. Army Aviators Jim Kreutz and Milo Burroughs requested that a study be undertaken for an LCBAA or Low Cost Battlefield Attack Aircraft, as there was a lack of adequate number of CAS aircraft to support the U.S. Army operations. It was decided that a fixed-wing aircraft with excellent maneuvering capabilities at very low altitudes and resistance to stall would be necessary. Burt Rutan decided to join this study and also to design an aircraft to meet the requirements. Данное издание не является...

Digital fiber-optic networks are the basis of today's communication infrastructure. The maximum capacity that can be transmitted over a single optical fiber is ultimately limited by the nonlinear properties of the fibre. The parameters of the link design are usually optimised by numeric simulations. Analytic descriptions of the nonlinear perturbation of the received signal can help to reduce the parameter space which has to be simulated. In order to expose the fundamental laws governing the nonlinear perturbation of the received signal, a simple analytic model is derived. A special emphasis of the work lies on the analysis of transmission systems with periodic compensation of the chromatic dispersion. Both amplitude-shift keying signals...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A scan line or scanline is one line, or row, in a raster scanning pattern, such as a video line on a cathode ray tube (CRT) display of a television or computer. On older CRT screens the horizontal scan lines were visually discernible, even when viewed from a distance, as alternating colored lines and black lines. This is sometimes used today as a visual effect in computer graphics. The term is used, by analogy, for a single row of pixels in a raster graphics image. Scan lines are important in representations of image data, because many image file formats have special rules for data at the end of a scan line. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

The objective is to make testing easier by providing a simple way to set and observe every flip-flop in an IC. A special signal called scan enable is added to a design. When this signal is asserted, every flip-flop in the design is connected into a long shift register, one input pin provides the data to this chain, and one output pin is connected to the output of the chain. Then using the chip's clock signal, an arbitrary pattern can be entered into the chain of flips flops, and/or the state of every flip flop can be read out. Данное издание не является оригинальным.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A scancode (or scan code) is the data that most computer keyboards send to a computer to report which keys have been pressed. A number, or sequence of numbers, is assigned to each key on the keyboard. Mapping key positions by row and column requires less complex computer hardware; therefore, in the past, using software or firmware to translate the scancodes to text characters was less expensive than wiring the keyboard by text character. This cost difference is not as profound as it used to be. However, many types of computers still use their traditional scancodes to maintain backward compatibility.
