Once the fringes are obtained in the Michelson – Morley experiment, when one of the mirrors is moved away gradually, the time for the beam to travel increases and the infringes become dull and finally are lost, showing Temporal Coherence.

Beaugrande and Dressler define a text as a “ communicative occurrence which meets seven standards of textuality ” – Cohesion, Coherence, Intentionality, Acceptability, Informativity, Situationality and Intertextuality, without any of which the text will not be communicative.

Coherence is the quality of a wave to display well defined phase relationship in different regions of its domain of definition.

Coherence can be best defined as the degree to which a story makes sense structurally.

Coherence defines the behavior of reads and writes to the same memory location.

* Coherence: the degree to which the individual sub models of a way of modeling constitute a whole.

The Coherence of Gothic Conventions.

Coherence theories distinguish the thought of rationalist philosophers, particularly of Spinoza, Leibniz, and G. W. F.

Closed-loop mirror galvanometers are also used in stereolithography, in laser sintering, in laser engraving, in laser beam welding, in laser TV, in laser displays, and in imaging applications such as Optical Coherence Tomography ( OCT ) retinal scanning.

Coherence length is usually applied to the optical regime.

Coherence was a design aim of SI resulting in only one unit of energy being defined-the joule.

This equation is just an approximation, to be exact, see Coherence time.

Cache Coherence, implemented using the MESI protocols, was very complicated but significantly improved performance.

To minimize latency and avoid bottlenecks, distributed computing can benefit significantly from distributed caches like AppFabric Caching Service, NCache, Oracle Coherence, IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale, Memcached, Ehcache etc.

Most narrowly, one may consider numbers explicitly defined in terms of polynomials, exponentials, and logarithms – this does not include algebraic numbers, but does include some simple transcendental numbers such as e or log ( 2 ).

* Queen Victoria – the British Weights and Measures Act of 1878 defined it as containing 4, 840 square yards.

It is named after Ernst Abbe ( 1840 – 1905 ), the German physicist who defined it.

One common version, the two-argument Ackermann – Péter function, is defined as follows for nonnegative integers m and n:

As defined by Arrhenius, acid – base reactions are characterized by Arrhenius acids, which dissociate in aqueous solution to form hydrogen ions (), and Arrhenius bases, which form hydroxide () ions.

More recent IUPAC recommendations now suggest the newer term " hydronium " be used in favor of the older accepted term " oxonium " to illustrate reaction mechanisms such as those defined in the Brønsted – Lowry and solvent system definitions more clearly, with the Arrhenius definition serving as a simple general outline of acid – base character.

In mathematics, the arithmetic – geometric mean ( AGM ) of two positive real numbers and is defined as follows:

In May 1916 the governments of the United Kingdom, France and Russia agreed the Sykes – Picot Agreement, which defined their proposed spheres of influence and control in Western Asia should the Triple Entente succeed in defeating the Ottoman Empire during World War I.

The percentage of Chileans with household incomes below the poverty line – defined as twice the cost of satisfying a person's minimal nutritional needs – fell from 45. 1 % in 1987 to 13. 7 % in 2006, according to government polls.

The end of the Cretaceous is defined by the K – Pg boundary, a geologic signature associated with the mass extinction which lies between the Mesozoic and Cenozoic Eras.

And in a proof-sketch added as an " Appendix " to his 1936 – 37 paper, Turing showed that the classes of functions defined by λ-calculus and Turing machines coincided.

Indeed, following, suppose ƒ is a complex function defined in an open set Ω ⊂ C. Then, writing for every z ∈ Ω, one can also regard Ω as an open subset of R < sup > 2 </ sup >, and ƒ as a function of two real variables x and y, which maps Ω ⊂ R < sup > 2 </ sup > to C. We consider the Cauchy – Riemann equations at z = 0 assuming ƒ ( z ) = 0, just for notational simplicity – the proof is identical in general case.

Andrew Lo asserts that Zhou Mi meant dominoes when referring to pupai, since the Ming author Lu Rong ( 1436 – 1494 ) explicitly defined pupai as dominoes ( in regards to a story of a suitor who won a maiden's hand by drawing out four winning pupai from a set ).

* 1948 – The United Nations passes General Assembly Resolution 194, which established and defined the role of the United Nations Conciliation Commission as an organization to facilitate peace in the British Mandate for Palestine.

Rome herself ( including her environs, as defined by a-radius perimeter around the City itself ) was not under the authority of the praetorian prefect, as she was to be administered by a City Prefect of senatorial rank – the sole prestigious post with actual power reserved exclusively for senators, except for some governors in Italy with the titles of corrector and the proconsuls of Asia and Africa.

* Tarski's axioms: Alfred Tarski ( 1902 – 1983 ) and his students defined elementary Euclidean geometry as the geometry that can be expressed in first-order logic and does not depend on set theory for its logical basis, in contrast to Hilbert's axioms, which involve point sets.

When used in science, for example geology, eras denote clearly defined periods of time of arbitrary but well defined length, such as for example the Mesozoic Era from 252 Ma – 66 Ma, delimited by a start event and an end event.

Council of Trent ( 1545 – 1563, with interruptions ) addressed church reform and repudiated Protestantism, defined the role and canon of Scripture and the seven sacraments, and strengthened clerical discipline and education. Temporarily attended by Lutheran delegates.

First Council of the Vatican ( 1870 ; officially, 1870 – 1960 ) defined pope's primacy in church governance and his infallibility, repudiated rationalism, materialism and atheism, addressed revelation, interpretation of scripture and the relationship of faith and reason.

An impression has sometimes arisen that ephemeris time was in use from 1900: this probably arose because ET, though proposed and adopted in the period 1948 – 1952, was defined in detail using formulae that made retrospective use of the epoch date of 1900 January 0 and of Newcomb's Tables of the Sun.

Much more forest land – about 40 percent of the total forest land base – is subject to varying degrees of protection through processes such as integrated land use planning or defined management areas such as certified forests ( Natural Resources Canada ).
