* The ESS was a major element used to analyze evolution in Richard Dawkins ' bestselling 1976 book The Selfish Gene.

A semi-electronic switching system that had reed relays or crossbar matrices for its talk paths, as well as semiconductor components, was also considered to be an ESS in the 20th century.

The first Heil AMT headphone was marketed by ESS Laboratories and was essentially an ESS AMT tweeter from one of the company's speakers being driven at full range.

The No. 1 ESS was first installed in 1963.

The Economic and Scientific Section ( ESS ) group was also tasked with improving Japanese management skills and Edgar McVoy was instrumental in bringing Lowell Mellen to Japan to properly install the Training Within Industry ( TWI ) programs in 1951.

Prior to the arrival of Mellen in 1951, the ESS group had a training film to introduce the three TWI " J " programs ( Job Instruction, Job Methods and Job Relations )--- the film was titled " Improvement in 4 Steps " ( Kaizen eno Yon Dankai ).

Call waiting was introduced to North America in the early 1970s when the first generation of electronic switch machines built by Western Electric, the number 1 ESS started to replace older mechanical equipment in the old Bell System local telephone companies.

At first, some smaller municipalities had it only on a specific phone exchange ( e. g., phone customers in Trenton, Michigan initially had to have a phone number starting with 671 to have call waiting due fact 671 was at that time the only exchange in that area served by one of the new ESS switches ), but as demand for it became more widespread, it eventually became available on all phone exchanges as the older equipment was phased out.

By the 1990s, the mechanical Central Office Switches were rapidly being replaced with ESS machines ( Electronic Switching Systems ), and the Area Code logic was no longer necessary.

Most emergency special sessions span a single sitting — the tenth is the only ESS to have been resumed more than once ( the seventh emergency special session was resumed exactly once ).

ESPN STAR Sports ( ESS ) via its STAR Cricket channel was the official broadcaster of the 2011 Cricket World Cup Final experienced all-time high viewership ( 67. 6 million only on Cable and satellite ) and TRPs, and had raised ad rates for 10 second slots during the finals to, prior to the finals.

Employee John Potter had helped Blackwater win the contract to provide security for kitchen equipment convoys for the Kuwait company Regency Hotel and Hospital Company and Eurest Support Services ( ESS was a subcontractor of Halliburton KBR ).

The technology introduced and rolled out to RBOCs from Bellcore in April 1995, ( very soon after the introduction of CLASS-based services through ESS ), was marketed by the RBOCs who implemented it, as a way to streamline all available custom calling options through the use of a screen-based telephone ; giving Residential and Small Business telephone subscribers PBX-like functionality at home or in SOHO locations at a significantly lower cost.

Outline planning permission for the ESS was conditionally granted by Selby District Council on 14 September 2005.

The final of the Champions League that year was a memorable one, as ESS played Al-Ahly in a repeat of the 2005 final.

MF was also used by Crossbar and ESS exchanges.

In the United States the Bell System ( AT & T ) also used twistors with permanent magnets as the " Program Store " or main memory in their first, groundbreaking, electronic telephone switching system, the 1ESS as well as others in the ESS series of electronic telephone switches, and did so up to the 4ESS switch introduced in 1976 and sold into the 1980s.

The first leg finished 0-0 in Sousse, and with ESS huge underdogs, they won 3-1 in Egypt to take the trophy.

First developed in 1973, the ESS is widely used in behavioural ecology and economics, and has been used in anthropology, evolutionary psychology, philosophy, and political science.

* In evolutionary psychology, ESS is used primarily as a model for human biological evolution.

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale ( ESS ), an eight item questionnaire with scores ranging from 0 to 24, is another tool used to screen for potential sleep debt.

In statistics, the explained sum of squares ( ESS ), alternatively known as the Model Sum of Squares or Sum of Squares due to Regression, is a quantity used in describing how well a model, often a regression model, represents the data being modelled.

* In the social sciences, the primary interest is not in an ESS as the end of biological evolution, but as an end point in cultural evolution or individual learning.

In game theory, behavioural ecology, and evolutionary psychology, an evolutionarily stable strategy ( ESS ) is a strategy which, if adopted by a population of players in a given environment, cannot be invaded by any alternative strategy that is initially rare.

In 1973 Maynard Smith formalised a central concept in evolutionary game theory called the evolutionarily stable strategy ( ESS ), based on a verbal argument by George R. Price.

Each ESS is identified by a service set identifier ( SSID ); for an IBSS, the SSID is chosen by the client device that starts the network, and broadcasting of the SSID is performed in a pseudo-random order by all devices that are members of the network.

Over time the population mix in such a system may converge to a stationary state – and if such a state cannot be invaded by any new “ mutant strategies ” it is by definition and Evolutionary Stable State ( ESS )

Indeed, more than ten separate ' meetings ' have been held by the Assembly, whilst sitting in tenth ESS, since the Year 2000.

Much of his work from the 1970s onwards has related to the application of game theory ( theory of games ) to various biological problems, using the evolutionarily stable strategy ( ESS ) approach pioneered by John Maynard Smith and George Price.

After the November 2006 elections, Indiana launched an inquiry into poor service by the company, settling when ESS agreed to pay $ 750, 000.

To facilitate prompt action by the General Assembly in the case of a dead-locked Security Council, the resolution created the mechanism of the " emergency special session " ( ESS ), which can be called upon the basis of either a procedural vote in the Security Council, or within twenty-four hours of a request by a majority of UN Members being received by the Secretary-General.

Indeed, more than ten separate ' meetings ' have been held by the Assembly, whilst sitting in tenth ESS, since 2000.

2007 – 2008 a new era has started with Hamdi Meddeb as president and Tarek Dhiab at the helm of the football pyramid monitoring the heart of the team, Esperance has triumphed over ESS by winning a record 13th President Cup.

It operates cargo and passenger air services for humanitarian aid provided by UN MovCon, WFP, UNICEF, UNOPS, ESS, MSF, FAO and IRC, using aircraft and helicopters covering most areas of Sudan.

For some time in the early 21st century there were plans that the airfield might be developed as the site of the European Spallation Source ( ESS ), a particle accelerator facility to generate neutrons by spallation.

The main contribution to be had from this book is the introduction of the Evolutionarily Stable Strategy, or ESS, concept, which states that for a set of behaviours to be conserved over evolutionary time, they must be the most profitable avenue of action when common, so that no alternative behaviour can invade.

An ESS is an equilibrium refinement of the Nash equilibrium.

In fact, the ESS has become so central to game theory that often no citation is given, as the reader is assumed to be familiar with it.

To be an ESS, a strategy must be resistant to these alternatives.

In fact, every ESS corresponds to a Nash equilibrium, but some Nash equilibria are not ESSes.

Two major facilities for materials research are currently under construction in Lund: MAX IV, which will be a world-leading synchrotron radiation laboratory and European Spallation Source ( ESS ), a European facility that will be home to the world ’ s most powerful neutron source.

Since z / VSE 3. 1, Fibre Channel access to storage devices is supported, although only on IBM's Enterprise Storage Server ( ESS ) and its successors.

The 5ESS came to market as the Western Electric No. 5 ESS, later 5ESS, 5ESS-2000, 5E-XC and is currently marketed as the Alcatel-Lucent 5ESS.

Other 5XB in the next few years were installed with IDDD as original equipment, and in the 1970s ESS offices also provided the service.

ESS, a California manufacturer, licensed the design, employed Heil, and produced a range of speaker systems using his tweeters during the 1970s and 1980s.

In past decades, ESS of California produced a series of hybrid loudspeakers using such tweeters, along with conventional woofers, referring to them as Heil transducers after their inventor, Oskar Heil.

Within exon 2 an exonic splicing silencer sequence ( ESS ) and an exonic splicing enhancer sequence ( ESE ) overlap.

If A1 repressor protein binds to the ESS, it initiates cooperative binding of multiple A1 molecules, extending into the 5 ’ donor site upstream of exon 2 and preventing the binding of the core splicing factor U2AF35 to the polypyrimidine tract.
