A relatively simple switching arrangement reverses the cycle so that the machine literally runs backward, and the heat is extracted from outdoor air and turned indoors.

The same counter is used in both the continuous and non-continuous graphics modes and switching modes mid-frame does not cause any adjustment to the counter.

The VPI is useful for reducing the switching table of some virtual circuits which have common paths.

Belarus is switching from an analog to digital broadcast television.

In general, a component that is switching uses more energy than an element in a static state.

One method of dealing with the switching of unneeded components is called clock gating, which involves turning off the clock signal to unneeded components ( effectively disabling them ).

This contrast is brought out in issues such as voluntary euthanasia-a pure consequentialist would see no moral difference between allowing a patient to die by, for example, withholding food ; switching off their life-support machine ; or actively killing them with harmful drugs.

# hardware context switching does not save all the registers ( only general purpose registers, not floating point registers — although the TS bit is automatically turned on in the CR0 control register, resulting in a fault when executing floating point instructions and giving the OS the opportunity to save and restore the floating point state as needed ).

It is a set of hardware and software functions that provide switching, accounting, registration, authentication, encryption, and so on.

This service involves installing a special telephone interface at the customer's premises that converts the analog signals from the customer's in-home wiring into a digital signal, which is then sent on the local loop ( replacing the analog last mile, or Plain old telephone service ( POTS )) to the company's switching center, where it is connected to the Public switched telephone network ( PSTN ).

The best option for users of Windows XP having rotated LCD displays ( Tablet PCs or swivel-stand LCD displays ) is using regular anti-aliasing, or switching off font-smoothing altogether.

The comic strip's popular success is attributable to its workplace setting and themes, which are familiar to a large and appreciative audience ; Adams said that switching the setting from Dilbert's home to his office was " when the strip really started to take off.

Dual-tone multi-frequency signaling ( DTMF ) is used for telecommunication signaling over analog telephone lines in the voice-frequency band between telephone handsets and other communications devices and the switching center.

Electronics is distinct from electrical and electro-mechanical science and technology, which deals with the generation, distribution, switching, storage and conversion of electrical energy to and from other energy forms using wires, motors, generators, batteries, switches, relays, transformers, resistors and other passive components.

More often, however, there is an ecological distribution of Symbiodinium, the symbionts switching between hosts with apparent ease.

A typical Broca's aphasic patient will misinterpret " the dog is bitten by the man " by switching the subject and object.

The term class D is usually applied to devices intended to reproduce signals with a bandwidth well below the switching frequency.

The erlang ( symbol E ) is a dimensionless unit that is used in telephony as a measure of offered load or carried load on service-providing elements such as telephone circuits or telephone switching equipment.

Since the 1990s a growing number of artists are switching to non-permanent paints for a variety of reasons — but primarily because is it difficult for the police to apprehend and for the courts to sentence or even convict a person for a protest that is as fleeting and less intrusive than marching in the streets.

Artists whose primary object is to assert control over property — and not primarily to create of an expressive work of art, political or otherwise — resist switching to impermanent paints.

Toggling the switch is performed by the unidirectional change of the GTPase from the active, GTP-bound form to the inactive, GDP-bound form by hydrolysis of the GTP through intrinsic GTPase-activity, effectively switching the GTPase off.

GPRS is a best-effort service, implying variable throughput and latency that depend on the number of other users sharing the service concurrently, as opposed to circuit switching, where a certain quality of service ( QoS ) is guaranteed during the connection.

If the computer has a PFC power supply, this will increase the power efficiency as well, as the cheap switching power supplies included with LCD monitors rarely implement PFC.

The LCD shutter glasses rapidly alternate between the left and right lenses being opaque, used in tandem with two different alternating images flashed from the TV synchronized with the switching of the 3-D Glasses to create a natural stereoscopic 3D effect.

To counteract this effect, and improve switching speed, LCD displays use an Active matrix addressing of transparent thin-film transistors to directly switch each shutter.

It also refers to integrated switching and transmission in that telephone switching and carrier wave transmission are integrated rather than separate as in earlier technology.

LEDs have allowed new text, video displays, and sensors to be developed, while their high switching rates are also useful in advanced communications technology.

* Optical switching technology, which is used for switching technology and alignment for data communications

The original ROM size spec was later enhanced on cartridges with bank switching memory technology, increasing the maximum cartridge size to around 716 Mbit.

Packet radio is a form of packet switching technology used to transmit digital data via radio or wireless communications links.

This article is concerned primarily with routing in electronic data networks using packet switching technology.

The original dial designs were rather cumbersome and development continued during the 1890s and early 1900s hand in hand with the switching technology.

Frame Relay is a standardized wide area network technology that specifies the physical and logical link layers of digital telecommunications channels using a packet switching methodology.

* Dynamic synchronous transfer mode, a revival of circuit switching technology for broadband traffic

Virtual circuit switching is a packet switching technology that emulates circuit switching, in the sense that the connection is established before any packets are transferred, and packets are delivered in order.

As the technology developed, with faster switching speeds ( increasing emissions ) and lower circuit voltages ( increasing susceptibility ), EMC increasingly became a source of concern.

Layer 4 switching is considered a hardware-based layer 3 switching technology that can also consider the application used ( for example, Telnet or FTP ).

Asynchronous Transfer Mode ( ATM ) also is a virtual circuit technology, which uses fixed-length cell relay connection oriented packet switching.

This technology is called packet switching.

Successive generations of technology produced compatible parts with improved power consumption or switching speed, or both.

Electronic power switching technology eliminates the need for the generator to be synchronized with the power grid.
