As a consequence of the Nyquist – Shannon sampling theorem, any spatial waveform that can be displayed must consist of at least two pixels, which is proportional to image resolution.

It is estimated that the combined technological capacity of the world to store information provides 1, 300 exabytes of hardware digits in 2007, but when the corresponding content is optimally compressed, this only represents 295 exabytes of Shannon information.

Dublin Airport is the busiest airport in Ireland, followed by Cork and Shannon.

The Nyquist – Shannon sampling theorem states that a signal can be exactly reconstructed from its samples if the sampling frequency is greater than twice the highest frequency of the signal ; but requires an infinite number of samples.

“ Let the Music Play ”, by Shannon, is often named as the genre's first hit, and its sound, called " The Shannon Sound ," as the foundation of the genre.

A sufficient condition for recovering s ( t ) ( and therefore S ( ƒ )) from just these samples is that the non-zero portion of s ( t ) be confined to a known interval of duration P, which is the frequency domain dual of the Nyquist – Shannon sampling theorem.

When that interval is 0. 5 / T, the applicable reconstruction formula is the Whittaker – Shannon interpolation formula.

Bailiff Bull Shannon responds that it is " sudden flash of insight derived from a profound empathetic experience.

Information theory is generally considered to have been founded in 1948 by Claude Shannon in his seminal work, " A Mathematical Theory of Communication ".

Coding theory is concerned with finding explicit methods, called codes, of increasing the efficiency and reducing the net error rate of data communication over a noisy channel to near the limit that Shannon proved is the maximum possible for that channel.

The measure of sufficient randomness in extractors is min-entropy, a value related to Shannon entropy through Rényi entropy ; Rényi entropy is also used in evaluating randomness in cryptographic systems.

Although related, the distinctions among these measures mean that a random variable with high Shannon entropy is not necessarily satisfactory for use in an extractor and so for cryptography uses.

Equivalently, the Shannon entropy is a measure of the average information content one is missing when one does not know the value of the random variable.

However, if the coin is not fair, then the uncertainty is lower ( if asked to bet on the next outcome, we would bet preferentially on the most frequent result ), and thus the Shannon entropy is lower.

Perhaps the most dramatic moment in the war for Nova Scotia was when HMS Shannon escorted the captured American frigate USS Chesapeake into Halifax Harbour ( 1813 ).

Prior to turbo codes, such constructions were the most efficient, coming closest to the Shannon limit.

In Shannon – Fano coding, the symbols are arranged in order from most probable to least probable, and then divided into two sets whose total probabilities are as close as possible to being equal.

This version of Rollins Band had some of the most overt jazz leanings of the band's history: Gibbs had begun his career with the jazz fusion group of drummer Ronald Shannon Jackson, and worked with Sonny Sharrock on albums like 1987's Seize The Rainbow, which along with Rollins ' obsession with the late ' 60s / early ' 70s era of iconic trumpeter Miles Davis, shaped this version of the band's music.

Oversampling is used in most modern analog-to-digital converters to reduce the distortion introduced by practical digital-to-analog converters, such as a zero-order hold instead of idealizations like the Whittaker – Shannon interpolation formula.

One of the most interesting Martello towers is in Meelick, Co. Offaly, guarding the river crossing on the River Shannon.

: They have thrown on their shoulders the not easy task of breaking what is in reality an enormous inferiority complex and the Shannon Scheme is one-and probably the most vital-of their methods of doing it.
