One of the predecessors of Alcatel-Lucent, the Bell Telephone Manufacturing Company, developed the BTMC DPS-1500 packet-switching ( X. 25 ) network and used PDP-11s in the regional and national network management system, with the Unibus directly connected to the DPS-1500 hardware.

One significant example of the use of piezoelectric crystals was developed by Bell Telephone Laboratories.

Inc. v. Northwestern Bell Telephone Co .) Continuity is both a closed and open ended concept, referring to either a closed period of conduct, or to past conduct that by its nature projects into the future with a threat of repetition.

Bell Laboratories operates its headquarters at, United States, and has research and development facilities throughout the world.

The first major model for communication was introduced by by Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver for Bell Laboratories in 1949 The original model was designed to mirror the functioning of radio and telephone technologies.

Max Mathews at Bell Laboratories developed the influential MUSIC I program and its descendents, further popularising computer music through a 1962 article in Science.

The Bell Laboratories Mark V computer implemented decimal floating point in 1946.

Bell Laboratories began experimenting with wider-range recording techniques in the early 1930s.

The example program from that book prints "" ( without capital letters or exclamation mark ), and was inherited from a 1974 Bell Laboratories internal memorandum by Brian Kernighan, Programming in C: A Tutorial, which contains the first known version:

In the first case, Agin discussed falsified results in the development of organic transistors: ' As far as understanding junk science is concerned, the important aspect is that both Bell Laboratories and the international physics community were fooled until someone noticed that noise records published by Jan Hendrik Schön in several papers were identical-which means physically impossible.

Alastair Cook scored 189 and both Ian Bell and Matt Prior made centuries.

* 1973 – Martin Cooper of Motorola made the first handheld mobile phone call to Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs, though it took ten years for the DynaTAC 8000X to become the first such phone to be commercially released.

* Bell ( cyclecar ), a British 3 wheeled cyclecar made in 1920 by W. G.

Accompanying the speculation was a change in the critical reaction to Charlotte's work and accusations were made that the writing was " coarse ", a judgment more readily made once it was suspected that " Currer Bell " was a woman.

The 1970s were not much better, with the Indians trading away several future stars, including Graig Nettles, Dennis Eckersley, Buddy Bell and 1971 Rookie of the Year Chris Chambliss, for a number of players who made no impact.

Concerning information processing, DARPA made great progress, initially through its support of the development of time-sharing ( all modern operating systems rely on concepts invented for the Multics system, developed by a cooperation among Bell Labs, General Electric and MIT, which DARPA supported by funding Project MAC at MIT with an initial two-million-dollar grant ).

Ernest Hemingway in For Whom the Bell Tolls made deliberate use of false friends as one of the devices intended to convey to the reader that English conversations in the book in fact represent Spanish.

Together with William Losh, Stephenson improved the design of cast iron rails to reduce breakage ; these were briefly made by Losh, Wilson and Bell at their Walker ironworks.

He made two films with Curtis, three films with Kovacs ( Operation Mad Ball, Bell, Book and Candle, and It Happened to Jane ), and eleven with Matthau.

The machine, although made in 1886, was a duplicate of one made earlier but taken to Europe by Chichester Bell.

Denis Rousseau and Sergio Porto of Bell Labs carried out infrared spectrum analysis which showed polywater was made mostly of chlorine and sodium.

During 1955-85, solid state technology research and development at Stanford University followed three waves of industrial innovation made possible by support from private corporations, mainly Bell Telephone Laboratories, Shockley Semiconductor, Fairchild Semiconductor, and Xerox PARC.

The first two seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise depict the exploration of interstellar space by the crew of an Earth ship able to go farther and faster into outer space than any humans had previously gone, due to the breaking of the Warp 5 barrier that made interstellar travel feasible, analogous to the Bell X-1 breaking the sound barrier.

Historian Barbara Bell suggests that the paintings may have been made for tourists on Seneca Lake boat tours

She also secured private contributions to purchase an outdoor sculpture, “ The Berkeley Peace Bell ”, made from melted guns.

Ken Thompson of the Plan 9 operating system group at Bell Labs then made a small but crucial modification to the encoding, making it very slightly less bit-efficient than the previous proposal but allowing it to be self-synchronizing, meaning that it was no longer necessary to read from the beginning of the string to find code point boundaries.

Notable athletes are Whitehorse born hockey players Bryon Baltimore, who made it to the Los Angeles Kings in 1974, and Peter Sturgeon who played for the Colorado Rockies in 1974, Whitehorse born olympic cyclist Zachary Bell, Whitehorse raised olympic weightlifter Jeane Lassen who won medals in several world competitions, Whitehorse born basketball players Aaron Olson, and 1984 Olympics centre for Team Canada Greg Wiltjer.

The Bell team made many attempts to build such a system with various tools, but generally failed.

Customers were prohibited from connecting equipment not made or sold by Bell to the network.

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 made extensive revisions to the " Title II " provisions regarding common carriers and repealed the judicial 1982 AT & T consent decree ( often referred to as the " modification of final judgment " or " MFJ ") that effectuated the breakup of AT & T's Bell System.

In the 1950s negative impedance gain devices were more popular, and a transistorized version called the E6 repeater was the final major type used in the Bell System before the low cost of digital transmission made all voiceband repeaters obsolete.

In November 1696, a subsequent claim was made to the island by Sir Peter van Bell, the agent of Sir Joseph Shepheard, a Rotterdam merchant, who claimed to have purchased Tortola on 21 June 1695, for 3, 500 guilders.
