With the source of light behind the copy, there is no loss of lumen output, as with conventional boards illuminated by means of reflected light.

Moreover, whereas in Interstate Commerce Commission parlance `` variable cost '' means a cost deemed to vary in direct proportion to changes in rate of output, in the type of analysis now under review `` variable cost '' has been used more broadly, so as to cover costs which, while a function of some one variable ( such as output of energy, or number of customers ), are not necessarily a linear function.

which means that we have analytically derived a formula for the output alpha and the output color of.

This means that the shortest program to output the first n bits of Ω must be of size at least n-O ( 1 ).

The printer's paper output is mainly a means of checking the Engine's performance.

For these, the contestants have to submit an output file instead of a program, and it is up to them whether they obtain the output files by writing a program ( possibly exploiting special characteristics of the input ), or by hand, or by a combination of these means.

A basic karaoke machine consists of a music player, microphone inputs, a means of altering the pitch of the played music, and an audio output.

This means that for an ideal optical system, the luminance at the output is the same as the input luminance.

The fact that a monopoly has a downward-sloping demand curve means that the relationship between total revenue and output for a monopoly is much different than that of competitive companies.

Most implementations produce a stable sort, which means that the implementation preserves the input order of equal elements in the sorted output.

By means of a series of electrodes ( dynodes ) at ever-higher potentials, these electrons are accelerated and substantially increased in number through secondary emission to provide a readily detectable output current.

In telecommunications, a multiplexer is a device that combines several input information signals into one output signal, which carries several communication channels, by means of some multiplex technique.

Practically, this means that the waveform at the input will be different from the waveform at the output of the link.

) The delay variation means that signals consisting of multiple frequency components will suffer distortion because these components are not delayed by the same amount of time at the output of the device.

This means they obey the superposition principle ; if F ( v ) is the output of a linear element with an input of v:

This means that the envelope of the output waveform is distorted.

This generally means that the operator needs to provide minimal input to achieve the desired output, and also that the machine minimizes undesired outputs to the human.

Historically, a crossbar switch consisted of metal bars associated with each input and output, together with some means of controlling movable contacts at each cross-point.

Thus, human capital is a means of production, into which additional investment yields additional output.

There are many variations of market socialism ranging from the cooperative model, where employee-owned enterprises based on self-management are coordinated by markets and output of final goods and services is based on market allocation, to those based on public ownership of the means of production.

A complete microphone also includes a housing, some means of bringing the signal from the element to other equipment, and often an electronic circuit to adapt the output of the capsule to the equipment being driven.

As a means of silencing a discussion which ought to have taken place, the statement is an effective one: we sympathize with the universal confusion which gives rise to such convictions.

But because it is the function of the mind to turn the one into the other by means of the capacities with which words endow it, we do not unwisely examine the type of distinction, in the sphere of politics, on which decisions hang.

It was said that the Hetman plotted to take over the entire Hearst newspaper empire one day by means of various coups: the destruction of editors who tried to halt his course, the unfrocking of publishers whose mistakes of judgment might be magnified in secret reports to Mr. Hearst.

It is obvious that the historian who seeks to recapture the ideas that have motivated human behavior throughout a given period will find the art and literature of that age one of his central and major concerns, by no means a mere supplement or adjunct of significant historical research.

Because of the means of publication -- science-fiction magazines and cheap paperbacks -- and because dystopian science fiction is still appearing in quantity the full range and extent of this phenomenon can hardly be known, though one fact is evident: the science-fiction imagination has been immensely fertile in its extrapolations.

-- Her choice of one color means she is simply enjoying the motor act of coloring, without having reached the point of selecting suitable colors for different objects.

One means to help the birds occurs to me: Let the chimes that ring over Washington Square twice daily, discontinue any piece of music but one.

For discouragement, or the temptation to abandon our efforts, `` would show that one placed excessive trust in purely human means without thinking of the omnipotence of God, the irresistible efficacy of prayer, the action of Christ or the power of the Divine Spirit ''.

It now means ominous, as when one speaks of a funny sound in the motor ; ;

It is conceived that one of the means to attain this social distance is that of physical and social isolation.

It was, too, an optimistic philosophy, and, though it separated law from morality, it was by no means an immoral or amoral one.

As the first collective confrontation of the Nazi outrage, the Trial of Eichmann represents a recovery of the Jews from the shock of the death camps, a recovery that took fifteen years and which is still by no means complete ( though let no one believe that it could be hastened by silence ).

Boun My -- the name means one who has a boun, a celebration, and is therefore lucky -- was born in Savannakhet, the Border of Paradise.

In the absence of a truly adequate conceptuality in which the gospel can be expressed, the unavoidable need to demythologize it makes use of whatever resources are at hand -- and this usually means one or another of the various forms of `` folk religion '' current in the situation.

It means to do it and to know one is doing it, but as only a secondary if certain effect of the good one primarily does and intends.

Compound comparisons typically compare two sets of groups means where one set has two or more groups ( e. g., compare average group means of group A, B and C with group D ).

" Without a clear Sinhala connection, they suggest one from the Tamil language instead: anai-kondra ( anaik-konda ), meaning " which killed an elephant .” Per National Geographic, the word anaconda comes from the Tamil word anaikolra, which means elephant killer.

Emigration to an uncivilized country leaves British nationality unaffected: indeed the right claimed by all states to follow with their authority their subjects so emigrating is one of the usual and recognized means of colonial expansion.
