    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_communication

    Data communication. Data communication, including data transmission and data reception, is the transfer of data, transmitted and received over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires, optical fibers, wireless communication using radio spectrum, storage media and computer buses.

  3. Data exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_exchange

    Data exchange. Data exchange is the process of taking data structured under a source schema and transforming it into a target schema, so that the target data is an accurate representation of the source data. [1] Data exchange allows data to be shared between different computer programs. It is similar to the related concept of data integration ...

  4. Diffusion of innovations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_of_innovations

    The origins of the diffusion of innovations theory are varied and span multiple disciplines. Rogers proposes that five main elements influence the spread of a new idea: the innovation itself, adopters, communication channels, time, and a social system. This process relies heavily on social capital. The innovation must be widely adopted in order ...

  5. Isotope separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotope_separation

    Isotope separation is the process of concentrating specific isotopes of a chemical element by removing other isotopes. The use of the nuclides produced is varied. The largest variety is used in research (e.g. in chemistry where atoms of "marker" nuclide are used to figure out reaction mechanisms). By tonnage, separating natural uranium into ...

  6. Information exchange - Wikipedia

    Information exchange. Information exchange or information sharing means that people or other entities pass information from one to another. This could be done electronically or through certain systems. [1] These are terms that can either refer to bidirectional information transfer in telecommunications and computer science or communication seen ...

  7. Indistinguishable particles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indistinguishable_particles

    Statistical mechanics. In quantum mechanics, indistinguishable particles (also called identical or indiscernible particles) are particles that cannot be distinguished from one another, even in principle. Species of identical particles include, but are not limited to, elementary particles (such as electrons ), composite subatomic particles (such ...

A contract typically involves the transfer of goods, services, money, or a promise to transfer any of those at a future date, and the activities and intentions of the parties entering into a contract may be referred to ...

  9. Locard's exchange principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locard's_exchange_principle

    The case studies below show how prevalent Locard's Exchange Principle is in each and every crime. [citation needed] The examples using Locard's Principle show not only how the transfer of trace evidence can tell the tale of what happened, [citation needed] [dubious – discuss] but also how much care is required when collecting and evaluating trace evidence.
