64661Techniques in microbiology : a student handbook
Lammert’s approach is visual and incorporates “voice balloons” that keep the student focused on the process described. The techniques are those that will be used frequently for studying microbes in the laboratory, and include those identified by the American Society for Microbiology in its recommendations for the Microbiology Laboratory Core Curriculum (recommendations in which the author participated).
64662Technobabble
"Technobabble": the pervasive and indiscriminate use of computer terminology, especially as it is applied to situations that have nothing at all to do with technology. "Technobabble examines the new computer lexicon from an etymological, historical, and anecdotal perspective. It reveals technobabble's origins among the "high priests" of the advanced research laboratories of the 1950s, describing the folkways by which this sublanguage becomes incorporated into the vocabulary of the larger society, and predicting some of the new dimensions technobabble is likely to assume in coming years.
64663Techno-economic balance of load-adaptive telecommunication network operation for energy efficiency improvements
Load-adaptive telecommunication network operation has crystallized as a promising option for improving the network energy efficiency. On the one hand significant energy savings are expected when the network capacity follows the traffic load, on the other hand efforts for preparing networks for this kind of dynamic operation are necessary regarding, for example, systems and network processes. To account for all this, an energy-related and a generalized techno-economic balance is developed. Results calculated for exemplary traffic load curves and boundary conditions show that there are significant monetary benefits to be expected in particular in case of moderate validity periods of the network configurations. Furthermore, the need to evaluate the load-adaptive network operation case from a techno-economic viewpoint carefully before employing it in a particular telecommunication network becomes evident.
