Frame rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Frame rate is most often expressed in frames per second (often abbreviated "fps", but not to be confused with FPS or first-person shooter) or, equivalently, Hertz (Hz). The frame rate is related to but not identical to a physiological concept called the flicker fusion threshold or flicker fusion rate. These rates would be impractical for the actual frame rate of most film mechanisms so the shutter in the projection devices is actually arranged to interrupt the light two or three times for every film frame. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Frame_rate   (1260 words)

Space frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Space frames are an increasingly common architectural technique especially for large roof spans in modernist commercial and industrial buildings. Space frames were independently developed by Buckminster Fuller in the 1950s and Alexander Graham Bell around 1900. A space frame is a truss-like, lightweight rigid structure constructed from interlocking struts in a geometric pattern. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Space_frame   (395 words)

Frame problem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The name “frame problem” derives from a common technique used by animated cartoon makers called framing where the currently moving parts of the cartoon are superimposed on the “frame”, which depicts the background of the scene, which does not change. In artificial intelligence, the frame problem was initially formulated as the problem of expressing a dynamical domain in logic without explicitely specifying which conditions are not affected by an action.

Frame story - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A frame story (also frame tale, frame narrative, etc.) is a narrative technique whereby a main story is composed, at least in part, for the purpose of organizing a set of shorter stories, each of which is a story within a story. Many of Scheherezade's tales are also frame stories, such as Tale of Sindbad the Seaman and Sindbad the Landsman is a collection of adventures related by Sindbad the Seaman to Sindbad the Landsman. This literary device often acts as a convenient conceit for the organization of a set of smaller narratives which are either of the devising of the author, or taken from a previous stock of popular tales slightly altered by the author for the purpose of the longer narrative. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Frame_Narrative   (571 words)

Video frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The video frame is also sometimes used as a unit of time, being variously 1/24, 1/25 or 1/30 of a second, so that a momentary event might be said to last 6 frames. When the moving picture is displayed, each frame is flashed on a screen for a short time (nowadays, usually 1/24th, 1/25th or 1/30th of a second) and then immediately replaced by the next one. In film projection, 24 frames/s is the norm, except in some special venue systems, such as IMAX, Showscan and Iwerks 70, where 30, 48 or even 60 frames/s have been used. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Frame_(film)   (279 words)

Frame story - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A frame story (also frame tale, frame narrative, etc.) is a narrative technique whereby a main story is composed, at least in part, for the purpose of organizing a set of shorter stories, each of which is a story within a story. As with all literary conceits, the frame tale has many variations, some clearly within the confines of the conceit, some on the border, and some pushing the boundaries of understanding. Many of Shahrazad's tales are also frame stories, such as Tale of Sindbad the Seaman and Sindbad the Landsman is a collection of adventures related by Sindbad the Seaman to Sindbad the Landsman. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Frame_tale   (279 words)

Digital Signal 1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Terminal frame alignment channel is carried in odd-numbered frames inside the super frame and occurs with the DS0 channel synchronization. Signaling frame alignment channel is carried in even-numbered frames inside the super frame and is used for signaling frame alignment. Signaling frames are identified by the framing signal's transition from 1 to 0 and from 0 to 1; thereby frames six and twelve carry signaling information. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/DS1   (279 words)

Frame story - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A frame story (also frame tale, frame narrative, etc.) is a narrative technique whereby a main story is composed, at least in part, for the purpose of organizing a set of shorter stories, each of which is a story within a story. An early example of the frame story is The Book of One Thousand and One Nights, in which the character Shahrazad narrates a set of fairy tales to the King Shahriyar over many nights. Many of Shahrazad's tales are also frame stories, such as Tale of Sindbad the Seaman and Sindbad the Landsman is a collection of adventures related by Sindbad the Seaman to Sindbad the Landsman. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Frame_tale   (566 words)

Frame of reference - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch Frames of reference are especially important in special relativity, because when a frame of reference is moving at some significant fraction of the speed of light, then the flow of time in that frame does not necessarily apply in another reference frame. A frame of reference in physics is a set of axes which enable an observer to measure the aspect, position and motion of all points in a system relative to the reference frame. An accelerated frame of reference is often delineated as being the "primed" frame, and all variables that are dependent on that frame are notated with primes, e.g. encyclopedia.worldsearch.com /frame_of_reference.htm   (566 words)

Key frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In animation, a key frame is a frame in an animated sequence of frames that was drawn or otherwise constructed directly by the user. In non-linear digital video editing, a key frame is a frame used to indicate the beginning or end of a change made to the signal. It is often followed by one or more inter frames which are calculated from the preceding key frame. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Key_frame   (198 words)

Janet Frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Janet Frames was delivered at St Helens Hospital, Dunedin, by Dr. Emily Hancock Siedeberg, New Zealand's first female medical graduate. Janet Paterson Frame ONZ, CBE, (August 28, 1924- January 29, 2004) was a New Zealand writer. Frame's education included time at Oamaru North School and Waitaki Girls' High School, then from 1943 Dunedin Teachers College, with part-time study of English, French, and Psychology at the nearby University of Otago. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Janet_Frame   (1007 words)

Inertial frame of reference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Inertial frames of reference are relevant to Newtonian relativity and Einstein's special theory of relativity. However, the assumption of constant progression of proper time in all frames of reference is replaced by the assumption that the speed of light is constant, and that this is equally true for every inertial observer. This phenomenon of geodesic deviation means that inertial frames of reference do not exist globally as they do in Newtonian mechanics and special relativity. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference   (602 words)

Gold frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A Gold frame is a military decoration which is issued by most of the world’s militaries as an attachment to certain awards and decorations. The gold frame is designed to enclose an award ribbon and is usually a means of distinguishing the ribbon’s special quality or denoting some additional achievement to the award's basic criteria. Gold frames are also a one time decoration, as there are obviously no means of denoting multiple gold frames on a single award ribbon. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Gold_frame   (602 words)

Water frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In 1771, Arkwright installed the water frame in his cotton mill at Cromford, Derbyshire, England, on the River Derwent, creating one of the first factories that were specifically built to house machinery, rather than just bringing workers together. The water frame is an extension of the spinning frame; both of which are credited to Richard Arkwright. John Kay, the clock maker/mechanic who help Highs build the water frame was duped, by Arkwright, into giving up the design. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Water_Frame   (176 words)

Digital Signal 1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Terminal frame alignment channel is carried in odd-numbered frames inside the super frame and occurs with the DS0 channel synchronization. Signaling frames are identified by the framing signal's transition from 1 to 0 and from 0 to 1; thereby frames six and twelve carry signaling information. Frame synchronization is necessary to identify the timeslots within each 24-channel frame. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/DS1   (1169 words)

Encyclopedia: Subcategorization frame Subcategorization frames are specifications of the number and types of arguments of a word, and they are believed to be listed as lexical information (that is, they are thought of as part of a speaker's knowledge of the word in the vocabulary of the language). Subcategorization frames are essental parts of Carl Pollard and Ivan Sag's Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar and Joan Bresnan's lexical functional grammar. In syntactic linguistic theory, the subcategorization frame of a word is the number and types of syntactic arguments that it co-occurs with (i.e. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Subcategorization-frame   (1169 words)

Threadframe: multithreaded stack frame extraction for Python It basically has a single function that will return a list of the stack frames for all Python interpreter threads in the process. Bob also noticed that thread_id was added to the Python interpreter state, and contributed a patch to get a dictionary mapping thread_ids to frames instead of a list. There is a small test program test.py that illustrates how to use this module to dump stack frames of all the Python interpreter threads. www.majid.info /mylos/stories/2004/06/10/threadframe.html   (1169 words)

Refresh rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The scan rate is controlled by the vertical sync signal generated by the video controller, ordering the monitor to position the electron gun at the upper left corner of the raster, ready to paint another frame. The refresh rate (or "vertical refresh rate", "vertical scan rate") is the maximum number of frames that can be displayed on a monitor (or television) in a second, expressed in hertz. The refresh rate can be calculated from the horizontal scan rate by dividing by the number of horizontal lines and multiplying the result by 0.95 (since about 5% of the time it takes to scan the screen is spent moving the electron gun back to the top). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Refresh_rate   (539 words)

Frame Problem Since then, the frame problem has achieved a famous—or rather notorious—reputation in the Artificial Intelligence community as an example of a seemingly simple, specific problem in AI uncovering deeper and even philosophical difficulties for the task of creating artificial intelligence. Since its original statement as a representational problem in the situation calculus, many researchers in AI have come to see the frame problem as a frustratingly general problem for machine reasoning. In its original formulation the frame problem described a stubborn difficulty arising in a first-order logic formulation, the situation calculus, in specifying which things remain unchanged when reasoning about changes in a domain. www.iscid.org /encyclopedia/Frame_Problem   (578 words)

Frame language -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article Frame languages are rather focused on the recognition and description of objects classes, and relations and interactions are considered as "secondary". Frame language is a (additional info and facts about meta language) meta language. In such sense, for example: ((computer science) a programming language that enables the programmer to associate a set of procedures with each type of data structure) Object-oriented programming languages are frame languages, but also every grammar is a frame language. www.absoluteastronomy.com /encyclopedia/f/fr/frame_language.htm   (124 words)

DFF The DFF is analogous to the Frenet Frame used in studying space curves, but it can be used when the curve is just a sequence of points such as is found in pdb file. A useful tool for studying proteins is the Discrete Frenet Frame (DFF). www.math.fsu.edu /~quine/IntroMathBio_03/DFF   (124 words)

diff geo images page For this longer thinner frame we take the initial conditions to be the same as those for torus knot Frenet frame, at a point on the torus knot where curvature is small and torsion is large (right after the first 'hilltop' is crossed by the torus knot Frenet frame). One can pick 'any' two (say smooth) functions, K[ t ] and T[ t ] to play the roles of the curvature and torsion functions appearing in the Frenet frame equations, and a solution curve to those equations is obtained, C [ t ; K ; T ] (given initial conditions). The alpha[ t ; n ] curve is obtained by solving the Frenet frame equations numerically with a program Gray wrote using the Mathematica function NDSolve. www.math.uiowa.edu /~seaman/DGImage53100.htm   (124 words)

Richard Arkwright article - Richard Arkwright December 23 1732 August 1792 Englishman Water Frame Spinning - What-Means.com The spinning frame – loosely based on the Spinning Jenny of James Hargreaves – was developed in 1769, and the world's first water-powered cotton mill was built in 1771 at Cromford, Derbyshire, creating one of the catalysts for the industrial revolution. In 1768, he worked together with a clockmaker called John Kay (who was not the John Kay who invented the Flying Shuttle) to make a cotton spinning frame, by which, for the first time, cotton thread could be made by machinery fine and strong enough for the warp, or long threads of cloth.

Distribution frame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In broadcast engineering, a distribution frame is a location within an apparatus room through which all signals (audio, video, or data) pass, with the ability to arbitrarily route and connect sources and destinations between studios and other internal and external points. Because the frame may carry live broadcast signals, it may be considered part of the airchain. In telephony, a distribution frame is a closet or area set aside which contains equipment which multiplexes users' transmission mediums over a higher-capacity medium. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Distribution_frame   (264 words)
