  Ping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ping provides estimates of the round-trip time and packet loss rate between hosts.
The usefulness of ping in assisting the "diagnosis" of Internet connectivity issues was impaired from late in 2003, when a number of Internet Service Providers filtered out ICMP Type 8 (echo request) messages at their network boundaries.
The output of ping, and its cousins, generally consists of the packet size used, the host queried, the ICMP sequence number, the time to live, and the round-trip delay time, with all times given in milliseconds, and times below 10 milliseconds often having low accuracy.

 Ping (disambiguation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ping is a term players of multiplayer online video games often use to refer to the network latency seen between their computer and the game server (or another player).
Ping is used in business referring to the practice of (usually) informally contacting multiple people in an organization to ferret differences in opinion with the intent to locate an attractive opinion (to the seeker) which may be misrepresented as fact.

The usefulness of ping in assisting the diagnosis of Internetconnectivity issues was impaired from late in 2003, when a numberof Internet Service Providers filteredout ICMP Type 8 (echo request) messages at their networkboundaries.
In this sense, ping is conflated with lag – one may "lag out" due to high ping.

The output of ping, and its cousins, generally consists of the packet size used, the host queried, the ICMP sequence number, the time to live, and the latency, with all times given in milliseconds, and times below 10 milliseconds often having low accuracy.
To have some comparison for internet ping times, consider that the shortest possible ping to the other side of our planet is 95 ms.
In practice, the actual ping is always higher, 333 ms not being unusual.

 some broad statements
It is apparent that, although visually-oriented notational systems (such as printed form, or code, such as TeX, to produce print form) are efficient carriers of information, their effectivity is highly dependent upon human facility at interpretation, and such notational systems are quite ambiguous to software written now (and probably within the next many years).
Thus, printed mathematical notation must be disambiguated and regularized to some degree in order to serve the purpose of machine readability and interchange.
Ping has expressed doubts (I believe based on the fact that ambiguities in expressions will get out of control as the range over which templates are matched grows, and that template-matching will become unreliable).

It works by sending ICMP packets to thetarget host and listening for replies; its operation is analogous to active sonar in submarines, in which an operator issues a pulse of energy (a network packet) atthe target, which then bounces from the target and is then received by the operator, hence the name.

To have some comparison for internet ping times, consider that the shortest possible ping to the other side of our planet is 85 ms.
The method used by the game programmers to determine ping times will often not use the traditional ICMP echo request and reply packets, but instead piggyback the functionality onto existing game data packets (often using UDP).

The phrase "high ping" is now considered an insult among gamers, with usage such as, "Your ping is high", or "Keep it up, maybe your ping will go down".
It is worth noting that as an insult, ping goes hand in hand with lag, which spawns phrases such as "high-ping lagtard".

 Bread - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The first breads produced were cooked versions of a grain-paste, made from ground cereal grains and water, and may have been developed by accidental cooking or deliberate experimentation with water and grain flour.
Descendants of these early breads are still commonly made from various grains worldwide, with the Mexican tortilla, Indian chapati, Chinese poa ping, Scots oatcake, North American johnnycake, and Ethiopian injera all being examples.
The basic flat breads of this type also formed a staple in the diet of many early civilizations with the Sumerians eating a type of barley flat cake, and the 12th century BC Egyptians being able to purchase a flat bread called ta from stalls in the village streets.

They described a neural network model for word sense disambiguation and developed context vector representations (which they termed micro-feature representations).
We use context vector representations for docu- ment retrieval, with most of the representation being learned from an unlabeled corpus.
Note that overlap- ping features provide a distributed representation [3], and therefore help insulate against a small number of questionable entries for context vectors.

 Re: small samples
I was just saying that the undistinguished example s;(i;k) is most like the examples for the other notations you provide, for comparison's sake.
Then the point of providing the second example would be just to show that such disambiguation is possible.
That's all i wanted to clarify -- that the first example would not expand to the same thing as the second.

 Internet control message protocol - Wikipedia
Many commonly used network utilities are based on ICMP messages.
The ping utility (well known on Unix) is implemented using the ICMP "Echo" and "Echo reply" messages.
The related traceroute command is implemented by transmitting UDP datagrams with manipulated IP Time-to-live header fields and looking for ICMP "Time to live exceeded in transit" and "Destination unreachable" messages in response.

I've never heard anyone pronounce it "Ping" and most people would look at you blankly if you said it, which was why I thought writing "the official pronunciation" seemed a bit odd.
I think it means: "It's often pronounced 'P. One reason for so doing is that the word "PNG (pronounced 'ping')" might be mistaken for the word "ping" (which is a UNIX command/program/protocol, among other things)".

But with the addition of OO concepts in various implementations that eventually led to CLOS (the CL Object System), it was realized that this wasn't sufficient.
The term that was eventually adopted was "similar" or "similar as constants" where further disambiguation was needed.
I think that would be a good term for the serialization library to adopt, as it avoids an implications related to operator== and the ambiguity around the word "equivalent".

We don’t need a complete data set, we just need a few agreed reference schemes and some way of assembling those snippets of information that we can assert.
URIs work pretty well as identifiers, though a vocabulary like FOAF (which I like for sharing biographical information and group membership, but which wisely steers clear of trying to define interpersonal relationships) also uses hashed email addresses (considerably more unique than Shirky’s human name example, though also sometimes needing disambiguation).

Quake thus cannot suffer from de-synchronized network games that could occur from different clients disagreeing with each other, since the server is always the final authority.
The lower a player's latency (ping time) is, the smoother his or her in-game motions are, which makes it easier to aim, move, and score.
With the help of client-side prediction, which allowed players to see their own movement immediately without waiting for a response from the server, QuakeWorld's network code allowed players with high-latency connections to control their character's movement almost as precisely as when playing in single-player mode.
