IEEE 802.11w is the Protected Management Frames standard for the IEEE 802.11 family of standards. Task Group 'w' worked on improving the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control layer. [1] Its objective was to increase security by providing data confidentiality of management frames, mechanisms that enable data integrity, data origin authenticity, and ...
Opportunistic Wireless Encryption. Opportunistic Wireless Encryption ( OWE) is a Wi-Fi standard which ensures that the communication between each pair of endpoints is protected from other endpoints. Unlike conventional Wi-Fi, it provides "Individualized Data Protection" such that data traffic between a client and access point is "individualized".
A delivery traffic indication message ( DTIM) is a kind of TIM which informs the clients about the presence of buffered multicast or broadcast data on the access point. It is generated within the periodic beacon at a frequency specified by the DTIM interval. Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network.
A screen hotspot, in computing, provides a special area on the display screen of a computer for hyperlinking or for other GUI -based activity (such as re-direction, pop-up display, macro execution, etc.).

Traffic shaping is a bandwidth management technique used on computer networks which delays some or all datagrams to bring them into compliance with a desired traffic profile. [1] [2] Traffic shaping is used to optimize or guarantee performance, improve latency, or increase usable bandwidth for some kinds of packets by delaying other kinds.

The setting can be referred to as story world [1] or milieu to include a context (especially society) beyond the immediate surroundings of the story.
