    The 2008 submarine cable disruption refers to three separate incidents of major damage to submarine optical communication cables around the world. The first incident caused damage involving up to five high-speed Internet submarine communications cables in the Mediterranean Sea and Middle East from 23 January to 4 February 2008, causing internet ...

  3. Half-power point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-power_point

    Half-power point. The half-power point is the point at which the output power has dropped to half of its peak value; that is, at a level of approximately -3 dB. [1] [a] In filters, optical filters, and electronic amplifiers, [2] the half-power point is also known as half-power bandwidth and is a commonly used definition for the cutoff frequency.

    Definition. Youden's J statistic is. with the two right-hand quantities being sensitivity and specificity. Thus the expanded formula is: The index was suggested by W. J. Youden in 1950 [1] as a way of summarising the performance of a diagnostic test; however, the formula was earlier published in Science by C. S. Pierce in 1884. [2] Its value ...

  5. Cutoff frequency - Wikipedia

    Where s is the s-plane variable, ω is angular frequency and j is the imaginary unit.. Chebyshev filters. Sometimes other ratios are more convenient than the 3 dB point. For instance, in the case of the Chebyshev filter it is usual to define the cutoff frequency as the point after the last peak in the frequency response at which the level has fallen to the design value of the passband ripple.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut-off_(electronics)

    In electronics, cut-off is a state of negligible conduction that is a property of several types of electronic components when a control parameter (that usually is a well-defined voltage or electric current, but could also be an incident light intensity or a magnetic field ), is lowered or increased past a value (the conduction threshold).

    Shortcut (computing) In computing, a file shortcut is a handle in a user interface that allows the user to find a file or resource located in a different directory or folder from the place where the shortcut is located. Similarly, an Internet shortcut allows the user to open a page, file or resource located at a remote Internet location or Web ...

  9. Cut point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut_point

    A point which is not a cut-point is called a non-cut point. A non-empty connected topological space X is a cut-point space if every point in X is a cut point of X. Basic examples. A closed interval [a,b] has infinitely many cut-points. All points except for its end points are cut-points and the end-points {a,b} are non-cut points.
