  2. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_scanning...

    Differential scanning calorimetry ( DSC) is a thermoanalytical technique in which the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature. [1] Both the sample and reference are maintained at nearly the same temperature throughout the experiment.

  3. Dice-Sørensen coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dice-Sørensen_coefficient

    The Dice-Sørensen coefficient (see below for other names) is a statistic used to gauge the similarity of two samples. It was independently developed by the botanists Lee Raymond Dice [1] and Thorvald Sørensen, [2] who published in 1945 and 1948 respectively.

  4. Digital selective calling - Wikipedia

    It is a set of safety procedures, types of equipment, and communication protocols used for safety and rescue operations of the distressed ships, boats, and aircraft. It is supplemental to the International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue (ICMSaR) adopted in 1979 and provides basis for the communication.

  8. Data Coding Scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Coding_Scheme

    Data Coding Scheme is a one- octet field in Short Messages (SM) and Cell Broadcast Messages (CB) which carries a basic information how the recipient handset should process the received message. The information includes: the character set or message coding, which determines the encoding of the message user data.
