  2. Granularity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granularity

    Granularity (also called graininess) is the degree to which a material or system is composed of distinguishable pieces, "granules" or "grains" (metaphorically). It can either refer to the extent to which a larger entity is subdivided, or the extent to which groups of smaller indistinguishable entities have joined together to become larger ...

  3. Granularity (parallel computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granularity_(parallel...

    In parallel computing, granularity (or grain size) of a task is a measure of the amount of work (or computation) which is performed by that task. [1] Another definition of granularity takes into account the communication overhead between multiple processors or processing elements. It defines granularity as the ratio of computation time to ...

  4. Film grain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_grain

    Film grain or film granularity is the random optical texture of processed photographic film due to the presence of small particles of a metallic silver, or dye clouds, developed from silver halide that have received enough photons. While film grain is a function of such particles (or dye clouds) it is not the same thing as such.

  6. Granular material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granular_material

    Chain of transmission of stress forces in a granular medium. Coulomb regarded internal forces between granular particles as a friction process, and proposed the friction law, that the force of friction of solid particles is proportional to the normal pressure between them and the static friction coefficient is greater than the kinetic friction coefficient.

  7. Emotional granularity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_granularity

    Emotional granularity is a very specific and complex concept, but can be seen in similar concepts such as emotional differentiation and emotional intelligence. Emotional granularity itself is a fairly new term, developed by Lisa Feldman Barrett. By using the valence/arousal circumplex as a guide, Barrett conducts studies showing that ...

  8. Service granularity principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_Granularity_Principle

    Due to the fallacies of distributed computing, finding an adequate granularity is hard. [2] There is no single simple answer but a number of criteria exist (see below). A primary goal of service modeling and granularity design is to achieve loose coupling and modularity, which are two of the essential SOA principles, [3] and to address other architecturally significant requirements.

  9. Optical granulometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_Granulometry

    Optical granulometry is the process of measuring the different grain sizes in a granular material, [1] based on a photograph.Technology has been created to analyze a photograph and create statistics based on what the picture portrays.
