The software release life cycle is the process of developing, testing, and distributing a software product (e.g., an operating system). It typically consists of several stages, such as pre-alpha, alpha, beta, and release candidate, before the final version, or "gold", is released to the public. An example of a basic software release life cycle
Software versioning is the process of assigning either unique version names or unique version numbers to unique states of computer software. Within a given version number category (e.g., major or minor), these numbers are generally assigned in increasing order and correspond to new developments in the software.
The release of β-endorphin has been postulated to contribute to the phenomenon known as "runner's high". [ 40 ] [ 41 ] However, several studies have supported the hypothesis that the runner's high is due to the release of endocannabinoids rather than that of endorphins. [ 42 ]
Digman suggests that Alpha may represent a social desirability factor. An alternative explanation is that Alpha is a socialization factor which is causally related to the positive (or negative) expression of these socially desirable traits. Beta, he says, may be interpreted as personal growth versus restriction.
The Type A and Type B personality concept describes two contrasting personality types.In this hypothesis, personalities that are more competitive, highly organized, ambitious, impatient, highly aware of time management, or aggressive are labeled Type A, while more relaxed, "receptive", less "neurotic" and "frantic" personalities are labeled Type B.
The region-beta paradox: a person prefers to walk (at 3 miles per hour) if distances are less than a mile, and to cycle (15 miles per hour) for longer distances. Despite the remoteness of points in region beta, they will be reached faster than most points in the nearby region alpha.
An atypical example is given by the β-adrenergic autoreceptor in the sympathetic peripheral nervous system, which acts to increase transmitter release. [ 1 ] The D2 autoreceptor has been shown recently to interact with the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1), a G-Coupled Protein Receptor GPCR , to regulate monoaminergic systems in the ...
They inhibit the release of circulating adrenergic neurotransmitters like norepinephrine, which contributes to the contraction of smooth muscles. [2] Examples of alpha 2 blockers include yohimbine and idazoxan. [2] Apart from being used as antidotes to reverse the overdose effects of alpha 2 agonists, they only have a limited number of ...
