  1. Vertebral column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebral_column

    The vertebral column, also known as the spinal column, spine or backbone, is the core part of the axial skeleton in vertebrate animals.The vertebral column is the defining and eponymous characteristic of the vertebrate endoskeleton, where the notochord (an elastic collagen-wrapped glycoprotein rod) found in all chordates has been replaced by a segmented series of mineralized irregular bones ...

  2. Internet backbone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_backbone

    The Internet backbone is the principal data routes between large, strategically interconnected computer networks and core routers of the Internet. These data routes are hosted by commercial, government, academic and other high-capacity network centers as well as the Internet exchange points and network access points, which exchange Internet ...

  3. Vertebrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebrate

    Ossea Batsch, 1788[2] Vertebrates (/ ˈvɜːrtəbrɪts, - ˌbreɪts /) [3] are deuterostomal animals with bony or cartilaginous axial endoskeleton — known as the vertebral column, spine or backbone — around and along the spinal cord, including all fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.

  4. Backbone network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbone_network

    A collapsed backbone (also known as inverted backbone or backbone-in-a-box) is a type of backbone network architecture. In the case of a collapsed backbone, each location features a link back to a central location to be connected to the collapsed backbone. The collapsed backbone can be a cluster or a single switch or router.

  5. Open Shortest Path First - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Shortest_Path_First

    The backbone area (also known as area 0 or area 0.0.0.0) forms the core of an OSPF network. All other areas are connected to it, either directly or through other routers. OSPF requires this to prevent routing loops. [15] Inter-area routing happens via routers connected to the backbone area and to their own associated areas.

  6. Spinal cord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_cord

    Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular structure made up of nervous tissue that extends from the medulla oblongata in the lower brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column (backbone) of vertebrate animals. The center of the spinal cord is hollow and contains a structure called the central ...

  7. Vertebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebra

    Each vertebra (pl.: vertebrae) is an irregular bone with a complex structure composed of bone and some hyaline cartilage, that make up the vertebral column or spine, of vertebrates. The proportions of the vertebrae differ according to their spinal segment and the particular species. The basic configuration of a vertebra varies; the bone is the ...

  8. Ishikawa diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishikawa_diagram

    Sample Ishikawa diagram shows the causes contributing to problem. The defect, or the problem to be solved, [1] is shown as the fish's head, facing to the right, with the causes extending to the left as fishbones; the ribs branch off the backbone for major causes, with sub-branches for root-causes, to as many levels as required.
