  2. Spring Back Compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_Back_Compensation

    Spring back compensation is used in metal forming to ensure that the final shape assumed by a piece of metal after being removed from a forming tool is the shape desired. Typically, when metal is being formed at room temperature, it will undergo both plastic and elastic deformation .

  3. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision avoidance

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

    By default they use a Carrier sensing mechanism called exponential backoff (or Distributed coordination function), that relies upon a station attempting to 'listen' for another station's broadcast before sending. CA, or PCF relies upon the AP (or the 'receiver' for Ad hoc networks) granting a station the exclusive right to transmit for a given ...

  4. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff

    Exponential backoff is an algorithm that uses feedback to multiplicatively decrease the rate of some process, in order to gradually find an acceptable rate.

  5. Pullback (differential geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback_(differential...

    (In the language of sheaves, pullback defines a morphism from the sheaf of smooth functions on to the direct image by of the sheaf of smooth functions on .) More generally, if f : N → A {\displaystyle f:N\to A} is a smooth map from N {\displaystyle N} to any other manifold A {\displaystyle A} , then ( ϕ ∗ f ) ( x ) = f ( ϕ ( x ...

  6. Distributed coordination function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_Coordination...

    Distributed coordination function (DCF) is the fundamental medium access control (MAC) technique of the IEEE 802.11-based WLAN standard (including Wi-Fi).DCF employs a carrier-sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) with the binary exponential backoff algorithm.

  7. Pullback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback

    The pullback bundle is an example that bridges the notion of a pullback as precomposition, and the notion of a pullback as a Cartesian square.In that example, the base space of a fiber bundle is pulled back, in the sense of precomposition, above.

  8. Pullback bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pullback_bundle

    The pullback of bundles then corresponds to the inverse image of sheaves, which is a contravariant functor. A sheaf, however, is more naturally a covariant object, since it has a pushforward, called the direct image of a sheaf. The tension and interplay between bundles and sheaves, or inverse and direct image, can be advantageous in many areas ...

  9. Pushforward - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pushforward

    Direct image sheaf, the pushforward of a sheaf by a map; Fiberwise integral, the direct image of a differential form or cohomology by a smooth map, defined by "integration on the fibres" Transfer operator, the pushforward on the space of measurable functions; its adjoint, the pull-back, is the composition or Koopman operator
