IPS (in-plane switching) is a screen technology for liquid-crystal displays (LCDs). In IPS, a layer of liquid crystals is sandwiched between two glass surfaces. The liquid crystal molecules are aligned parallel to those surfaces in predetermined directions (in-plane). The molecules are reoriented by an applied electric field, while remaining ...
In contrast, full alphanumeric or variable graphics displays are usually implemented with pixels arranged as a matrix consisting of electrically connected rows on one side of the liquid crystal (LC) layer and columns on the other side, which makes it possible to address each pixel at the intersections. The general method of matrix addressing ...
IPS/UPS is shown in orange. The IPS/UPS is a wide area synchronous transmission grid of some CIS countries , with a common mode of operation and centralized supervisory control. It has an installed generation capacity of 300 gigawatts , and produces 1,200 terawatt -hours (TWh) per year for its 280 million customers.
A subsystem of a computer or other electronic device that turns electric power from a wall plug or batteries into a form suitable for use by the system. power-system automation The implementation of power-operated switching and control that allows automatic operation of power system elements, instead of manual operation.

Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.
