Next Generation Networks: A New Digital Divide?
At present there is no one definition of the term ‘International Digital Divide’. It is often defined in different ways, but nevertheless, factors that influence its definition include access to telecommunication lines, the ratio of internet hosts to GDP, and the level of development of the human capital base. The lack of a clear definition will have knock-on effects in the loan documentation o...
متن کاملCrossing the Digital Divide: computer resources to aid minorities
The term “digital divide” has been used frequently over the past five years to express the idea that certain people groups have less access to computing resources than others. Some aspects of the problem have been well explored in many documents. These include the financial problems of computer access, the lack of telecommunications resources in remote areas and a lack of basic literacy which w...
متن کاملCrossing the phantom divide
We consider fluid perturbations close to the ‘‘phantom divide’’ characterized by p and discuss the conditions under which divergencies in the perturbations can be avoided. We find that the behavior of the perturbations depends crucially on the prescription for the pressure perturbation p. The pressure perturbation is usually defined using the dark energy rest-frame, but we show that this frame ...
متن کاملCrossing the eukaryote-prokaryote divide
The resident microbiota of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract is comprised of ~2000 bacterial species, the majority of which are anaerobes. Colonization of the GI tract is important for normal development of the immune system and provides a reservoir of catabolic enzymes that degrade ingested plant polysaccharides. Bacteroides fragilis is an important member of the microbiota because it cont...
متن کاملCrossing the Synchronous-Asynchronous Divide
The increasing complexity of modern VLSI systems has caused designers to reevaluate the ageold decision of using a single, central clock and instead turn to asynchronous or globally asynchronous, locally synchronous (GALS) designs. Communication between synchronous and asynchronous subsystems is difficult to do reliably and efficiently. In this paper, we review the background for the difficulty...
