Record 1 2015-11-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Taxation
CONT

… a financial transaction tax could significantly reduce the amount of high-frequency trading. This trading, most of it automated, is used to make windfall profits through arbitrage (taking advantage of small differences in price) in milliseconds. It does nothing to help ordinary investors and can destabilize financial markets.

Record 3 2009-04-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radio Transmission and Reception
  • Remote Sensing
DEF

[A system in which] the communication [is] initialized by a tag upon entering an interrogation field.

CONT

When a tag using a TTF protocol enters the reader's power zone it begins broadcasting a short random number, and continues until it receives acknowledgment from the reader. If several tags broadcast at the same time, each waits a random interval before rebroadcasting. That process enables the reader to identify all the tags in its zone.

OBS

The tag is the master, the interrogator the slave. If a communication is established the interrogator can also operate as the master.

OBS

tag talks first; TTF: term, abbreviation and definition standardized by ISO/IEC [International Electrotechnical Commission].

OBS

L'étiquette est le maître et l'interrogateur est l'esclave. Si une communication est établie, l'interrogateur peut également agir à titre de maître.
