Storage Service Provider
A Storage service provider (SSP) is any company that provides computer storage space and related management services. SSPs may also offer periodic backup and archiving. Advantages of managed storage are that more space can be ordered as required. Depending upon your SSP, backups may also be managed. Faster data access can be ordered as required. Also, maintenance costs may be reduced, particularly for larger organizations who store a large or increasing volumes of data. Another advantage is that best practices are likely to be followed. Disadvantages are that the cost may be prohibitive, for small organizations or individuals who deal with smaller amounts or static volumes of data and that there's less control of data systems. Types of managed storage Data owners normally access managed storage via a network ( LAN), or through a series of networks (Internet). However, managed storage may be directly attached to a workstation or server, which is not managed by SSP. Managed Storag ...

Service Switching Point
In telephony, a service switching point (SSP) is the telephone exchange that initially responds, when a telephone caller dials a number, by sending a query to a central database called a service control point (SCP) so that the call can be handled. The service switching point uses the Signalling System No. 7 (SS7) protocols which are responsible for the call setup, management, and termination with other service switching points. Relationship between SSP and SCP With the introduction of the Intelligent Network architecture, service functionality (e.g. UK translation of 0800 non-geographic telephone numbers) is being removed from the actual telephone exchange and devolved out into other computer nodes. In this new architecture, the telephone exchange is known as an SSP and the node that contains the services (and hence ''controls'' the progression of a call) is known as service control point (SCP). Example of a 0800 number translation service In the UK 08XXX numbers are non-geogr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Author Domain Signing Practices
In computing, Author Domain Signing Practices (ADSP) is an optional extension to the DKIM E-mail authentication scheme, whereby a domain can publish the signing practices it adopts when relaying mail on behalf of associated authors. ADSP was adopted as a standards track RFC 5617 in August 2009, but declared "Historic" in November 2013 after "...almost no deployment and use in the 4 years since...". Concepts Author address The ''author address'' is the one specified in the header field defined in RFC 5322. In the unusual cases where more than one address is defined in that field, RFC 5322 provides for a field to be used instead. The domains in 5322-''From'' addresses are not necessarily the same as in the more elaborated ''Purported Responsible Address'' covered by Sender ID specified in RFC 4407. The domain in a 5322-''From'' address is also not necessarily the same as in the ''envelope sender'' address defined in RFC 5321, also known as SMTP MAIL FROM, envelope-''From'', ...

Security Support Provider Interface
Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI) is a component of Windows API that performs security-related operations such as authentication. SSPI functions as a common interface to several Security Support Providers (SSPs): A Security Support Provider is a dynamic-link library (DLL) that makes one or more security packages available to apps. Providers The following SSPs are included in Windows: * NTLMSSP (msv1_0.dll) – Introduced in Windows NT 3.51. Provides NTLM challenge/response authentication for Windows domains prior to Windows 2000 and for systems that are not part of a domain. * Kerberos (kerberos.dll) – Introduced in Windows 2000 and updated in Windows Vista to support AES. Performs authentication for Windows domains in Windows 2000 and later. * NegotiateSSP (secur32.dll) – Introduced in Windows 2000. Provides single sign-on capability, sometimes referred to as Integrated Windows Authentication (especially in the context of IIS). Prior to Windows 7, it tries Kerb ...

Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances and building personal area networks (PANs). In the most widely used mode, transmission power is limited to 2.5 milliwatts, giving it a very short range of up to . It employs UHF radio waves in the ISM bands, from 2.402GHz to 2.48GHz. It is mainly used as an alternative to wire connections, to exchange files between nearby portable devices and connect cell phones and music players with wireless headphones. Bluetooth is managed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), which has more than 35,000 member companies in the areas of telecommunication, computing, networking, and consumer electronics. The IEEE standardized Bluetooth as IEEE 802.15.1, but no longer maintains the standard. The Bluetooth SIG oversees development of the specification, manages the qualification program, and protects the trademarks. A manufacturer must meet ...

Ukagaka
Ukagaka (), Nanika (), Sakura (), Nin'i-tan () or Nise-Haruna () is a catch-all term for Japanese software which shares a single format and function: to provide a pair of mascot characters for the user's computer desktop. These mascot characters can perform some useful functions such as checking e-mail or adjusting the clock of the computer, but are most popular as an aesthetic add-on, which "say" weird things. Characters are typically cute anime girls of original design, accompanied by a small monster or pet of some sort. However, a variety of other subjects exist on the sidelines, from video game characters to 2channel memes to humorous depictions of Hitler. Surface, shell, ghost Most importantly, the characters "talk" (typically in Japanese). What they "say" is shown in a speech bubble. Also, they have variable facial expressions (called "surfaces"). For example, they might say "It's 3. Are you still awake?" at 3:00. Or, when the user is rebooting, they might say "Oh, are you ...

Subspecies
In biological classification, subspecies is a rank below species, used for populations that live in different areas and vary in size, shape, or other physical characteristics (morphology), but that can successfully interbreed. Not all species have subspecies, but for those that do there must be at least two. Subspecies is abbreviated subsp. or ssp. and the singular and plural forms are the same ("the subspecies is" or "the subspecies are"). In zoology, under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, the subspecies is the only taxonomic rank below that of species that can receive a name. In botany and mycology, under the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, other infraspecific ranks, such as variety, may be named. In bacteriology and virology, under standard bacterial nomenclature and virus nomenclature, there are recommendations but not strict requirements for recognizing other important infraspecific ranks. A taxonomist decides whether ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Species Survival Plan
The American Species Survival Plan or SSP program was developed in 1981 by the (American) Association of Zoos and Aquariums to help ensure the survival of selected species in zoos and aquariums, most of which are threatened or endangered in the wild. SSP program SSP programs focus on animals that are near threatened, threatened, endangered, or otherwise in danger of extinction in the wild, when zoo and zoology conservationists believe captive breeding programs will aid in their chances of survival."Species Survival Plans help preserve wildlife" on the Central Florida Zoo website. These programs help maintain healthy and genetically diverse animal populations within the Association of Zoos and Aquariums- ...

Shared Socioeconomic Pathways
Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) are scenarios of projected socioeconomic global changes up to 2100. They are used to derive greenhouse gas emissions scenarios with different climate policies.. The scenarios are: *SSP1: Sustainability (Taking the Green Road) *SSP2: Middle of the Road *SSP3: Regional Rivalry (A Rocky Road) *SSP4: Inequality (A Road divided) *SSP5: Fossil-fueled Development (Taking the Highway) They have been used to help produce the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report on climate change, published on 9 August 2021. The SSPs provide narratives describing alternative socio-economic developments. These storylines are a qualitative description of logic relating elements of the narratives to each other. In terms of quantitative elements, they provide data accompanying the scenarios on national population, urbanization and GDP (per capita). The SSPs can be quantified with various Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs), to explore possible future pathways both with regard ...
