Distributed computing is a field of computer science that studies distributed systems. A distributed system is a software system in which components located on networked computers communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages. The components interact with each other in order to achieve a common goal.
Scientific & EducationalA number that describes the dielectric strength of a material relative to a vacuum, which has a dielectric constant of one. Relative permittivity. It is the ratio of the capacitance of a capacitor with the given material as dielectric, to the capacitance of the same capacitor with vacuum (or air) as the dielectric. That property of a dielectric that determines the electrostatic energy stored per unit volume for a unit potential gradient.
