The smallest unit of price change quoted or, one one-hundredth of a percent.
Scientific & EducationalAn analog device that produces a change in voltage or current when the internal pressure changes state. Normally a fast response device for use in servo control systems.
Scientific & EducationalMany types of loads such as reciprocation compressors have cycling torques where the amount of torque required varies depending on the position of the machine. The actual maximum torque requirement at any point is called the peak torque requirement. Peak torques are involved in things such as punch presses and other types of loads where an oscillation torque requirement occurs.
Scientific & EducationalPerformance testing is the process of determining the speed or effectiveness of a computer, network, software program or device. This process can involve quantitative tests done in a lab, such as measuring the response time or the number of MIPS (millions of instructions per second) at which a system functions. Qualitative attributes such as reliability, scalability and interoperability may also be evaluated. Performance testing is often done in conjunction with stress testing.
