Variable universal life insurance — (often shortened to VUL) is a type of life insurance that builds a cash value. In a VUL, the cash value can be invested in a wide variety of separate accounts, similar to mutual funds, and the choice of which of the available separate accounts to … Wikipedia
Variable bitrate — (VBR) is a term used in telecommunications and computing that relates to the bitrate used in sound or video encoding. As opposed to constant bitrate (CBR), VBR files vary the amount of output data per time segment. VBR allows a higher bitrate… … Wikipedia
Fixed income attribution — refers to the process of measuring returns generated by various sources of risk in a fixed income portfolio, particularly when multiple sources of return are active at the same time. For example, the risks affecting the return of a bond portfolio … Wikipedia
Fixed-income attribution — refers to the process of measuring returns generated by various sources of risk in a fixed income portfolio, particularly when multiple sources of return are active at the same time. For example, the risks affecting the return of a bond portfolio … Wikipedia
Fixed-point combinator — Y combinator redirects here. For the technology venture capital firm, see Y Combinator (company). In computer science, a fixed point combinator (or fixpoint combinator[1] ) is a higher order function that computes a fixed point of other functions … Wikipedia
Variable-width encoding — This article is about the storage of text in computers. For the transmission of data across noisy channels, see variable length code. A variable width encoding is a type of character encoding scheme in which codes of differing lengths are used to … Wikipedia
Code division multiple access — This article is about a channel access method. For the mobile phone technology referred to as CDMA, see IS 95 and CDMA2000. Multiplex techniques Circuit mode (constant bandwidth) TDM · FDM … Wikipedia
Variable — A variable (pronEng|ˈvɛərɪəbl) is an attribute of a physical or an abstract system which may change its value while it is under observation. Examples include the height of a child, the temperature across a state, or the input to a function. This… … Wikipedia
Variable-length code — In coding theory a variable length code is a code which maps source symbols to a variable number of bits. Variable length codes can allow sources to be compressed and decompressed with zero error (lossless data compression) and still be read back … Wikipedia
Fixed point combinator — A fixed point combinator (or fixed point operator) is a higher order function that computes a fixed point of other functions. This operation is relevant in programming language theory because it allows the implementation of recursion in the form… … Wikipedia
Code point — Not to be confused with Point code. In character encoding terminology, a code point or code position is any of the numerical values that make up the code space (or code page).[1] For example, ASCII comprises 128 code points in the range 0hex to… … Wikipedia
