La longitud es un concepto métrico definible para entidades geométricas sobre la que se ha definido una distancia. Más concretamente dado un segmento, curva o línea finita, se puede definir su longitud a partir de la noción de distancia. Sin embargo, no debe confundirse longitud con distancia, ya que para una curva general (no para un segmento recto) la distancia entre dos puntos cualesquiera de la misma es siempre inferior a la longitud de la curva comprendida entre esos dos puntos. Igualmente la noción matemática de longitud se puede identificar con la una magnitud física que determinada por la distancia física.
Snapple began in 1972 when three friends started selling bottles of their homemade tea door-to-door in New York City. Over time, as distribution improved, Snapple gained popularity across America in the 1990s. However, frequent management changes in the 2000s caused Snapple to lose its unique identity. Today, Snapple faces challenges competing against many new ready-to-drink tea brands in the crowded beverage market. Research found that while consumers have a positive perception of Snapple's taste, the brand struggles with staying relevant and increasing purchase frequency against competitors like Arizona and Lipton. The summary identifies Snapple's origins, challenges competing today, and insights from research about consumer perceptions.

How understandings of landscape ecology and process geomorphology can be used to sustain modern agricultural practices in Canada and create alternatives for energy production.
This document discusses fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) technology. FTTH involves running optical fiber directly from a telephone switch into a subscriber's home to provide high-speed internet, phone, and TV services. The advantages of FTTH include a passive network with no active components from the central office to end users, minimizing maintenance costs. FTTH also provides a future-proof network architecture capable of high-speed data and video. Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited, India's state-run telecom company, has plans to install FTTH networks in 98 cities by 2009 and make it available across all Indian states by 2015-2016.
1. The document discusses the relationship between FTTH (fiber to the home) and LTE networks for both fixed and mobile operators. It explores whether LTE can substitute for fixed networks in some cases and the factors that determine this.
2. Key considerations for operators in choosing a network investment strategy include how far to roll out fiber, whether LTE can replace copper networks in rural areas, when to transition from 3G to 4G, and how technologies like WiFi can reduce mobile network costs.
3. The economics of FTTH versus LTE deployment depend on factors like population density, spectrum availability, and the need for usage caps. LTE may be preferable to DSL in low density areas
1) The BDUK programme has expanded superfast broadband coverage to nearly 90% of UK homes and businesses, up from 45% in 2010, and aims to reach 95% by December 2017.
2) To date, BDUK has added over 3.8 million superfast broadband premises and aims to reach 4 million by spring/early summer 2016.
3) Pilot projects testing new broadband delivery models in hard to reach areas found that alternative providers can cost-effectively provide reliable superfast speeds using various technologies, and that communities can support broadband expansion.
The rural areas of Shropshire and Herefordshire have connectivity problems due to their sparse populations and remote locations. Incumbent providers favor more profitable urban areas, leaving many rural communities with poor broadband and mobile coverage. The Herefordshire Community Networks CIC is addressing this issue by building fiber networks in hard to reach rural communities like Dewsall/Callow. Through a combination of community shares and public funding, they are able to install fiber networks at a lower cost than incumbent providers and achieve higher subscriber rates. Their model demonstrates that with local champions and alternative funding approaches, world-class connectivity can be achieved even in remote rural areas.

This paper highlights the WiMAX Regulation in South Korea, as a country that is already more mature and had become the first to implement Wireless Broadband Access (WBA) of its kind (WiBro) in the world, and Indonesia, as a country that is still in the process of formulating the reconcilable regulation. The paper begins with a brief overview of the technologies behind WiMAX and compared the market situation relative to broadband and 3G mobile networks. Next, the paper examines the potentially significant specific policy and regulatory issues for regulator in each country and competition climate between stockholders. Finally, this data was used to obtain recommendations to overcome the said problems. We found out that WiMAX may prove to be a disruptive technology for existing telecommunication and Internet sector, but careful policy effectuation can ensure that the disruption could create the maximum benefit possible in the society and market.
