Thromboplastin
Thromboplastin (TPL) is derived from cell membranes and is a mixture of both phospholipids and tissue factor, neither of which are enzymes. Thromboplastin acts on and accelerates the activity of Factor Xa, also known as thrombokinase, aiding blood coagulation through catalyzing the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. Thromboplastin is found in brain, lung, and other tissues and especially in blood platelets. Although sometimes used as a synonym for the protein tissue factor (with its official name "Coagulation factor III hromboplastin, tissue factor), this is a misconception. Historically, thromboplastin was a lab reagent, usually derived from placental sources, used to assay prothrombin times (PT). When manipulated in the laboratory, a derivative could be created called partial thromboplastin. Partial thromboplastin was used to measure the intrinsic pathway. This test is called the aPTT, or activated partial thromboplastin time. It was not until much later that the subcompo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
TPL Tables
TPL Tables is a cross tabulation system used to generate statistical tables for analysis or publication. {{Infobox software , name = TPL Tables , developer = QQQ Software, Inc. , latest_release_version = 8.0 , latest_release_date = {{Start date and age, 2014, 07, 23 , operating_system = Microsoft Windows, Unix, Linux , genre = Data analysis, Data Publishing , license = Proprietary , websitwww.qqqsoftware.com Background / history TPL Tables has its roots in the Table Producing Language (TPL) system, developed at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) in the 1970s and early 1980s to run on IBM mainframes. It was one of the first software languages that was task oriented rather than procedure oriented. To create a table in TPL, the user needed to specify his data and describe what his table should look like. He did not need to write procedures to create the table. This was in sharp contrast to the Cobol and PL/1 programs people were using at BLS to create tables befor ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Towed Pinger Locator
A towed pinger locator is a water-borne device used to locate the sonar "ping" from the underwater locator beacon which is fitted to the Cockpit Voice Recorders and Flight Data Recorders installed in commercial airliners. They can locate pingers at depths of up to underwater. The locator is mounted in a hydrodynamic shell, or "tow fish", connected by winch behind a surface vessel across the search area. The locator listens for the sound emanating from the beacon or "pinger". Once located, the beacon and its attached recorders can be retrieved by divers, submersibles or remotely operated vehicle (ROV), depending on depth. A model currently used by the United States Navy is the TPL-25, which has a weight of and a length of ; it is generally towed at . Most beacons transmit a pulse once a second at 37.5 kHz. The hydrophone must be positioned below the thermocline layer which reflects sounds, either back to the surface or back to the ocean floor. Since the pinger signal is r ...

Third-party Logistics
Third-party logistics (abbreviated as 3PL, or TPL) in logistics and supply chain management is an organization's use of third-party businesses to outsource elements of its distribution, warehousing, and fulfillment services. Third-party logistics providers typically specialize in integrated operations of warehousing and transportation services that can be scaled and customized to customers' needs, based on market conditions, to meet the demands and delivery service requirements for their products. Services often extend beyond logistics to include value-added services related to the production or procurement of goods, such as services that integrate parts of the supply chain. A provider of such integrated services is referenced as a third-party supply chain management provider (3PSCM), or as a supply chain management service provider (SCMSP). 3PL targets particular functions within supply management, such as warehousing, transportation, or raw material provision. The global 3PL m ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Trasporti Pubblici Luganesi
Trasporti Pubblici Luganesi (TPL) is a public transport operator in and around the Swiss city of Lugano. Previously known as the Società luganese dei tramway elettrici, Tranvie elettriche comunali, Azienda comunale del traffico (ACT) and Azienda comunale dei trasporti della Città di Lugano (ACTL), the organisation was founded in 1884 and adopted its current name in 2000. TPL operates the city's urban bus network, along with a funicular that links the city's railway station with the city centre. It is a private limited company whose shares are mostly owned by the city of Lugano (58.56%) and the canton of Ticino (30.44%), with the remaining shares are owned by neighbouring municipalities. It is a member of the arcobaleno tariff network. History Beginnings Lugano station was opened in 1874, as part of the Gotthard railway's Lugano to Chiasso line. By 1882, with the opening of the line across the Monte Ceneri Pass to Bellinzona, and the Gotthard Rail Tunnel beyond that ...

Temporal Process Language In theoretical computer science, Temporal Process Language (TPL) is a process calculus which extends Robin Milner's CCS with the notion of ''multi-party synchronization'', which allows multiple process to synchronize on a global 'clock'. This clock measures time, though not concretely, but rather as an abstract signal which defines when the entire process can step onward. Informal definition TPL is a conservative extension of CCS, with the addition of a special action called σ representing the passage of time by a process - the ticking of an abstract clock. As in CCS, TPL features action prefix and it can be described as being ''patient'', that is to say a process a.P will idly accept the ticking of the clock, written as a.P \rightarrow^a a.P Key to the use of abstract time is the ''timeout'' operator, which presents |
