The palaestra at Delphi is part of a gymnasium ancient Greece gymnasium at the Delphi sanctuary .

The Wideband Delphi estimation method is a consensus based technique for estimating effort. It derives from the Delphi method which was developed in the 1950 1960s at the RAND Corporation as a forecasting tool. It has since been adapted across many industries to estimate many kinds of tasks, ranging from statistical data collection results to sales and marketing forecasts. Wideband Delphi Process Barry Boehm and John A. Farquhar originated the Wideband variant of the Delphi method in the 1970s. They called it wideband because, compared to the existing delphi method, the new method involved greater interaction and more communication between those participating. The method was popularized by Boehm s book Software Engineering Economics 1981 . Boehm s original steps from this book were Coordinator presents each expert with a specification and an estimation form. Coordinator calls a group meeting in which the experts discuss estimation issues with the coordinator and each other. Experts fill out forms anonymously. Coordinator prepares and distributes a summary of the estimates Coordinator calls a group meeting, specifically focusing on having the experts discuss points where their estimates vary widely Experts fill out forms, again anonymously, and steps 4 to 6 are iterated for as many rounds as appropriate. A variant of Wideband Delphi was developed by Neil Potter and Mary Sakry of http www.processgroup.com The Process Group .

ISDN In ISDN terminology, a terminal adapter or TA is a device that connects a terminal computer to the ISDN network. The TA therefore fulfills a similar function to the ones a modem has on the Plain old telephone service POTS network, and is therefore sometimes called an ISDN modem . The latter term, however, is partially misleading as there is no modulation or demodulation performed. There are devices on the market that combine the functions of an ISDN TA with those of a classical modem with an ISDN line interface . These combined TA modems permit connections from both ISDN and analog line modem counterparts. In addition, a TA may contain an interface and codec for one or more analog telephone lines aka a b line , allowing an existing POTS installation to be upgraded to ISDN without changing phones. Terminal adapters typically connect to a basic rate interface S interface S0 , sometimes also U interface U0 . On the terminal side, the most popular interfaces are RS 232 serial and USB others like V.35 or RS 449 are only of historical interest. Devices connecting ISDN to a network e.g. Ethernet commonly include router computing routing functionality while they technically include a TA function, they are referred to as ISDN router computing router s. Mobile Networks In Mobile network s, the terminal adapter is used by the Terminal equipment to access the Mobile termination , using AT commands see Hayes command set . In 2G such as GSM or CDMA , the terminal adapter is a theoretically optional while in 3G such as W CDMA , the terminal adapter is mandatory and is part of the Mobile Termination .
