In engineering, compensation is planning for side effects or other unintended issues in a design. The design of an invention can itself also be to compensate for some other existing issue or exception.
One example is in a voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO), which is normally affected not only by voltage, but to a lesser extent by temperature. A temperature-compensated version (a TCVCXO) is designed so that heat buildup within the enclosure of a transmitter or other such device will not alter the piezoelectric effect, thereby causing frequency drift.
Another example is motion compensation on digital cameras and video cameras, which keep a picture steady and not blurry.
An Introduction To Cryptography
Chapter 1, “The Basics of Cryptography,” provides an overview of the
terminology and concepts you will encounter as you use PGP products.
Chapter 2, “Phil Zimmermann on PGP,” written by PGP’s creator, contains
discussions of security, privacy, and the vulnerabilities inherent in any
security system, even PGP.
In the rectangle packing problem, encoding schemes
to represent the placements of rectangles are the key
factors determining the efficiency of algorithms. SEQP
AIR is one of the most sophisticated encoding sheme,
which has been considered to have a small solution

Understanding the Linux Kernel helps readers understand how Linux performs best and how
it meets the challenge of different environments. The authors introduce each topic by
explaining its importance, and show how kernel operations relate to the utilities that are
familiar to Unix programmers and users.
This section describes the development and extension of a basic power flow program in Matlab. To the extent feasible, complex vector operations are used, even for the calculation of the Jacobian matrix .
