Operation in which many ends of yarn from a creel are combined on a section beam.

The primary operation of warp-making in which ends withdrawn from a warping creel, evenly spaced in sheet form, are wound on to a beam to substantial length (usually a multiple of the loom warp length). (See also direct warping.) Note 1: Several similar beams (termed a set of back beams) of the same length provide the total number of ends required in the warps to be made. Note 2: The sheets from a set of back beams are usually run together as one sheet on to a succession of weaver's beams as an integral part of the sizing operation. Alternatively, the weaver's beams may be assembled from the back beams by dry taping. Note 3: Beaming is suitable primarily for bulk production of grey warp. Fancy warps may be produced by arranging the colour sequence of the ends evenly throughout the set of back beams.

The operation of winding warp yarns onto a beam usually in preparation for slashing, weaving or warp knitting. This process is also popularly known as warping.

"Term coined by Palm to descibe the way to transmit data from one PDA to another via infrared ports." --About.com

A way to send information between two PDAs via the infrared port. Can also be used to send information to the printer or other devices.

The process of sharing data between wireless infrared-capable hand-held devices within a given distance (for example, within three feet). Information transferred through this method automatically stores in the proper application on the receiver’s hand-held device.

Beaming is a technique of distant healing. It is a line of sight distant Reiki sending to a person. Although a distant healing technique, this is generally done in the presence of another when hands on Reiki touch might be inappropriate (abuse cases, burn victims). Beaming is common to other healing systems such as in the Johrei Fellowship.
