Acronym for “chemical abstract services.” The CAS number is a means by which chemists categorize chemicals. Each chemical has a unique CAS number by which may be used to look up chemicals and their properties.
See Channel Associated Signalling (CAS).
Channel Associated Signalling. Signalling bits are transmitted in-band, along with the digitized voice itself.
Country Assistance Strategy. The CAS is at the heart of the Bank Group's Board review of their assistance strategy for IDA and IBRD borrowers. The document describes the Bank Group's strategy and indicates the level and composition of assistance to be provided, based on the strategy and the country's portfolio performance.
Channel Assigned Signaling
Certified ARC Specialist. An individual who has achieved a passing score on the CAS Examination, thereby demonstrating competence in ARC-related business functions. See Sections 20 and 21 of the IAH for further details.
Chemical Abstract Service chemistry, institution, systematics & standardization, all
A form of circuit state signaling in which the circuit state is indicated by one or more bits of signaling status sent repetitively and associated with that specific circuit.
Stands for Channel Associated Signalling in which control signals, such as those for synchronizing and bounding frames, are carried in the same channels along with voice and data signals.
Abbreviation for "computer algebra system". Yacas is a CAS.
Chemical Abstracts Series number
Calibrated (computed) Air Speed
CASx implies that 'x' clock cycles are needed to address a column of a memory chip. CAS 2 memory is preferable to CAS 3 memory, and is often more expensive. You can sometimes set the CAS latency of your SDRAM memory in your BIOS.
Central Allocation System, the booking system administered by COREC for applications to be reviewed by recognised RECs. Bookings of applications relating to a CTIMP or a multi-site study in two or more domains must be made through CAS. Multi-site studies in a single domain will normally be submitted direct to local RECs but may be allocated through CAS.
Column Address Strobe. Signal used to latch the column address into a DRAM chip.
Voice signaling based on bits taken from voice timeslots, used by many PBXs.
channel-associated signalling. Call signalling that enables the access server to send or receive analog calls.
calibrated airspeed -- indicated airspeed corrected for air density and compressibility.
Chemical Abstract Service. Compare? Since the 1890s, CAS has been assigning identification numbers to chemicals that companies register with them. Every year, CAS updates and writes new chemical abstracts on well over a million different chemicals, including their composition, structure, characteristics, and all the different names of that chemical. CAS On-Line is a computer network available to individual and business account holders to receive information about specific chemicals of concern. Each abstract is accompanied by the CAS number.
A unique identification number assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) to each distinct chemical substance recorded in the CAS Chemical Registry System. This number may contain up to 9 digits. For example the CAS# for Valium is 439-14-5
Calibrated Airspeed - the indicated airspeed of an aircraft, corrected for position and instrument error. CAS is equal to true airspeed in standard atmosphere at sea level.
channel-associated signalling. In E1 applications, time slot 16 is used to send CAS information. Each frame's time slot 16 carries signalling information (ABCD bits) for two of the B channel time slots.
channel associated signaling. Call signaling that enables the access server to send or receive analog calls.
In computer memory technology, CAS (column address strobe) is a signal sent to a dynamic random access memory (dynamic random access memory) that tells it that an associated address is a column address. A data bit in DRAM is stored in a cell located by the intersection of a column address and a row address. A row address strobe (row address strobe) signal is used to validate the row address.
Acronym for column address strobe.
Abbreviation for column address strobe.
Country Assistance Strategy. Outlines the programme of policy reforms and projects that are financed by World Bank loans. The CAS document, based on the priorities of the country and the country's record, covers the Bank's strategy and the amount and composition of assistance to be provided to the country.
Cost Accounting Standards Financial Management CAS
Cost Accounting Standards. Federally mandated accounting standards intended to ensure uniformity in budgeting, allocating and costing university activities. They apply to grants, contracts and cooperative agreements at the University of Washington full description: CAS 501: Consistency in Estimating, Accumulating and Reporting Costs CAS 502: Consistency in Allocating Costs Incurred for the Same Purpose CAS 505: Accounting for Unallowable Costs CAS 506: Consistency in Using the Same Accounting Period for Purposes of Estimating, Accumulating and Reporting Costs
(Channel Associated Signaling): In-band signaling, when the signaling data is sent on the same channel as the data.
Country Assistance Strategy. The World Bankâ€(tm)s central tool for over-seeing and piloting its country programmes for IDA and IBRD borrowers.
Channel Associated Signaling. The signaling protocol used with the CEPT E-1 telephony standard. In CAS, one of the 32 channels, time slot 16, is dedicated to signaling for all of the 30 voice channels. Unlike T-1 systems, which use robbed-bit signaling, telephony systems using CAS are considered examples of out-of-band signaling. See in-band signaling, robbed-bit signaling.
Country Assistance Strategy - The World Bank's economic development "plan" prepared every 2-3 years for each borrowing country, and identifying specific actions that governments must take in order to qualify for higher lending levels
Chemical Abstract Service number assigned to specific chemicals, for example: 2-butoxyethanol {CAS 111-76-2
CAS numbers represent chemical substances recorded in the CAS Chemical Registry System. This numbering system identifies chemical substances by an unambiguous computer language description of its molecular structure, including all stereo-chemical detail. The CAS number, which has no chemical significance, is simply a number assigned in sequential order to each substance as it enters the registry system. All specific substances reported in the world's scientific and technical literature and indexed in Chemical Abstracts (CA) since 1965 (when the registry system began) are included in the master file.
American Chemical Societies Chemical Abstract service registry number which identifies the product and/or ingredients.
Chemically assisted sedimentation. A wastewater treatment process that involves adding chemicals like ferric chloride to increase the removal of suspended solids and grease.
Chemical Abstracts Service registry number, a unique number for each chemical in the format xxx-xx-x.
An increasing number of industrial and service companies, which offer products and services which must be explained to customers and which are variable, are beginning to equip their external sales forces with multimedia systems for sales support. These systems are being used with increasing success in sales negotiations by the prefabricated housing industry. CAS offers the option of varying the base model into different prefabricated house designs, as well as displaying them graphically and recalculating the costs.
Channel-Associated Signaling. The transmission of signaling information within the voice channel. CAS signaling often is referred to as robbed-bit signaling because user bandwidth is being robbed by the network for other purposes.
Chemical Abstracts Service is an organization under the American Chemical Society. CAS abstracts and indexes chemical literature from all over the world in "Chemical Abstracts." "CAS Numbers" are used to identify specific chemicals or mixtures.
channel-associated signaling. RBS on a T1 interface; R2, SS1, or P7 on an E1 interface.
Channel Associated Signaling. A signaling technique that uses the same facility path for both voice and signaling traffic.
See channel associated signaling.
Channel Associated Signaling is used in T1 circuits. Instead of having a specific timeslot dedicated to provide signal (as is true with ISDN) , signaling bits for on-hook and off-hook are within the sixth, twelfth, eighteenth and twenty-fourth frames of each time slot. CAS is sometimes called RBS (robbed bit signaling) because it takes bits from the bearer channels for signaling.
(Column Address Strobe) - A memory chip signal that latches the column address of a particular location in a row-column matrix.
(Column Address Select/or Strobe)--A control pin on a DRAM used to and activate a column address. The column selected on a DRAM is determined by the data present at the address pins when CAS becomes active
Column Address Strobe - memory controller signal that tells the memory that it can read the column address signal.
hannel ssociated ignaling; a signaling method where signaling information is provided on a line-by-line or channel-by-channel basis. Signaling information is sent for each channel at regular intervals, regardless of state changes. Each transmission channel is associated with one or more transmission paths. In-band signaling is a type of channel associated signaling. See also Common Channel Signaling (CCS).
Column address strobe is the signal which tells the DRAM to accept the given address as a column address. It is used with RAS and a row address to select a bit within the DRAM.
Channel Associated Signaling. In E1 applications, timeslot 16 is used to transmit CAS information.
