Multi-Threaded-Server. Oracle definition: MTS allows many user processes to share very few server processes. Without MTS, each user process requires its own dedicated server process; a new server process is created for each client requesting a connection. A dedicated server process remains associated to the user process for the remainder of the connection. With MTS many user processes connect to a dispatcher process. The dispatcher routes client requests to the next available shared server process. The advantage of MTS is that system overhead is reduced, so the number of users that can be supported is increased.
Provides stereo broadcast reception for clean, crisp, virtually noise-free audio fidelity. Includes Dbx Noise Reduction system to optimize the soundtrack's full dynamic range. [Go to source
An NT-based transactional-middleware product introduced by Microsoft in 1997.
Microsoft Transaction Server. A part of Windows NT server providing transaction support for COM components over a distributed network.
The method of broadcasting stereo sound over ordinary analog TV channels. MTS reception capability is built into virtually all stereo TVs and HiFi VCRs.
Microsoft Transaction Server. A component of Option Pack 4.0 for Windows NT Server 4.0 and included in the install of Windows 2000 Server and referenced as Component Services, this component combines a transaction processing monitor, object request broker and application development environment. You can choose to run your e.Order application within MTS, creating a "transacted" sales environment to ensure the accuracy of sales transactions over the Internet.
A standard for providing a second audio channel, for such purposes as stereophonic sound or bilingual audio tracks, on a (n analog standard broadcast) TV channel.
Multichannel TV sound; provides additional sound channels along with a single picture on a TV channel. The U.S, transmission system can include stereophonic sound as well as additional sound channels.
An abbreviation that stands for many different things, but the one that concerns us is the newly coined term from Mark of the Unicorn. MTS is their technology known as MIDI Time Stamping, which allows MIDI tracks to be recorded and played back with an extremely high degree of timing accuracy. MIDI Time Stamping has been a part of all MOTU USB MIDI interfaces and is officially being deployed (activated) with the release of Digital Performer version 2.61. It is a method of coding MIDI data that passes through a MOTU MIDI interface with specific timing information. Once each piece of MIDI data is time stamped the software can control it with an extremely high degree of accuracy, and (this is the important part) play it back with that degree of accuracy. The key to MTS is that MIDI playback is no longer computer clock dependent. For playback, the time stamped event is pre-transmitted to the USB interface from DP, and the MOTU USB interface handles the transmission of those events to the playback MIDI modules. MOTU boasts sub-millisecond accuracy with MTS, and has changed the PPQ resolution of DP to accept values up to 10,000! Now that's a lot of pulses per quarter note.
Metropolitan Transportation System - A regional, multi-modal transportation system that was defined as part of the 1991 MTC RTP (see p. 13). The MTS is used for both planning and funding programming purposes.
Microsoft Transaction Server. Formerly code-named "Viper," MTS is a new product that combines the features of a transaction-processing (TP) monitor and an object-request broker (ORB) in an easy-to-use product.
Multi-channel Television Sound, the official name of the standard for stereo analog television broadcasting, invented by Zenith. Usually includes dbx noise reduction and always has SAP.
Multichannel TV Sound. The standard stereophonic audio reception and noise-reduction process used in all true stereo television receivers not using satellite or digital decoders.

Microsoft Transaction Server. A transaction service in the Microsoft Windows NT operating system that simplifies the development and deployment of server-centric applications built using COM. It's essentially a TP monitor and an object request broker (ORB) combined into an easy-to-use package.
Make To Stock - products are made and put into store according to safety stock or re-order point calculations. Usually where the sales order cycle time is faster than the production or assembly lead time. A MTS environment could be simply controlled by reorder points.

Multichannel Television Sound. One of the first stereo sound systems developed for television. MTS consists of two independent singles each carrying a discrete channel. One channel provides stereo sound by providing left/right channel difference signals relative to transmitted mono audio track. The second carrier carries the Secondary Audio Program (SAP) which is used for a second language or for Descriptive Video, a descriptive commentary for the vision impaired.
Multichannel Television Sound, received by TUNER, produces STEREO and SAP sound.
Microsoft Transaction Server. MTS is a program that runs on an Internet or other network server with a Windows NT system and manages application and database transaction requests on behalf of a client computer user. The Transaction Server screens the user and client computer from having to formulate requests for unfamiliar database and, if necessary, forwards the requests to database servers. It also manages security, connection to other servers, and transaction integrity. The Transaction Server is Microsoft's bid to make distributed applications and data in a network relatively easy to create. It's one of a category of programs sometimes known as middleware or multi-tier programming for the enterprise market.
See multi-threaded server (MTS).
MTS (Multithreaded Server) is an Oracle server configuration that uses less memory. With MTS dispatcher process enables many user processes to share a few server processes. While running in MTS mode, a user can still request a dedicated server process. In the Windows world, MTS stands for Microsoft Transaction Server.
