Taint

A Taint is a fundamental Kubernetes object that includes three mandatory properties: key, value, and effect. Its main purpose is to prevent the scheduling of Pods on nodes or node groups that do not meet certain requirements. Taints work in conjunction with tolerations to ensure that Pods are scheduled only on appropriate nodes. Nodes are assigned one or more taints, and a Pod can only be scheduled on a node that has the corresponding toleration for the specified taints.

Telemedicine

Telemedicine encompasses all medical diagnosis and treatment measures carried out using information and communication technologies to bridge spatial or temporal ("asynchronous") distances between doctors (tele-doctors), pharmacists, and patients or between two consulting physicians. The term telemedicine is used as an umbrella term for telehealth, telecare, and tele-disciplines.

Testbed

Testbeds serve as comprehensive representations of systems and are employed to examine system elements and their interactions in order to deepen our understanding of the actual system. These testbeds consist of prototypes and fragments of real system components, enabling us to gain valuable insights into the functioning of specific elements within a system.

The Broadband Office of the Federal Government

The Broadband Office of the Federal Government (BBB) was established in late 2010. Since the parliamentary election in 2013, the responsibility for telecommunications infrastructures lies within the domain of the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI). The main objective of the Broadband Office of the Federal Government is to support the broadband strategy of the federal government.

Toleration

A fundamental item comprising three essential characteristics - key, value, and effect - is used for scheduling pods on nodes or node groups that have corresponding taints. Taints and tolerations collaborate to prevent pods from being scheduled on unsuitable nodes. A pod is assigned one or more tolerations, which signify that it can be scheduled on nodes or node groups with matching taints, although it is not mandatory.

Total Cost of Ownership

The total costs associated with the purchase, use, and disposal (if applicable) of an asset, such as a computer system, are referred to as Total Cost of Ownership. These costs are an important aspect in product design and are intended to help understand and influence customer purchasing decisions.

Traffic Data Marketplace

A digital platform or marketplace for traffic data enables the exchange and use of information in the field of transportation. An example of this is the Mobility Data Marketplace (MDM) of the Federal Highway Research Institute (Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen or BAST in German).

Traffic guidance systems

Information and communication technologies are used to collect, transmit, process and use traffic-related data locally. The main objective of traffic control systems is to organize traffic efficiently, provide information and control the flow of traffic.

Traffic Light Protocol (TLP)

The TLP (Traffic Light Protocol) is an internationally recognized framework for exchanging sensitive information. It was developed by the National Infrastructure Security Coordination Centre in the UK. Data and documents are classified into four categories, which determine the conditions for their disclosure.

Traffic strategic route planning

Traffic-strategic route planning uses data from traffic guidance systems. Depending on the utilization of the traffic infrastructure, different alternatives for route planning are automatically compared. The most favorable option is then selected dynamically to reach the destination.

Transaction data

Transactional data refers to data that is collected from transactions. It encompasses details such as the transaction time, location, item prices, payment methods, applicable discounts, and various other transaction-related quantities and attributes. Typically, transactional data is collected at the point of sale.

Transaction databases

To highlight the distinction from newer types of databases, it should be noted that transactional databases, which belong to the class of relational databases, are only mentioned for completeness. They are specifically optimized for the OLTP27 (Online Transaction Processing) use case and enable the concurrent work of hundreds of thousands of users.

Trust level

The Trust Level of a computer system is determined by assessing the potential risks associated with its intended use. This involves conducting a comprehensive risk analysis that takes into account the probability and potential consequences of a system attack. Based on the results of this analysis, an appropriate level of hardware and software protection mechanisms is established to ensure the system is adequately protected.

Trusted-Execution-Technique

It cooperates with the respective operating system, verifying, for example, the system BIOS and firmware, and starts the operating system. If errors are detected, the operating system receives feedback. It then decides how the computer continues to function. Essentially, it strengthens platforms that are exposed to attacks on hypervisors, the BIOS, or other firmware, such as malicious rootkits or malware. This function can also be seen as an extension of Virtual Machine Extensions (VMX), Intel's technology for virtual environments.
