After the avalanche risk was assessed as fair, a team of 30 rescuers were deployed like a trapline at "chokepoints" - classic drainage areas where people often fall - east from Indian Arm and west to Mt. Seymour. ❋ Unknown (2009)
It will also allow for bigger single shards, if server power follows suit, as one of the chokepoints is the need to communicate a lot of dynamic positional and other information to a lot of clients at once. ❋ Unknown (2006)
These routes are known as chokepoints due to their potential for closure. ❋ Unknown (2004)
The biggest downside to this linearity is that after just a few hours I had reached two separate "chokepoints" in the story where I needed a specific clue to progress and had a hell of a time finding it. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Internet render these centralized infrastructures "chokepoints". ❋ Unknown (2010)
Just as the growing numbers of cars on the road cause traffic "chokepoints," more ships traversing northern passageways can choke maritime traffic. ❋ Unknown (2010)
His theoretical framework came from Jomini, with an emphasis on strategic locations (such as chokepoints, canals. and coaling stations), as well as quantifiable levels of fighting power in a fleet. ❋ JClarke (2010)
The project, managed by the IEEE and the EastWest Institute think tank, cites the "cable-dense" Luzon Strait south of Taiwan, the Strait of Malacca and the Red Sea among several "chokepoints" that funnel important cable paths together. ❋ Moneycontrol.com [email protected] (2010)
The centerpiece of this project, the so-called "Great Firewall of China," harnesses the power of "chokepoints," the few major connections through which all Internet activity in the country must pass, to lock out information from the world outside.
Others worry about a day when hackers might deploy readers at "chokepoints," such as checkout lines, skim RFID numbers from people's driver's licenses, then pair those numbers to personal data skimmed from chipped credit cards (though credit cards are harder to skim). ❋ Unknown (2009)
If so, stop reading now, because HybridCars has just published a list of six "chokepoints" for the global oil supply, which, if attacked, could bring the industrialized world screeching to a halt. ❋ Unknown (2009)
