List of musicology topicsThis is a list of musicology topics. Musicology is the scholarly study of music. A person who studies music is a musicologist. The word is used in narrow, intermediate and broad senses. In the narrow sense, musicology is confined to the music history of Western culture. In the intermediate sense, it includes all relevant cultures and a range of musical forms, styles, genres and traditions, but tends to be confined to the humanities - a combination of historical musicology, ethnomusicology, and the humanities of systematic musicology (philosophy, theoretical sociology, aesthetics).
Clustered file systemA clustered file system is a which is shared by being simultaneously mounted on multiple servers. There are several approaches to clustering, most of which do not employ a clustered file system (only direct attached storage for each node). Clustered file systems can provide features like location-independent addressing and redundancy which improve reliability or reduce the complexity of the other parts of the cluster. Parallel file systems are a type of clustered file system that spread data across multiple storage nodes, usually for redundancy or performance.
Digital imagingDigital imaging or digital image acquisition is the creation of a digital representation of the visual characteristics of an object, such as a physical scene or the interior structure of an object. The term is often assumed to imply or include the , , , printing and display of such images. A key advantage of a , versus an analog image such as a film photograph, is the ability to digitally propagate copies of the original subject indefinitely without any loss of image quality.
Set theory (music)Musical set theory provides concepts for categorizing musical objects and describing their relationships. Howard Hanson first elaborated many of the concepts for analyzing tonal music. Other theorists, such as Allen Forte, further developed the theory for analyzing atonal music, drawing on the twelve-tone theory of Milton Babbitt. The concepts of musical set theory are very general and can be applied to tonal and atonal styles in any equal temperament tuning system, and to some extent more generally than that.
Intuitionistic type theoryIntuitionistic type theory (also known as constructive type theory, or Martin-Löf type theory) is a type theory and an alternative foundation of mathematics. Intuitionistic type theory was created by Per Martin-Löf, a Swedish mathematician and philosopher, who first published it in 1972. There are multiple versions of the type theory: Martin-Löf proposed both intensional and extensional variants of the theory and early impredicative versions, shown to be inconsistent by Girard's paradox, gave way to predicative versions.
Mesure sigma-finieSoit (X, Σ, μ) un espace mesuré. On dit que la mesure μ est σ-finie lorsqu'il existe un recouvrement dénombrable de X par des sous-ensembles de mesure finie, c'est-à-dire lorsqu'il existe une suite (E) d'éléments de la tribu Σ, tous de mesure finie, avec Mesure finie Mesure de comptage sur un ensemble dénombrable Mesure de Lebesgue. En effet, l'ensemble des intervalles pour tous les nombres entiers est un recouvrement dénombrable de , et chacun des intervalles est de mesure 1.
Transformational theoryTransformational theory is a branch of music theory developed by David Lewin in the 1980s, and formally introduced in his 1987 work, Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations. The theory—which models musical transformations as elements of a mathematical group—can be used to analyze both tonal and atonal music. The goal of transformational theory is to change the focus from musical objects—such as the "C major chord" or "G major chord"—to relations between musical objects (related by transformation).
Mesure extérieureLa notion de mesure extérieure (ou mesure extérieure au sens de Carathéodory) est un concept, dû au mathématicien Constantin Carathéodory, qui généralise dans un cadre axiomatique une construction utilisée par Henri Lebesgue pour définir la mesure de Lebesgue des parties Lebesgue-mesurables de la droite réelle. Soit un ensemble.
Musique assistée par ordinateurthumb|Station MAO avec ordinateur, clavier maître, séquenceur et enceintes La musique assistée par ordinateur (MAO) regroupe l'ensemble des utilisations de l'informatique comme outil associé à la chaîne de création musicale depuis la composition musicale jusqu'à la diffusion des œuvres, en passant par la formation pédagogique au solfège et la pratique d'instruments. La MAO fait son apparition auprès d'un public élargi dans les années 1970, lorsque les premières idées de synthétiseur associées à l'ordinateur, Synclavier et Fairlight, voient le jour.
Python (langage)Python (prononcé ) est un langage de programmation interprété, multiparadigme et multiplateformes. Il favorise la programmation impérative structurée, fonctionnelle et orientée objet. Il est doté d'un typage dynamique fort, d'une gestion automatique de la mémoire par ramasse-miettes et d'un système de gestion d'exceptions ; il est ainsi similaire à Perl, Ruby, Scheme, Smalltalk et Tcl.
Music and mathematicsMusic theory analyzes the pitch, timing, and structure of music. It uses mathematics to study elements of music such as tempo, chord progression, form, and meter. The attempt to structure and communicate new ways of composing and hearing music has led to musical applications of set theory, abstract algebra and number theory. While music theory has no axiomatic foundation in modern mathematics, the basis of musical sound can be described mathematically (using acoustics) and exhibits "a remarkable array of number properties".
Noyau de système d'exploitationUn noyau de système d’exploitation, ou simplement noyau, ou kernel en anglais, est une des parties fondamentales de certains systèmes d’exploitation. Il gère les ressources de l’ordinateur et permet aux différents composants — matériels et logiciels — de communiquer entre eux. En tant que partie du système d’exploitation, le noyau fournit des mécanismes d’abstraction du matériel, notamment de la mémoire, du (ou des) processeur(s), et des échanges d’informations entre logiciels et périphériques matériels.
