If you are working on a journal note, you might send a discrete 10-15 page section, with a synopsis of the balance.
But the fact is that little of what we read on the Web today is formatted in discrete pages, so it seems logical that, as reading online continues to supplant reading in print, hours and minutes will become increasingly useful units for measuring our progress.
We often experience or consume content on the internet in a fragmented, free-associative way — an article here, a video there — and so each essay lives on a discrete sheet, not a page.
It is a discrete layer that sits atop web pages as a way to collect comments.
Myoc-OLF was pre-screened at room temperature against a variety of proteases including trypsin, α-chymotrypsin, pepsin, papain, V8 protease and subtilisin A to identify a protease and concentration capable of producing a discrete smaller construct detectable by SDS-PAGE.
The nodes PFHN and FR had a discrete level of association (Degree), even with high degree nodes (Page rank).
In contrast to the molecular mass heterogeneity displayed by the pistil proteins, the different isoforms found in seedlings, roots, and leaves each has a discrete size (37, 80, 160, and 200 kDa) on SDS-PAGE gels.
The heavy glycosylation status of the ICAM-2 WT protein dictates its migration in SDS-PAGE gels as a diffuse band rather than as a discrete band of specific molecular mass.
We encode each wavelength with a discrete angular spectrum of plane waves, so that the total number of multiplexed holographic pages equals the number of wavelengths multiplied by the number of discrete wave vectors at each wavelength.
Clive Thompson, the author of "Smarter Than You Think: How Technology is Changing Our Minds for the Better," breaks it down this way: Before News Feed, Facebook was a collection of discrete, individual pages, not unlike a yearbook.
Because each is like a discrete galaxy.
