VDM-1
The Processor Technology VDM-1, for Video Display Module, was the first video card for S-100 bus computers. Created in 1975, it allows an S-100 machine to produce its own display, and when paired with a keyboard and their 3P+S card, it eliminates the need for a separate video terminal. Using a 7 x 9 dot matrix and ASCII characters, it produces a 64-column by 16-row text display. The VDM-1 is a complex card and was soon replaced by an increasing number of similar products from other companies. An early competitor was the Solid State Music VB-1, which offers an identical display from a much simpler card. Later cards using LSI chips have enough room to include the keyboard controller as well.

User Association Performance Trade-Offs in Integrated RF/mmWave/THz Communications
6G and beyond wireless networks will be utilizing RF (below 6 GHz) mm-Wave, and sub THz frequency bands for user access. These three bands, however, have distinct propagation characteristics and bandwidths. Associating users across these bands using available radio resources while meeting different Quality of Services across slices is a difficult optimization problem.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Enabled Secure Wireless Sensor Networks
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are considered an effective data collection tool. The UAV collected the information from all the wireless sensors at the scheduled time and forward it to the fusion center while Eve tries to eavesdrop on this confidential information from the UAV.

Ultra-Dense Networks Taxonomy
Ultra-Dense Network (UDN) is a network with a spatial density of access points (APs) (or base stations) identical to or larger than the number of active end devices—EDs (user equipments (UEs) or physical devices (PDs)). UDNs can be seen as a network paradigm which can be implemented in the context of various kinds of wireless networks, such as sensor/IoT (Internet of Things) networks, mobile networks, aerial networks, and even satellite networks.

Trusted Access Authentication Technology for Large-Scale Heterogeneous Terminals
A reliable and lightweight trusted access authentication solution for systems with large-scale heterogeneous terminals was introduced. By cloud, edge, and local servers cooperating to execute authentication tasks, the cloud-edge-end collaborative architecture effectively alleviates the authentication delay caused by high concurrent requests. Each server in the architecture deploys a well-designed unified trusted access authentication (UATT) model based on device fingerprints. With ingenious data construction and powerful swin-transformer network, UATT model can provide robust and low-overhead authentication services for heterogeneous terminals. To minimize authentication latency, an A2C-based authentication task scheduling scheme is used to decide which server executes the current task.

Toothing
Toothing was originally a hoax claim that Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones or PDAs were being used to arrange random sexual encounters, perpetrated as a prank on the media who reported it. The hoax was created by Ste Curran, then Editor at Large at the gaming magazine Edge, and ex-journalist Simon Byron. They based it on the two concepts dogging and bluejacking that were popular at the time. The creators started a forum in March 2004 where they wrote fake news articles about toothing with other members and then sent them off to well-known Internet-based news services. The point of the hoax was to "highlight how journalists are happy to believe something is true without necessarily checking the facts". Dozens of news organizations, including BBC News, Wired News, and The Independent thought the toothing story was real and printed it. On April 4, 2005, Curran and Byron admitted that the whole thing was a hoax. There have, however, been real Bluetooth dating devices since.
