(STDM, StatMUX) A system developed toovercome some inefficiencies of standard time divisionmultiplexing, where time slices are still allocated tochannels, even if they have no information to transmit.STDM uses a variable time slot length and by allowing channelsto vie for any free slot space. It employs a buffer memorywhich temporarily stores the data during periods of peaktraffic. This scheme allows STDM to waste no high-speed linetime with inactive channels. STDM requires each transmissionto carry identification information (i.e. a channelidentifier). To reduce the cost of this overhead, a number ofcharacters for each channel are grouped together fortransmission.["Data Communications, Computer Networks and Open Systems",Halsall & Fred, Addison Wesley, p160-161, 1995].["Digital, Analog, and Data Communication", Sinnema &McGovern, Prentice Hall, p245, 1986].

Platidiam
- An inorganic water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts DNA produce both intra interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in G2 phase cell cycle.
