Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) is a joint venture between the major Hollywood studios to establish an open specification for digital cinema that ensures a uniform and high level of technical performance, reliability and quality control.

Digital Cinema Initiatives, LLC (DCI) was created in March, 2002, and is a joint venture of Disney, Paramount, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Universal and Warner Bros. Studios. DCI’s primary purpose is to establish and document voluntary specifications for an open architecture for digital cinema that ensures a uniform and high level of technical performance, reliability and quality control.

Digital Cinema Initiatives, LLC (DCI) announced today a major step forward in the planning efforts toward the launch of digital cinema with the release of DCI Technical Specifications Version 3.0. At the same time DCI also announced the commencement of the next vital testing phase of the digital cinema work incorporating the revisions contained in Version 3.0.

By a unanimous vote, all seven DCI Member Studios approved pursuit of a hierarchical architecture approach for digital cinema, which defines a 4K (4096 by 2160) delivery system that will be compatible with both 4K projectors expected to be available in the near future and with 2K projectors available today. DCI is continuing to encourage manufacturers to develop 4K projectors and related technology for DCI testing and evaluation.

This next phase of DCI’s testing program will undertake review of a variety of hierarchical compression techniques and systems capable of both 4K- and 2K-image delivery.

“This new direction for DCI’s testing program is an important step toward providing a common specification that can be embraced by all the studios,” said Chuck Goldwater, CEO of DCI. “With this step forward we are still on track to deliver a final draft version of the DCI Technical Specifications in the spring of 2004.”

John Fithian, President of the National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO), added his organization’s support for this development. “NATO and its members are pleased that DCI’s Version 3.0 provides for backwards compatibility while accommodating both 2K and 4K capabilities,” said Fithian. “NATO continues to support the development of technical specifications and standards that enable digital cinema systems to operate in a compatible and interoperable environment.”

Last year, DCI engaged the Digital Cinema Laboratory, a project of the Entertainment Technology Center at USC (ETC), to be the facility and test bed where DCI evaluates the prescribed specification. The ETC is part of USC’s renowned School of Cinema-Television. DCI will finish installing in the Lab projectors and servers for testing by the end of November.

“With this announcement, today, DCI has taken a significant step forward in the development of digital cinema,” said Charles S. Swartz, executive director/CEO of the ETC. “The Lab was created specially for high-level testing and evaluation of digital cinema systems and it will play a critical role in the coming months.”

The American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) through its Technology Committee and its chairman, Curtis Clarke, cooperated and co-produced a short film project with DCI over the summer to create a suite of test material for use by DCI and for evaluating digital cinema systems as well as other new distribution systems. DCI will make this standardized test material available to organizations and companies for use in their various testing programs, which they can do by contacting DCI to obtain a copy.

“We applaud DCI’s commitment to setting the highest possible standards for the future of the cinema,” says ASC President Richard Crudo. “Some of our most illustrious members contributed to designing and producing a mini-movie that will enable the industry to better evaluate the technical performance of digital cinema systems, and also judge their capacity for retaining nuances in the original images which are designed to evoke emotional responses. This type of material for standardized evaluations has been needed by the industry for many years. We believe the DCI Digital Cinema effort is a forward-looking venture, which is headed down the right path to meeting the needs of the worldwide creative community.”

Details of DCI’s hierarchical architecture approach to digital cinema can be obtained in the DCI Technical Specifications by contacting Walt Ordway, DCI’s Chief Technology Officer.

2, The full form of DCI is Dental Council of India. It’s used on Governmental ,Departments & Agencies in India

The Dental Council of India – a Statutory Body – was constituted on 12th April 1949 under an Act of Parliament – The Dentists Act, 1948 (XVI of 1948). The amendments were made through an ordinance promulgated by the President of India on 27th August 1992. Through this ordinance, new sections i.e. Section 10A, 10B, 10C were introduced in the Dentists Act, 1948 primarily to restrict mushroom growth of dental colleges, increase of the seats in any of the courses and starting of new higher courses without the prior permission of the Central Government, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare. The amendment was duly notified by the Government of India in Extraordinary Gazette of India, Part-II, Section-I on 3rd April 1993 with effective from 1st June 1992.

The Council is financed mainly by grants from the Government of India, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare (Department of Health & Family Welfare) though the other source of income of the Council is the 1/4th share of fees realized every year by various State Dental Councils under Section 53 of the Dentists Act, 1948, Inspection fee from the Dental Institutions under Section 15 of the Dentists Act, 1948 and application fee from the organization to apply for permission to Set up New Dental College, Opening of Higher Courses of Study and Increase of Admission Capacity in Dental Colleges under section 10A of the Dentists (Amendment) Act, 1993.

3, The full form of DCI is Data, Context, and Interaction. It’s used on Computing ,Programming & Development in Worldwide

Data, Context, and Interaction (DCI) is a paradigm used in computer programming.

The essence of object orientation is that networks of collaborating objects work together to achieve a common goal. The common sense of object oriented programming should reflect this essence with code that specifies how the objects collaborate. Our industry has, unfortunately, chosen differently and code is commonly written in terms of classes. A class tells us everything about the properties of the individual objects that are its instances. It does not tell us anything about how these instances work together to achieve the system behavior.

The result is that our code does not reveal everything about how a system will work. This is clearly not satisfactory, and we need a new paradigm as the foundation for more expressive code. The DCI (Data-Context-Interaction) is such a paradigm. DCI separates a program into different perspectives where each perspective focuses on certain system properties. Code in the Data perspective specifies how information is represented by stand-alone objects. Code in the Context perspective specifies runtime networks of interconnected objects as similar structures of interconnected roles. Code in the Interaction perspective specifies how the networked objects collaborate to achieve the system behavior.

Trygve Reenskaug is the originator of DCI. Jim Coplien is its leading contributor and prime mover in the advancing DCI from early theory to accepted practice.

4, The full form of DCI is Data Center Interconnect. It’s used on Computing ,Networking in Worldwide

Data Center Interconnect (DCI) technology connects two or more data centers together over short, medium or long distances using high-speed packet-optical connectivity.

Data centers have proliferated in recent years—there are now more than 7,500 around the globe, with 2,600 packed into the top 20 global cities alone. And in this cloud-based, web-scale world, access to that data is a critical challenge.

These data centers don’t exist in isolation. They need to talk to each other—share data and content, and provide back-ups and redundancy. Fortunately, DCI technology enables the smooth transit of critical assets over short, medium and long distances between data centers. The most effective transport for DCI is high-speed packet-optical connectivity built on technological innovations such as coherent optics.

With a speedy, reliable connection in place, physically separate data centers can more easily share resources and balance workloads.

Some large operations use DCI to connect their own data centers within their extended enterprise infrastructures, while others connect to partners, cloud providers or data center operators to enable simpler data and resource sharing or handle disaster recovery needs.

The team strives to provide the highest quality of patient care possible through the utilization of available human and material resources.

6, The full form of DCI is Detective Chief Inspector. It’s used on Governmental ,Police in United Kingdom

Detective Chief Inspector (DCI) is a police rank in the United Kingdom.

Detective chief inspector (DCI) is usually the minimum rank held by a senior investigating officer (SIO), who heads major investigations (e.g. murder), and a pool of these officers usually works out of force headquarters or major police stations. The senior Criminal Investigation Department (CID) officer in each BCU usually also holds this rank.

The rank badge of a chief inspector is three Bath stars (“pips”) worn on the epaulettes. This is the same badge as a captain in the British Army. Until 1953, chief inspectors in the Metropolitan Police wore a crown on their epaulettes instead.

Chief inspector was one of the ranks proposed for abolition in the 1994 Sheehy Report, but in the end it was retained.

A number of city and burgh police forces in Scotland used the rank of lieutenant until 1948, when it was replaced by chief inspector.^[1]

8, The full form of DCI is Digitally Controlled Impedance. It’s used on Academic & Science ,Electronics in Worldwide

Digitally Controlled Impedance (DCI) is a function for controlling impedance in Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).  A digitally controlled impedance (DCI) circuit controls the p-channel reference circuit to determine a desired configuration of p-channel transistors for use in the circuits. The DCI circuit further controls the n-channel reference circuit to determine a desired configuration of n-channel transistors for use in the circuits. The DCI circuit takes into account such factors as resistances of p-channel transistors in the p-channel reference circuit, resistances of n-channel transistors in the n-channel reference circuit, as well as temperature, voltage and process variations. The DCI circuit relays information identifying the desired configurations of the n-channel and p-channel transistors to the circuits. The circuits are then configured in response to this information.

9, The full form of DCI is Ductile Cast Iron. It’s used on Academic & Science ,Architecture & Constructions in Worldwide

Ductile Cast Iron (DCI) is a type of cast iron known for its impact and fatigue resistance, elongation, and wear resistance due to the spherical (round) graphite structures in the metal. Ductile Iron is also called ductile cast iron, spheroidal graphite cast iron, or nodular cast iron. Both ductile iron and cast iron have graphite within. If you look closely (with a high-power microscope with 100x magnification or more) at regular cast iron (gray iron), you will see the graphite bits look like squiggly lines called “flakes.”  When you look at the graphite in ductile cast iron, however, they look like little spheres or nodules (thus the spheroidal graphite iron and nodular iron names).

About Roman Numerals

Roman numerals originate, as the name suggests, from the Ancient Roman empire. Unlike our position based system with base 10, the roman system is based on addition (and sometimes subtraction) of seven different values. These are symbols used to represent these values:

For example, to express the number 737 in roman numerals you write DCCXXXVII, that is 500 + 100 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1. However, for the numbers 4 and 9, subtraction is used instead of addition, and the smaller number is written in front of the greater number: e.g. 14 is written as XIV, i.e. 10 + 5 − 1, and 199 is expressed as CXCIX i.e. 100 + 100 − 10 + 10 − 1. It could be argued that 199 would be more easily written as CIC, but according to the most common definition you can only subtract a number that is one order of magnitude smaller than the numbers you’re subtracting from, meaning that IC for 99 is incorrect.

Roman numerals are often used in numbered lists, on buildings to state the year they were built, and in names of regents, such as Louis XVI of France.
