    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_Christmas_Trees

    The Propagation of Christmas trees is the series of procedures carried out to grow new Christmas trees. Many different species of evergreen trees are used for Christmas trees. The most common of these species are classified in the four genera: pines, spruces, firs, and cypress. Christmas trees can be grown from seed or from root cuttings.

  3. Christmas tree cultivation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tree_cultivation

    Christmas tree cultivation is an agricultural, forestry, and horticultural occupation which involves growing pine, spruce, and fir trees specifically for use as Christmas trees. The first Christmas tree farm was established in 1901, but most consumers continued to obtain their trees from forests until the 1930s and 1940s.

  6. Mesh generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_generation

    Mesh generation is deceptively difficult: it is easy for humans to see how to create a mesh of a given object, but difficult to program a computer to make good decisions for arbitrary input a priori. There is an infinite variety of geometry found in nature and man-made objects. Many mesh generation researchers were first users of meshes.

  7. Trinomial tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinomial_Tree

    The trinomial tree is a lattice-based computational model used in financial mathematics to price options. It was developed by Phelim Boyle in 1986. It is an extension of the binomial options pricing model, and is conceptually similar. It can also be shown that the approach is equivalent to the explicit finite difference method for option ...

  8. M-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-tree

    As in any tree-based data structure, the M-tree is composed of nodes and leaves. In each node there is a data object that identifies it uniquely and a pointer to a sub-tree where its children reside. Every leaf has several data objects. For each node there is a radius that defines a Ball in the desired metric space.

  9. R-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-tree

    The key idea is to use the bounding boxes to decide whether or not to search inside a subtree. In this way, most of the nodes in the tree are never read during a search. Like B-trees, R-trees are suitable for large data sets and databases, where nodes can be paged to memory when needed, and the whole tree cannot be kept in main memory. Even if ...
