• Bathymetric Mapping

  Bathymetric mapping is the process of measuring and charting underwater topography to produce geospatial depth datasets and maps, which organizations use for navigation safety, marine engineering, environmental assessment, and integrated coastal and offshore planning in enterprise and government contexts.

• Battery Backup

  Battery backup is a system or device that supplies stored electrical energy during interruptions or degradation of primary power, enabling enterprises to maintain operation of critical IT, network, and control systems long enough for orderly failover, shutdown, or generator startup.

• Battery Backup System

  Battery Backup System is an electrical energy storage system that uses rechargeable batteries to supply temporary power when primary electricity service fails or degrades, supporting enterprise continuity objectives for data centers, industrial operations, and other critical infrastructure workloads.

• Battery Energy Storage System

  Battery Energy Storage System is an electrochemical energy storage asset that uses rechargeable batteries, power conversion equipment and control systems to store and release electrical energy on demand for grid, facility and microgrid applications in enterprise and utility contexts.

• Battery Management System

  Battery management system is an electronic control system that monitors and protects rechargeable battery packs, estimating state of charge and health while enforcing safe limits, which supports reliability, safety compliance, and lifecycle planning in vehicles, energy storage, and other enterprise power systems.

• Battlefield Information System

  Battlefield information system is an integrated hardware, software, and network environment that collects, processes, and distributes operational data to support command, control, and decision-making in military operations, with strong requirements for interoperability, resilience, and secure information exchange across defense enterprises.

• Battle Network Integration

  Battle Network Integration is the defense networking practice of connecting sensors, weapons, command-and-control systems, and communications into an interoperable battle management network, enabling joint and coalition forces to share data, maintain common situational awareness, and coordinate operations across domains and organizational echelons.

• Bayesian Inference

  Bayesian inference is a statistical framework that updates probability estimates for hypotheses as new data arrives, combining prior information with observed evidence. It matters in enterprise environments for risk assessment, forecasting, decision support, and uncertainty-aware machine learning and analytics.

• Beamforming

  Beamforming is a signal processing technique that uses multiple antennas or sensors to direct transmission or reception in specific directions, improving link budget, coverage, and interference management in enterprise wireless, radar, and acoustic systems used in networks, campuses, and industrial environments.

• Beamforming Test System

  Beamforming test system is an integrated hardware and software platform used to measure and validate the performance of beamforming antennas and phased-array radios, helping enterprises, network operators, and manufacturers ensure compliant, reliable operation of 5G, Wi-Fi, satellite, and radar systems.

• Beam Handoff

  Beam handoff is a radio resource management procedure in satellite and advanced wireless networks that transfers an active user connection between narrow spot beams, maintaining session continuity and service quality as terminals move across coverage areas in mobility-intensive enterprise and operator environments.

• Behavioral Alignment Model

  Behavioral Alignment Model is a structured framework that links observable behaviors to declared goals, policies, or values, enabling enterprises to measure, monitor, and govern behavioral conformity across security, compliance, risk, and performance contexts using consistent, data-based criteria.

• Behavioral Analysis

  Behavioral analysis is the systematic examination of user, system, or entity actions in digital environments to identify patterns and anomalies, supporting enterprise security operations, fraud detection, risk management, and compliance monitoring across identity, network, endpoint, and application domains.

• Behavioral Analytics

  Behavioral analytics is the structured analysis of user or entity actions over time to model normal behavior, detect anomalies, and derive risk or engagement insights, supporting enterprise security operations, fraud detection, and data-driven decisions across digital products and services.

• Behavioral Data Modeling

  Behavioral data modeling is the structured representation and analysis of event-level actions by users, systems, or entities over time, used in enterprises to support measurement, prediction, monitoring, and control across analytics, cybersecurity, fraud detection, and digital experience workloads.

• Behavioral Simulation Engine

  Behavioral simulation engine is a software component that models and executes the behavior of entities or agents over time under defined rules and interactions, enabling enterprises to study system dynamics, test scenarios, and evaluate strategies without altering production environments.

• Behavior Analytics

  Behavior analytics is the practice of collecting and analyzing patterns of user, device, or entity actions over time to establish baselines, detect anomalies, and support security, risk, and operational decisions in enterprise environments and technical systems.

• Behavior-Based Access Control

  Behavior-based access control is an access control approach that uses observed behavior and contextual activity to adjust permissions and authorization decisions in real time, helping enterprises enforce least privilege, support zero trust architectures, and improve detection of anomalous or high-risk access.

• Behavior Tree Engine

  Behavior Tree Engine is a software runtime component that interprets and executes behavior trees as a formal model for decision-making, enabling structured, observable control logic for autonomous systems, robotics, and interactive agents in enterprise and industrial environments.

• Belief–Desire–Intention Model

  Belief–Desire–Intention Model is a formal agent architecture that represents an agent’s beliefs, desires, and intentions to capture goal-directed, explainable decision behavior, used in enterprise multiagent systems, automation, and decision-support applications to structure goals, assumptions, and commitments in software agents.
