A system that is designed to experience "'graceful degradation "', or to "'fail soft "'( used in computing, similar to " fail safe " ) operates at a reduced level of performance after some component failures.

Another use is for backward compatibility and graceful degradation : in color television, encoding color via a luminance-chrominance transform domain ( such as YUV ) means that black-and-white sets display the luminance, while ignoring the color information.
13.
As a CBTC system is required to have high availability and particularly, allow for a graceful degradation, a secondary method of signaling might be provided to ensure some level of non-degraded service upon partial or complete CBTC unavailability.
14.
With a nod to graceful degradation, in recognition that not everyone had the latest browser, many began to simply adopt design practices and technologies only supported in the most recent and perhaps the single previous major browser releases.
15.
Hierarchical modulation is particularly used to mitigate the cliff effect in digital television broadcast, particularly mobile TV, by providing a ( lower quality ) fallback signal in case of weak signals, allowing graceful degradation instead of complete signal loss.
16.
A modem that can fall back in order to communicate with an older, slower modem is an example of backward compatibility, while one that can fall back in order to communicate when the line becomes noisy is an example of graceful degradation.
17.
More modern designs such as JPEG 2000 and JPEG XR exhibit a more graceful degradation of quality as the bit usage decreases by using transforms with a larger spatial extent for the lower frequency coefficients and by using overlapping transform basis functions.
18.
The DoD NetOps Community strives to obtain common visibility of network resources so that these can be manage, anticipate and mitigate problems, ensuring uninterrupted availability and protection of the GIG and provide for graceful degradation, self-healing, failover, diversity, and elimination of critical failure points.
19.
When a device signals it has some additional capability, such as a larger screen, the design will then automatically adjust to provide a more useful display : a process being described as " graceful enabling " in contrast to the traditional model of " graceful degradation ".
20.
PE is based on a recognition that the core assumption behind " graceful degradation " that browsers always got faster and more powerful was proving itself false with the rise of handheld and CSS to manage all presentation tasks and JavaScript to enhance complex client-side behavior.
