Dr Verlinde would quantise gravity by making it an emergent property of the entropy of empty space.

Their existence has not been proven, but even so, attempts to quantise them show that they may not be used for faster-than-light communication.

Our HVS model says that we cannot see high frequency detail so in JPEG we can quantise these components without a perceptible loss of quality.

That's because the theory, in its original incarnation in the so-called first superstring revolution, claimed to be not only a way to quantise gravity but a complete Theory of Everything.

We can quantise the energy states of a single mode of a radiation field, just as the energy states of a simple harmonic oscillator are quantised in simple quantum mechanics.

- Quantize: approximate (a signal varying continuously in amplitude) by one whose amplitude is restricted to a prescribed set of discrete values
- Quantize: apply quantum theory to; restrict the number of possible values of (a quantity) or states of (a physical entity or system) so that certain variables can assume only certain discrete magnitudes that are integral multiples of a common factor; "Quantize gravity"
- (quantisation) quantization: the act of dividing into quanta or expressing in terms of quantum theory
- (Quantisation (physics)) In physics, quantization is the process of explaining a classical understanding of physical phenomena in terms of a newer understanding known as "quantum mechanics". It is a procedure for constructing a quantum field theory starting from a classical field theory. ...
- (Quantisation (signal processing)) In digital signal processing, quantization is the process of approximating ("mapping") a continuous range of values (or a very large set of possible discrete values) by a relatively small ("finite") set of ("values which can still take on continuous range") ...
- A function on some sequencers which modifies the information in its memory to improve the rhythmic accuracy and correct playing errors.
- The term used to describe the facility present on sequences that allows notes to be snapped to a user defined subdivision of a bar of music - for example, 8th notes. Quantise is usually used to correct timing errors.
