Definitions[]
Computing[]
Interference means
“ | (i) hindering, blocking, impeding, interrupting, or impairing the processing of, functioning of, access to, or confidentiality, integrity, or availability of a computer program, computer, computer system, network, computer data, content data, or traffic data by inputting, transmitting, damaging, deleting, destroying, deteriorating, altering, or suppressing computer data, content data, traffic data, a computer program, computer, computer system, or network, and/or (ii) corrupting, damaging, deleting, deteriorating, altering, or suppressing a computer program, computer data, content data, or traffic data.[1] | ” |
General[]
Interference is "any electrical disturbance that causes undesirable responses in electronic equipment.[2]
Telecommunications[]
Interference is
“ | any unwanted radio frequency signal that prevents you from watching television, listening to your radio or stereo or talking on your cordless telephone. Interference may prevent reception altogether, cause only a temporary loss of a signal, or affect the quality of the sound or picture produced by your equipment.[3] | ” |
See also Radio frequency interference.
U.S. patent law[]
An interference was a proceeding, conducted before the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences, to determine which of two or more parties was the first-to-invent commonly claimed subject matter.[4] Derivation proceedings to determine the "first inventor to file" are what will be left of interference proceedings when traditional interferences are gone under the America Invents Act (AIA).
