空回りする・かき回す Explanation: As Eijiro's sample sentences attest, churn generally has a negative connotation--Shakespeare's "sound and fury, signifying nothing."--in this case, hard disk heads running to and fro, not doing productive work. Even worse is "thrashing." Reference: http://www2.alc.co.jp/ejr/index.php?word_in=churn&word_in2=%... |

入れ替わりの頻度 Explanation: it means the same as regular marketing "churn" but with an IT perspective of how this churn affects system performance and capacity planning. |

チャーン Explanation: Table may be refering to a churn behavior. http://www.usenix.org/event/usenix04/tech/general/rhea/rhea_... This paper addresses the problem of churn--the continuous process of node arrival and departure--in distributed hash tables (DHTs). We argue that DHTs should perform lookups quickly and consistently under churn rates at least as high as those observed in deployed P2P systems such as Kazaa. We then show through experiments on an emulated network that current DHT implementations cannot handle such churn rates. http://dbpubs.stanford.edu:8090/pub/showDoc.Fulltext?lang=en... Node churn The rate at which peers enter and leave the network, as well as how gracefully they disconnect, http://mirage.cs.uoregon.edu/P2P/ |

チャーン Explanation: just a guess チャーン 【churn】 読み方 ： チャーン 短期間に次々と同種のサービスを乗り換える「移り気な」顧客。 競争が激化しているサービスでは、企業間での新サービス提供合戦のような状況が発生する。このような熾烈な競争のターゲットとなった顧客の中には、よりよいサービスを求めて次々に新しいサービスを契約し、解約していく顧客もいる。このような顧客のことをチャーンと呼ぶ。 インターネット接続や携帯電話のようにサービスの普及率が十分高まり、業界全体の規模が飽和した分野では、複数の企業が顧客の争奪戦を繰り広げるような状況になる。この状況で収益を高めていくには、他社の顧客をチャーン化して自社のサービスに呼び寄せるほかに、自社のサービスを利用しているチャーン予備軍をつなぎ止めるという、内外両方に向けたマーケティング戦略が必要になるといわれる。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 12 hrs 25 mins (2005-09-19 01:23:52 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- churn Another word for turnover. For example, "It is said that about forty percent of U.S. job growth is in IT and that those in the industry change jobs on average every eighteen months, amounting to an increasingly high churn rate, compared with past decades." This term also means to produce something at a fast pace but with mediocre results, as in, "Some of those incubators thought that just by pooling office space and resources, they could churn out McStartups by the dozens. Boy, were they wrong." http://www.netlingo.com/lookup.cfm?term=churn Reference: http://e-words.jp/w/E38381E383A3E383BCE383B3.html |
