In the wireless industry, available revenue time (ART) is the amount of user time available from which mobile carriers may generate revenue. For example, using a wireless mobile device for 60 minutes has enabled the carrier on whose telecommunications network the user's device is operating to generate revenue for 60 minutes. Revenue is typically generated by billing for services such as SMS, mobile video, mobile TV, or other multi-media options typical in modern convergent devices.
Famous quotes containing the words revenue and/or time:
“If you tax too high, the revenue will yield nothing.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Even if fathers are more benignly helpful, and even if they spend time with us teaching us what they know, rarely do they tell us what they feel. They stand apart emotionally: strong perhaps, maybe caring in a nonverbal, implicit way; but their internal world remains mysterious, unseen, “What are they really like?” we ask ourselves. “What do they feel about us, about the world, about themselves?””
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
