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:
“Happy are those who find wisdom, and those who get understanding, for her income is better than silver, and her revenue better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called happy.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 3:13-18.
“If the religious spirit be ever mentioned in any historical narration, we are sure to meet afterwards with a detail of the miseries which attend it. And no period of time can be happier or more prosperous, than those in which it is never regarded or heard of.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
