BSC

BSC is an acronym that can refer to several different organizations, technologies, and concepts depending on context. The most prominent current use is Binance Smart Chain, commonly abbreviated as BSC. Binance Smart Chain is a blockchain platform launched by Binance in 2020 to enable smart contracts and decentralized applications. It runs in parallel with Binance Chain and uses a dual-chain architecture to support cross-chain transfers. BSC is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, allowing developers to deploy Ethereum-based apps with relatively low transaction fees and faster confirmation times. In 2022–2023 Binance rebranded the ecosystem as BNB Chain to emphasize cross-chain interoperability, though the term BSC is still widely used to refer to the original smart-chain functionality.

Base Station Controller (BSC) is a principal component in GSM and other cellular networks. It acts as the radio network's central controller, managing resources on multiple base station subsystems, handling mobility management, handovers, and security functions, and interfacing with the core switching subsystem. The BSC coordinates traffic between wireless access points and the network core, and it may be connected to BSCs for inter-cell coordination or to packet data networks for data services.

Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is a strategic planning and management framework introduced in the 1990s that translates an organization's vision into a set of performance metrics across four perspectives: financial, customer, internal business processes, and learning and growth. It is used to align activities to strategy and monitor performance through a balanced set of indicators rather than relying solely on financial metrics.

Business Service Center (BSC) refers to a centralized unit within an organization that consolidates and delivers back-office services such as finance, human resources, information technology, and procurement. BSCs aim to improve efficiency, standardize processes, and provide scalable support for multiple business units, often operating under shared services or outsourcing arrangements.
