  2. Data deduplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_deduplication

    Whenever a match occurs, the redundant chunk is replaced with a small reference that points to the stored chunk. Given that the same byte pattern may occur dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of times (the match frequency is dependent on the chunk size), the amount of data that must be stored or transferred can be greatly reduced.

  3. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    If, for example, the output is constrained to 32-bit integer values, then the hash values can be used to index into an array. Such hashing is commonly used to accelerate data searches. [ 10 ] Producing fixed-length output from variable-length input can be accomplished by breaking the input data into chunks of specific size.

  4. Chunked transfer encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunked_transfer_encoding

    In chunked transfer encoding, the data stream is divided into a series of non-overlapping "chunks". The chunks are sent out and received independently of one another. No knowledge of the data stream outside the currently-being-processed chunk is necessary for both the sender and the receiver at any given time.

  5. Segmented regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmented_regression

    Segmented regression, also known as piecewise regression or broken-stick regression, is a method in regression analysis in which the independent variable is partitioned into intervals and a separate line segment is fit to each interval. Segmented regression analysis can also be performed on multivariate data by partitioning the various ...

  6. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    A memory address a is said to be n-byte aligned when a is a multiple of n (where n is a power of 2). In this context, a byte is the smallest unit of memory access, i.e. each memory address specifies a different byte.

  7. Software construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_construction

    A study done by NASA showed that the putting the code into well-factored classes can double the code reusability compared to the code developed using functional design. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] One experiment showed that designs which access arrays sequentially, rather than randomly, result in fewer variables and fewer variable references.

  8. Chunking (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunking_(psychology)

    The chunk, as mentioned prior, is a sequence of to-be-remembered information that can be composed of adjacent terms. These items or information sets are to be stored in the same memory code. The process of recoding is where one learns the code for a chunk, and decoding is when the code is translated into the information that it represents.

  9. DNA fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_fragmentation

    Apoptotic DNA fragmentation is a natural fragmentation that cells perform in apoptosis (programmed cell death). DNA fragmentation is a biochemical hallmark of apoptosis.In dying cells, DNA is cleaved by an endonuclease that fragments the chromatin into nucleosomal units, which are multiples of about 180-bp oligomers and appear as a DNA ladder when run on an agarose gel.
