  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    Use of futures may be implicit (any use of the future automatically obtains its value, as if it were an ordinary reference) or explicit (the user must call a function to obtain the value, such as the get method of java.util.concurrent.Futurein Java). Obtaining the value of an explicit future can be called stinging or forcing. Explicit futures ...

  3. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    In multithreaded computer programming, asynchronous method invocation (AMI), also known as asynchronous method calls or the asynchronous pattern is a design pattern in which the call site is not blocked while waiting for the called code to finish. Instead, the calling thread is notified when the reply arrives. Polling for a reply is an ...

  4. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_(computer...

    Also, the delivery need not be made directly to the customer. A callback need not be to the calling function. In fact, a function would generally not pass itself as a callback. Some find the use of back to be misleading since the call is (generally) not back to the original caller as it is for a telephone call.

  5. Remote procedure call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_procedure_call

    Java's Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) API provides similar functionality to standard Unix RPC methods. Go provides package rpc for implementing RPC, with support for asynchronous calls. Modula-3's network objects, which were the basis for Java's RMI [10] RPyC implements RPC mechanisms in Python, with support for asynchronous calls.

  6. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    First, the async keyword indicates to C# that the method is asynchronous, meaning that it may use an arbitrary number of await expressions and will bind the result to a promise. [1]: 165–168 The return type, Task<T>, is C#'s analogue to the concept of a promise, and here is indicated to have a result value of type int.

  7. Java remote method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_remote_method_invocation

    A typical implementation model of Java-RMI using stub and skeleton objects. Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v1.2 removed the need for a skeleton. The Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) is a Java API that performs remote method invocation, the object-oriented equivalent of remote procedure calls (RPC), with support for direct transfer of serialized Java classes and distributed garbage ...

  8. RStudio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RStudio

    RStudio IDE (or RStudio) is an integrated development environment for R, a programming language for statistical computing and graphics. It is available in two formats: RStudio Desktop is a regular desktop application while RStudio Server runs on a remote server and allows accessing RStudio using a web browser.

  9. Tail call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_call

    For example, in the Java virtual machine (JVM), tail-recursive calls can be eliminated (as this reuses the existing call stack), but general tail calls cannot be (as this changes the call stack). [ 13 ] [ 14 ] As a result, functional languages such as Scala that target the JVM can efficiently implement direct tail recursion, but not mutual tail ...
