  2. Backward compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_compatibility

    In telecommunications and computing, backward compatibility (or backwards compatibility) is a property of an operating system, software, real-world product, or technology that allows for interoperability with an older legacy system, or with input designed for such a system. Modifying a system in a way that does not allow backward compatibility ...

  3. Backward Euler method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_Euler_method

    The region of absolute stability for the backward Euler method is the complement in the complex plane of the disk with radius 1 centered at 1, depicted in the figure. [4] This includes the whole left half of the complex plane, making it suitable for the solution of stiff equations. [5] In fact, the backward Euler method is even L-stable.

  4. Backward design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_design

    Backward design is a method of designing an educational curriculum by setting goals before choosing instructional methods and forms of assessment. Backward design of curriculum typically involves three stages: [1][2][3] Identify the results desired (big ideas and skills) What the students should know, understand, and be able to do.

  5. Forward compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_compatibility

    Forward compatibility. Forward compatibility or upward compatibility is a design characteristic that allows a system to accept input intended for a later version of itself. The concept can be applied to entire systems, electrical interfaces, telecommunication signals, data communication protocols, file formats, and programming languages.

  6. Lateral pass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_pass

    A lateral during an option play. In gridiron football, a lateral pass or lateral (officially backward pass in American football and onside pass in Canadian football) occurs when the ball carrier throws the football to a teammate in a direction parallel to or away from the opponents' goal line. A lateral pass is distinguished from a forward pass ...

  7. Finite difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference

    Finite difference. A finite difference is a mathematical expression of the form f (x + b) − f (x + a). If a finite difference is divided by b − a, one gets a difference quotient. The approximation of derivatives by finite differences plays a central role in finite difference methods for the numerical solution of differential equations ...

  8. List of backward-compatible games for Xbox One and Series X/S

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_backward...

    The Xbox Series X/S was released in 2020 and was confirmed to be backwards compatible with the same list of games as the Xbox One at launch. On November 15, 2021, a "final addition" of 76 titles was published as part of the 20th anniversary of the launch of the original Xbox console. [2] This is the following list of all backward compatible ...

  9. Backward differentiation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_differentiation...

    The backward differentiation formula (BDF) is a family of implicit methods for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations.They are linear multistep methods that, for a given function and time, approximate the derivative of that function using information from already computed time points, thereby increasing the accuracy of the approximation.
