  2. Frontend and backend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontend_and_Backend

    In software development, frontend refers to the presentation layer that users interact with, while backend involves the data management and processing behind the scenes. In the client–server model, the client is usually considered the frontend, handling user-facing tasks, and the server is the backend, managing data and logic.

  3. Gribov ambiguity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gribov_ambiguity

    The difficulty arises because the gauge fixing condition is usually specified as a differential equation of some sort, e.g. that a divergence vanish (as in the Landau or Lorenz gauge). The solutions to this equation may end up specifying multiple sections, or perhaps none at all. This is called a Gribov ambiguity (named after Vladimir Gribov).

  4. Sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting

    Such a component or property is called a sort key. For example, the items are books, the sort key is the title, subject or author, and the order is alphabetical. A new sort key can be created from two or more sort keys by lexicographical order. The first is then called the primary sort key, the second the secondary sort key, etc.

  5. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    Radix sort is an algorithm that sorts numbers by processing individual digits. n numbers consisting of k digits each are sorted in O(n · k) time. Radix sort can process digits of each number either starting from the least significant digit (LSD) or starting from the most significant digit (MSD). The LSD algorithm first sorts the list by the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_law

    Conservation of angular momentum L = r × p: Rotation invariance: 3 rotation of space about x,y,z axes Conservation of boost 3-vector N = tp - Er: Lorentz-boost invariance: 3 Lorentz-boost of space-time along x,y,z axes Conservation of electric charge: U(1) Q Gauge invariance: 1 translation of electrodynamic scalar potential field along V-axis ...

  7. Block sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Sort

    Block sort, or block merge sort, is a sorting algorithm combining at least two merge operations with an insertion sort to arrive at O(n log n) (see Big O notation) in-place stable sorting time. It gets its name from the observation that merging two sorted lists, A and B , is equivalent to breaking A into evenly sized blocks , inserting each A ...

  8. Connection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connection_(mathematics)

    There are various kinds of connections in modern geometry, depending on what sort of data one wants to transport. For instance, an affine connection , the most elementary type of connection, gives a means for parallel transport of tangent vectors on a manifold from one point to another along a curve.

  9. Selection sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_sort

    A bidirectional variant of selection sort (called double selection sort or sometimes cocktail sort due to its similarity to cocktail shaker sort) finds both the minimum and maximum values in the list in every pass. This requires three comparisons per two items (a pair of elements is compared, then the greater is compared to the maximum and the ...
