  2. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer. A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking.

  3. Asynchronous procedure call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_procedure_call

    An asynchronous procedure call (APC) is a unit of work in a computer. ... APC is a function that executes asynchronously in the context of a specific thread. [1]

  4. Apex beat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apex_beat

    The apex beat may also be displaced by other conditions: Pleural or pulmonary diseases; Deformities of the chest wall or the thoracic vertebrae; Sometimes, the apex beat may not be palpable, either due to a thick chest wall, or conditions where the stroke volume is reduced; such as during ventricular tachycardia or shock.

  5. Tail call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_call

    When a function has to tail-call another, instead of calling it directly and then returning the result, it returns the address of the function to be called and the call parameters back to the trampoline (from which it was called itself), and the trampoline takes care of calling this function next with the specified parameters.

  6. Basic call state model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_call_state_model

    A fundamental concept for IN control is the basic call state model (BCSM). When a call is processed by an exchange, the call goes through a number of pre-defined phases. These phases of the call are described in the BCSM. The BCSM generally follows the ISUP signalling of a call

  7. Coracoid process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracoid_process

    The coracoid process acts as an attachment and origin for a large number of muscles (attached muscles not labeled here). The coracoid process is a thick curved process attached by a broad base to the upper part of the neck of the scapula; [2] it runs at first upward and medially; then, becoming smaller, it changes its direction, and projects forward and laterally.

  8. Inversion of control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_of_control

    In traditional programming, the flow of the business logic is determined by objects that are statically bound to one another. With inversion of control, the flow depends on the object graph that is built up during program execution. Such a dynamic flow is made possible by object interactions that are defined through abstractions.

  9. Call stack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_stack

    A call stack is used for several related purposes, but the main reason for having one is to keep track of the point to which each active subroutine should return control when it finishes executing. An active subroutine is one that has been called, but is yet to complete execution, after which control should be handed back to the point of call.
