  4. Memory safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_safety

    Protection relies upon hardware memory protection and thus overhead is typically not substantial, although it can grow significantly if the program makes heavy use of allocation. [16] Randomization provides only probabilistic protection against memory errors, but can often be easily implemented in existing software by relinking the binary.

    Then 6 or 7 bits are replaced by fixed values, the 4-bit version (e.g. 0011 2 for version 3), and the 2- or 3-bit UUID "variant" (e.g. 10 2 indicating a RFC 9562 UUIDs, or 110 2 indicating a legacy Microsoft GUID). Since 6 or 7 bits are thus predetermined, only 121 or 122 bits contribute to the uniqueness of the UUID.

    Starting with Windows Phone 7 for mobile devices [43] and Windows 8 for computers, not all display languages are preinstalled/available for download on all devices with an OEM license of Windows. Users may not see all the display languages listed as options on the device or as options available for download as separate language packs.

  7. RDRAND - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RdRand

    RDRAND (for "read random") is an instruction for returning random numbers from an Intel on-chip hardware random number generator which has been seeded by an on-chip entropy source. [1] It is also known as Intel Secure Key Technology , [ 2 ] codenamed Bull Mountain . [ 3 ]

  8. Soft error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_error

    For the common reference location of 40.7° N, 74° W at sea level (New York City, NY, USA), the flux is approximately 14 neutrons/cm 2 /hour. Burying a system in a cave reduces the rate of cosmic-ray-induced soft errors to a negligible level.

  9. COM (hardware interface) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COM_(hardware_interface)

    In the case of COM1, these registers can be accessed by writing to or reading from the I/O addresses 0x3F8 to 0x3FF. If the CPU, for example, wants to send information out on COM1, it writes to I/O port 0x3F8 , as this I/O port is "connected" to the UART IC register which holds the information that is to be sent out.
