  2. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal to 0) is used.

    3.25 RPSP to 1/2 ⇒ result is 3.5; 3.5 round-half-to-even to 1 ⇒ result is 4 (wrong) If the erroneous middle step is removed, the final rounding to integer rounds 3.25 to the correct value of 3. RPSP is implemented in hardware in IBM zSeries and pSeries.

  4. Arithmetic coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_coding

    When naively Huffman coding binary strings, no compression is possible, even if entropy is low (e.g. ({0, 1}) has probabilities {0.95, 0.05}). Huffman encoding assigns 1 bit to each value, resulting in a code of the same length as the input. By contrast, arithmetic coding compresses bits well, approaching the optimal compression ratio of

    This task group meets utilization is no greater than 1.0, where utilization is calculated as 5/20+3/11+4/10+1/20 = 0.97 (two digits rounded), but it's still unscheduable, check EDF Scheduling Failure figure for details.

  7. NumPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    NumPy (pronounced / ˈ n ʌ m p aɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [3]

  8. Significant figures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures

    For example, if we want to round 1.2459 to 3 significant figures, then this step results in 1.25. If the n + 1 digit is 5 not followed by other digits or followed by only zeros, then rounding requires a tie-breaking rule. For example, to round 1.25 to 2 significant figures: Round half away from zero rounds up to 1.3.

  9. Round-robin scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_scheduling

    A Round Robin preemptive scheduling example with quantum=3. Round-robin (RR) is one of the algorithms employed by process and network schedulers in computing. [1] [2] As the term is generally used, time slices (also known as time quanta) [3] are assigned to each process in equal portions and in circular order, handling all processes without priority (also known as cyclic executive).
