  2. Windows SteadyState - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_SteadyState

    SteadyState can prepare user environments. User accounts can be locked or forced to log off after certain intervals. A locked account uses a temporary copy of the user's profile during the user's session. When the user logs off, the temporary profile is deleted. This ensures that any changes the user made during his session are not permanent.

  3. Lockstep (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockstep_(computing)

    When a new set of inputs reaches the system, it processes them, generates new outputs and updates its state. This set of changes (new inputs, new outputs, new state) is considered to define that step, and must be treated as an atomic transaction; in other words, either all of it happens, or none of it happens, but not something in between.

    DSpace is an open source repository software package typically used for creating open access repositories for scholarly and/or published digital content. While DSpace shares some feature overlap with content management systems and document management systems, the DSpace repository software serves a specific need as a digital archives system, focused on the long-term storage, access and ...

  5. Double-checked locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-checked_locking

    In software engineering, double-checked locking (also known as "double-checked locking optimization" [1]) is a software design pattern used to reduce the overhead of acquiring a lock by testing the locking criterion (the "lock hint") before acquiring the lock. Locking occurs only if the locking criterion check indicates that locking is required.

    In computer engineering, Halt and Catch Fire, known by the assembly language mnemonic HCF, is an idiom referring to a computer machine code instruction that causes the computer's central processing unit (CPU) to cease meaningful operation, typically requiring a restart of the computer.

  7. Deadlock prevention algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_prevention_algorithms

    The second does not do distributed deadlock prevention. But the second one is redefined to prevent a deadlock scenario the first one does not address. Recursively, only one thread is allowed to pass through a lock. If other threads enter the lock, they must wait until the initial thread that passed through completes n number of times.

  8. Distributed lock manager - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_lock_manager

    A lock value block is associated with each resource. This can be read by any process that has obtained a lock on the resource (other than a null lock) and can be updated by a process that has obtained a protected update or exclusive lock on it. It can be used to hold any information about the resource that the application designer chooses.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuraSpace

    DuraSpace was founded in 2009 [1] with the merger of the Fedora Commons organization [2] and the DSpace Foundation, [3] two of the world's largest providers of open source digital repository software for managing and providing access to digital content. [4] [5] In July 2019 DuraSpace merged with Lyrasis, becoming a division of that organization ...
