  2. Reset (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, in the x86 architecture, asserting the RESET line halts the CPU; this is done after the system is switched on and before the power supply has asserted "power good" to indicate that it is ready to supply stable voltages at sufficient power levels. [2] Reset places less stress on the hardware than power cycling, as the power is not ...

  3. Firewall pinhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_pinhole

    In computer networking, a firewall pinhole is a port that is not protected by a firewall to allow a particular application to gain access to a service on a host in the network protected by the firewall. [1] [2] Leaving ports open in firewall configurations exposes the protected system to potentially malicious abuse.

  4. Nonvolatile BIOS memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonvolatile_BIOS_memory

    It is referred to as non-volatile memory or NVRAM because, after the system loses power, it does retain state by virtue of the CMOS battery. When the battery fails, BIOS settings are reset to their defaults. The battery can also be used to power a real time clock (RTC) and the RTC, NVRAM and battery may be integrated into a single component.

    Mobile phones with non-removable rear cover typically house SIM and memory cards in a small tray on the handset's frame, ejected by inserting a needle tool into a pinhole. [ 242 ] Some earlier mid-range phones such as the 2011 Samsung Galaxy Fit and Ace have a sideways memory card slot on the frame covered by a cap that can be opened without tool.

    120,000 people attended an anti-nuclear protest in Bonn, West Germany, on 14 October 1979, following the Three Mile Island accident. [13]A popular movement against nuclear power exists in the Western world, based on concerns about more nuclear accidents and concerns about nuclear waste.

  7. Pinhole camera model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera_model

    The geometry of a pinhole camera. Note: the x 1 x 2 x 3 coordinate system in the figure is left-handed, that is the direction of the OZ axis is in reverse to the system the reader may be used to. The geometry related to the mapping of a pinhole camera is illustrated in the figure. The figure contains the following basic objects:

  8. Pinhole occluder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_occluder

    A pinhole occluder is an opaque disk with one or more small holes through it, used by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists to test visual acuity. The occluder is a simple way to focus light, as in a pinhole camera , temporarily removing the effects of refractive errors such as myopia .
