  2. Control-flow integrity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-flow_integrity

    Before performing each indirect function call, the application checks if the destination address is in the bitmap. If the destination address is not in the bitmap, the program terminates. [ 20 ] This makes it more difficult for an attacker to exploit a use-after-free by replacing an object's contents and then using an indirect function call to ...

  3. Indirect branch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indirect_branch

    An indirect branch (also known as a computed jump, indirect jump and register-indirect jump) is a type of program control instruction present in some machine language instruction sets. Rather than specifying the address of the next instruction to execute , as in a direct branch , the argument specifies where the address is located.

  4. Branch predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_predictor

    An indirect jump instruction can choose among more than two branches. Some processors have specialized indirect branch predictors. [17] [18] Newer processors from Intel [19] and AMD [20] can predict indirect branches by using a two-level adaptive predictor. This kind of instruction contributes more than one bit to the history buffer.

  5. Proof by contradiction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_contradiction

    More broadly, proof by contradiction is any form of argument that establishes a statement by arriving at a contradiction, even when the initial assumption is not the negation of the statement to be proved. In this general sense, proof by contradiction is also known as indirect proof, proof by assuming the opposite, [2] and reductio ad ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    MediaWiki stores rendered formulas in a cache so that the images of those formulas do not need to be created each time the page is opened by a user. To force the rerendering of all formulas of a page, you must open it with the getter variables action=purge&mathpurge=true. Imagine for example there is a wrong rendered formula in the article Integral

  7. Indirect costs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indirect_costs

    Indirect costs are costs that are not directly accountable to a cost object (such as a particular project, facility, function or product). Like direct costs, indirect costs may be either fixed or variable. Indirect costs include administration, personnel and security costs. These are those costs which are not directly related to production.

  8. Gorman polar form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorman_polar_form

    Inverting this formula gives the indirect utility function (utility as a function of price and income): (,) = (),where is the amount of income available to the individual and is equivalent to the expenditure ((,)) in the previous equation.

  9. Direct and indirect band gaps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_and_indirect_band_gaps

    In an "indirect" gap, a photon cannot be emitted because the electron must pass through an intermediate state and transfer momentum to the crystal lattice. Examples of direct bandgap materials include hydrogenated amorphous silicon and some III–V materials such as InAs and GaAs. Indirect bandgap materials include crystalline silicon and Ge.
