  2. Longest common subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_subsequence

    It differs from the longest common substring: unlike substrings, subsequences are not required to occupy consecutive positions within the original sequences. The problem of computing longest common subsequences is a classic computer science problem, the basis of data comparison programs such as the diff utility , and has applications in ...

  3. Data deduplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_deduplication

    In computing, data deduplication is a technique for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data. Successful implementation of the technique can improve storage utilization, which may in turn lower capital expenditure by reducing the overall amount of storage media required to meet storage capacity needs.

  4. Maximum subarray problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_subarray_problem

    Maximum subarray problems arise in many fields, such as genomic sequence analysis and computer vision.. Genomic sequence analysis employs maximum subarray algorithms to identify important biological segments of protein sequences that have unusual properties, by assigning scores to points within the sequence that are positive when a motif to be recognized is present, and negative when it is not ...

    The horizontal axis is the index k . (The function is only defined at integer values of k . The connecting lines are only visual guides; they do not indicate ...

  6. Unique key - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_key

    In SQL, the unique keys have a UNIQUE constraint assigned to them in order to prevent duplicates (a duplicate entry is not valid in a unique column). Alternate keys may be used like the primary key when doing a single-table select or when filtering in a where clause, but are not typically used to join multiple tables.

  7. Data dictionary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dictionary

    The terms data dictionary and data repository indicate a more general software utility than a catalogue. A catalogue is closely coupled with the DBMS software. It provides the information stored in it to the user and the DBA, but it is mainly accessed by the various software modules of the DBMS itself, such as DDL and DML compilers, the query optimiser, the transaction processor, report ...

  8. Constant-recursive sequence - Wikipedia

    A constant-recursive sequence is any sequence of integers, rational numbers, algebraic numbers, real numbers, or complex numbers,,,, … (written as () = as a shorthand) satisfying a formula of the form

  9. Consonant cluster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consonant_cluster

    Standard Arabic forbids initial consonant clusters and more than two consecutive consonants in other positions, as do most other Semitic languages, although Modern Israeli Hebrew permits initial two-consonant clusters (e.g. pkak "cap"; dlaat "pumpkin"), and Moroccan Arabic, under Berber influence, allows strings of several consonants.
