  2. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    One can also pass a callback method to BeginAccomplish, to be invoked when the long-running method completes. It typically calls EndAccomplish to obtain the return value of the long-running method. A problem with the callback mechanism is that the callback function is naturally executed in the worker thread (rather than in the original calling ...

  3. Forwarding (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forwarding_(object...

    In this Java example, the Printer class has a print method. This print method, rather than performing the print itself, forwards to an object of class RealPrinter. To the outside world it appears that the Printer object is doing the print, but the RealPrinter object is the one actually doing the work.

    A typical implementation model of Java-RMI using stub and skeleton objects. Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v1.2 removed the need for a skeleton. The Java Remote Method Invocation (Java RMI) is a Java API that performs remote method invocation, the object-oriented equivalent of remote procedure calls (RPC), with support for direct transfer of serialized Java classes and distributed garbage ...

    Law of the unconscious statistician: The expected value of a measurable function of , (), given that has a probability density function (), is given by the inner product of and : [34] ⁡ [()] = (). This formula also holds in multidimensional case, when g {\displaystyle g} is a function of several random variables, and f {\displaystyle f} is ...

    The Lazy interface with its eval() method is equivalent to the Supplier interface with its get() method in the java.util.function library. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] : 200 Each class that implements the Lazy interface must provide an eval method, and instances of the class may carry whatever values the method needs to accomplish lazy evaluation.

    The keyword Sub is used to return no value and Function to return a value. When used in the context of a class, a procedure is a method. [27] Each parameter has a data type that can be specified, but if not, defaults to Object for later versions based on .NET and variant for VB6. [28]

    Notably, the delivery need not be made by the clerk who took the order. A callback need not be called by the function that accepted the callback as a parameter. Also, the delivery need not be made directly to the customer. A callback need not be to the calling function. In fact, a function would generally not pass itself as a callback.

  9. Calling convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calling_convention

    When the called function completes, it places the return value in the first "in" register, which becomes the first "out" register when the called function returns. The System V ABI , [ 12 ] which most modern Unix -like systems follow, passes the first six arguments in "in" registers %i0 through %i5, reserving %i6 for the frame pointer and %i7 ...
