  2. Reverse domain name notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_domain_name_notation

    Reverse domain name notation (or reverse-DNS) is a naming convention for components, packages, types or file names used by a programming language, system or framework. Reverse-DNS strings are based on registered domain names, with the order of the components reversed for grouping purposes.

  3. Reverse DNS lookup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_DNS_lookup

    In computer networks, a reverse DNS lookup or reverse DNS resolution (rDNS) is the querying technique of the Domain Name System (DNS) to determine the domain name associated with an IP address – the reverse of the usual "forward" DNS lookup of an IP address from a domain name. [1]

  4. Name resolution (computer systems) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_resolution_(computer...

    The GNU C Library provides various operating system facilities that shell commands and other applications can call to resolve such names to the corresponding addresses or IDs, and vice versa. Some Linux distributions use an nsswitch.conf file to specify the order in which multiple resolution services are used to effect such lookups.

  5. DNSCurve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNSCurve

    DNSCurve is a proposed secure protocol for the Domain Name System (DNS), designed by Daniel J. Bernstein. It encrypts and authenticates DNS packets between resolvers and authoritative servers. DNSCurve claims advantages over previous DNS services of: [1] Confidentiality—usual DNS requests and responses are not encrypted, and broadcast to any ...

  6. Domain Name System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System

    The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical and distributed name service that provides a naming system for computers, services, and other resources on the Internet or other Internet Protocol (IP) networks. It associates various information with domain names (identification strings) assigned to each of the associated entities.

  8. Direct numerical simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_numerical_simulation

    Therefore, the computational cost of DNS is very high, even at low Reynolds numbers. For the Reynolds numbers encountered in most industrial applications, the computational resources required by a DNS would exceed the capacity of the most powerful computers currently available. However, direct numerical simulation is a useful tool in ...

  9. Public recursive name server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_recursive_name_server

    A public recursive name server (also called public DNS resolver) is a name server service that networked computers may use to query the Domain Name System (DNS), the decentralized Internet naming system, in place of (or in addition to) name servers operated by the local Internet service provider (ISP) to which the devices are connected.
