  2. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff

    In a binary exponential backoff algorithm (i.e. one where b = 2), after c collisions, each retransmission is delayed by a random number of slot times between 0 and 2 c − 1. After the first collision, each sender will wait 0 or 1 slot times. After the second collision, the senders will wait anywhere from 0 to 3 slot times . After the third ...

  3. Delay slot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay_slot

    In computer architecture, a delay slot is an instruction slot being executed without the effects of a preceding instruction. [1] The most common form is a single arbitrary instruction located immediately after a branch instruction on a RISC or DSP architecture; this instruction will execute even if the preceding branch is taken.

  4. Little's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little's_law

    In mathematical queueing theory, Little's law (also result, theorem, lemma, or formula [1] [2]) is a theorem by John Little which states that the long-term average number L of customers in a stationary system is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate λ multiplied by the average time W that a customer spends in the system.

  5. Shortest job next - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_job_next

    [1] Shortest job next can be effectively used with interactive processes which generally follow a pattern of alternating between waiting for a command and executing it. If the execution burst of a process is regarded as a separate "job", the past behaviour can indicate which process to run next, based on an estimate of its running time.

  6. Batch file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_file

    No solution was available from Microsoft, but a number of small utility programs, could be installed from other sources. A commercial example would be the 1988 Norton Utilities Batch Enhancer (BE) command, where BE DELAY 18 would wait for 1 second, or the free 94-byte WAIT.COM [11] where WAIT 5 would wait for 5 seconds, then return control to ...

  7. Settling time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Settling_time

    The settling time for a second order, underdamped system responding to a step response can be approximated if the damping ratio by = ⁡ () A general form is T s = − ln ⁡ ( tolerance fraction × 1 − ζ 2 ) damping ratio × natural freq {\displaystyle T_{s}=-{\frac {\ln({\text{tolerance fraction}}\times {\sqrt {1-\zeta ^{2}}})}{{\text ...

  8. This Social Security Spousal Rule Finally Fizzled Out in 2024 ...

    The rule changed through the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, making it so anyone who turned 62 after Jan. 1, 2016, could no longer maximize Social Security benefits in this way.

  9. Elmore delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmore_delay

    Elmore delay [1] is a simple approximation to the delay through an RC network in an electronic system. It is often used in applications such as logic synthesis, delay calculation, static timing analysis, placement and routing, since it is simple to compute (especially in tree structured networks, which are the vast majority of signal nets within ICs) and is reasonably accurate.
