    Usually capitalized, but may appear as "abend". Some common ABEND codes are System ABEND 0C7 (data exception) and System ABEND 0CB (division by zero). [1] [2] [3] Abends can be "soft" (allowing automatic recovery) or "hard" (terminating the activity). [4] The term is jocularly claimed to be derived from the German word "Abend" meaning "evening ...

  3. Signal (IPC) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_(IPC)

    The raise(3) library function sends the specified signal to the current process. Exceptions such as division by zero, segmentation violation , and floating point exception will cause a core dump and terminate the program. The kernel can generate signals to notify processes of events.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_status

    The return value from main is passed to the exit function, which for values zero, EXIT_SUCCESS or EXIT_FAILURE may translate it to "an implementation defined form" of successful termination or unsuccessful termination.

    The concept of a single point of failure has also been applied to fields outside of engineering, computers, and networking, such as corporate supply chain management [6] and transportation management. [7] Design structures that create single points of failure include bottlenecks and series circuits (in contrast to parallel circuits).

  7. Exception handling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_handling

    The definition of an exception is based on the observation that each procedure has a precondition, a set of circumstances for which it will terminate "normally".

  9. Command mode and Data mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_mode_and_Data_mode

    One specific DLE event signals the end of a fax page, or the end of an audio file. That event returns the modem back into command mode. Unlike in standard dial-up data mode, dropping DTR isn't an appropriate way to resume command mode since a hangup is not desired, and an escape code with mandatory pauses isn't suitable either.
