  2. Run-to-completion scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-to-completion_scheduling

    Some preemptive multitasking scheduling systems behave as run-to-completion schedulers in regard to scheduling tasks at one particular process priority level, at the same time as those processes still preempt other lower priority tasks and are themselves preempted by higher priority tasks.

    Then, they are joined again and leave the system. Thus, parallel programming requires synchronization as all the parallel processes wait for several other processes to occur. Producer-Consumer: In a producer-consumer relationship, the consumer process is dependent on the producer process until the necessary data has been produced.

  4. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    In multithreaded computer programming, asynchronous method invocation (AMI), also known as asynchronous method calls or the asynchronous pattern is a design pattern in which the call site is not blocked while waiting for the called code to finish. Instead, the calling thread is notified when the reply arrives.

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. [33] Python is dynamically type-checked and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including structured (particularly procedural), object-oriented and functional ...

  6. Gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

    Some types of gaskets require a sealant be applied directly to the gasket surface to function properly. Some (piping) gaskets are made entirely of metal and rely on a seating surface to accomplish the seal; the metal's own spring characteristics are utilized (up to but not passing σ y, the material's yield strength). This is typical of some ...

  7. Activity selection problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity_selection_problem

    Line 3: Sorts in increasing order of finish times the array of activities by using the finish times stored in the array . This operation can be done in O ( n ⋅ log ⁡ n ) {\displaystyle O(n\cdot \log n)} time, using for example merge sort, heap sort, or quick sort algorithms.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonded_seal

    Originally made by Dowty Group, they are also known as Dowty seals or Dowty washers. [1] Now widely manufactured, they are available in a range of standard sizes and materials [2] [3] [4] A bonded seal consists of an outer annular ring of a hard material, typically steel, and an inner annular ring of an elastomeric material that acts as a ...

  9. wait (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait_(system_call)

    In computer operating systems, a process (or task) may wait for another process to complete its execution. In most systems, a parent process can create an independently executing child process . The parent process may then issue a wait system call , which suspends the execution of the parent process while the child executes.
