  2. Space Shuttle abort modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_abort_modes

    ATO was the preferred abort option whenever possible. TAL was the preferred abort option if the vehicle had not yet reached a speed permitting the ATO option. AOA would have been only used in the brief window between TAL and ATO options, or if a time-critical emergency (such as a medical emergency on board) developed after the end of the TAL ...

  3. Windows Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  4. Non-standard RAID levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-standard_RAID_levels

    There are five different RAID-Z modes: RAID-Z0 (similar to RAID 0, offers no redundancy), RAID-Z1 (similar to RAID 5, allows one disk to fail), RAID-Z2 (similar to RAID 6, allows two disks to fail), RAID-Z3 (a RAID 7 [a] configuration, allows three disks to fail), and mirror (similar to RAID 1, allows all but one of the disks to fail).

  5. Nested RAID levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_RAID_levels

    RAID 01, also called RAID 0+1, is a RAID level using a mirror of stripes, achieving both replication and sharing of data between disks. [3] The usable capacity of a RAID 01 array is the same as in a RAID 1 array made of the same drives, in which one half of the drives is used to mirror the other half.

  6. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    The final digit of a Universal Product Code, International Article Number, Global Location Number or Global Trade Item Number is a check digit computed as follows: [3] [4]. Add the digits in the odd-numbered positions from the left (first, third, fifth, etc.—not including the check digit) together and multiply by three.

  7. Fletcher's checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fletcher's_checksum

    Fletcher addresses both of these weaknesses by computing a second value along with the simple checksum. This is the modular sum of the values taken by the simple checksum as each block of the data word is added to it.

  8. Data redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_redundancy

    While different in nature, data redundancy also occurs in database systems that have values repeated unnecessarily in one or more records or fields, ...

  9. Computation of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computation_of_cyclic...

    Computation of a cyclic redundancy check is derived from the mathematics of polynomial division, modulo two. In practice, it resembles long division of the binary message string, with a fixed number of zeroes appended, by the "generator polynomial" string except that exclusive or operations replace subtractions.
