  2. Sasser (computer worm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sasser_(computer_worm)

    An indication of the worm's infection of a given PC is the existence of the files C:\win.log, C:\win2.log or C:\WINDOWS\avserve2.exe on the PC's hard disk, the ftp.exe running randomly and 100% CPU usage, as well as seemingly random crashes with LSA Shell (Export Version) caused by faulty code used in the worm. The most characteristic symptom ...

  3. Fair-share scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair-share_scheduling

    On the other hand, if a new user starts a process on the system, the scheduler will reapportion the available CPU cycles such that each user gets 20% of the whole (100% / 5 = 20%). Another layer of abstraction allows us to partition users into groups, and apply the fair share algorithm to the groups as well.

  4. Load (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)

    An idle computer has a load number of 0 (the idle process is not counted). Each process using or waiting for CPU (the ready queue or run queue) increments the load number by 1. Each process that terminates decrements it by 1. Most UNIX systems count only processes in the running (on CPU) or runnable (waiting for CPU) states.

  5. High availability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_availability

    Availability measurement is subject to some degree of interpretation. A system that has been up for 365 days in a non-leap year might have been eclipsed by a network failure that lasted for 9 hours during a peak usage period; the user community will see the system as unavailable, whereas the system administrator will claim 100% uptime.

  6. Uptime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptime

    Uptime is a measure of system reliability, expressed as the period of time a machine, typically a computer, has been continuously working and available.Uptime is the opposite of downtime.

    StatCounter web usage data of desktop or laptop operating systems varies significantly by country. For example, in 2017, macOS usage in North America was at 16.82% [99] (17.52% in the US [100]) whereas in Asia it was only 4.4%. [101] As of July 2023, macOS usage has increased to 30.81% in North America [102] (31.77% in the US) [103] and to 9.64 ...

    Svchost.exe (Service Host, or SvcHost) is a system process that can host one or more Windows services in the Windows NT family of operating systems. [1] Svchost is essential in the implementation of shared service processes, where a number of services can share a process in order to reduce resource consumption.
