  2. Lazy loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_loading

    Lazy loading (also known as asynchronous loading) is a technique used in computer programming, especially web design and web development, to defer initialization of an object until it is needed. It can contribute to efficiency in the program's operation if properly and appropriately used.

  3. Link prefetching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_prefetching

    Link prefetching allows web browsers to pre-load resources. This speeds up both the loading and rendering of web pages. Prefetching was first introduced in HTML5. Prefetching is accomplished through hints in web pages. These hints are used by the browser to prefetch links.

  4. Prefetch input queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefetch_input_queue

    Fetching the instruction opcodes from program memory well in advance is known as prefetching and it is served by using a prefetch input queue (PIQ). The pre-fetched instructions are stored in a queue. The fetching of opcodes well in advance, prior to their need for execution, increases the overall efficiency of the processor boosting its speed ...

    Angular 2.0 was announced at the ng-Europe conference 22–23 October 2014. [17] On April 30, 2015, the Angular developers announced that Angular 2 moved from Alpha to Developer Preview. [18] Angular 2 moved to Beta in December 2015, [19] and the first release candidate was published in May 2016. [20] The final version was released on 14 ...

  6. Lazy initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_initialization

    The lazy initialization technique allows us to do this in just O(m) operations, rather than spending O(m+n) operations to first initialize all array cells. The technique is simply to allocate a table V storing the pairs ( k i , v i ) in some arbitrary order, and to write for each i in the cell T [ k i ] the position in V where key k i is stored ...

  7. Prefetching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefetching

    Prefetching in computer science is a technique for speeding up fetch operations by beginning a fetch operation whose result is expected to be needed soon. Usually this is before it is known to be needed, so there is a risk of wasting time by prefetching data that will not be used. The technique can be applied in several circumstances:

  9. Demand paging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_paging

    In computer operating systems, demand paging (as opposed to anticipatory paging) is a method of virtual memory management. In a system that uses demand paging, the operating system copies a disk page into physical memory only when an attempt is made to access it and that page is not already in memory (i.e., if a page fault occurs).
