  2. ABA problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABA_problem

    In multithreaded computing, the ABA problem occurs during synchronization, when a location is read twice, has the same value for both reads, and the read value being the same twice is used to conclude that nothing has happened in the interim; however, another thread can execute between the two reads and change the value, do other work, then change the value back, thus fooling the first thread ...

  3. Round-trip delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-trip_delay

    RTT is a measure of the amount of time taken for an entire message to be sent to a destination and for a reply to be sent back to the sender. The time to send the message to the destination in its entirety is known as the network latency, and thus RTT is twice the latency in the network plus a processing delay at the destination. The other ...

  4. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games. [1]

  5. PACELC theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The PACELC theorem was first described by Daniel Abadi from Yale University in 2010 in a blog post, [2] which he later clarified in a paper in 2012. [3] The purpose of PACELC is to address his thesis that "Ignoring the consistency/latency trade-off of replicated systems is a major oversight [in CAP], as it is present at all times during system operation, whereas CAP is only relevant in the ...

  6. Network delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_delay

    Graphical depiction of contributions to network delay. Network delay is a design and performance characteristic of a telecommunications network.It specifies the latency for a bit of data to travel across the network from one communication endpoint to another.

  7. Applied behavior analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_behavior_analysis

    Applied behavior analysis (ABA), also referred to as behavioral engineering, [1] [2] is a psychological discipline that applies the principles of learning based upon respondent and operant conditioning to change socially significant behavior. ABA is the applied form of behavior analysis; the other two are: radical behaviorism (or the philosophy ...

    Amazon has changed its return policy in an effort to cut down on costs. Amazon customers used to be able to drop off returns at UPS stores free of charge, but now the world's largest online ...

  9. Turn restriction routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_restriction_routing

    Turn restriction routing [1] is a routing algorithm for mesh-family of topologies which avoids deadlocks by restricting the types of turns that are allowed in the algorithm while determining the route from source node to destination node in a network. Fig 1: Figure shows four channels with both input and output buffers full.
