  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Functions with promises also have promise aggregation methods that allow the program to await multiple promises at once or in some special pattern (such as C#'s Task.WhenAll(), [1]: 174–175 [13]: 664–665 which returns a valueless Task that resolves when all of the tasks in the arguments have resolved). Many promise types also have ...

  3. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    The terms future, promise, delay, and deferred are often used interchangeably, although some differences in usage between future and promise are treated below. Specifically, when usage is distinguished, a future is a read-only placeholder view of a variable, while a promise is a writable, single assignment container which sets the value of the ...

  4. JavaScript - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript

    A built-in Promise object provides functionality for handling promises and associating handlers with an asynchronous action's eventual result. Recently, the JavaScript specification introduced combinator methods, which allow developers to combine multiple JavaScript promises and do operations based on different scenarios.

    If the user forgets the setting, you may get undeclared variable errors. If you want your user script to write and save configuration settings as it is running, you may want to have it write to its own .js file in the user's userspace. See twinkleoptions.js or redwarnConfig.js for examples.

  6. Promise problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promise_problem

    The promise is the set of directed acyclic graphs. In this example, the promise is easy to check. In particular, it is very easy to check if a given graph is cyclic. However, the promised property could be difficult to evaluate. For instance, consider the problem "Given a Hamiltonian graph, determine if the graph has a cycle of size 4."

  7. Computer multitasking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_multitasking

    New tasks can interrupt already started ones before they finish, instead of waiting for them to end. As a result, a computer executes segments of multiple tasks in an interleaved manner, while the tasks share common processing resources such as central processing units (CPUs) and main memory. Multitasking automatically interrupts the running ...

  8. HTTP/2 Server Push - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP/2_Server_Push

    HTTP/2 Server Push is an optional [1] feature of the HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 network protocols that allows servers to send resources to a client before the client requests them. Server Push is a performance technique aimed at reducing latency by sending resources to a client preemptively before it knows they will be needed. [2]

  9. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    In computer science and software engineering, busy-waiting, busy-looping or spinning is a technique in which a process repeatedly checks to see if a condition is true, such as whether keyboard input or a lock is available. Spinning can also be used to generate an arbitrary time delay, a technique that was necessary on systems that lacked a ...
