  2. Lightning Memory-Mapped Database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped...

    Lightning Memory-Mapped Database (LMDB) is an embedded transactional database in the form of a key-value store. LMDB is written in C with API bindings for several programming languages . LMDB stores arbitrary key/data pairs as byte arrays, has a range-based search capability, supports multiple data items for a single key and has a special mode ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DICT

    The standard dictd [7] server made by the DICT Development Group [1] uses a special dict file format. It comprises two files, a .index file and a .dict file (or .dict.dz if compressed). These files are usually generated by a program called dictfmt. For example, the Unix command:

  4. Torch (machine learning) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torch_(machine_learning)

    The torch package also simplifies object-oriented programming and serialization by providing various convenience functions which are used throughout its packages. The torch.class(classname, parentclass) function can be used to create object factories ().

  5. Property list - Wikipedia

    The array, set and dictionary binary types are made up of pointers - the objref and keyref entries - that index into an object table in the file. This means that binary plists can capture the fact that - for example - a separate array and dictionary serialized into a file both have the same data element stored in them.

    A return stroke, cloud-to-ground lightning strike during a thunderstorm. Cloud-to-ground lightning frequently occurs within the phenomena of thunderstorms and have numerous hazards towards landscapes and populations. One of the more significant hazards lightning can pose is the wildfires they are capable of igniting. [54]

  7. Harvesting lightning energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvesting_lightning_energy

    To facilitate the harvesting of lightning, a laser-induced plasma channel (LIPC) could theoretically be used to influence lightning to strike in a predictable location. A high power laser could be used to form an ionized column of gas, which would act as an atmospheric conduit for electrical discharges of lightning, which would direct the lightning to a ground station for harvesting.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sdcv

    sdcv is a simple, cross-platform text-base utility for work with dictionaries in StarDict's format. The word from "list of words" may be string with leading '/' for using Fuzzy search algorithm, string may contain '?' and '*' for using regexp search.

  9. Runaway breakdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runaway_breakdown

    Runaway breakdown is a theory of lightning initiation proposed by Alex Gurevich in 1992. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Electrons in air have a mean free path of ~1 cm. Fast electrons which move at a large fraction of the speed of light have a mean free path up to 100 times longer.
