  2. List of concurrent and parallel programming languages

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_concurrent_and...

    Concurrent and parallel programming languages involve multiple timelines. Such languages provide synchronization constructs whose behavior is defined by a parallel execution model. A concurrent programming language is defined as one which uses the concept of simultaneously executing processes or threads of execution as a means of structuring a ...

  3. Compile time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compile_time

    In computer science, compile time (or compile-time) describes the time window during which a language's statements are converted into binary instructions for the processor to execute. [1] The term is used as an adjective to describe concepts related to the context of program compilation, as opposed to concepts related to the context of program ...

  4. Ahead-of-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahead-of-time_compilation

    In computer science, ahead-of-time compilation (AOT compilation) is the act of compiling an (often) higher-level programming language into an (often) lower-level language before execution of a program, usually at build-time, to reduce the amount of work needed to be performed at run time.

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Enhancement of the language corresponds with the development of the CPython reference implementation. The mailing list python-dev is the primary forum for the language's development. Specific issues were originally discussed in the Roundup bug tracker hosted at by the foundation. [177] In 2022, all issues and discussions were migrated to GitHub ...

  6. Program lifecycle phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_lifecycle_phase

    Load time is when the OS takes the program's executable from storage, such as a hard drive, and places it into active memory, in order to begin execution. Run time is the execution phase, when the central processing unit executes the program's machine code instructions. Programs may run indefinitely.

  7. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    JIT causes a slight to noticeable delay in the initial execution of an application, due to the time taken to load and compile the input code. Sometimes this delay is called "startup time delay" or "warm-up time". In general, the more optimization JIT performs, the better the code it will generate, but the initial delay will also increase.

  8. Execution model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_model

    For example, both a 5 stage in-order pipeline and a large out of order CPU implement the same assembly language execution model. The execution model is the definition of the behavior, so all implementations, whether in-order or out-of-order or interpreted or JIT'd etc.. must all give the exact same result, and that result is defined by the ...

  9. Test-driven development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development

    Test-driven development (TDD) is a way of writing code that involves writing an automated unit-level test case that fails, then writing just enough code to make the test pass, then refactoring both the test code and the production code, then repeating with another new test case.
