    Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) is a free and open-source cross-platform data format used to serialize structured data. It is useful in developing programs that communicate with each other over a network or for storing data.

  3. Booting process of Windows - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Windows

    When a user is logging on to Windows, the startup sound is played, the shell (usually EXPLORER.EXE) is loaded from the [boot] section of the SYSTEM.INI file, and startup items are loaded. In all versions of Windows 9x except ME, it is also possible to load Windows by booting to a DOS prompt and typing "win".

  4. gRPC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GRPC

    Use cases range from microservices to the "last mile" of computing (mobile, web, and Internet of Things). gRPC uses HTTP/2 for transport, Protocol Buffers as the interface description language, and provides features such as authentication, bidirectional streaming and flow control, blocking or nonblocking bindings, and cancellation and timeouts ...

    A high-level PXE overview. In computing, the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE; often pronounced as / ˈ p ɪ k s iː / pixie, often called PXE boot (pixie boot), is a specification describing a standardized client–server environment that boots a software assembly, retrieved from a network, on PXE-enabled clients.

  6. Cap'n Proto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cap'n_Proto

    Cap'n Proto protocol is theoretically suitable [9] for very fast inter-process communication (IPC) via immutable shared memory, but as of October 2020 none of the implementations support data passing via shared memory. [10] However, Cap'n Proto is still generally considered faster than Protocol Buffers and similar RPC libraries. [11] [12]

  7. Java Web Start - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Web_Start

    Sun introduced version 1.0 of Web Start in March 2001, [5] while 64-bit Windows support was added only in Java 6 [6] (later than 64-bit Java was first available). Since J2SE 1.4 Web Start comes as a default part of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) called javaws , computer administrators no longer have to install it separately.

  8. Comparison of data-serialization formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_data...

    ^ ASN.1 has X.681 (Information Object System), X.682 (Constraints), and X.683 (Parameterization) that allow for the precise specification of open types where the types of values can be identified by integers, by OIDs, etc. OIDs are a standard format for globally unique identifiers, as well as a standard notation ("absolute reference") for ...

  9. Return-to-libc attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return-to-libc_attack

    A "return-to-libc" attack is a computer security attack usually starting with a buffer overflow in which a subroutine return address on a call stack is replaced by an address of a subroutine that is already present in the process executable memory, bypassing the no-execute bit feature (if present) and ridding the attacker of the need to inject their own code.
