  2. Loop unrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_unrolling

    Loop unrolling, also known as loop unwinding, is a loop transformation technique that attempts to optimize a program's execution speed at the expense of its binary size, which is an approach known as space–time tradeoff.

  3. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    In computer programming, an infinite loop (or endless loop) [1] [2] is a sequence of instructions that, as written, will continue endlessly, unless an external intervention occurs, such as turning off power via a switch or pulling a plug.

  4. Race condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_condition

    When the input value A changes from low to high, the circuit outputs a short spike of duration (∆t 1 + ∆t 2) − ∆t 2 = ∆t 1. A race condition or race hazard is the condition of an electronics , software , or other system where the system's substantive behavior is dependent on the sequence or timing of other uncontrollable events ...

  5. Switch statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement

    Switch expressions are introduced in Java SE 12, 19 March 2019, as a preview feature. Here a whole switch expression can be used to return a value. There is also a new form of case label, case L-> where the right-hand-side is a single expression. This also prevents fall through and requires that cases are exhaustive.

  6. Branch predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_predictor

    A 1-bit saturating counter (essentially a flip-flop) records the last outcome of the branch. This is the most simple version of dynamic branch predictor possible, although it is not very accurate. A 2-bit saturating counter [1] is a state machine with four states: Figure 2: State diagram of 2-bit saturating counter. Strongly not taken; Weakly ...

  7. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Sometimes within the body of a loop there is a desire to skip the remainder of the loop body and continue with the next iteration of the loop. Some languages provide a statement such as continue (most languages), skip, [8] cycle (Fortran), or next (Perl and Ruby), which will do this. The effect is to prematurely terminate the innermost loop ...

  8. Circuit satisfiability problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_satisfiability_problem

    The circuit on the left is satisfiable but the circuit on the right is not. In theoretical computer science, the circuit satisfiability problem (also known as CIRCUIT-SAT, CircuitSAT, CSAT, etc.) is the decision problem of determining whether a given Boolean circuit has an assignment of its inputs that makes the output true. [1]

  9. Characteristic impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_impedance

    The input impedance of an infinite line is equal to the characteristic impedance since the transmitted wave is never reflected back from the end. Equivalently: The characteristic impedance of a line is that impedance which, when terminating an arbitrary length of line at its output, produces an input impedance of equal value. This is so because ...
