  2. PHP syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP_syntax_and_semantics

    PHP has hundreds of base functions and thousands more from extensions. Prior to PHP version 5.3.0, functions are not first-class functions and can only be referenced by their name, whereas PHP 5.3.0 introduces closures. [35] User-defined functions can be created at any time and without being prototyped. [35]

  3. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff

    For example, if the ceiling is set at i = 10 in a truncated binary exponential backoff algorithm, (as it is in the IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD standard [14]), then the maximum delay is 1023 slot times, i.e. 2 10 − 1. Selecting an appropriate backoff limit for a system involves striking a balance between collision probability and latency.

  4. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In programming language theory, lazy evaluation, or call-by-need, [1] is an evaluation strategy which delays the evaluation of an expression until its value is needed (non-strict evaluation) and which avoids repeated evaluations (by the use of sharing).

  5. RedBeanPHP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RedBeanPHP

    RedBeanPHP is an independent, free, BSD licensed, open-source object–relational mapping (ORM) software written by Gabor de Mooij.It is a stand-alone library, not part of any framework.

  6. Transmission time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_time

    The propagation delay of a physical link can be calculated by dividing the distance (the length of the medium) in meter by its propagation speed in m/s. Propagation time = Distance / propagation speed. Example: Ethernet communication over a UTP copper cable with maximum distance of 100 meter between computer and switching node results in:

  7. Bandwidth-delay product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth-delay_product

    In data communications, the bandwidth-delay product is the product of a data link's capacity (in bits per second) and its round-trip delay time (in seconds). [1] The result, an amount of data measured in bits (or bytes), is equivalent to the maximum amount of data on the network circuit at any given time, i.e., data that has been transmitted but not yet acknowledged.

  8. 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 ...

  9. TCP delayed acknowledgment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_delayed_acknowledgment

    If the application is transmitting data in smaller chunks and expecting periodic acknowledgment replies, this negative interaction can occur. To prevent this delay, the application layer needs to continuously send data without waiting for acknowledgment replies. Alternatively, Nagle's algorithm may be disabled by the application on the sending ...
