  2. Non-blocking algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-blocking_algorithm

    Wait-freedom is the strongest non-blocking guarantee of progress, combining guaranteed system-wide throughput with starvation-freedom. An algorithm is wait-free if every operation has a bound on the number of steps the algorithm will take before the operation completes. [15]

  3. Blocking (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_(computing)

    An example is "blocking on a channel" where passively waiting for the other part (i.e. no polling or spin loop) is part of the semantics of channels. [3] Correctly engineered, any of these may be used to implement reactive systems. [clarification needed] Deadlock means that processes pathologically wait for each other in a circle. As such it is ...

  4. Wait-for graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait-For_Graph

    A wait-for graph in computer science is a directed graph used for deadlock detection in operating systems and relational database systems.. In computer science, a system that allows concurrent operation of multiple processes and locking of resources and which does not provide mechanisms to avoid or prevent deadlock must support a mechanism to detect deadlocks and an algorithm for recovering ...

  5. Non-blocking I/O (Java) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-blocking_I/O_(Java)

    The reset() method causes the position pointer to move to the mark pointer's position. Upon invocation of the clear() method or the flip() method the mark pointer is discarded. The clear() method does not ensure zero-ing of the buffer, but does return the limit pointer to the upper boundary of the underlying array, and the position pointer to zero.

  6. These Are the Easiest Ways to Open a Jar When It's Stuck - AOL

    Place the jar on the counter and try easing the tip of a butter knife between the jar and the lid. This will create a wedge to help pop the seal. Once it's in there, give the lid a twist to help ...

  7. JAR (file format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAR_(file_format)

    A JAR file allows Java runtimes to efficiently deploy an entire application, including its classes and their associated resources, in a single request. JAR file elements may be compressed, shortening download times. A JAR file may contain a manifest file, that is located at META-INF/MANIFEST.MF. The entries in the manifest file describe how to ...

  8. Blocking (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_(statistics)

    No blocking (left) vs blocking (right) experimental design. When studying probability theory the blocks method consists of splitting a sample into blocks (groups) separated by smaller subblocks so that the blocks can be considered almost independent. [5] The blocks method helps proving limit theorems in the case of dependent random variables.

  9. Block by Block (program) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_by_Block_(program)

    Block by Block is based on an earlier initiative started in October 2011, Mina Kvarter (My Block), which gave young people in Swedish communities a tool to visualize how they wanted to change their part of town. According to Manneh, the project was a helpful way to visualize urban planning ideas without necessarily having a training in ...
