  2. Asynchrony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchrony

    Asynchrony (computer programming), the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow, and ways to deal with such events Async/await; Asynchronous system, a system having no global clock, instead operating under distributed control

  3. Asynchronous communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_communication

    In asynchronous serial communication in the physical protocol layer, the data blocks are code words of a certain word length, for example octets or ASCII characters, delimited by start bits and stop bits. A variable length space can be inserted between the code words. No bit synchronization signal is required.

  4. Asynchrony (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchrony_(computer...

    Asynchrony, in computer programming, refers to the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow and ways to deal with such events. These may be "outside" events such as the arrival of signals, or actions instigated by a program that take place concurrently with program execution, without the program hanging to wait for results. [1]

  5. Synchronicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronicity

    Synchronicity (German: Synchronizität) is a concept introduced by analytical psychiatrist Carl Jung to describe events that coincide in time and appear meaningfully related, yet lack a discoverable causal connection. [1]

  6. Comparison of synchronous and asynchronous signalling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_synchronous...

    Using this method, the receiver detects the 'first' edge transition... (the START bit), waits 'half a bit duration' and then reads the value of the signal. A further delay of one 'whole bit duration' is executed before the next data bit is 'read' - repeating for the length of the whole serial word (typically 7/8-data bits).

    Also simply application or app. Computer software designed to perform a group of coordinated functions, tasks, or activities for the benefit of the user. Common examples of applications include word processors, spreadsheets, accounting applications, web browsers, media players, aeronautical flight simulators, console games, and photo editors. This contrasts with system software, which is ...

  8. The Overdue, Under-Told Story Of The Clitoris

    projects.huffingtonpost.com/projects/cliteracy

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
