  2. Booting process of Linux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Linux

    For example in a system with an i.MX7D processor and a bootable device which stores the OS (including U-Boot), the on-chip boot ROM sets up the DDR memory controller at first which allows the boot ROM's program to obtain the SoC configuration data from the external bootloader on the bootable device.

    For example, Das U-Boot may be split into two stages: the platform would load a small SPL (Secondary Program Loader), which is a stripped-down version of U-Boot, and the SPL would do some initial hardware configuration (e.g. DRAM initialization using CPU cache as RAM) and load the larger, fully featured version of U-Boot.

  4. Continuous integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_integration

    The earliest known work (1989) on continuous integration was the Infuse environment developed by G. E. Kaiser, D. E. Perry, and W. M. Schell. [4]In 1994, Grady Booch used the phrase continuous integration in Object-Oriented Analysis and Design with Applications (2nd edition) [5] to explain how, when developing using micro processes, "internal releases represent a sort of continuous integration ...

  5. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    The following C code examples illustrate two threads that share a global integer i. The first thread uses busy-waiting to check for a change in the value of i : #include <pthread.h> #include <stdatomic.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> /* i is global, so it is visible to all functions.

  6. Bootstrapping (compilers) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(compilers)

    Bootstrapping a compiler has the following advantages: [6] It is a non-trivial test of the language being compiled, and as such is a form of dogfooding.; Compiler developers and bug reporters only need to know the language being compiled.

  7. Darwin (operating system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin_(operating_system)

    The Darwine project was a port of Wine that allows one to run Microsoft Windows software on Darwin. SEDarwin was a port of TrustedBSD mandatory access control framework and portions of the SELinux framework to Darwin. [46] It was incorporated into Mac OS X 10.5. [47] The Darbat project was an experimental port of Darwin to the L4 microkernel ...

  8. Program lifecycle phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_lifecycle_phase

    For example, when modifying a program, software developers may need to repeatedly edit, compile, install, and execute it on their own computers to ensure sufficient quality before it can be distributed to users; copies of the modified program are then downloaded, installed, and executed by users on their computers.

  9. Instruction pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_pipelining

    In computer engineering, instruction pipelining is a technique for implementing instruction-level parallelism within a single processor. Pipelining attempts to keep every part of the processor busy with some instruction by dividing incoming instructions into a series of sequential steps (the eponymous "pipeline") performed by different processor units with different parts of instructions ...
