Spark Core is the foundation of the overall project. It provides distributed task dispatching, scheduling, and basic I/O functionalities, exposed through an application programming interface (for Java, Python, Scala, .NET [16] and R) centered on the RDD abstraction (the Java API is available for other JVM languages, but is also usable for some other non-JVM languages that can connect to the ...
In computing, timestamping refers to the use of an electronic timestamp to provide a temporal order among a set of events. Timestamping techniques are used in a variety of computing fields, from network management and computer security to concurrency control .
The C date and time functions are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing date and time manipulation operations. [1] They provide support for time acquisition, conversion between date formats, and formatted output to strings.
Some file archivers and some version control software, when they copy a file from some remote computer to the local computer, adjust the timestamps of the local file to show the date/time in the past when that file was created or modified on that remote computer, rather than the date/time when that file was copied to the local computer.
In this case, if the transaction's timestamp is after the object's read timestamp, the read timestamp is set to the transaction's timestamp. If a transaction wants to write to an object, but the transaction started before the object's read timestamp it means that something has had a look at the object, and we assume it took a copy of the object ...
Unix time [a] is a date and time representation widely used in computing. It measures time by the number of non-leap seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970, the Unix epoch. For example, at midnight on 1 January 2010, Unix time was 1262304000. Unix time originated as the system time of Unix operating systems.
In parallel computing, granularity (or grain size) of a task is a measure of the amount of work (or computation) which is performed by that task. [1]Another definition of granularity takes into account the communication overhead between multiple processors or processing elements.
A vector clock is a data structure used for determining the partial ordering of events in a distributed system and detecting causality violations. Just as in Lamport timestamps, inter-process messages contain the state of the sending process's logical clock.
