  2. Lag (video games) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lag_(video_games)

    A less common lag solution is to do nothing on the server and to have each client extrapolate (see above) to cover its latency. [13] This produces incorrect results unless remote players maintain a constant velocity, granting an advantage to those who dodge back and forth or simply start/stop moving.

  3. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.

    In these cases, editors can certainly make use of these tools to improve the performance they can measure. "Don't worry about performance" refers to site-wide performance, where the purpose of the servers is to support the wiki contents, not the other way around. The purpose of the wiki content is to serve the reader; and performance ...

  5. Display lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_lag

    This lag time has been measured as high as 68 ms, [1] or the equivalent of 3-4 frames on a 60 Hz display. Display lag is not to be confused with pixel response time, which is the amount of time it takes for a pixel to change from one brightness value to another. Currently the majority of manufacturers quote the pixel response time, but neglect ...

  6. Mass diffusivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_diffusivity

    The higher the diffusivity (of one substance with respect to another), the faster they diffuse into each other. Typically, a compound's diffusion coefficient is ~10,000× as great in air as in water. Carbon dioxide in air has a diffusion coefficient of 16 mm 2 /s, and in water its diffusion coefficient is 0.0016 mm 2 /s.

  7. M/M/1 queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M/M/1_queue

    A single server serves customers one at a time from the front of the queue, according to a first-come, first-served discipline. When the service is complete the customer leaves the queue and the number of customers in the system reduces by one. The buffer is of infinite size, so there is no limit on the number of customers it can contain.

  8. M/M/c queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M/M/c_queue

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, the M/M/c queue (or Erlang–C model [1]: 495 ) is a multi-server queueing model. [2] In Kendall's notation it describes a system where arrivals form a single queue and are governed by a Poisson process, there are c servers, and job service times are exponentially distributed. [3]
