  2. Delta timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_timing

    Delta time or delta timing is a concept used amongst programmers in relation to hardware and network responsiveness. [1] In graphics programming, the term is usually used for variably updating scenery based on the elapsed time since the game last updated, [2] (i.e. the previous "frame") which will vary depending on the speed of the computer, and how much work needs to be done in the program at ...

  3. Time Warp Edit Distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Warp_Edit_Distance

    In the data analysis of time series, Time Warp Edit Distance (TWED) is a measure of similarity (or dissimilarity) between pairs of discrete time series, controlling the relative distortion of the time units of the two series using the physical notion of elasticity.

    apply(func, list) — Perl: map block list map expr, list: In block or expr special variable $_ holds each value from list in turn. Helper List::MoreUtils::each_array combines more than one list until the longest one is exhausted, filling the others with undef.

  5. Longest-processing-time-first scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest-processing-time...

    The running time of LPT is dominated by the sorting, which takes O(n log n) time, where n is the number of inputs. LPT is monotone in the sense that, if one of the input numbers increases, the objective function (the largest sum or the smallest sum of a subset in the output) weakly increases. [2] This is in contrast to Multifit algorithm.

  6. Equation of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_time

    Animation showing equation of time and analemma path over one year.. The United States Naval Observatory states "the Equation of Time is the difference apparent solar time minus mean solar time", i.e. if the sun is ahead of the clock the sign is positive, and if the clock is ahead of the sun the sign is negative.

  7. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer science, a generator is a routine that can be used to control the iteration behaviour of a loop.All generators are also iterators. [1] A generator is very similar to a function that returns an array, in that a generator has parameters, can be called, and generates a sequence of values.

  8. Mean time between failures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_time_between_failures

    Mean time between failures (MTBF) describes the expected time between two failures for a repairable system. For example, three identical systems starting to function properly at time 0 are working until all of them fail. The first system fails after 100 hours, the second after 120 hours and the third after 130 hours.

  9. Clock angle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_angle_problem

    The time is usually based on a 12-hour clock. A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees per minute. The hour hand of a normal 12-hour analogue clock turns 360° in 12 hours (720 minutes) or 0.5° per minute. The minute hand rotates through 360° in 60 minutes or 6° per minute. [1]
