51Non-blocking algorithm — In computer science, a non blocking algorithm ensures that threads competing for a shared resource do not have their execution indefinitely postponed by mutual exclusion. A non blocking algorithm is lock free if there is guaranteed system wide… …
52ISO 10303 Application Modules — The STEP Application modules define common building blocks to create modular Application Protocols (AP) within ISO 10303. Higher level modules are built up from lower level modules. The modules on the lowest level are wrappers of concepts,… …
53Arbiter (electronics) — Arbiters are electronic devices that allocate access to shared resources.Asynchronous arbitersAn important form of arbiter is used in asynchronous circuits, to select the order of access to a shared resource among asynchronous requests. Its… …
54Clustered file system — A clustered file system is a file system which is shared by being simultaneously mounted on multiple servers. There are several approaches to clustering, most of which do not employ a clustered file system. While many computer clusters don t use… …
55Thrash (computer science) — In computer science, thrash (verb), is the term used to describe a degenerate situation on a computer where increasing resources are used to do a decreasing amount of work. In this situation the system is said to be thrashing . Usually it refers… …
56Dynamic synchronous Transfer Mode — or DTM for short, is a networking technology, standardized by ETSI. It is designed to provide a guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) for the emerging class of e.g. streaming video services, but can be used for packet based services as well. It ha …
