  2. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In Python 3.x the range() function [28] returns a generator which computes elements of the list on demand. Elements are only generated when they are needed (e.g., when print(r[3]) is evaluated in the following example), so this is an example of lazy or deferred evaluation:

  3. Karplus–Strong string synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karplus–Strong_string...

    The most elementary fractional delay is the linear interpolation between two samples (e.g., s(4.2) = 0.8s(4) + 0.2s(5)). If the phase delay varies with frequency, harmonics may be sharpened or flattened relative to the fundamental frequency. The original algorithm used equal weighting on two adjacent samples, as this can be achieved without ...

  4. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    Inserting an item with key k appends the item to the k 'th list, and updates top ← min(top, k), both in constant time. Extract-min deletes and returns one item from the list with index top, then increments top if needed until it again points to a non-empty list; this takes O(C) time in the worst case. These queues are useful for sorting the ...

  5. Smith predictor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_predictor

    However, this loop alone would not provide satisfactory control, because of the delay; this loop is feeding back outdated information. Intuitively, for the k sample intervals during which no fresh information is available, the system is controlled by the inner loop which contains a predictor of what the (unobservable) output of the plant G ...

  6. Elmore delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmore_delay

    Elmore delay [1] is a simple approximation to the delay through an RC network in an electronic system. It is often used in applications such as logic synthesis, delay calculation, static timing analysis, placement and routing, since it is simple to compute (especially in tree structured networks, which are the vast majority of signal nets within ICs) and is reasonably accurate.

  7. Discrete-event simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete-event_simulation

    The three phase approach is a refinement of the event-based approach in which simultaneous events are ordered so as to make the most efficient use of computer resources. The three-phase approach is used by a number of commercial simulation software packages, but from the user's point of view, the specifics of the underlying simulation method ...

  8. Moral Injury: The Grunts - The Huffington Post

    Some troops leave the battlefield injured. Others return from war with mental wounds. Yet many of the 2 million Iraq and Afghanistan veterans suffer from a condition the Defense Department refuses to acknowledge: Moral injury.

  9. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

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

    [18] [19] [20] To reduce that overhead, many modern compilers try to delay the use of a call stack until it is really needed. [ citation needed ] For example, the call of a procedure P may store the return address and parameters of the called procedure in certain processor registers, and transfer control to the procedure's body by a simple jump.
