  2. Self-modifying code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-modifying_code

    Self-modifying code conflicts with authentication of the code and may require exceptions to policies requiring that all code running on a system be signed. Modified code must be stored separately from its original form, conflicting with memory management solutions that normally discard the code in RAM and reload it from the executable file as ...

  3. MEX file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEX_file

    A MEX file is a type of computer file that provides an interface between MATLAB or Octave and functions written in C, C++ or Fortran.It stands for "MATLAB executable". When compiled, MEX files are dynamically loaded and allow external functions to be invoked from within MATLAB or Octave as if they were built-in functions.

  4. Data compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    Data compression aims to reduce the size of data files, enhancing storage efficiency and speeding up data transmission. K-means clustering, an unsupervised machine learning algorithm, is employed to partition a dataset into a specified number of clusters, k, each represented by the centroid of its points. This process condenses extensive ...

  5. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    The earliest published JIT compiler is generally attributed to work on LISP by John McCarthy in 1960. [4] In his seminal paper Recursive functions of symbolic expressions and their computation by machine, Part I, he mentions functions that are translated during runtime, thereby sparing the need to save the compiler output to punch cards [5] (although this would be more accurately known as a ...

  6. Comparison of executable file formats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_executable...

    In addition to the binary application code, the executables may contain headers and tables with relocation and fixup information as well as various kinds of meta data. Among those formats listed, the ones in most common use are PE (on Microsoft Windows ), ELF (on Linux and most other versions of Unix ), Mach-O (on macOS and iOS ) and MZ (on DOS ).

  7. format (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_(command)

    With this option, Format writes bootstrap code to the first sector of the volume (and possibly elsewhere as well). Format always writes a BIOS Parameter Block to the first sector, with or without the /S option. Another option (/Q) allows for what Microsoft calls "Quick Format". With this option the command will not perform steps 2 and 3 above.

  8. Mach-O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach-O

    A segment value of 3 would mean the offset to the data of the fourth segment load command in the Mach-O file starting from zero up (0,1,2,3 = 4th segment). Sections are also numbered from sections 1 and up. Section value zero is used in the symbol table for symbols that are not defined in any section (undefined).

  9. Mass spectrometry data format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_spectrometry_data_format

    This format was one of the earliest attempts to supply a standardized file format for data exchange in mass spectrometry. JCAMP-DX was initially developed for infrared spectrometry. JCAMP-DX is an ASCII based format and therefore not very compact even though it includes standards for file compression.
