Read-copy-update. In computer science, read-copy-update ( RCU) is a synchronization mechanism that avoids the use of lock primitives while multiple threads concurrently read and update elements that are linked through pointers and that belong to shared data structures (e.g., linked lists, trees, hash tables ).

Readers–writer lock. In computer science, a readers–writer ( single-writer lock, [ 1] a multi-reader lock, [ 2] a push lock, [ 3] or an MRSW lock) is a synchronization primitive that solves one of the readers–writers problems. An RW lock allows concurrent access for read-only operations, whereas write operations require exclusive access.
The cursor for the Windows Command Prompt (appearing as an underscore at the end of the line). In most command-line interfaces or text editors, the text cursor, also known as a caret, [4] is an underscore, a solid rectangle, or a vertical line, which may be flashing or steady, indicating where text will be placed when entered (the insertion point).
Mount Rainier can be used only with drives that explicitly support it (a part of SCSI/MMC and can work over ATAPI), but works with standard CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+/-R and DVD+/-RW media. The physical format of MRW on the disk is managed by the drive's firmware , which remaps physical drive blocks into a virtual, defect-free space.
The game has been praised for its novel design. It was included in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die, though the book described it as "more a proof of concept than the finished work". [3] Writing for Rock Paper Shotgun, John Walker praised the game's one-player co-op design, calling it "The best possible form of co-op". [7]
