  2. Circular buffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_buffer

    In computer science, a circular buffer, circular queue, cyclic buffer or ring buffer is a data structure that uses a single, fixed-size buffer as if it were connected end-to-end. This structure lends itself easily to buffering data streams. [1] There were early circular buffer implementations in hardware. [2] [3]

  3. Collection (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collection_(abstract_data...

    In computer programming, a collection is an abstract data type that is a grouping of items that can be used in a polymorphic way. Often, the items are of the same data type such as int or string . Sometimes the items derive from a common type; even deriving from the most general type of a programming language such as object or variant .

  4. Non-blocking algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-blocking_algorithm

    a single-reader single-writer ring buffer FIFO, with a size which evenly divides the overflow of one of the available unsigned integer types, can unconditionally be implemented safely using only a memory barrier; Read-copy-update with a single writer and any number of readers. (The readers are wait-free; the writer is usually lock-free, until ...

  5. io_uring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Io_uring

    Computer programming portal; Linux portal; io_uring [a] (previously known as aioring) is a Linux kernel system call interface for storage device asynchronous I/O operations addressing performance issues with similar interfaces provided by functions like read()/write() or aio_read()/aio_write() etc. for operations on data accessed by file descriptors.

  6. Reference counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_counting

    A common modification allows reference counting to be made incremental: instead of destroying an object as soon as its reference count becomes zero, it is added to a list of unreferenced objects, and periodically (or as needed) one or more items from this list are destroyed. Simple reference counts require frequent updates.

  7. Producer–consumer problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Producer–consumer_problem

    In computing, the producer-consumer problem (also known as the bounded-buffer problem) is a family of problems described by Edsger W. Dijkstra since 1965.. Dijkstra found the solution for the producer-consumer problem as he worked as a consultant for the Electrologica X1 and X8 computers: "The first use of producer-consumer was partly software, partly hardware: The component taking care of the ...

  8. Double-ended queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue

    In computer science, a double-ended queue (abbreviated to deque, / d ɛ k / DEK [1]) is an abstract data type that generalizes a queue, for which elements can be added to or removed from either the front (head) or back (tail). [2]

  9. NumPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    NumPy (pronounced / ˈ n ʌ m p aɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [3]
