  3. Optimistic concurrency control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimistic_concurrency_control

    However, if contention for data resources is frequent, the cost of repeatedly restarting transactions hurts performance significantly, in which case other concurrency control methods may be better suited. However, locking-based ("pessimistic") methods also can deliver poor performance because locking can drastically limit effective concurrency ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    For data requests that fall between the table's samples, an interpolation algorithm can generate reasonable approximations by averaging nearby samples." [8] In data analysis applications, such as image processing, a lookup table (LUT) can be used to transform the input data into a more desirable output format. For example, a grayscale picture ...

  6. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    High table loading factors, pathological key sets, and poorly designed hash functions can result in access times approaching linear in the number of items in the table. Hash functions can be designed to give the best worst-case performance, [Notes 1] good performance under high table loading factors, and in special cases, perfect (collisionless ...

  7. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of buckets or slots, from which the desired value can be found. During lookup, the key is hashed and the resulting hash indicates where the corresponding value is stored. A map implemented by a hash table is called a hash map.
