  2. Ten Commandments of Computer Ethics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Commandments_of...

    The Ten Commandments of Computer Ethics were created in 1992 by the Washington, D.C.–based Computer Ethics Institute. [1] The commandments were introduced in the paper "In Pursuit of a 'Ten Commandments' for Computer Ethics" by Ramon C. Barquin as a means to create "a set of standards to guide and instruct people in the ethical use of computers."

  3. Non-interference (security) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-interference_(security)

    This is a very strict policy, in that a computer system with covert channels may comply with, say, the Bell–LaPadula model, but will not comply with noninterference.The reverse could be true (under reasonable conditions, being that the system should have labelled files, etc.) except for the "No classified information at startup" exceptions noted below.

  4. Unconventional warfare - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_warfare

    Aside from the earlier definition of warfare that is not conventional, unconventional warfare has also been described as: There is another type of warfare— new in its intensity, ancient in its origin—war by guerrillas, subversives, insurgents, assassins; war by ambush instead of by combat, by infiltration instead of aggression, seeking victory by eroding and exhausting the enemy instead of ...

  5. Node (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(networking)

    In telecommunications networks, a node (Latin: nodus, ‘knot’) is either a redistribution point or a communication endpoint.. A physical network node is an electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of creating, receiving, or transmitting information over a communication channel. [1]

  6. Computer security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_security

    An example of a physical security measure: a metal lock on the back of a personal computer to prevent hardware tampering. Computer security (also cybersecurity, digital security, or information technology (IT) security) is the protection of computer software, systems and networks from threats that can lead to unauthorized information disclosure, theft or damage to hardware, software, or data ...

  7. Embarrassingly parallel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embarrassingly_parallel

    "Embarrassingly" is used here to refer to parallelization problems which are "embarrassingly easy". [4] The term may imply embarrassment on the part of developers or compilers: "Because so many important problems remain unsolved mainly due to their intrinsic computational complexity, it would be embarrassing not to develop parallel implementations of polynomial homotopy continuation methods."

  8. Convention (norm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_(norm)

    A convention influences a set of agreed, stipulated, or generally accepted standards, social norms, or other criteria, often taking the form of a custom.. In physical sciences, numerical values (such as constants, quantities, or scales of measurement) are called conventional if they do not represent a measured property of nature, but originate in a convention, for example an average of many ...

  9. Non-volatile memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-volatile_memory

    Due to this crystal structure and how it is influenced, F-RAM offers distinct properties from other nonvolatile memory options, including extremely high, although not infinite, endurance (exceeding 10 16 read/write cycles for 3.3 V devices), ultra-low power consumption (since F-RAM does not require a charge pump like other non-volatile memories ...
