  2. Timeout (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeout_(computing)

    In the Microsoft Windows and ReactOS [2] command-line interfaces, the timeout command pauses the command processor for the specified number of seconds. [3] [4] In POP connections, the server will usually close a client connection after a certain period of inactivity (the timeout period). This ensures that connections do not persist forever, if ...

  3. Very long instruction word - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_long_instruction_word

    Very long instruction word (VLIW) refers to instruction set architectures that are designed to exploit instruction-level parallelism (ILP). A VLIW processor allows programs to explicitly specify instructions to execute in parallel, whereas conventional central processing units (CPUs) mostly allow programs to specify instructions to execute in sequence only.

  4. Timeout Detection and Recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeout_Detection_and_Recovery

    Timeout Detection and Recovery or TDR is a feature of the Windows operating system (OS) introduced in Windows Vista. It detects response problems from a graphics card (GPU), and if a timeout occurs, the OS will attempt a card reset to recover a functional and responsive desktop environment .

    Top level Configuration Management Activity model. Configuration management (CM) is a management process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life.

  6. Preboot Execution Environment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preboot_Execution_Environment

    The Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) was introduced as part of the Wired for Management [2] framework by Intel and is described in the specification published by Intel and SystemSoft. PXE version 2.0 was released in December 1998, and the update 2.1 was made public in September 1999. [ 3 ]

  7. CPU time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_time

    The Unix command time prints CPU time and elapsed real time for the execution of a Unix command (or pipeline). Note that many command-line shells have their own implementation of this command. To run the Unix program time , we provide its full path, /usr/bin/time :

  8. Scheduling (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(computing)

    The scheduler is an operating system module that selects the next jobs to be admitted into the system and the next process to run. Operating systems may feature up to three distinct scheduler types: a long-term scheduler (also known as an admission scheduler or high-level scheduler), a mid-term or medium-term scheduler, and a short-term scheduler.

  9. Transient execution CPU vulnerability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient_execution_CPU...

    Transient execution CPU vulnerabilities are vulnerabilities in which instructions, most often optimized using speculative execution, are executed temporarily by a microprocessor, without committing their results due to a misprediction or error, resulting in leaking secret data to an unauthorized party.
