  2. Wide and narrow data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_and_narrow_data

    The pandas package in Python implements this operation as "melt" function which converts a wide table to a narrow one. The process of converting a narrow table to wide table is generally referred to as "pivoting" in the context of data transformations.

  3. Schema crosswalk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_crosswalk

    A schema crosswalk is a table that shows equivalent elements (or "fields") in more than one database schema.It maps the elements in one schema to the equivalent elements in another.

  4. Data dictionary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dictionary

    The terms data dictionary and data repository indicate a more general software utility than a catalogue. A catalogue is closely coupled with the DBMS software. It provides the information stored in it to the user and the DBA, but it is mainly accessed by the various software modules of the DBMS itself, such as DDL and DML compilers, the query optimiser, the transaction processor, report ...

  5. 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.

  8. Image scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_scaling

    In the case of decreasing the pixel number (scaling down), this usually results in a visible quality loss. From the standpoint of digital signal processing, the scaling of raster graphics is a two-dimensional example of sample-rate conversion, the conversion of a discrete signal from a sampling rate (in this case, the local sampling rate) to ...

  9. Material selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_selection

    Material selection is often benefited by the use of material index or performance index relevant to the desired material properties. [2] For example, a thermal blanket must have poor thermal conductivity in order to minimize heat transfer for a given temperature difference. It is essential that a designer should have a thorough knowledge of the ...
