  2. Automatic and controlled processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_and_controlled...

    Automatic and controlled processes (ACP) are the two categories of cognitive processing.All cognitive processes fall into one or both of those two categories. The amounts of "processing power", attention, and effort a process requires is the primary factor used to determine whether it's a controlled or an automatic process.

  3. Straight-through processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-through_processing

    Straight-through processing exists in numerous areas of financial services, such as payments processing. [2] [3] [4]Payments may be non-STP due to various reasons [5] such as missing information, information which is not in a machine "understandable" form (such as name and address rather than a code), or human-readable instructions, e.g.

  4. Two-phase commit protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_commit_protocol

    In transaction processing, databases, and computer networking, the two-phase commit protocol (2PC, tupac) is a type of atomic commitment protocol (ACP). It is a distributed algorithm that coordinates all the processes that participate in a distributed atomic transaction on whether to commit or abort (roll back) the transaction.

    In telecommunication networks, the transmission time is the amount of time from the beginning until the end of a message transmission. In the case of a digital message, it is the time from the first bit until the last bit of a message has left the transmitting node.

  7. Automation bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automation_bias

    Automation use and disuse can also influence stages of information processing: information acquisition, information analysis, decision making and action selection, and action implementation. [10] For example, information acquisition, the first step in information processing, is the process by which a user registers input via the senses. [10]

  8. Computer multitasking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_multitasking

    New tasks can interrupt already started ones before they finish, instead of waiting for them to end. As a result, a computer executes segments of multiple tasks in an interleaved manner, while the tasks share common processing resources such as central processing units (CPUs) and main memory. Multitasking automatically interrupts the running ...

  9. Automatic switching system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_switching_system

    In data communications, an automatic switching system is a switching system in which all the operations required to execute the three phases of Information transfer transactions are automatically executed in response to signals from a user end-instrument.
