  2. Sleep (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_(system_call)

    An uninterruptible sleep state is a sleep state that will not handle a signal right away. It will wake only as a result of a waited-upon resource becoming available or after a time-out occurs during that wait (if specified when put to sleep). It is mostly used by device drivers waiting for disk or network IO (input/output).

  3. Recurrence period density entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_period_density...

    Recurrence period density entropy is useful for characterising the extent to which a time series repeats the same sequence, and is therefore similar to linear autocorrelation and time delayed mutual information, except that it measures repetitiveness in the phase space of the system, and is thus a more reliable measure based upon the dynamics of the underlying system that generated the signal.

  4. Exponential backoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff

    The time delay is usually measured in slots, which are fixed-length periods (or slices) of time on the network. In a binary exponential backoff algorithm (i.e. one where b = 2 ), after c collisions, each retransmission is delayed by a random number of slot times between 0 and 2 c − 1 .

  5. Time delay neural network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_delay_neural_network

    The precise architecture of TDNNs (time-delays, number of layers) is mostly determined by the designer depending on the classification problem and the most useful context sizes. The delays or context windows are chosen specific to each application. Work has also been done to create adaptable time-delay TDNNs [10] where this manual tuning is ...

  6. Spinlock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinlock

    With large numbers of processors, adding a random exponential backoff delay before re-checking the lock performs even better than TTAS. [4] [5] A few multi-core processors have a "power-conscious spin-lock" instruction that puts a processor to sleep, then wakes it up on the next cycle after the lock is freed.

  7. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Python added support for async/await with version 3.5 in 2015 [9] adding 2 new keywords, async and await. TypeScript added support for async/await with version 1.7 in 2015. [10] JavaScript added support for async/await in 2017 as part of ECMAScript 2017 JavaScript edition.

  8. Group delay and phase delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_delay_and_phase_delay

    The group delay and phase delay properties of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system are functions of frequency, giving the time from when a frequency component of a time varying physical quantity—for example a voltage signal—appears at the LTI system input, to the time when a copy of that same frequency component—perhaps of a different physical phenomenon—appears at the LTI system output.

  9. Delay differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay_differential_equation

    DDEs are also called time-delay systems, systems with aftereffect or dead-time, hereditary systems, equations with deviating argument, or differential-difference equations. They belong to the class of systems with the functional state , i.e. partial differential equations (PDEs) which are infinite dimensional, as opposed to ordinary ...
