  2. Tube bending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_bending

    Tube bending is any metal forming processes used to permanently form pipes or tubing. Tube bending may be form-bound or use freeform-bending procedures, and it may use heat supported or cold forming procedures. Form bound bending procedures like “press bending” or “rotary draw bending” are used to form the work piece into the shape of a ...

  3. Base and bounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_and_bounds

    In its simplest form each user process is assigned a single contiguous segment of main memory. The operating system loads the physical address of this segment into a base register and its size into a bound register. Virtual addresses seen by the program are added to the contents of the base register to generate the physical address. The address ...

  4. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    The process state is changed back to "waiting" when the process no longer needs to wait (in a blocked state). Once the process finishes execution, or is terminated by the operating system, it is no longer needed. The process is removed instantly or is moved to the "terminated" state. When removed, it just waits to be removed from main memory ...

    Form The form of a commodity is defined by its configuration (including the geometrically measured configuration), material, and material properties that uniquely ...

  6. Bending (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_(metalworking)

    Bending A chimney starter, a sample product of bending. Bending is a manufacturing process that produces a V-shape, U-shape, or channel shape along a straight axis in ductile materials, most commonly sheet metal. [1] Commonly used equipment include box and pan brakes, brake presses, and other specialized machine presses.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_operating...

    The implementation of threads and processes differs from one operating system to another, but in most cases, a thread is contained inside a process. templating : In an o/s context, templating refers to creating a single virtual machine image as a guest operating system, then saving it as a tool for multiple running virtual machines (Gagne, 2012 ...

  8. Safety and liveness properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_and_liveness_properties

    Producing an answer within a specified real-time bound is a safety property rather than a liveness property. This is because a discrete bad thing is being proscribed: a partial execution that reaches a state where the answer still has not been produced and the value of the clock (a state variable) violates the bound.

    A "complete" computer including the hardware, the operating system (main software), and peripheral equipment required and used for "full" operation can be referred to as a computer system. This term may as well be used for a group of computers that are connected and work together, in particular a computer network or computer cluster .
