  2. 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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Event loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_loop

    In the strictest sense, an event loop is one of the methods for implementing inter-process communication. In fact, message processing exists in many systems, including a kernel-level component of the Mach operating system. The event loop is a specific implementation technique of systems that use message passing.

  5. Forming (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

    Forming processes tend to be categorised by differences in effective stresses. These categories and descriptions are highly simplified, since the stresses operating at a local level in any given process are very complex and may involve many varieties of stresses operating simultaneously, or it may involve stresses which change over the course of the operation.

  6. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    The operating system keeps its processes separate and allocates the resources they need, so that they are less likely to interfere with each other and cause system failures (e.g., deadlock or thrashing). The operating system may also provide mechanisms for inter-process communication to enable processes to interact in safe and predictable ways.

  7. Bending machine (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_machine...

    Universal bending machines consists of a basic machine that can be adjusted with little effort and used for a variety of bends. A simple plug-in system supports quick and easy exchange of tools. The basic machine consists of a CNC-operated side stop, a work bench, and software for programming and operating.

  8. Process management (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    A process is a program in execution, and an integral part of any modern-day operating system (OS). The OS must allocate resources to processes, enable processes to share and exchange information, protect the resources of each process from other processes and enable synchronization among processes.

  9. Operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system

    The operating system provides an interface between an application program and the computer hardware, so that an application program can interact with the hardware only by obeying rules and procedures programmed into the operating system. The operating system is also a set of services which simplify development and execution of application programs.
