  2. π-calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Π-calculus

    The π-calculus belongs to the family of process calculi, mathematical formalisms for describing and analyzing properties of concurrent computation.In fact, the π-calculus, like the λ-calculus, is so minimal that it does not contain primitives such as numbers, booleans, data structures, variables, functions, or even the usual control flow statements (such as if-then-else, while).

  3. List of random number generators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_random_number...

    Random number generators are important in many kinds of technical applications, including physics, engineering or mathematical computer studies (e.g., Monte Carlo simulations), cryptography and gambling (on game servers). This list includes many common types, regardless of quality or applicability to a given use case.

  4. Pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_number_generator

    special designs based on mathematical hardness assumptions: examples include the Micali–Schnorr generator, [17] Naor-Reingold pseudorandom function and the Blum Blum Shub algorithm, which provide a strong security proof (such algorithms are rather slow compared to traditional constructions, and impractical for many applications)

  6. Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographically_secure...

    In the asymptotic setting, a family of deterministic polynomial time computable functions : {,} {,} for some polynomial p, is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG, or PRG in some references), if it stretches the length of its input (() > for any k), and if its output is computationally indistinguishable from true randomness, i.e. for any probabilistic polynomial time algorithm A, which ...

  7. Process calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_calculus

    In computer science, the process calculi (or process algebras) are a diverse family of related approaches for formally modelling concurrent systems.Process calculi provide a tool for the high-level description of interactions, communications, and synchronizations between a collection of independent agents or processes.

  8. Communicating sequential processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicating_sequential...

    In computer science, communicating sequential processes (CSP) is a formal language for describing patterns of interaction in concurrent systems. [1] It is a member of the family of mathematical theories of concurrency known as process algebras, or process calculi, based on message passing via channels.

  9. List of algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_algorithms

    An algorithm is fundamentally a set of rules or defined procedures that is typically designed and used to solve a specific problem or a broad set of problems.. Broadly, algorithms define process(es), sets of rules, or methodologies that are to be followed in calculations, data processing, data mining, pattern recognition, automated reasoning or other problem-solving operations.
