  2. Burroughs B6x00-7x00 instruction set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burroughs_B6x00-7x00...

    Tag 7 is the program control word which describes a procedure entry point. When operators hit a PCW, the procedure is entered. The ENTR operator explicitly enters a procedure (non-value-returning routine). Functions (value-returning routines) are implicitly entered by operators such as value call (VALC).

  3. Concurrent Pascal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_Pascal

    Classes and monitors are similar: both package private variables and procedures with public procedures (called procedure entries). A class instance can be used by only one process, whereas a monitor instance may be shared by processes. Monitors provide the only mechanism for interprocess communication in a Concurrent Pascal program.

  4. Entry point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entry_point

    In most of today's popular programming languages and operating systems, a computer program usually only has a single entry point.. In C, C++, D, Zig, Rust and Kotlin programs this is a function named main; in Java it is a static method named main (although the class must be specified at the invocation time), and in C# it is a static method named Main.

  5. Gastric bypass surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastric_bypass_surgery

    This variant is the most commonly employed gastric bypass technique and is by far the most commonly performed bariatric procedure in the United States. The small intestine is divided approximately 45 cm (18 in) below the lower stomach outlet and is re-arranged into a Y-configuration, enabling outflow of food from the small upper stomach pouch ...

  6. Holding (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holding_(aeronautics)

    The proper entry procedure is determined by the angle difference between the direction the aircraft flies to arrive at the beacon and the direction of the inbound leg of the holding pattern. [7] A direct entry is performed just as its name would suggest: the aircraft flies directly to the holding fix, and immediately begins the first turn outbound.

  7. Test-and-set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-and-set

    If at this point, CPU 2 happens to issue a test-and-set instruction for the same memory location, the DPRAM first checks its "internal note", recognizes the situation, and issues a BUSY interrupt, which tells CPU 2 that it must wait and retry. This is an implementation of a busy waiting or spinlock using the interrupt mechanism. Since all this ...

  8. Dandy's point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dandy's_point

    In neurosurgery, Dandy's point is a common entry point for occipital burr hole. Originally described by Walter Dandy in 1918 as a way to perform ventriculography via occipital approach. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is located 2 centimetres (0.79 in) lateral to the midline and 3 centimetres (1.2 in) above the inion .

  9. Counting point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_point

    In logistics, a counting point (CP; also known as a status point, data acquisition point, check point, or control point) is a certain spot designated for planning, controlling, and monitoring material flow items (e.g. single parts, assembly groups, final products, bins, racks, containers, and freight carriers).
