  2. Fly-in fly-out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly-in_fly-out

    The use of FIFO is a response to the precarity of resource extraction sectors: the workers can be shipped in quickly during resource booms and sent away during busts. [4] Usually, a fly-in fly-out job involves working a long shift (e.g., 12 hours each day) for a number of continuous days with all days off spent at home rather than at the work site.

  3. FIFO (computing and electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFO_(computing_and...

    Representation of a FIFO queue. In computing and in systems theory, first in, first out (the first in is the first out), acronymized as FIFO, is a method for organizing the manipulation of a data structure (often, specifically a data buffer) where the oldest (first) entry, or "head" of the queue, is processed first.

  4. Backup rotation scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backup_rotation_scheme

    A backup rotation scheme is a system of backing up data to computer media (such as tapes) that minimizes, by re-use, the number of media used.The scheme determines how and when each piece of removable storage is used for a backup job and how long it is retained once it has backup data stored on it.

  5. Queue (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(abstract_data_type)

    The operations of a queue make it a first-in-first-out (FIFO) data structure. In a FIFO data structure, the first element added to the queue will be the first one to be removed. This is equivalent to the requirement that once a new element is added, all elements that were added before have to be removed before the new element can be removed.

  6. Mealy machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mealy_machine

    State diagram for a simple Mealy machine with one input and one output. (For every input value outputs 1 if the current input value is different from the previous or 0 otherwise.) A simple Mealy machine has one input and one output. Each transition edge is labeled with the value of the input (shown in red) and the value of the output (shown in ...

  7. FIFO - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFO

    FIFO in stock rotation, particularly to avoid food spoilage; FIFO (computing and electronics), a method of queuing or memory management Queue (abstract data type), data abstraction of the queuing concept; FIFO and LIFO accounting, methods used in managing inventory and financial matters

  8. Cache replacement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies

    S3-FIFO demonstrates that FIFO queues are sufficient to design efficient and scalable eviction algorithms. Compared to LRU and LRU-based algorithms, S3-FIFO can achieve 6x higher throughput. Besides, on web cache workloads, S3-FIFO achieves the lowest miss ratio among 11 state-of-the-art algorithms the authors compared with. [19]

  9. Inventory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inventory

    FIFO and LIFO. Queueing theory. [19] Inventory Turn is a financial accounting tool for evaluating inventory and it is not necessarily a management tool. Inventory management should be forward looking. The methodology applied is based on historical cost of goods sold.
