  2. Async/await - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Async/await

    Supporters claim that asynchronous, non-blocking code can be written with async/await that looks almost like traditional synchronous, blocking code. In particular, it has been argued that await is the best way of writing asynchronous code in message-passing programs; in particular, being close to blocking code, readability and the minimal ...

  3. Busy waiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busy_waiting

    In computer science and software engineering, busy-waiting, busy-looping or spinning is a technique in which a process repeatedly checks to see if a condition is true, such as whether keyboard input or a lock is available. Spinning can also be used to generate an arbitrary time delay, a technique that was necessary on systems that lacked a ...

  4. Earliest deadline first scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earliest_deadline_first...

    For example, when using Linux as host OS and KVM as hypervisor, IRMOS can be used to provide scheduling guarantees to individual VMs and at the same time isolate their performance so as to avoid undesired temporal interferences. IRMOS features a combined EDF/FP hierarchical scheduler. At the outer level there is a partitioned EDF scheduler on ...

  5. Spurious wakeup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spurious_wakeup

    When several threads are waiting on a single condition variable, the system may decide to wake all threads up when it's signaled. The system treats every signal( ) to wake one thread as a broadcast( ) to wake all of them, thus breaking any possibly expected 1:1 relationship between signals and wakeup. [ 1 ]

  6. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    first checks whether x is less than 5, which it is, so then the {loop body} is entered, where the printf function is run and x is incremented by 1. After completing all the statements in the loop body, the condition, (x < 5), is checked again, and the loop is executed again, this process repeating until the variable x has the value 5.

  8. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    As an example of the first possibility, in C++11, a thread that needs the value of a future can block until it is available by calling the wait() or get() member functions. A timeout can also be specified on the wait using the wait_for() or wait_until() member functions to avoid indefinite blocking.

  9. Wrapper function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrapper_function

    A test driver is a kind of wrapper function that exercises a code module, typically calling it repeatedly, with different settings or parameters, in order to rigorously pursue each possible path. It is not deliverable code, but it is not throwaway code either, being typically retained for use in regression testing. An interface adaptor is a ...
