    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don't_repeat_yourself

    Don't repeat yourself" (DRY), also known as "duplication is evil", is a principle of software development aimed at reducing repetition of information which is likely to change, replacing it with abstractions that are less likely to change, or using data normalization which avoids redundancy in the first place.

  3. Redundant code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundant_code

    code which is executed but has no external effect (e.g., does not change the output produced by a program; known as dead code). A NOP instruction might be considered to be redundant code that has been explicitly inserted to pad out the instruction stream or introduce a time delay, for example to create a timing loop by "wasting time".

  4. Database normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization

    Database normalization is the process of structuring a relational database accordance with a series of so-called normal forms in order to reduce data redundancy and improve data integrity. It was first proposed by British computer scientist Edgar F. Codd as part of his relational model .

    An example of incremental redundancy HARQ is HSDPA: the data block is first coded with a punctured 1/3 Turbo code, then during each (re)transmission the coded block is usually punctured further (i.e. only a fraction of the coded bits are chosen) and sent. The puncturing pattern used during each (re)transmission is different, so different coded ...

  6. Data redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_redundancy

    [1] [2] Data redundancy can also be used as a measure against silent data corruption; for example, file systems such as Btrfs and ZFS use data and metadata checksumming in combination with copies of stored data to detect silent data corruption and repair its effects. [3]

    Preprocessor – Program that processes input for another program; Scaffold (programming) – Code generation technique or a project generation technique; Snippet (programming) – Small region of re-usable source code, machine code, or text; Template processor – Software designed to combine templates with a data model to produce result documents

  9. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    The code-rate is hence a real number. A low code-rate close to zero implies a strong code that uses many redundant bits to achieve a good performance, while a large code-rate close to 1 implies a weak code. The redundant bits that protect the information have to be transferred using the same communication resources that they are trying to protect.
