  2. CMake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMake

    CMake generates configuration files for other build tools based on CMake-specific configuration files. The other tools are responsible for more directly building; using the generated files. A single set of CMake-specific configuration files can be used to build a codebase using the native build tools of multiple platforms. [4]

  3. Test and test-and-set - Wikipedia

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

    In computer architecture, the test-and-set CPU instruction (or instruction sequence) is designed to implement mutual exclusion in multiprocessor environments. Although a correct lock can be implemented with test-and-set, the test and test-and-set optimization lowers resource contention caused by bus locking, especially cache coherency protocol overhead on contended locks.

  4. Message Passing Interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Passing_Interface

    The paradigm can apply in multiple settings, independent of network speed or memory architecture. Support for MPI meetings came in part from DARPA and from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) under grant ASC-9310330, NSF Science and Technology Center Cooperative agreement number CCR-8809615, and from the European Commission through ...

  5. P2P caching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P2P_caching

    This cache is placed in the ISP's network, either co-located with the Internet transit links or placed at key aggregation points or at each cable head-end. Once a P2P cache is established, the network will transparently redirect P2P traffic to the cache, which either serves the file directly or passes the request on to a remote P2P user and ...

  6. Interprocedural optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interprocedural_optimization

    Whole program optimization (WPO) is the compiler optimization of a program using information about all the modules in the program. Normally, optimizations are performed on a per module, "compiland", basis; but this approach, while easier to write and test and less demanding of resources during the compilation itself, does not allow certainty about the safety of a number of optimizations such ...

  7. Cache placement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_placement_policies

    A block of memory cannot necessarily be placed at an arbitrary location in the cache; it may be restricted to a particular cache line or a set of cache lines [1] by the cache's placement policy. [2] [3] There are three different policies available for placement of a memory block in the cache: direct-mapped, fully associative, and set-associative.

  8. Inline caching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inline_caching

    A megamorphic inline cache can be implemented by creating code to perform a first-level method lookup for a particular call-site. In this scheme, once a send falls off the end of a polymorphic inline cache, a megamorphic cache specific to the call site's selector is created (or shared if one already exists), and the send site is relinked to ...

  9. Wikipedia:Bypass your cache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bypass_your_cache

    If you would like to keep your data in your cache and test Wikipedia with an empty cache, you can use Private Browsing mode. To disable caching in Firefox (not recommended for most users): Choose Tools Options… (or Edit Preferences in the Linux version). Choose "Advanced" at the top. Choose the "Network" tab. Change the cache size to 0 (zero).
