  2. Minesweeper (video game) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minesweeper_(video_game)

    Competitive Minesweeper players aim to complete the game as fast as possible. The players memorize patterns to reduce times. [1] Some players use a technique called the "1.5 click", which aids in revealing mines, while other players do not flag mines at all. [1] The game is played competitively in tournaments. [1]

  3. CPU time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_time

    CPU time (or process time) is the amount of time that a central processing unit (CPU) was used for processing instructions of a computer program or operating system. CPU time is measured in clock ticks or seconds. Sometimes it is useful to convert CPU time into a percentage of the CPU capacity, giving the CPU usage.

  4. Instructions per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructions_per_second

    Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.

  5. Minecart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecart

    Cart from 16th century, found in Transylvania A dumper minecart used in the Basque Country, currently at the Minery Museum.. A minecart, mine cart, or mine car (or more rarely mine trolley or mine hutch) is a type of rolling stock found on a mine railway, used for transporting ore and materials procured in the process of traditional mining.

  6. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    From the frame of reference of a moving observer traveling at the speed v relative to the resting frame of the clock (right part of diagram), the light pulse is seen as tracing out a longer, angled path 2D. Keeping the speed of light constant for all inertial observers requires a lengthening (that is dilation) of the time period between the ...

  7. Cycles per instruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycles_per_instruction

    For example, with six executions units, six new instructions are fetched in stage 1 only after the six previous instructions finish at stage 5, therefore on average the number of clock cycles it takes to execute an instruction is 5/6 (CPI = 5/6 < 1). To get better CPI values with pipelining, there must be at least two execution units.

  8. Mental calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculator

    A mental calculator or human calculator is a person with a prodigious ability in some area of mental calculation (such as adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing large numbers). In 2005, a group of researchers led by Michael W. O'Boyle, an American psychologist previously working in Australia and now at Texas Tech University , has used MRI ...

  9. Frequent subtree mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequent_subtree_mining

    The problem of frequent subtree mining has been formally defined as: [1] Given a threshold minfreq, a class of trees , a transitive subtree relation between trees ,, a finite set of trees , the frequent subtree mining problem is the problem of finding all trees such that no two trees in are isomorphic and
