  2. Machine-check exception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine-check_exception

    The MCH can handle memory failures in refreshable nucleus control sections by reading a fresh copy from SYS1.ASRLIB and can handle memory errors in SVC transient areas by reading a fresh copy of the SVC module from SYS1.SVCLIB.

  3. Pentium FDIV bug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_FDIV_bug

    Thomas Nicely, a professor of mathematics at Lynchburg College, had written code to enumerate primes, twin primes, prime triplets, and prime quadruplets.Nicely noticed some inconsistencies in the calculations on June 13, 1994, shortly after adding a Pentium system to his group of computers, but was unable to eliminate other factors (such as programming errors, motherboard chipsets, etc.) until ...

  5. Error detection and correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_detection_and_correction

    Error-correcting codes are used in lower-layer communication such as cellular network, high-speed fiber-optic communication and Wi-Fi, [11] [12] as well as for reliable storage in media such as flash memory, hard disk and RAM. [13] Error-correcting codes are usually distinguished between convolutional codes and block codes:

  6. NLS (computer system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLS_(computer_system)

    NLS (oN-Line System) was a revolutionary computer collaboration system developed in the 1960s. It was designed by Douglas Engelbart and implemented by researchers at the Augmentation Research Center (ARC) at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI).

  7. Learning with errors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_with_errors

    In cryptography, learning with errors (LWE) is a mathematical problem that is widely used to create secure encryption algorithms. [1] It is based on the idea of representing secret information as a set of equations with errors. In other words, LWE is a way to hide the value of a secret by introducing noise to it. [2]

  8. Verhoeff algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verhoeff_algorithm

    Verhoeff had the goal of finding a decimal code—one where the check digit is a single decimal digit—which detected all single-digit errors and all transpositions of adjacent digits. At the time, supposed proofs of the nonexistence [ 6 ] of these codes made base-11 codes popular, for example in the ISBN check digit .
