  2. Discrete-event simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete-event_simulation

    When events are instantaneous, activities that extend over time are modeled as sequences of events. Some simulation frameworks allow the time of an event to be specified as an interval, giving the start time and the end time of each event. [citation needed] Single-threaded simulation engines based on instantaneous events have just one current ...

  3. Interval scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_scheduling

    Interval scheduling is a class of problems in computer science, particularly in the area of algorithm design. The problems consider a set of tasks. Each task is represented by an interval describing the time in which it needs to be processed by some machine (or, equivalently, scheduled on some resource). For instance, task A might run from 2:00 ...

  4. Time-based one-time password - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_One-Time_Password

    Time-based one-time password (TOTP) is a computer algorithm that generates a one-time password (OTP) using the current time as a source of uniqueness. As an extension of the HMAC-based one-time password algorithm (HOTP), it has been adopted as Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard RFC 6238 .

  5. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(computer...

    In computer science, a generator is a routine that can be used to control the iteration behaviour of a loop. All generators are also iterators. [1] A generator is very similar to a function that returns an array, in that a generator has parameters, can be called, and generates a sequence of values.

  7. Timeout (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeout_(computing)

    Network timeout preventing a Web browser from loading a page. In telecommunications and related engineering (including computer networking and programming), the term timeout or time-out has several meanings, including: A network parameter related to an enforced event designed to occur at the conclusion of a predetermined elapsed time.

  8. Watchdog timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer

    For example, a watchdog timer may be used when running untrusted code in a sandbox, to limit the CPU time available to the code and thus prevent some types of denial-of-service attacks. [2] In real-time operating systems , a watchdog timer may be used to monitor a time-critical task to ensure it completes within its maximum allotted time and ...

  9. Procedural generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_generation

    Roguelikes, and games based on the roguelike concepts, allow the development of complex gameplay without having to spend excessive time in creating a game's world. [7] 1978's Maze Craze for the Atari VCS used an algorithm to generate a random, top-down maze for each game. [8] Some games used pseudorandom number generators.
