  2. Model checking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_checking

    In computer science, model checking or property checking is a method for checking whether a finite-state model of a system meets a given specification (also known as correctness). This is typically associated with hardware or software systems , where the specification contains liveness requirements (such as avoidance of livelock ) as well as ...

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

    In computing, logging is the act of keeping a log of events that occur in a computer system, such as problems, errors or just information on current operations. These events may occur in the operating system or in other software.

  8. Real-time computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing

    Real-time computing (RTC) is the computer science term for hardware and software systems subject to a "real-time constraint", for example from event to system response. [1] Real-time programs must guarantee response within specified time constraints, often referred to as "deadlines".

  9. Polling (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polling_(computer_science)

    A poll message is a control-acknowledgment message.. In a multidrop line arrangement (a central computer and different terminals in which the terminals share a single communication line to and from the computer), the system uses a master/slave polling arrangement whereby the central computer sends message (called polling message) to a specific terminal on the outgoing line.
