  2. Process (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    Process (computing) In computing, a process is the instance of a computer program that is being executed by one or many threads. There are many different process models, some of which are light weight, but almost all processes (even entire virtual machines) are rooted in an operating system (OS) process which comprises the program code ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_(programming_language)

    Game Oriented Assembly Lisp (or GOAL) is a video game programming language developed by Andy Gavin at Naughty Dog. It was written using Allegro Common Lisp and used in the development of the entire Jak and Daxter series of games developed by Naughty Dog.

  4. Procedural programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_programming

    Procedural programming. Procedural programming is a programming paradigm, classified as imperative programming, [1] that involves implementing the behavior of a computer program as procedures (a.k.a. functions, subroutines) that call each other. The resulting program is a series of steps that forms a hierarchy of calls to its constituent ...

  5. Systems modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_modeling

    Systems modeling or system modeling is the interdisciplinary study of the use of models to conceptualize and construct systems in business and IT development. [2] A common type of systems modeling is function modeling, with specific techniques such as the Functional Flow Block Diagram and IDEF0. These models can be extended using functional ...

  6. Process map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_map

    Process map is a global-system process model that is used to outline the processes that make up the business system and how they interact with each other. Process map shows the processes as objects, which means it is a static and non-algorithmic view of the processes. It should be differentiated from a detailed process model, which shows a ...

  7. Process management (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    t. e. A process is a program in execution, and an integral part of any modern-day operating system (OS). The OS must allocate resources to processes, enable processes to share and exchange information, protect the resources of each process from other processes and enable synchronization among processes. To meet these requirements, The OS must ...

  8. Data-flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-flow_diagram

    Data-flow diagram. A data-flow diagram is a way of representing a flow of data through a process or a system (usually an information system). The DFD also provides information about the outputs and inputs of each entity and the process itself. A data-flow diagram has no control flow — there are no decision rules and no loops.

  9. Flowchart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

    A simple flowchart representing a process for dealing with a non-functioning lamp. A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their ...
