  2. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count-distinct_problem

    Thus, the existence of duplicates does not affect the value of the extreme order statistics. There are other estimation techniques other than min/max sketches. The first paper on count-distinct estimation [7] describes the Flajolet–Martin algorithm, a bit pattern sketch. In this case, the elements are hashed into a bit vector and the sketch ...

  3. Data deduplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_deduplication

    In computing, data deduplication is a technique for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data. Successful implementation of the technique can improve storage utilization, which may in turn lower capital expenditure by reducing the overall amount of storage media required to meet storage capacity needs.

  4. Moore's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore's_law

    Finally, to keep electric field constant, voltage would be reduced by 30%, reducing energy by 65% and power (at 1.4× frequency) by 50%. [c] Therefore, in every technology generation transistor density would double, circuit becomes 40% faster, while power consumption (with twice the number of transistors) stays the same. [141]

  5. Counting sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_sort

    The simplicity of the counting sort algorithm and its use of the easily parallelizable prefix sum primitive also make it usable in more fine-grained parallel algorithms. [7] As described, counting sort is not an in-place algorithm; even disregarding the count array, it needs separate input and output arrays. It is possible to modify the ...

  6. Bi-quinary coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-quinary_coded_decimal

    Bi-quinary coded decimal is a numeral encoding scheme used in many abacuses and in some early computers, notably the Colossus. [2] The term bi-quinary indicates that the code comprises both a two-state (bi) and a five-state (quinary) component. The encoding resembles that used by many abacuses, with four beads indicating the five values either ...

  7. Abacus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abacus

    Bi-quinary coded decimal-like abacus representing 1,352,964,708. An abacus (pl. abaci or abacuses), also called a counting frame, is a hand-operated calculating tool which was used from ancient times in the ancient Near East, Europe, China, and Russia, until the adoption of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system.

  8. Duplicate code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplicate_code

    In computer programming, duplicate code is a sequence of source code that occurs more than once, either within a program or across different programs owned or maintained by the same entity. Duplicate code is generally considered undesirable for a number of reasons. [ 1 ]

  9. Box counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_counting

    Box counting is a method of gathering data for analyzing complex patterns by breaking a dataset, object, image, etc. into smaller and smaller pieces, typically "box"-shaped, and analyzing the pieces at each smaller scale. The essence of the process has been compared to zooming in or out using optical or computer based methods to examine how ...
