Reachability analysis was introduced in a paper of 1978 for the analysis and verification of communication protocols. [1] This paper was inspired by a paper by Bartlett et al. of 1968 [2] which presented the alternating bit protocol using finite-state modeling of the protocol entities, and also pointed out that a similar protocol described earlier had a design flaw.
The second session on the disc causes some CD/DVD players to hang, typically some car players (allegedly using CD-ROM drive mechanisms) and some MP3 capable players that can see but not understand the second data session. The second session has been circumvented by another method, which is to either place masking tape around the disc near the ...
The critical parts of the OS run in kernel mode, while other software (such as system utilities and application programs) run in user mode. This serves as the fundamental distinction between the OS and other system software. The part of the system executing in the kernel mode is called the kernel, or nucleus, of the OS. The kernel is designed ...
When the computer system is executing on behalf of a user application, the system is in user mode. However, when a user application requests a service from the operating system (via a system call), the system must transition from user to kernel mode to fulfill the request. User mode avoids various catastrophic failures:
The client must either be directed to the same server for the duration of the session, or the servers must transmit server-side session information via a shared file system or database. Otherwise, the client may reconnect to a different server than the one it started the session with, which will cause problems when the new server does not have ...
An email was sent to our customers in 2017 warning that AOL Mail would no longer be accessible through third-party apps if connection settings weren't updated by November 7, 2017.

Figure 7: State roles in a state transition. In UML, a state transition can directly connect any two states. These two states, which may be composite, are designated as the main source and the main target of a transition. Figure 7 shows a simple transition example and explains the state roles in that transition.
Context switching itself has a cost in performance, due to running the task scheduler, TLB flushes, and indirectly due to sharing the CPU cache between multiple tasks. [7] Switching between threads of a single process can be faster than between two separate processes because threads share the same virtual memory maps, so a TLB flush is not ...
