  2. CAP theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAP_theorem

    This is the definition of availability in CAP theorem as defined by Gilbert and Lynch. [1] Note that availability as defined in CAP theorem is different from high availability in software architecture. [5] Partition tolerance The system continues to operate despite an arbitrary number of messages being dropped (or delayed) by the network ...

  3. PACELC theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The tradeoff between availability, consistency and latency, as described by the PACELC theorem. In database theory, the PACELC theorem is an extension to the CAP theorem.It states that in case of network partitioning (P) in a distributed computer system, one has to choose between availability (A) and consistency (C) (as per the CAP theorem), but else (E), even when the system is running ...

  4. Divergence (computer science) - Wikipedia

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

    The notation t ↓ n means that t reduces to normal form n in zero or more reductions, t↓ means t reduces to some normal form in zero or more reductions, and t↑ means t does not reduce to a normal form; the latter is impossible in a terminating rewriting system. In the lambda calculus an expression is divergent if it has no normal form. [3]

  5. Lambda architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_architecture

    The two view outputs may be joined before presentation. The rise of lambda architecture is correlated with the growth of big data, real-time analytics, and the drive to mitigate the latencies of map-reduce. [1] Lambda architecture depends on a data model with an append-only, immutable data source that serves as a system of record.

  6. Concurrency control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrency_control

    Thus concurrency control is an essential element for correctness in any system where two database transactions or more, executed with time overlap, can access the same data, e.g., virtually in any general-purpose database system. Consequently, a vast body of related research has been accumulated since database systems emerged in the early 1970s.

  7. History of the Actor model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Actor_model

    The Smalltalk system went on to become very influential, innovating in bitmap displays, personal computing, the class browser interface, and many other ways. For details see Kay's The Early History of Smalltalk. [1] Meanwhile, the Actor efforts at MIT remained focused on developing the science and engineering of higher level concurrency.

  8. Model of computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_of_computation

    In computer science, and more specifically in computability theory and computational complexity theory, a model of computation is a model which describes how an output of a mathematical function is computed given an input.

  9. Continuation-passing style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation-passing_style

    In functional programming, continuation-passing style (CPS) is a style of programming in which control is passed explicitly in the form of a continuation.This is contrasted with direct style, which is the usual style of programming.
