  2. Epoch (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    Software timekeeping systems vary widely in the resolution of time measurement; some systems may use time units as large as a day, while others may use nanoseconds.For example, for an epoch date of midnight UTC (00:00) on 1 January 1900, and a time unit of a second, the time of the midnight (24:00) between 1 January 1900 and 2 January 1900 is represented by the number 86400, the number of ...

  3. Year 2038 problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Many computer systems measure time and date using Unix time, an international standard for digital timekeeping.Unix time is defined as the number of seconds elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970 (an arbitrarily chosen time based on the creation of the first Unix system), which has been dubbed the Unix epoch.

  4. Timestamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timestamp

    Some file archivers and some version control software, when they copy a file from some remote computer to the local computer, adjust the timestamps of the local file to show the date/time in the past when that file was created or modified on that remote computer, rather than the date/time when that file was copied to the local computer.

  5. System time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_time

    System time can be converted into calendar time, which is a form more suitable for human comprehension. For example, the Unix system time 1 000 000 000 seconds since the beginning of the epoch translates into the calendar time 9 September 2001 01:46:40 UT .

  6. Runtime verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runtime_verification

    Runtime verification is a computing system analysis and execution approach based on extracting information from a running system and using it to detect and possibly react to observed behaviors satisfying or violating certain properties. [1]

  7. Unix time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

    Unix time [a] is a date and time representation widely used in computing. It measures time by the number of non-leap seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970, the Unix epoch. For example, at midnight on 1 January 2010, Unix time was 1262304000. Unix time originated as the system time of Unix operating systems.

  8. Single-machine scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-machine_scheduling

    Single-machine scheduling or single-resource scheduling or Dhinchak Pooja is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.We are given n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on a single machine, in a way that optimizes a certain objective, such as the throughput.

  9. Formal equivalence checking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_equivalence_checking

    Equivalence of Software Programs, i.e. checking if two well-defined programs that take N inputs and produce M outputs are equivalent: Conceptually, you can turn software into a state machine (that's what the combination of a compiler does, since a computer plus its memory form a very large state machine.)
