    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_image

    In computing, a system image is a serialized copy of the entire state of a computer system stored in some non-volatile form, such as a binary executable file.. If a system has all its state written to a disk (i.e. on a disk image), then a system image can be produced by copying the disk to a file elsewhere, often with disk cloning applications.

    An example of non-orthogonal persistence using a system image is a simple text editing program executing specific instructions to save an entire document to a file. Shortcomings: Requires enough RAM to hold the entire system state. State changes made to a system after its last image was saved are lost in the case of a system failure or shutdown.

    These elements may include whole programs, libraries, associated configuration information, or other data. Performance may deteriorate overall as a result of such remnants, as the unwanted software or software components can occupy both hard disk memory and RAM, waste processing time, add disk I/O , and cause delays at system startup and shutdown.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduplication

    A reduplicant can copy from either the left edge of a word (left-to-right copying) or from the right edge (right-to-left copying). There is a tendency for prefixing reduplicants to copy left-to-right and for suffixing reduplicants to copy right-to-left: Initial L → R copying in Oykangand Kunjen (a Pama–Nyungan language of Australia):
