  2. Carrier-sense multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access

    P-persistent This approach lies between the 1-persistent and non-persistent CSMA access modes. [1] When the transmitting node is ready to transmit data, it senses the transmission medium for idle or busy. If idle, then it transmits immediately. If busy, then it senses the transmission medium continuously until it becomes idle, then transmits ...

  3. HTTP persistent connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection

    Under HTTP 1.0, connections should always be closed by the server after sending the response. [1]Since at least late 1995, [2] developers of popular products (browsers, web servers, etc.) using HTTP/1.0, started to add an unofficial extension (to the protocol) named "keep-alive" in order to allow the reuse of a connection for multiple requests/responses.

  4. HTTP pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_pipelining

    HTTP pipelining is a feature of HTTP/1.1, which allows multiple HTTP requests to be sent over a single TCP connection without waiting for the corresponding responses. [1] HTTP/1.1 requires servers to respond to pipelined requests correctly, with non-pipelined but valid responses even if server does not support HTTP pipelining.

    A chemical weapon agent (CWA), or chemical warfare agent, is a chemical substance whose toxic properties are meant to kill, injure or incapacitate human beings.About 70 different chemicals have been used or stockpiled as chemical weapon agents during the 20th century, although the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has an online database listing 35,942 chemicals which ...

  6. Persistent memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_memory

    The read-of-non-persistent-write problem is found for lock-free programs on persistent memory. As compare-and-swap (CAS) operations do not persist the written values to persistent memory, the modified data can be made visible by the cache coherence protocol to a concurrent observer before the modified data can be observed by a crash observer at persistent memory.

  7. Persistent data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_data_structure

    Perhaps the simplest persistent data structure is the singly linked list or cons-based list, a simple list of objects formed by each carrying a reference to the next in the list. This is persistent because the tail of the list can be taken, meaning the last k items for some k, and new nodes can be added in front of it. The tail will not be ...

  8. Persistent data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_data

    Persistent data in the field of data processing denotes information that is infrequently accessed and unlikely to be modified. [1] Static data is information, for example a record, that does not change and may be intended to be permanent. It may have previously been categorized as persistent or dynamic.

  9. Persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent,_bio...

    [11] [12] Humans and other organisms, which consume shellfish and/or fish contaminated with persistent bioaccumulative pollutants, have the potential to bioaccumulate these chemicals. [2] This may put these organisms at risk of mutagenic, teratogenic, and/or carcinogenic effects. [ 2 ]
