The GM-NAA I/O input/output system of General Motors and North American Aviation was the first operating system for the IBM 704 computer. [1] [2] It was created in 1956 by Robert L. Patrick of General Motors Research and Owen Mock of North American Aviation. [1] It was based on a system monitor created in 1955 by programmers of General Motors ...
In econometrics and statistics, the generalized method of moments (GMM) is a generic method for estimating parameters in statistical models.Usually it is applied in the context of semiparametric models, where the parameter of interest is finite-dimensional, whereas the full shape of the data's distribution function may not be known, and therefore maximum likelihood estimation is not applicable.
It is an improvement on the General Motors GM-NAA I/O operating system, the first operating system for the IBM 704. The main objective was to improve the sharing of programs. The SHARE Operating System provided new methods to manage buffers and input/output devices. Like GM-NAA I/O, it allowed execution of programs written in assembly language.
In computer science, gang scheduling is a scheduling algorithm for parallel systems that schedules related threads or processes to run simultaneously on different processors. Usually these will be threads all belonging to the same process, but they may also be from different processes, where the processes could have a producer-consumer ...
In econometrics, the Arellano–Bond estimator is a generalized method of moments estimator used to estimate dynamic models of panel data.It was proposed in 1991 by Manuel Arellano and Stephen Bond, [1] based on the earlier work by Alok Bhargava and John Denis Sargan in 1983, for addressing certain endogeneity problems.

Contiki is designed to run on types of hardware devices that are severely constrained in memory, power, processing power, and communication bandwidth.A typical Contiki system has memory on the order of kilobytes, a power budget on the order of milliwatts, processing speed measured in megaHertz, and communication bandwidth on the order of hundreds of kilobits/second.
The foundational theory of graph cuts was first applied in computer vision in the seminal paper by Greig, Porteous and Seheult [3] of Durham University.Allan Seheult and Bruce Porteous were members of Durham's lauded statistics group of the time, led by Julian Besag and Peter Green, with the optimisation expert Margaret Greig notable as the first ever female member of staff of the Durham ...
In a system with process isolation, limited (controlled) interaction between processes may still be allowed over inter-process communication (IPC) channels such as shared memory, local sockets or Internet sockets. In this scheme, all of the process' memory is isolated from other processes except where the process is allowing input from ...
