  2. Address space layout randomization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_space_layout...

    Address space layout randomization (ASLR) is a computer security technique involved in preventing exploitation of memory corruption vulnerabilities. In order to prevent an attacker from reliably redirecting code execution to, for example, a particular exploited function in memory, ASLR randomly arranges the address space positions of key data areas of a process, including the base of the ...

  3. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    Link-local address. In computer networking, a link-local address is a network address that is valid only for communications on a local link, i.e. within a subnetwork that a host is connected to. Link-local addresses are most often unicast network addresses assigned automatically through a process known as stateless address autoconfiguration ...

  4. Addresses in South Korea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addresses_in_South_Korea

    Addresses in South Korea are used to identify specific locations within the country. South Korea has replaced its land lot-based address system with one based on street names. The switching of the address system is to make it easier for foreigners as well as Koreans to find their destinations. The current official system, the Road Name Address ...

  5. Private network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network

    Private network. In Internet networking, a private network is a computer network that uses a private address space of IP addresses. These addresses are commonly used for local area networks (LANs) in residential, office, and enterprise environments. Both the IPv4 and the IPv6 specifications define private IP address ranges.

  6. Random access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_access

    Random access (more precisely and more generally called direct access) is the ability to access an arbitrary element of a sequence in equal time or any datum from a population of addressable elements roughly as easily and efficiently as any other, no matter how many elements may be in the set. In computer science it is typically contrasted to ...

  7. Unique local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_local_address

    A unique local address ( ULA) is an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address in the address range fc00:: / 7. [1] These addresses are non-globally reachable [2] (routable only within the scope of private networks, but not the global IPv6 Internet). For this reason, ULAs are somewhat analogous to IPv4 private network addressing, but with ...

  8. Address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address

    An address is a collection of information, presented in a mostly fixed format, used to give the location of a building, apartment, or other structure or a plot of land, generally using political boundaries and street names as references, along with other identifiers such as house or apartment numbers and organization name.

  9. Random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random-access_memory

    MOS memory, based on MOS transistors, was developed in the late 1960s, and was the basis for all early commercial semiconductor memory. The first commercial DRAM IC chip, the 1K Intel 1103, was introduced in October 1970. Synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) later debuted with the Samsung KM48SL2000 chip in 1992.
