  2. Page fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_fault

    In computing, a page fault (sometimes called PF or hard fault) [a] is an exception that the memory management unit (MMU) raises when a process accesses a memory page without proper preparations. Accessing the page requires a mapping to be added to the process's virtual address space. Besides, the actual page contents may need to be loaded from ...

  3. Kernel panic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_panic

    After recompiling a kernel binary image from source code, a kernel panic while booting the resulting kernel is a common problem if the kernel was not correctly configured, compiled or installed. Add-on hardware or malfunctioning RAM could also be sources of fatal kernel errors during start up, due to incompatibility with the OS or a missing ...

  4. Kernel (operating system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(operating_system)

    The kernel is a computer program at the core of a computer's operating system and generally has complete control over everything in the system. The kernel is also responsible for preventing and mitigating conflicts between different processes. [1] It is the portion of the operating system code that is always resident in memory [2] and ...

  5. ntoskrnl.exe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntoskrnl

    ntoskrnl.exe (short for Windows NT operating system kernel executable ), also known as the kernel image, contains the kernel and executive layers of the Microsoft Windows NT kernel, and is responsible for hardware abstraction, process handling, and memory management. In addition to the kernel and executive layers, it contains the cache manager ...

  6. Kernel Fisher discriminant analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_Fisher_Discriminant...

    Kernel Fisher discriminant analysis. In statistics, kernel Fisher discriminant analysis (KFD), [1] also known as generalized discriminant analysis [2] and kernel discriminant analysis, [3] is a kernelized version of linear discriminant analysis (LDA). It is named after Ronald Fisher .

  7. Booting process of Windows - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Windows

    In Windows NT, the booting process is initiated by NTLDR in versions before Vista and the Windows Boot Manager in Vista and later. [4] The boot loader is responsible for accessing the file system on the boot drive, starting ntoskrnl.exe, and loading boot-time device drivers into memory. Once all the boot and system drivers have been loaded, the ...

  8. Blue screen of death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_screen_of_death

    BSoDs in the Windows NT family initially used the 80×50 text mode on a 720×400 screen. Windows 2000, Windows XP, Vista, and 7 BSoDs use the 640×480 screen resolution. Windows 2000 used its built-in kernel mode font, Windows XP, Vista, and 7 use the Lucida Console font, and Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 used the Segoe UI font. BSoDs on ...

  9. Kernel principal component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_principal_component...

    Kernel principal component analysis. In the field of multivariate statistics, kernel principal component analysis (kernel PCA) [1] is an extension of principal component analysis (PCA) using techniques of kernel methods. Using a kernel, the originally linear operations of PCA are performed in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space .
