  3. Distributed control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_control_system

    e. A distributed control system (DCS) is a computerized control system for a process or plant usually with many control loops, in which autonomous controllers are distributed throughout the system, but there is no central operator supervisory control. This is in contrast to systems that use centralized controllers; either discrete controllers ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_unit

    Control unit. The control unit (CU) is a component of a computer's central processing unit (CPU) that directs the operation of the processor. A CU typically uses a binary decoder to convert coded instructions into timing and control signals that direct the operation of the other units (memory, arithmetic logic unit and input and output devices ...

  7. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    e. In computer science, a for-loop or for loop is a control flow statement for specifying iteration. Specifically, a for-loop functions by running a section of code repeatedly until a certain condition has been satisfied. For-loops have two parts: a header and a body. The header defines the iteration and the body is the code that is executed ...

  8. Loop fission and fusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_fission_and_fusion

    Loop fission and fusion. In computer science, loop fission (or loop distribution) is a compiler optimization in which a loop is broken into multiple loops over the same index range with each taking only a part of the original loop's body. [1][2] The goal is to break down a large loop body into smaller ones to achieve better utilization of ...

    The correct number of sections for a fence is n − 1 if the fence is a free-standing line segment bounded by a post at each of its ends (e.g., a fence between two passageway gaps), n if the fence forms one complete, free-standing loop (e.g., enclosure accessible by surmounting, such as a boxing ring), or n + 1 if posts do not occur at the ends ...
