Ensemble partiellement ordonnéEn mathématiques, un ensemble partiellement ordonné (parfois appelé poset d'après l'anglais partially ordered set) formalise et généralise la notion intuitive d'ordre ou d'arrangement entre les éléments d'un ensemble. Un ensemble partiellement ordonné est un ensemble muni d'une relation d'ordre qui indique que pour certains couples d'éléments, l'un est plus petit que l'autre. Tous les éléments ne sont pas forcément comparables, contrairement au cas d'un ensemble muni d'un ordre total.
Entrepôt de donnéesvignette|redresse=1.5|Vue d'ensemble d'une architecture entrepôt de données. Le terme entrepôt de données ou EDD (ou base de données décisionnelle ; en anglais, data warehouse ou DWH) désigne une base de données utilisée pour collecter, ordonner, journaliser et stocker des informations provenant de base de données opérationnelles et fournir ainsi un socle à l'aide à la décision en entreprise. Un entrepôt de données est une base de données regroupant une partie ou l'ensemble des données fonctionnelles d'une entreprise.
Linearly ordered groupIn mathematics, specifically abstract algebra, a linearly ordered or totally ordered group is a group G equipped with a total order "≤" that is translation-invariant. This may have different meanings. We say that (G, ≤) is a: left-ordered group if ≤ is left-invariant, that is a ≤ b implies ca ≤ cb for all a, b, c in G, right-ordered group if ≤ is right-invariant, that is a ≤ b implies ac ≤ bc for all a, b, c in G, bi-ordered group if ≤ is bi-invariant, that is it is both left- and right-invariant.
Linear probingLinear probing is a scheme in computer programming for resolving collisions in hash tables, data structures for maintaining a collection of key–value pairs and looking up the value associated with a given key. It was invented in 1954 by Gene Amdahl, Elaine M. McGraw, and Arthur Samuel and first analyzed in 1963 by Donald Knuth. Along with quadratic probing and double hashing, linear probing is a form of open addressing. In these schemes, each cell of a hash table stores a single key–value pair.
Cyclic orderIn mathematics, a cyclic order is a way to arrange a set of objects in a circle. Unlike most structures in order theory, a cyclic order is not modeled as a binary relation, such as "a < b". One does not say that east is "more clockwise" than west. Instead, a cyclic order is defined as a ternary relation [a, b, c], meaning "after a, one reaches b before c". For example, [June, October, February], but not [June, February, October], cf. picture. A ternary relation is called a cyclic order if it is cyclic, asymmetric, transitive, and connected.
Ordered ringIn abstract algebra, an ordered ring is a (usually commutative) ring R with a total order ≤ such that for all a, b, and c in R: if a ≤ b then a + c ≤ b + c. if 0 ≤ a and 0 ≤ b then 0 ≤ ab. Ordered rings are familiar from arithmetic. Examples include the integers, the rationals and the real numbers. (The rationals and reals in fact form ordered fields.) The complex numbers, in contrast, do not form an ordered ring or field, because there is no inherent order relationship between the elements 1 and i.
