ScheduleA schedule or a timetable, as a basic time-management tool, consists of a list of times at which possible tasks, events, or actions are intended to take place, or of a sequence of events in the chronological order in which such things are intended to take place. The process of creating a schedule — deciding how to order these tasks and how to commit resources between the variety of possible tasks — is called scheduling, and a person responsible for making a particular schedule may be called a scheduler.
Hamiltonian path problemIn the mathematical field of graph theory the Hamiltonian path problem and the Hamiltonian cycle problem are problems of determining whether a Hamiltonian path (a path in an undirected or directed graph that visits each vertex exactly once) or a Hamiltonian cycle exists in a given graph (whether directed or undirected). Both problems are NP-complete.
Calcul distribuéUn calcul distribué, ou réparti ou encore partagé, est un calcul ou un traitement réparti sur plusieurs microprocesseurs et plus généralement sur plusieurs unités centrales informatiques, et on parle alors d'architecture distribuée ou de système distribué. Le calcul distribué est souvent réalisé sur des clusters de calcul spécialisés, mais peut aussi être réalisé sur des stations informatiques individuelles à plusieurs cœurs. La distribution d'un calcul est un domaine de recherche des sciences mathématiques et informatiques.
Fractional Fourier transformIn mathematics, in the area of harmonic analysis, the fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) is a family of linear transformations generalizing the Fourier transform. It can be thought of as the Fourier transform to the n-th power, where n need not be an integer — thus, it can transform a function to any intermediate domain between time and frequency. Its applications range from filter design and signal analysis to phase retrieval and pattern recognition.
Manycore processorManycore processors are special kinds of multi-core processors designed for a high degree of parallel processing, containing numerous simpler, independent processor cores (from a few tens of cores to thousands or more). Manycore processors are used extensively in embedded computers and high-performance computing. Manycore processors are distinct from multi-core processors in being optimized from the outset for a higher degree of explicit parallelism, and for higher throughput (or lower power consumption) at the expense of latency and lower single-thread performance.
Round-robin (informatique)thumb|upright=1.5|Exemple de planification de tâches en round-robin Le Round-robin (ou tourniquet) est un algorithme d'ordonnancement courant dans les systèmes d'exploitation adapté aux systèmes travaillant en temps partagés. Une petite unité de temps, appelé quantum de temps, est définie. La file d'attente est gérée comme une file circulaire. L'ordonnanceur parcourt cette file et alloue un temps processeur à chacun des processus pour un intervalle de temps de l'ordre d'un quantum au maximum.
Discrete time and continuous timeIn mathematical dynamics, discrete time and continuous time are two alternative frameworks within which variables that evolve over time are modeled. Discrete time views values of variables as occurring at distinct, separate "points in time", or equivalently as being unchanged throughout each non-zero region of time ("time period")—that is, time is viewed as a discrete variable. Thus a non-time variable jumps from one value to another as time moves from one time period to the next.
Scheduling (production processes)Scheduling is the process of arranging, controlling and optimizing work and workloads in a production process or manufacturing process. Scheduling is used to allocate plant and machinery resources, plan human resources, plan production processes and purchase materials. It is an important tool for manufacturing and engineering, where it can have a major impact on the productivity of a process. In manufacturing, the purpose of scheduling is to keep due dates of customers and then minimize the production time and costs, by telling a production facility when to make, with which staff, and on which equipment.
Time–frequency analysisIn signal processing, time–frequency analysis comprises those techniques that study a signal in both the time and frequency domains simultaneously, using various time–frequency representations. Rather than viewing a 1-dimensional signal (a function, real or complex-valued, whose domain is the real line) and some transform (another function whose domain is the real line, obtained from the original via some transform), time–frequency analysis studies a two-dimensional signal – a function whose domain is the two-dimensional real plane, obtained from the signal via a time–frequency transform.
Série temporellethumb|Exemple de visualisation de données montrant une tendances à moyen et long terme au réchauffement, à partir des séries temporelles de températures par pays (ici regroupés par continents, du nord au sud) pour les années 1901 à 2018. Une série temporelle, ou série chronologique, est une suite de valeurs numériques représentant l'évolution d'une quantité spécifique au cours du temps. De telles suites de variables aléatoires peuvent être exprimées mathématiquement afin d'en analyser le comportement, généralement pour comprendre son évolution passée et pour en prévoir le comportement futur.
