Programmation concurrenteLa programmation concurrente est un paradigme de programmation tenant compte, dans un programme, de l'existence de plusieurs piles sémantiques qui peuvent être appelées threads, processus ou tâches. Elles sont matérialisées en machine par une pile d'exécution et un ensemble de données privées. La concurrence est indispensable lorsque l'on souhaite écrire des programmes interagissant avec le monde réel (qui est concurrent) ou tirant parti de multiples unités centrales (couplées, comme dans un système multiprocesseurs, ou distribuées, éventuellement en grille ou en grappe).
Système embarquéUn système embarqué est un système électronique et informatique autonome, souvent temps réel, spécialisé dans une tâche précise. Le terme désigne aussi bien le matériel informatique que le logiciel utilisé. Ses ressources sont généralement limitées spatialement (encombrement réduit) et énergétiquement (consommation restreinte). L'un des premiers systèmes modernes embarqués reconnaissables a été le Apollo Guidance Computer en 1967, le système de guidage de la mission lunaire Apollo, développé par Charles Stark Draper du Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
High-level synthesisHigh-level synthesis (HLS), sometimes referred to as C synthesis, electronic system-level (ESL) synthesis, algorithmic synthesis, or behavioral synthesis, is an automated design process that takes an abstract behavioral specification of a digital system and finds a register-transfer level structure that realizes the given behavior. Synthesis begins with a high-level specification of the problem, where behavior is generally decoupled from low-level circuit mechanics such as clock-level timing.
Systems modelingSystems modeling or system modeling is the interdisciplinary study of the use of models to conceptualize and construct systems in business and IT development. A common type of systems modeling is function modeling, with specific techniques such as the Functional Flow Block Diagram and IDEF0. These models can be extended using functional decomposition, and can be linked to requirements models for further systems partition.
Cible (marketing)A target market, also known as serviceable obtainable market (SOM), is a group of customers within a business's serviceable available market at which a business aims its marketing efforts and resources. A target market is a subset of the total market for a product or service. The target market typically consists of consumers who exhibit similar characteristics (such as age, location, income or lifestyle) and are considered most likely to buy a business's market offerings or are likely to be the most profitable segments for the business to service by OCHOM Once the target market(s) have been identified, the business will normally tailor the marketing mix (4 Ps) with the needs and expectations of the target in mind.
Consumer behaviourConsumer behaviour is the study of individuals, groups, or organisations and all the activities associated with the purchase, use and disposal of goods and services. Consumer behaviour consists of how the consumer's emotions, attitudes, and preferences affect buying behaviour. Consumer behaviour emerged in the 1940–1950s as a distinct sub-discipline of marketing, but has become an interdisciplinary social science that blends elements from psychology, sociology, social anthropology, anthropology, ethnography, ethnology, marketing, and economics (especially behavioural economics).
Concurrent versions systemCVS (sigle de Concurrent Versions System ("Système de versions concurrentes")) est un système de gestion de versions créé en 1990, qui a été largement utilisé par les projets de logiciels libres. Successeur de SCCS originellement écrit par Dick Grune en 1986, puis complété par Brian Berliner (avec le programme cvs lui-même) en 1989, CVS est par la suite amélioré par de très nombreux contributeurs. Puisqu'il aide les sources à converger vers la même destination, on dira que CVS fait la gestion concurrente de versions ou de la gestion de versions concurrentes.
Target audienceA target audience is the intended audience or readership of a publication, advertisement, or other message catered specifically to said intended audience. In marketing and advertising, it is a particular group of consumer within the predetermined target market, identified as the targets or recipients for a particular advertisement or message. Businesses that have a wide target market will focus on a specific target audience for certain messages to send, such as The Body Shops Mother's Day advertisements, which were aimed at the children and spouses of women, rather than the whole market which would have included the women themselves.
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
Concurrency controlIn information technology and computer science, especially in the fields of computer programming, operating systems, multiprocessors, and databases, concurrency control ensures that correct results for concurrent operations are generated, while getting those results as quickly as possible. Computer systems, both software and hardware, consist of modules, or components. Each component is designed to operate correctly, i.e., to obey or to meet certain consistency rules.
