home 16 Oct 2014 - By Karl Seguin I realized something recently: I know virtually nothing about UDP. Oh, I know it's connectionless, has no handshaking and thus doesn't provide any guarantees about delivery or ordering. But, in practice, what does that actually mean? I setup 5 VPS to send each other a few UDP packets over a 7 hour period. I didn't send much traffic (though that's certainly worth trying). Each server, every 9-11 second, randomly picked a target and sent 5-10 packets ranging from 16 to 1016 bytes. 2 servers were in the same data center in New Jersey. 1 each in LA, Amsterdam and Tokyo. The first thing I wanted to know was how unreliable UDP was. Are we talking about a delivery rate of 25%? 50%? 75%?

CentralNotice Joule (programming language) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation , search Joule Paradigm(s) multi-paradigm : object-oriented , distributed , Dataflow Designed by E. Dean Tribble Appeared in 1996 Typing discipline untyped Influenced by Concurrent Logic Programming , Actors Influenced E Joule is a concurrent dataflow programming language, designed for building distributed applications . It is so concurrent that the order of statements within a block is irrelevant to the operation of the block. Statements are executed whenever possible, based on their inputs. Everything in Joule happens by sending messages. There is no control flow . Instead, the programmer describes the flow of data, making it a dataflow programming language. It is considered the precursor to the E programming language . Language syntax [ ed...

CentralNotice Persistent data structure From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation , search In computing , a persistent data structure is a data structure that always preserves the previous version of itself when it is modified. Such data structures are effectively immutable , as their operations do not (visibly) update the structure in-place, but instead always yield a new updated structure. (A persistent data structure is not a data structure committed to persistent storage , such as a disk; this is a different and unrelated sense of the word "persistent.") A data structure is partially persistent if all versions can be accessed but only the newest version can be modified. The data structure is fully persistent if every version can be both accessed and modified. If there is also a meld or merge operation that can create a new version from two previous v...

Empty This chapter describes Mnemosyne, the Mnesia database query language, and the syntax, semantics, and rules which apply to Mnesia queries. The following sections are included: Mnemosyne - the Mnesia query language Evaluating queries Mnesia query examples Matching Generated functions The following notational conventions are used in this chapter: Reserved words and symbols are written like this: table . Syntactic categories are written like this: <pattern> . Empty Empty Mnemosyne is the query language and the optimizing query compiler for the Mnesia Database Management System. Empty Database queries are used when more complex operations than just a simple key-value lookup are required on a database. A query can find all records in a table that fulfills a given property. For example, think of a table storing the status of subscriber lines in a telephone exchan...
