4.01.2018 | 10:07:24 | gen. | block universe | блочная вселенная (Eternalism is the view that each spacetime moment exists in and of itself. Modern advocates often take inspiration from the way time is modeled as a dimension in the theory of relativity, giving time a similar ontology to that of space. This would mean that time is just another dimension, that future events are "already there", and that there is no objective flow of time. It is sometimes referred to as the "block time" or "block universe" theory due to its description of space-time as an unchanging four-dimensional "block", as opposed to the view of the world as a three-dimensional space modulated by the passage of time.

28.12.2017 | 19:26:27 | gen. | permanent URL | постоянный URL-адрес (Permanent URLs or permalinks are usually only an issue in databases. This is because databases tend to use dynamic URLs that change each time a search is executed. A dynamic URL will only work for the duration of a session. To reliably return to a resource in a database, a permanent URL is usually needed.) |
28.12.2017 | 14:31:05 | gen. | lean product development | бережливый подход к развитию продукта (Lean product development (LPD) is a lean approach to meet the challenges of product development, notably: Need for more innovative solutions.

It moves activities, including those that may have traditionally been considered homework, into the classroom. In a flipped classroom, students watch online lectures, collaborate in online discussions, or carry out research at home and engage in concepts in the classroom with the guidance of a mentor. WK) |

28.12.2017 | 7:49:02 | gen. | instructions per second | операций в секунду (Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. Many reported IPS values have represented "peak" execution rates on artificial instruction sequences with few branches, whereas realistic workloads typically lead to significantly lower IPS values. Memory hierarchy also greatly affects processor performance, an issue barely considered in IPS calculations. Because of these problems, synthetic benchmarks such as Dhrystone are now generally used to estimate computer performance in commonly used applications, and raw IPS has fallen into disuse. The term is commonly used in association with a numeric value such as thousand/kilo instructions per second (TIPS/KIPS), million instructions per second (MIPS), and billion instructions per second (GIPS).
