Constrained optimizationIn mathematical optimization, constrained optimization (in some contexts called constraint optimization) is the process of optimizing an objective function with respect to some variables in the presence of constraints on those variables. The objective function is either a cost function or energy function, which is to be minimized, or a reward function or utility function, which is to be maximized.
Optimisation convexevignette|320x320px|Optimisation convexe dans un espace en deux dimensions dans un espace contraint L'optimisation convexe est une sous-discipline de l'optimisation mathématique, dans laquelle le critère à minimiser est convexe et l'ensemble admissible est convexe. Ces problèmes sont plus simples à analyser et à résoudre que les problèmes d'optimisation non convexes, bien qu'ils puissent être NP-difficile (c'est le cas de l'optimisation copositive). La théorie permettant d'analyser ces problèmes ne requiert pas la différentiabilité des fonctions.
Optimizing compilerIn computing, an optimizing compiler is a compiler that tries to minimize or maximize some attributes of an executable computer program. Common requirements are to minimize a program's execution time, memory footprint, storage size, and power consumption (the last three being popular for portable computers). Compiler optimization is generally implemented using a sequence of optimizing transformations, algorithms which take a program and transform it to produce a semantically equivalent output program that uses fewer resources or executes faster.
Interprocedural optimizationInterprocedural optimization (IPO) is a collection of compiler techniques used in computer programming to improve performance in programs containing many frequently used functions of small or medium length. IPO differs from other compiler optimizations by analyzing the entire program as opposed to a single function or block of code. IPO seeks to reduce or eliminate duplicate calculations and inefficient use of memory and to simplify iterative sequences such as loops.
Numerical linear algebraNumerical linear algebra, sometimes called applied linear algebra, is the study of how matrix operations can be used to create computer algorithms which efficiently and accurately provide approximate answers to questions in continuous mathematics. It is a subfield of numerical analysis, and a type of linear algebra. Computers use floating-point arithmetic and cannot exactly represent irrational data, so when a computer algorithm is applied to a matrix of data, it can sometimes increase the difference between a number stored in the computer and the true number that it is an approximation of.
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.
Langage de modélisationUn langage de modélisation est un langage artificiel qui peut être utilisé pour exprimer de l'information ou de la connaissance ou des systèmes dans une structure qui est définie par un ensemble cohérent de règles. Les règles sont utilisées pour l'interprétation de la signification des composants dans la structure. Un langage de modélisation peut être graphique ou textuel.
Système anémobarométriqueLe système anémobarométrique d'un aéronef est un système d'instruments de mesure de la pression servant à déterminer sa vitesse, son altitude et sa vitesse verticale. Il comprend un tube de Pitot, qui mesure la pression totale, et des prises statiques, pour la pression statique (ou une sonde combinée pitot-statique) ainsi que les instruments qui leur sont reliés, l'anémomètre, l'altimètre et le variomètre, parfois aussi un machmètre.
Global optimizationGlobal optimization is a branch of applied mathematics and numerical analysis that attempts to find the global minima or maxima of a function or a set of functions on a given set. It is usually described as a minimization problem because the maximization of the real-valued function is equivalent to the minimization of the function . Given a possibly nonlinear and non-convex continuous function with the global minima and the set of all global minimizers in , the standard minimization problem can be given as that is, finding and a global minimizer in ; where is a (not necessarily convex) compact set defined by inequalities .
Dynamic linkerIn computing, a dynamic linker is the part of an operating system that loads and links the shared libraries needed by an executable when it is executed (at "run time"), by copying the content of libraries from persistent storage to RAM, filling jump tables and relocating pointers. The specific operating system and executable format determine how the dynamic linker functions and how it is implemented.
Modélisation des donnéesDans la conception d'un système d'information, la modélisation des données est l'analyse et la conception de l'information contenue dans le système afin de représenter la structure de ces informations et de structurer le stockage et les traitements informatiques. Il s'agit essentiellement d'identifier les entités logiques et les dépendances logiques entre ces entités.
High dynamic rangeHigh dynamic range (HDR) is a dynamic range higher than usual, synonyms are wide dynamic range, extended dynamic range, expanded dynamic range. The term is often used in discussing the dynamic range of various signals such as s, videos, audio or radio. It may apply to the means of recording, processing, and reproducing such signals including analog and digitized signals. The term is also the name of some of the technologies or techniques allowing to achieve high dynamic range images, videos, or audio.
