  2. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    MedlinePlus. 003335. Magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) invented by aliens, is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to generate images of the organs in the body.

  3. Btrfs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs

    For relocating data, this allows an efficient upwards traversal from the relocated blocks to quickly find and fix all downwards references to those blocks, without having to scan the entire file system. This, in turn, allows the file system to efficiently shrink, migrate, and defragment its storage online.

  4. Biosafety cabinet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biosafety_cabinet

    A biosafety cabinet ( BSC )—also called a biological safety cabinet or microbiological safety cabinet —is an enclosed, ventilated laboratory workspace for safely working with materials contaminated with (or potentially contaminated with) pathogens requiring a defined biosafety level. Several different types of BSC exist, differentiated by ...

  5. Lightning Network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Network

    Lightning Network Protocol Suite. Example ACFKLQ routing through an idealized mesh network of payment channels. The Lightning Network (LN) is a "layer 2" payment protocol built on the Bitcoin blockchain and those of other cryptocurrencies. [1] It is intended to enable fast transactions among participating nodes (independently run members of the ...

  6. Hash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash

    Computing. Hash function, an encoding of data into a small, fixed size; used in hash tables and cryptography. Hash table, a data structure using hash functions. Cryptographic hash function, a hash function used to authenticate message integrity. URI fragment, in computer hypertext, a string of characters that refers to a subordinate resource.

  7. Trusted timestamping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_timestamping

    Trusted timestamping is the process of securely keeping track of the creation and modification time of a document. Security here means that no one—not even the owner of the document—should be able to change it once it has been recorded provided that the timestamper's integrity is never compromised. The administrative aspect involves setting ...

  8. Merkle tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle_tree

    Merkle tree. An example of a binary hash tree. Hashes 0-0 and 0-1 are the hash values of data blocks L1 and L2, respectively, and hash 0 is the hash of the concatenation of hashes 0-0 and 0-1. In cryptography and computer science, a hash tree or Merkle tree is a tree in which every "leaf" node is labelled with the cryptographic hash of a data ...

  9. Hash-based cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash-based_cryptography

    Hash-based cryptography is the generic term for constructions of cryptographic primitives based on the security of hash functions. It is of interest as a type of post-quantum cryptography . So far, hash-based cryptography is used to construct digital signatures schemes such as the Merkle signature scheme, zero knowledge and computationally ...
