In computer science, control flow (or flow of control) is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program...

Flow control may refer to: Flow control (data), in communications Ethernet flow control Flow control (fluid), in fluid dynamics Air traffic flow control...

overwhelming a slow receiver. Flow control should be distinguished from congestion control, which is used for controlling the flow of data when congestion has...

Software flow control is a method of flow control used in computer data links, especially RS-232 serial. It uses special codes, transmitted in-band, over...

Ethernet flow control is a mechanism for temporarily stopping the transmission of data on Ethernet family computer networks. The goal of this mechanism...

A flow control valve regulates the flow or pressure of a fluid. Control valves normally respond to signals generated by independent devices such as flow...

In computer science, a control-flow graph (CFG) is a representation, using graph notation, of all paths that might be traversed through a program during...

attacks from redirecting the flow of execution (the control flow) of a program. A computer program commonly changes its control flow to make decisions and use...

computer science, control-flow analysis (CFA) is a static-code-analysis technique for determining the control flow of a program. The control flow is expressed...

A control-flow diagram (CFD) is a diagram to describe the control flow of a business process, process or review. Control-flow diagrams were developed...

and expedite the flow of traffic in the air, and provide information and other support for pilots. Personnel of air traffic control monitor aircraft location...

Flow control is a field of fluid dynamics. It involves a small configuration change to serve an ideally large engineering benefit, like drag reduction...

A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. This enables...

smartphone must be able to regulate the data flow so as not to be overwhelmed. TCP uses a sliding window flow control protocol. In each TCP segment, the receiver...

developed for active aerodynamic flow control. Plasma actuators impart force in a similar way to ionocraft. Plasma flow control has drawn considerable attention...

point. Such passive flow control studies are still ongoing, but a large-scale demonstrator has yet to be built. Active flow control by MHD force fields...

sliding window used for flow control. The additive increase/multiplicative decrease (AIMD) algorithm is a closed-loop control algorithm. AIMD combines...

there is a need for symmetric, bidirectional flow control. A symmetric alternative providing flow control in both directions was developed and marketed...

same process synchronization techniques. When the producer supports flow control, the system only sends the ready signal when the consumer is ready for...

engineering, inversion of control (IoC) is a design principle in which custom-written portions of a computer program receive the flow of control from an external...

A flow control structure is a device that alters the flow of water in a stream, drainage channel or pipe. As a group these are passive structures since...

In computer networking, a flit (flow control unit or flow control digit) is a link-level atomic piece that forms a network packet or stream. The first...

to a Gulf stream III aircraft. In active flow control systems, forces in vehicles occur via circulation control, in which larger and more complex mechanical...

a region of the flow called a control volume. A control volume is a discrete volume in space through which fluid is assumed to flow. The integral formulations...

printers that use DTR as flow control. Software handshaking is done for example with ASCII control characters XON/XOFF to control the flow of data. The XON and...
