The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) — known between 1901 and 1988 as the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) — is a measurement standards laboratory and a non-regulatory agency of the United States Department of Commerce. The institute's official mission is to promote U.S. ...
A vertex of a directed graph with no outgoing edges. More formally, a vertex with with out-degree 0.
Industry:Computer science
A vertex on an matched edge in a matching, or, one which has been matched.
Industry:Computer science
A vertex v is reachable from another vertex u if there is a path of any length from u to v.
Industry:Computer science
A vertex whose deletion along with incident edges results in a graph with more components than the original graph.

A visual depiction of membership in sets according to binary properties, using overlapping ovals to divide the plane into regions. Regions inside an oval have the property the oval represents, while regions outside it do not have the property. Regions are shaded to show combinations of properties (or sets) of interest, or elements are placed in regions corresponding to their properties (or membership).

A way of handling collisions, that is, when two or more items should be kept in the same location, especially in a hash table. The general ways are keeping subsequent items within the table and computing possible locations (open addressing), keeping lists for items that collide (chaining), or keeping one special overflow area.

A way to represent a multiway tree as a binary tree. The leftmost child, c, of a node, n, in the multiway tree is the left child, c', of the corresponding node, n', in the binary tree. The immediately right sibling of c is the right child of c'. Formal Definition: A multiway tree T can be represented by a corresponding binary tree B. Let (n<sub>1</sub>,..., n<sub>k</sub>) be nodes of the multiway tree, T. Let (n'<sub>1</sub>,..., n'<sub>k</sub>) be nodes of the corresponding binary tree B. Node n<sub>k</sub> corresponds to n'<sub>k</sub>. In particular, nodes n<sub>k</sub> and n'<sub>k</sub> have the same labels and if n<sub>k</sub> is the root of T, n'<sub>k</sub> is the root of B. Connections correspond as follows: </p> <ul> <li>If n<sub>l</sub> is the leftmost child of n<sub>k</sub>, n'<sub>l</sub> is the left child of n'<sub>k</sub>. (If n<sub>k</sub> has no children, n'<sub>k</sub> has no left child.) <li>If n<sub>s</sub> is the next (immediately right) sibling of n<sub>k</sub>, n'<sub>s</sub> is the right child of n'<sub>k</sub>. </ul>

A wonderful wife. Every man should have such an incredible wife. We got married in 1976, too, and life's only gotten much better.
