Unreferenced date December 2009 In ordinary computer programming, the programmer keeps the program s intended results in mind and painstakingly constructs a computer program to achieve those results. Inferential programming refers to still mostly hypothetical techniques and technologies enabling the inverse. Inferential programming would allow the programmer to describe the intended result to the computer using a metaphor such as a fitness function , a test specification, or a logical specification and then the computer would construct its own program to meet the supplied criteria. During the 1980s, approaches to achieve inferential programming mostly revolved around techniques for logical inference . Today the term is sometimes used in connection with evolutionary computation techniques that enable the computer to evolve a solution in response to a problem posed as a fitness or reward function.

Unreferenced date July 2008 Signal programming is used in the same sense as dataflow programming , and is similar to event driven programming . The word signal computing signal is used instead of the word dataflow in documentation of such Programming library libraries as Qt framework Qt , GTK and libsigc . The time instants when the signal value or dataflow value changes correspond to event computing event s in event driven programming. The signal flow of a program or a signal processing system is described graphically in a signal flow graph or a data flow diagram . Synchronous signal programming In the wider software development community the word signal is sometimes used especially to denote Synchronization computer science synchronous events sequences of samples, video frame s, etc., with constant sample rate or frame rate rather than asynchronous events, while the word event and data flow is often used for asynchronous event queue s, but this is by no means universal. Especially in telecommunications, electrical engineering and signal processing, a digital signal is a sampled representation of an analog physical entity. In telecommunications, the term Signalling telecommunications signalling means asynchronous phone call metadata information exchange, for example of telephone numbers. One application of synchronous signal programming is observer pattern . Asynchronous signal programming In databases and operational systems, a signal is a sequence or flow of messages within a message passing architecture that a software agent can subscribe on. Note that these signals are asynchronous.

Merge from In circuit serial programming date March 2012 Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 In System Programming ISP is the ability of some programmable logic device s, microcontroller s, and other programmable electronic chips to be programmed while installed in a complete system, rather than requiring the chip to be programmed prior to installing it into the system. The primary advantage of this feature is that it allows manufacturers of electronic devices to integrate programming and testing into a single production phase, rather than requiring a separate programming stage prior to assembling the system. This may allow manufacturers to program the chips in their own system s production line instead of buying preprogrammed chips from a manufacturer or distributor, making it feasible to apply code or design changes in the middle of a production run. Typically, chips supporting ISP have internal circuitry to generate any necessary programming voltage from the system s normal supply voltage, and communicate with the programmer via a serial protocol. Most programmable logic devices use a variant of the JTAG protocol for ISP, in order to facilitate easier integration with automated testing procedures. Other devices usually use proprietary protocols or protocols defined by older standards.

In computer science , programming by example PbE , also known as programming by demonstration or more generally as demonstrational programming , is an End user development technique for teaching a computer new behavior by demonstrating actions on concrete examples. The system records user actions and infers a generalized Computer program program that can be used upon new examples. PbE is intended to be easier than traditional programming , which generally requires learning and using a programming language . Many PbE systems have been developed as research prototypes, but few have found widespread real world application. More recently, PbE has proved to be a useful paradigm for creating scientific work flows. PbE is used in two independent clients for the BioMOBY protocol http www.biomedcentral.com 1471 2105 8 208 abstract Seahawk and http www.scfbm.org content 1 1 4 Gbrowse moby .

primary sources date November 2011 Minification also minimisation or minimization , in computer programming languages and especially JavaScript , is the process of removing all unnecessary characters from source code , without changing its functionality. These unnecessary characters usually include Whitespace computer science white space characters , Newline new line characters , source code comment comments , and sometimes Curly bracket programming language block delimiters , which are used to add readability to the code but are not required for it to execute. Minified source code is especially useful for interpreted language s deployed and transmitted on the Internet such as JavaScript , because it reduces the amount of data that needs to be transferred. Minified source code may also be used as a kind of Obfuscated code obfuscation . In Perl culture, aiming at extremely minified source code is the purpose of the Perl golf game. Minified source code is also very useful for HTML code. As an example, successive whitespace characters in HTML are rendered as a single space, so replacing all whitespace sequences with single spaces can considerably reduce the size of a page. Minification can be distinguished from the more general concept of data compression in that the minified source can be interpreted immediately without the need for an uncompression step the same interpreter can work with both the original as well as with the minified source.
