Pseudo LRU usually refers two cache replacement algorithms tree PLRU and bit PLRU. Tree PLRU, is an efficient algorithm to find an item that most likely has not been accessed very recently, given a set of items and a sequence of access events to the items. This technique is used in the CPU cache of the Intel 486 and in many processors in the Power Architecture formerly PowerPC family, such as Freescale Freescale s PowerPC G4 used by Apple Computer . The algorithm works as follows consider a binary search tree for the items in question. Each node of the tree has a one bit flag denoting go left to find a pseudo LRU element or go right to find a pseudo LRU element . To find a pseudo LRU element, traverse the tree according to the values of the flags. To update the tree with an access to an item N, traverse the tree to find N and, during the traversal, set the node flags to denote the direction that is opposite to the direction taken. Bit PLRU stores one status bit for each cache line. We call these bits MRU bits. Every access to a line sets its MRU bit to 1, indicating that the line was recently used. Whenever the last remaining 0 bit of a sets status bits is set to 1, all other bits are reset to 0. At cache misses, the line with lowest index whose MRU bit is 0 is replaced.

Definitions Alexander Agassiz gave the term pseudo atoll to any ring shaped reef s not formed as a result of subsidence . ref Agassiz, A., A reconnaissance of the Bahamas and elevated reefs of Cuba. Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology 26 1 203. 1894. ref while Norman D. Newell and J. Keith Rigby ref J.

Pub. 5, p. 1572. ref and We conclude that almost atoll should be retained as a descriptive term as defined by Davis and Tayama, and that the use of near atoll as a synonym be abandoned. The value of terms such as semi atoll and pseudo atoll needs close examination and more rigorous definition before being generally accepted. H. Mergner yet states that micro atolls classify as pseudo atolls. Professor David R. Stoddart of University of California Berkeley Berkeley states an almost atoll is an atoll with a central island of left over residue. Usage Dr. Edward J.

Aristotelianism Pseudo Aristotle is a general Wiktionary cognomen cognomen for authors of philosophical or medical treatises who attributed their work to the Greek philosophy Greek philosopher Aristotle , or whose work was later attributed to him by others. Aristotle had produced so many works on such a variety of subjects that it was possible for writers in many different contexts notably Middle Ages medieval Europeans , North Africa ns and Arab s to write a work and ascribe it to Aristotle. Attaching his name to such a work guaranteed it a certain amount of respect and acceptance, since Aristotle was regarded as one of most authoritative ancient writers for the learned men of both Christendom Christian Europe and the Islamic Golden Age Muslim Arab lands . It is generally not clear whether the attribution to Aristotle of a later work was done by its own author or by others who sought to popularize such works by using his name. Notable Pseudo Aristotles included the 2nd century North African writer Apuleius of Madauros, the author of the Greek language Greek Cosmography cosmographic work On the Universe De Mundo , as well as the medieval Islamic science Muslim author of the Arabic geological work, De Proprietatibus Elementorum . ref Jerome B.

Pseudo Tertullian is the scholarly name for the unknown author of Adversus Omnes Haereses , an appendix to the work De praescriptionem haereticorum of Tertullian . It lists 32 heresies , and there is consensus that this work is not by Tertullian himself. ref Reinhard Pummer, Early Christian Authors on Samaritans and Samaritanism 2002 , p. 32. ref A traditional theory is that the work is a Latin translation of a Greek original, a lost work Syntagma written by Hippolytus, c. 220. Recent scholarship, agreeing with a theory of Richard Adelbert Lipsius , suggests that this work Syntagma was the common source for Philastrius and the Panarion of Epiphanius of Salamis Epiphanius , also ref R. van den Broek, Cis van Heertum, From Poimandres to Jacob B hme Gnosis, Hermetism and the Christian Tradition 2000 , p. 262. ref . The name Pseudo Tertullian is also applied to the author of a poem written against Marcion .

It coincides with the regular determinant when the matrix is invertible matrix non singular . Definition The pseudo determinant of a square n by n matrix A may be defined as math mathbf A lim alpha to 0 frac mathbf A alpha mathbf I alpha n operatorname rank mathbf A math where A denotes the usual determinant , I denotes the identity matrix and rank A denotes the rank linear algebra rank of A . definition of pseudo determinant using Vahlen Matrix The Vahlen matrix of a conformal transformation, the Mobius transformation i.e. math ax b cx d 1 math for math a,b,c,d in mathcal G p,q math is defined as math f begin bmatrix a & b c & d end bmatrix math . By the pseudo determinant of the Vahlen matrix for the conformal transformation, we mean math pdet begin bmatrix a & b c& d end bmatrix ad dagger bc dagger math If math pdet f 0 math , the transformation is sense preserving rotation whereas if the math pdet f 0 math , the transformation is sense preserving reflection . Computation for positive semi definite case If math A math is positive definite matrix positive semi definite , then the singular value decomposition singular values and eigendecomposition matrix eigenvalues of math A math coincide. In this case, if the singular value decomposition SVD is available, then math mathbf A math may be computed as the product of the non zero singular values. If all singular values are zero, then the pseudo ... and their pseudo determinants, with the matrix of higher rank being counted as largest and the pseudo ... ref Thus pseudo determinants are sometime presented in the outputs of statistical programs in cases ... more details
