Purpose Traditionally, the X Window System has lagged behind other windowing systems in adding purely eye candy or aesthetic features, such as window translucency . This has encouraged X client client Software developer developer s to develop Hack technology slang hacks cunning workarounds to overcome this limitation. This pseudo transparency, so called as the background pixmap of the root window is visible analogous to computer wallpaper desktop wallpaper rather than any obscured windows, allows users to make windows look less imposing such as Terminal emulator s, which usually comprise large chunks of text , and to integrate the appearance of windows with their desktop themes. Implementation There are three common methods for achieving pseudo transparency using Xlib , each with its own advantages and drawbacks. Parental relative The parental relative method uses code XSetWindowBackgroundPixmap code to inherit the parent window s background image. Unfortunately, using this method, the X server permits very few operations to be performed on the background pixmap such as XOR , preventing clients from implementing any sort of advanced image filtering. XROOTPMAP ID and ESETROOT PMAP ID properties These properties are used to inform the window where it can find the pixmap used on the root window. Using this information, a client can paint a section of the image corresponding to the size and position of the window onto its background, achieving the effect of transparency.

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 .

In general topology , the pseudo arc is the simplest nondegenerate Indecomposable continuum hereditarily indecomposable continuum topology continuum . Pseudo arc is an arc like homogeneous continuum. R.H. Bing proved that, in a certain well defined sense, most continua in R sup n sup , n &ge 2, are homeomorphic to the pseudo arc. History In 1920, Bronis aw Knaster and Kazimierz Kuratowski asked whether a nondegenerate homogeneous continuum in the Euclidean plane R sup 2 sup must be a Jordan curve . In 1921, Stefan Mazurkiewicz asked whether a nondegenerate continuum in R sup 2 sup that is homeomorphic to each of its nondegenerate subcontinua must be an arc. In 1922, Knaster described the first example of a homogeneous hereditarily indecomposable continuum K . In 1948, R.H.

In constructivism mathematics constructive mathematics , a pseudo order is a constructive generalisation of a linear order to the continuous case. The usual trichotomy mathematics trichotomy law does not hold in the constructive continuum because of its indecomposability , so this condition is weakened. A pseudo order is a binary relation satisfying the following conditions It is not possible for two elements to each be less than the other. That is, math forall x,y neg x y wedge y x math . For all mvar x , mvar y , and mvar z , if math x y then either math x z or math z y . That is, math forall x,y,z x y to x z vee z y math . Every two elements for which neither one is less than the other must be equal. That is, math forall x,y neg x y vee y x to x y math This first condition is simply antisymmetric relation antisymmetry . It follows from the first two conditions that a pseudo order is transitive relation transitive . The second condition is often called co transitivity or comparison and is the constructive substitute for trichotomy. In general, given two elements of a pseudo ordered set, it is not always the case that either one is less than the other or else they are equal, but given any nontrivial interval, any element is either above the lower bound, or below the upper bound. The third condition is often taken as the definition of equality. The natural apartness relation on a pseudo ordered set is given by math x y leftrightarrow x y vee y x math and equality is defined by the negation of apartness. The negation of the pseudo order is a partial order which is close to a total order if x y is defined as the negation of y x , then we have math neg neg x le y wedge neg y le x . math Using classical logic one would then conclude that x y or y x , so it would be a total order. However, this inference is not valid in the constructive case. The prototypical pseudo order is that of the real numbers one real number is less than another if there exists one can construct a rational ... more details
