  2. Session fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_fixation

    Store a session variable containing a time stamp of the last access made by that SID. When that SID is used again, compare the current timestamp with the one stored in the session. If the difference is greater than a predefined number, say 5 minutes, destroy the session. Otherwise, update the session variable with the current timestamp.

  3. Session poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_poisoning

    Session poisoning (also referred to as "session data pollution" and "session modification") is a method to exploit insufficient input validation within a server application. Typically a server application that is vulnerable to this type of exploit will copy user input into session variables. The underlying vulnerability is a state management ...

  4. Observational methods in psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observational_Methods_in...

    Observational methods in psychological research entail the observation and description of a subject's behavior. Researchers utilizing the observational method can exert varying amounts of control over the environment in which the observation takes place. This makes observational research a sort of middle ground between the highly controlled ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_(computer_science)

    Session (computer science) In computer science and networking in particular, a session is a time-delimited two-way link, a practical (relatively high) layer in the TCP/IP protocol enabling interactive expression and information exchange between two or more communication devices or ends – be they computers, automated systems, or live active ...

  6. Peterson's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peterson's_algorithm

    The algorithm uses two variables: flag and turn. A flag[n] value of true indicates that the process n wants to enter the critical section. Entrance to the critical section is granted for process P0 if P1 does not want to enter its critical section or if P1 has given priority to P0 by setting turn to 0. Peterson's algorithm

  7. Cross-sectional data - Wikipedia

    User research focuses on understanding user behaviors, needs and motivations through interviews, surveys, usability evaluations and other forms of feedback methodologies. [1] It is used to understand how people interact with products and evaluate whether design solutions meet their needs. [2] This field of research aims at improving the user ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Readers–writers_problem

    Readers–writers problem. In computer science, the readers–writers problems are examples of a common computing problem in concurrency. [1] There are at least three variations of the problems, which deal with situations in which many concurrent threads of execution try to access the same shared resource at one time.
