  • Knapsack problem
  • Pushdown automata
  • Zero-knowledge proof
  • Late binding
  • Borrow checker
  • Channel coding
  • Tail recursion
  • Camel case
  • Double float
  • Red-black trees
  • Quaternions

  • Block prediction
  • Motion compensation
  • Chroma subsampling
  • Frequency space
  • Time domain
