Write policy for maintaining coherency between cache and main memory. Write-back (also called copy back or store in) writes only to the block in local cache. Writes occur at the speed of cache memory. The modified cache block is written to main memory only when the corresponding memory address is referenced by another processor. The processor can write within a cache block multiple times and writes it to main memory only when referenced. Because every write does not go to memory, write-back reduces demands on bus bandwidth. See also cache, coherence, write-through.

An abstract logical grouping of users that is defined by the application assembler. When an application is deployed, the roles are mapped to security identities, such as principals or groups, in the operational environment.
In the J2EE server authentication service, a role is an abstract name for permission to access a particular set of resources. A role can be compared to a key that can open a lock. Many people might have a copy of the key; the lock doesn't care who you are, only that you have the right key.

When a floating-point operation underflows, return a subnormal number instead of 0. This method of handling underflow minimizes the loss of accuracy in floating-point calculations on small numbers.
Industry:Computer
An abnormal event related to the AC power supply, such as a power outage. Inconventional usage, it can refer to DC power supply systems as well.
