alias (foldoc) | alias
1. A name, usually short and easy to
remember and type, that is translated into another name or
string, usually long and difficult to remember or type. Most
command interpreters (e.g. Unix's csh) allow the user to
define aliases for commands, e.g. "alias l ls -al". These are
loaded into memory when the interpreter starts and are
expanded without needing to refer to any file.
2. One of several alternative hostnames with
the same Internet address. E.g. in the Unix hosts
database (/etc/hosts or NIS map) the first field on a line
is the Internet address, the next is the official hostname
(the "canonical name" or "CNAME"), and any others are
aliases.
Hostname aliases often indicate that the host with that alias
provides a particular network service such as archie,
finger, FTP, or web. The assignment of
services to computers can then be changed simply by moving an
alias (e.g. www.doc.ic.ac.uk) from one Internet address to
another, without the clients needing to be aware of the
change.
3. The name used by Apple computer, Inc. for
symbolic links when they added them to the System 7
operating system in 1991.
(1997-10-22)
4. Two names (identifiers), usually of local
or global variables, that refer to the same resource
(memory location) are said to be aliased. Although names
introduced in programming languages are typically mapped to
different memory locations, aliasing can be introduced by
the use of address arithmetic and pointers or
language-specific features, like C++ references.
Statically deciding (e.g. via a program analysis executed by a
sophisticated compiler) which locations of a program will be
aliased at run time is an undecidable problem.

aliasing bug (foldoc) | stale pointer bug
aliasing bug
(Or "aliasing bug") A class of subtle
programming errors that can arise in code that does {dynamic
allocation}, especially via malloc or equivalent.
If several pointers address (are "aliases for") a given hunk
of storage, it may happen that the storage is freed or
reallocated (and thus moved) through one alias and then
referenced through another, which may lead to subtle (and
possibly intermittent) lossage depending on the state and the
allocation history of the malloc arena. This bug can be
avoided by never creating aliases for allocated memory, or by
use of a higher-level language, such as Lisp, which
employs a garbage collector.
The term "aliasing bug" is nowadays associated with C
programming, it was already in use in a very similar sense in
the ALGOL 60 and Fortran communities in the 1960s.
See also smash the stack, fandango on core, memory leak,
memory smash, spam.

anti-aliasing (foldoc) | anti-aliasing
A technique used on a grey-scale or colour
bitmap display to make diagonal edges appear smoother by
setting pixels near the edge to intermediate colours
according to where the edge crosses them.
The most common example is black characters on a white
background. Without anti-aliasing, diagonal edges appear
jagged, like staircases, which may be noticeable on a low
resolution display. If the display can show intermediate
greys then anti-aliasing can be applied. A pixel will be
black if it is completely within the black area, or white if
it is completely outside the black area, or an intermediate
shade of grey according to the proportions of it which overlap
the black and white areas. The technique works similarly with
other foreground and background colours.
"Aliasing" refers to the fact that many points (which would
differ in the real image) are mapped or "aliased" to the same
pixel (with a single value) in the digital representation.

aliasing bug (jargon) | aliasing bug
n.
A class of subtle programming errors that can arise in code that does
dynamic allocation, esp. via malloc(3) or equivalent. If several pointers
address (are aliases for) a given hunk of storage, it may happen that the
storage is freed or reallocated (and thus moved) through one alias and then
referenced through another, which may lead to subtle (and possibly
intermittent) lossage depending on the state and the allocation history of
the malloc arena. Avoidable by use of allocation strategies that never
alias allocated core, or by use of higher-level languages, such as LISP,
which employ a garbage collector (see GC). Also called a {stale pointer
bug}. See also precedence lossage, smash the stack, fandango on core,
memory leak, memory smash, overrun screw, spam.
Historical note: Though this term is nowadays associated with C
programming, it was already in use in a very similar sense in the Algol-60
and FORTRAN communities in the 1960s.
