backtracking
(foldoc) | backtracking
A scheme for solving a series of sub-problems each
of which may have multiple possible solutions and where the
solution chosen for one sub-problem may affect the possible
solutions of later sub-problems.
To solve the overall problem, we find a solution to the first
sub-problem and then attempt to recursively solve the other
sub-problems based on this first solution. If we cannot, or
we want all possible solutions, we backtrack and try the next
possible solution to the first sub-problem and so on.
Backtracking terminates when there are no more solutions to
the first sub-problem.
This is the algorithm used by logic programming languages
such as Prolog to find all possible ways of proving a
goal. An optimisation known as "intelligent backtracking"
keeps track of the dependencies between sub-problems and only
re-solves those which depend on an earlier solution which has
changed.
Backtracking is one algorithm which can be used to implement
nondeterminism. It is effectively a depth-first search of
a problem space.

bug tracking system
(foldoc) | bug tracking system
(BTS) A system for receiving and filing bugs
reported against a software project, and tracking those bugs
until they are fixed. Most major software projects have their
own BTS, the source code of which is often available for use
by other projects.
Well known BTSs include GNATS, Bugzilla, and Debbugs.

cracking
(foldoc) | cracker
cracking
An individual who attempts to gain unauthorised
access to a computer system. These individuals are often
malicious and have many means at their disposal for breaking
into a system. The term was coined ca. 1985 by hackers in
defence against journalistic misuse of "hacker". An earlier
attempt to establish "worm" in this sense around 1981--82 on
Usenet was largely a failure.
Use of both these neologisms reflects a strong revulsion
against the theft and vandalism perpetrated by cracking rings.
The neologism "cracker" in this sense may have been influenced
not so much by the term "safe-cracker" as by the non-jargon
term "cracker", which in Middle English meant an obnoxious
person (e.g., "What cracker is this same that deafs our ears /
With this abundance of superfluous breath?" -- Shakespeare's
King John, Act II, Scene I) and in modern colloquial American
English survives as a barely gentler synonym for "white
trash".
While it is expected that any real hacker will have done some
playful cracking and knows many of the basic techniques,
anyone past larval stage is expected to have outgrown the
desire to do so except for immediate practical reasons (for
example, if it's necessary to get around some security in
order to get some work done).
Contrary to widespread myth, cracking does not usually involve
some mysterious leap of hackerly brilliance, but rather
persistence and the dogged repetition of a handful of fairly
well-known tricks that exploit common weaknesses in the
security of target systems. Accordingly, most crackers are
only mediocre hackers.
Thus, there is far less overlap between hackerdom and
crackerdom than the mundane reader misled by
sensationalistic journalism might expect. Crackers tend to
gather in small, tight-knit, very secretive groups that have
little overlap with the huge, open hacker poly-culture; though
crackers often like to describe *themselves* as hackers, most
true hackers consider them a separate and lower form of life,
little better than virus writers. Ethical considerations
aside, hackers figure that anyone who can't imagine a more
interesting way to play with their computers than breaking
into someone else's has to be pretty losing.

hacker}, hacker ethic, phreaking, samurai, {Trojan
horse}.

intelligent backtracking
(foldoc) | intelligent backtracking
An improved backtracking algorithm for
Prolog interpreters, which records the point at which each
logic variable becomes bound and, when a given set of
bindings leads to failure, ignores any choice point which
does not bind any of those variables. No choice from such a
choice point can succeed since it does not change the bindings
which caused the failure.

tracking
(foldoc) | tracking
The horizontal spacing between characters in a line of
text. Tracking is set when a font is designed but can often
be altered in order to change the appearance of the text or for
special effects. It applies to both proportional fonts and
monospaced fonts.
Tracking should not be confused with kerning which deals with
the spacing between certain pairs of characters in a proportional
font.

cracking
(jargon) | cracking
n.
[very common] The act of breaking into a computer system; what a cracker
does. Contrary to widespread myth, this does not usually involve some
mysterious leap of hackerly brilliance, but rather persistence and the
dogged repetition of a handful of fairly well-known tricks that exploit
common weaknesses in the security of target systems. Accordingly, most
crackers are incompetent as hackers. This entry used to say 'mediocre', but
the spread of rootkit and other automated cracking has depressed the
average level of skill among crackers.
