SystemTechniques · 2Primitives · 17 fiber-access Clock synchronizationdistributed · medium: Estimate a clock's offset from four timestamps, filter out queueing noise, and steer the clock smoothly; NTP gets about a millisecond, PTP with hardware timestamps under a microsecond.›Dynamic bandwidth allocationsignal-processing · medium: Grant-based upstream scheduling in shared-medium networks (PON, DOCSIS) from queue reportsFair queuingnetworking · low: Deficit round robin / weighted fair queuing to share capacity among tenants or flowsToken bucketsystems · low: A bucket of up to b tokens refilled at rate r; requests spend tokens, enforcing an average rate while allowing bursts of b.›CRC32C checksumshardware-os · low: The Castagnoli CRC-32 with dedicated instructions on x86 (SSE4.2) and ARMv8. It is the standard fast integrity check for storage blocks, logs and network frames.›Ethernet switching mac learningnetworking · low: Ethernet bridging: MAC learning tables, VLAN tagging, flooding and agingMulticast igmp snoopingnetworking · low: IGMP/MLD snooping to forward multicast only to subscribed portsAEAD (AES-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305)security · low: Authenticated encryption that encrypts and detects tampering in one call; the only kind of symmetric encryption you should use.›Line coding scramblingsignal-processing · low: Scramblers and line codes (8b/10b, 64b/66b) for DC balance and clock recoveryRanging and delay equalizationsignal-processing · low: Measure round-trip delay per endpoint and equalize it so upstream bursts do not collideReed-Solomon codessignal-processing · low: Byte-oriented MDS code: n-k parity symbols correct (n-k)/2 unknown symbol errors or n-k known erasures; the workhorse for bursts, QR codes, discs and storage.›Hierarchical state machinesystems · low: Nest states so a substate inherits its parent's reactions and only overrides what differs, with ordered entry and exit actions along the path.›PID controllerrobotics · low: Drive a measured value to a setpoint with three terms on the error: proportional, integral, derivative. The default feedback loop for motors, heaters, drones and gimbals.›Phase-locked loop (digital)signal-processing · low: Feedback loop that locks a local oscillator to the phase and frequency of an input tone; the core of carrier recovery, clock recovery and GNSS tracking.›Robust statisticsstatistics · low: Location and scale estimates (median, MAD, trimmed mean, Huber M-estimator) that stay correct when a minority of the data is garbage.›Tdma schedulingsignal-processing · low: Time-slot scheduling of shared radio links among users/beamsSIMD programminghardware-os · low: Process 4-16 lanes per instruction with AVX2, AVX-512 or NEON via Rust std::arch, with runtime dispatch and a portable fallback.›Constant time codesecurity · low: Writing secret-dependent code without branches or memory lookups on secrets; constant-time compare and select+ 1 more primitives
