What (who) is dump, monitor control - definition

Stack Environment Control Dump machine; SECD; SECD abstract machine

core dump

RECORD OF MEMORY AT THE EXACT MOMENT A COMPUTER PROGRAM CRASHES, IS TERMINATED OR EXPLICITLY REQUESTS A DUMP

Core file; Core Dump; Memory dump; Coredump; Dumpfile; Dump file; Crash dump; Vmcore; Minidump; Crashdump; Dump core; Storage dump

<programming, operating system, jargon> Common Iron Age jargon, preserved by Unix for a memory dump. The term is also used for a complete account of a human's knowledge on some subject (also brain dump), especially in a lecture or answer to an exam question. [Jargon File] (2007-05-09)

memory dump

RECORD OF MEMORY AT THE EXACT MOMENT A COMPUTER PROGRAM CRASHES, IS TERMINATED OR EXPLICITLY REQUESTS A DUMP

Core file; Core Dump; Memory dump; Coredump; Dumpfile; Dump file; Crash dump; Vmcore; Minidump; Crashdump; Dump core; Storage dump

<programming, operating system, jargon> (Or "core dump") A file on hard disk (traditionally called "core") containing a copy of the contents of a process's memory, produced when a process is aborted by certain kinds of internal error or signal. Debuggers like adb and gdb can load the dump file and display the information it contains about the state of the running program. This can be related to the program code, both object code and, in a source-level debugger, the source code. Information includes the contents of registers, the call stack and all other program data.

In computing, a core dump, memory dump, crash dump, storage dump, system dump, or ABEND dump consists of the recorded state of the working memory of a computer program at a specific time, generally when the program has crashed or otherwise terminated abnormally. In practice, other key pieces of program state are usually dumped at the same time, including the processor registers, which may include the program counter and stack pointer, memory management information, and other processor and operating system flags and information.

SECD machine

The SECD machine is a highly influential (see: § Landin's contribution) virtual machine and abstract machine intended as a target for functional programming language compilers. The letters stand for Stack, Environment, Control, Dump—the internal registers of the machine. The registers Stack, Control, and Dump point to (some realisations of) stacks, and Environment points to (some realisation of) an associative array.

The machine was the first to be specifically designed to evaluate lambda calculus expressions. It was originally described by Peter J. Landin in "The Mechanical Evaluation of Expressions" in 1964. The description published by Landin was fairly abstract, and left many implementation choices open (like an operational semantics).

Lispkit Lisp was an influential compiler based on the SECD machine, and the SECD machine has been used as the target for other systems such as Lisp/370. In 1989 researchers at the University of Calgary worked on a hardware implementation of the machine.
