A drawing checker is an algorithm that receives as input a geometric structure and a predicate stating a property that should hold for the structure. The task of the checker is to verify whether the structure satisfies or not the given property. … Checking is especially relevant in the graph drawing context. 1, record 1, English, - drawing%20checker

Au niveau le plus bas, il s'agit de dessiner les transistors pour créer des portes logiques, en respectant les règles de dessin imposées par la technologie (succession de photolithogravures). Les outils utilisés sont des éditeurs graphiques, ou des éditeurs symboliques (qui font des tassements automatiques), des vérificateurs de dessins (qui contrôlent que les règles technologiques sont respectées), des extracteurs (qui déduisent la fonction logique à partir du dessin), des simulateurs électriques (qui utilisent des modèles physiques des transistors pour simuler et vérifier le fonctionnement logique). 1, record 1, French, - v%C3%A9rificateur%20de%20dessins

Substitution errors can then only occur if two or more separate printing defects occur within one character. Codes, which are not self-checking usually, have a check character added to the encoded data. Check characters can be added to self-checking symbols to further enhance data integrity. 1, record 2, English, - self%2Dchecking

If one considers c(b) the lowest-order nibble, then the operand word is always a multiple of 15. The checking algorithm then merely computes a residue module 15 of the received word, and if it nonzero, then an error has occurred. 1, record 3, English, - checking%20algorithm
