In chemistry, Weak bonds are those forces of attraction that, do not take a large amount of energy to break.

For example, hydrogen bonds are broken by energies in the order of 4 - 5 kcal/mol.

Ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions are considered weak bonds.

Weak bonds are transient and easily reversible.

Placement algorithms determine where in available real-memory to load a program. Common methods are first-fit, next-fit, best-fit. Replacement algorithms are used when memory is full, and one process (or part of a process) needs to be swapped out to accommodate a new program. The replacement algorithm determines which are the partitions to be swapped out.

The process that allows a network to self-repair networks problems. The stations on the network notify the other stations on the ring when they are not receiving the transmissions. Beaconing is used in Token ring and FDDI networks.
