Another risk is silent data corruption by undetected errors.
2.
This led to detection of many articles with undetected errors, and it serves as a good vandalism-detection tool.
3.
(2 ) However, he knows, having learned from experience, that, despite his best efforts, there are very likely undetected errors in his book.
4.
None of the privileged registers contain any truly sensitive information, but allowing general read access could easily lead to undetected errors in user programs.
5.
Otherwise, the data is assumed to be error-free ( though, with some small probability, it may contain undetected errors; this is the fundamental nature of error-checking ).
6.
While overclocking which causes no instability is not a problem, occasional undetected errors are a serious risk for applications which must be error-free, for example scientific or financial applications.
7.
If you suspect editors won't be that careful and will have undetected errors in their numbers, that would strengthen the case for deleting this template .-- talk ) 23 : 44, 9 October 2008 ( UTC)

Such codes were used in the Pioneer program of the early 1970s to Jupiter and Saturn, but gave way to shorter, Viterbi-decoded codes, usually concatenated with large Reed-Solomon error correction codes that steepen the overall bit-error-rate curve and produce extremely low residual undetected error rates.
9.
This is particularly important in commercial applications ( e . g . banking ), where an undetected error could either corrupt a database index or change data to drastically affect an account balance, and in the use of compressed data, where a small error can make an extensive dataset unusable.
10.
Contributing flaws cited by the panel included insufficient team training, undetected errors in computer models of thruster firings, failures of the navigation team to know the spacecraft's orientation in space, inadequate effort by system engineers to track and double-check all mission aspects, a tendency for communications to be too informal, failure to weigh the need for an additional engine firing and the overworking of the navigation team.
