  Insertion sort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Insertion sort is a simple sort algorithm in which the sorted array (or list) is built one entry at a time.
In abstract terms, each iteration of an insertion sort removes an element from the input data, inserting it at the correct position in the already sorted list, until no elements are left in the input.
However, insertion sort's inner loop is very fast, which often makes it one of the fastest algorithms for sorting small numbers of elements, typically less than 10 or so.

 Insertion Sort   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Although it has the same complexity, the insertion sort is a little over twice as efficient as the bubble sort.
At the same time, the insertion sort is over twice as fast as the bubble sort and almost 40% faster than the selection sort.
A sample C program that demonstrates the use of the insertion sort may be downloaded here.

 Insertion Sort   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Insertion sort maintains a sorted front section of the array [1..i-1].
The way that elements of the array are `moved up' in insertion sort, a[j+1]:=a[j], involves just one assignment against three for an exchange in selection sort.
If you are sorting non-numeric data, there might not be a convenient `-maximum value' to use as a sentinel and you will have to ensure that the inner loop terminates, in the case that `ai' is the least element in the data, by some other means.

 Insertion gain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In telecommunication, insertion gain is the gain resulting from the insertion of a device in a transmission line, expressed as the ratio of the signal power delivered to that part of the line following the device to the signal power delivered to that same part before insertion.
Note 1: If the resulting number is less than unity, an "insertion loss" is indicated.
Note 2: Insertion gain is usually expressed in dB.

 Chapter 3.1: Insertion Technique, Population Reports, Series B, Number 6
The objective of IUD insertion is to place the IUD correctly while minimizing the woman's discomfort and the risk of complications.
Instead, the provider may ask the client to return during her menstrual period, when insertion may be easier, or refer her to a more experienced provider, who may use dilators, with or without paracervical anesthesia, if the cervical canal is narrow.
Insertion failures are rare—2 to 8 per 1,000 attempted insertions—and are usually due to excessive pain or to the larger size of inserter used with some types of IUDs (63).

Late Insertion refers to the hypothesis that the phonological expression of syntactic terminals is in all cases provided in the mapping to Phonological Form (PF).
The insertion of zero in the specific environment bleeds the insertion of -e because, under normal circumstances, only a single Vocabulary Item may be inserted into a morpheme.
When certain features are deleted, the insertion of Vocabulary items requiring those features for insertion cannot occur, and a less specified item will be inserted instead.

 Mars Odyssey: The Mission
"Mars Orbit insertion" is the point in the mission when the Odyssey spacecraft arrives just short of Mars, fires an onboard rocket to slow its speed relative to the planet, and is captured into a long looping orbit.
The Mars orbit insertion "burn," as it is called, is the sole purpose of Odyssey's main engine.
One of the first steps in the orbit insertion process is to turn off "fault protection" software onboard Odyssey.

 Insertion, Evasion, and Denial of Service: Eluding Network Intrusion Detection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
We call this an ``insertion'' attack, and conditions that lend themselves to insertion attacks are the most prevalent vulnerabilities in the intrusion detection systems we tested.
Insertion attacks disrupt stream reassembly by adding packets to the stream that would cause it to be reassembled differently on the end-system---if the end system accepted the disruptive packets.
An insertion or evasion problem occurring within the IP processing of an IDS affects all higher levels of processing as well; a problem that allows an attacker to insert an arbitrary IP packet allows that attacker, by extension, to insert an arbitrary (well-formed) UDP or ICMP packet.

 Ad insertion
Ad insertion systems are designed to work with your radio station as is for the most part, so you don't have to dedicate any studio resources to programming a separate Internet feed.
In this case, the ad insertion system is typically a piece of hardware located at the radio station that takes a feed of the station audio and receives control information from the station automation software.
Some ad insertion systems have the listener download additional software that does local ad caching, or uses mechanisms for pre-buffering ads at the server to minimize delays switching between the files and the live stream.

Even the optimization of using a binary search does not help us here, because the deciding factor in this case is the insertion.
A similar algorithm to the insertion sort is the selection sort, which requires fewer data movements than the insertion sort, but requires more comparisons.

For a generic insertion of CO into a metal alkyl bond, one can envision two mechanistic extremes, one in which the methyl migrates to the carbonyl and a second in which the carbonyl moves and inserts into the metal-methyl bond.
Insertion of CO into a metal hydride is also exceedingly rare.
CO insertions can also be induced by oxidation of the metal center.
