*normalization* : Lossy conversion of the data to its simplest known (and anticipated) form. "When implementations keep strings in a normalized form, they can be assured that equivalent strings have a unique binary representation" \[[Unicode 08|AA. Java References#Unicode 08]\].

*volatile* : Declaring a variable {{volatile}} ensures that all threads see a consistent value of the variable. Volatile guarantees atomic reads and writes of values, however, it does not guarantee the atomicity of composite operations such as variable incrementation (read-modify-write sequence). "Operations on the master copies of volatile variables on behalf of a thread are performed by the main memory in exactly the order that the thread requested." \[[JVMSpec 99|AA. Java References#JVMSpec 99]\].
