windowing
Splitting screen space
Windowing is the practice of dividing a computer screen into separate rectangular areas, each running its own program or displaying its own content.
The technique revolutionized personal computing by allowing users to see and interact with multiple applications simultaneously.
In signal processing and statistics, windowing means applying a function that tapers data at the edges to reduce artifacts: We applied Hamming windowing before the Fourier transform.
