Barrier operation

A barrier operation refers to a process used in various fields, such as finance, military, and technology, where certain thresholds or conditions must be met before a specific action occurs. For instance, in finance, a barrier option is a type of financial derivative that becomes active or invalidated based on whether an asset's price crosses a predetermined level. In broader contexts, it can involve actions that are initiated or halted due to the breach of set limits, ensuring that operations only proceed under specific, controlled circumstances to manage risk or maintain security.
