I've seen a few different circuits (a) (b) (c) (d) described as "an O-ring circuit" or "an optimal O-ring circuit".

What does the "O" and the "ring" refer to in such circuits?

Important information to a question must be in the question itself. That also allows distilling down to the relevant information. I did try to look at your "a" link, but that was a whole web page with lots of babble and multiple diagrams. Put at least one example from each of your groups here in the question. The others can be links since they are then just adjunct information. Ping me when this is done so that I can re-open the question.
