  2. Octuple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octuple-precision_floating...

    In computing, octuple precision is a binary floating-point-based computer number format that occupies 32 bytes (256 bits) in computer memory. This 256-bit octuple precision is for applications requiring results in higher than quadruple precision. The range greatly exceeds what is needed to describe all known physical limitations within the ...

  3. 256-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/256-bit_computing

    SHA-256 hash function. Smart contracts use 256- or 257-bit integers; 256-bit words for the Ethereum Virtual Machine. "We realize that a 257 bits byte is quite unusual, but for smart contracts it is ok to have at least 256 bits numbers. The leading VM for smart contracts, Ethereum VM, introduced this practice and other blockchain VMs followed." [8]

    8,192 bits (1,024 bytes) – RAM capacity of a ZX81 and a ZX80. 9,408 bits (1,176 bytes) – uncompressed single-channel frame length in standard MPEG audio (75 frames per second and per channel), with standard 16-bit sampling at 44,100 Hz 10 4: 15,360 bits – one screen of data displayed on an 8-bit monochrome text console (80x24) 2 14

  5. Audio file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_file_format

    Audio file icons of various formats. An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data (excluding metadata) is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression.

    It uses an internal memory state to avoid the need to perform a one-to-one mapping of individual input symbols to distinct representations that use an integer number of bits, and it clears out the internal memory only after encoding the entire string of data symbols.

    It also contained a clock for clear speech and an audio modulator to transfer the sound to the TV lead. A small adjustment screw was provided, to allow fine tuning of the audio output. The unit allocated itself the top 256 bytes of memory at switch-on and moved down the USR graphics and RAMTOP.

  8. Zero page (CP/M) - Wikipedia

    In 8-bit CP/M versions it is located in the first 256 bytes of memory, hence its name. The equivalent structure in DOS is the Program Segment Prefix (PSP), a 256-byte (page-sized) structure, which is by default located exactly before offset 0 of the program's load segment, rather than in segment 0.

    A YouTube video statistics with AVC (H.264) video codec and Opus audio format. In 2009, the HTML5 working group was split between supporters of Ogg Theora, a free video format which is thought to be unencumbered by patents, and H.264, which contains patented technology.
