  2. Byte addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_addressing

    An eight-bit processor like the Intel 8008 addresses eight bits, but as this is the full width of the accumulator and other registers, this could be considered either byte-addressable or word-addressable. 32-bit x86 processors, which address memory in 8-bit units but have 32-bit general-purpose registers and can operate on 32-bit items with a ...

  3. Java performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_performance

    Java memory use is much higher than C++'s memory use because: There is an overhead of 8 bytes for each object and 12 bytes for each array [61] in Java. If the size of an object is not a multiple of 8 bytes, it is rounded up to next multiple of 8. This means an object holding one byte field occupies 16 bytes and needs a 4-byte reference.

  4. List of Java bytecode instructions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Java_bytecode...

    This is a list of the instructions that make up the Java bytecode, an abstract machine language that is ultimately executed by the Java virtual machine. [1] The Java bytecode is generated from languages running on the Java Platform, most notably the Java programming language.

  5. Byte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte

    The byte is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits.Historically, the byte was the number of bits used to encode a single character of text in a computer [1] [2] and for this reason it is the smallest addressable unit of memory in many computer architectures.

  6. Orders of magnitude (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(data)

    34,359,738,368 bits (4 gibibytes) – maximum addressable memory for the Motorola 68020 (1984) and Intel 80386 (1985), also the volume size limit for the FAT16B file system (with 64 KiB clusters) as well as the maximum file size (4 GiB-1) in MS-DOS 7.1-8.0. 3.76 × 10 10 bits (4.7 gigabytes) – capacity of a single-layer, single-sided DVD: 2 36

  7. Data structure alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment

    The alternate wording b-bit aligned designates a b/8 byte aligned address (ex. 64-bit aligned is 8 bytes aligned). A memory access is said to be aligned when the data being accessed is n bytes long and the datum address is n-byte aligned. When a memory access is not aligned, it is said to be misaligned. Note that by definition byte memory ...

  8. Word addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_addressing

    If that memory is arranged in a byte-addressable flat address space using 8-bit bytes, then there are 65,536 (2 16) valid addresses, from 0 to 65,535, each denoting an independent 8 bits of memory. If instead it is arranged in a word-addressable flat address space using 32-bit words, then there are 16,384 (2 14 ) valid addresses, from 0 to ...

  9. 128-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128-bit_computing

    A processor with 128-bit byte addressing could directly address up to 2 128 (over 3.40 × 10 38) bytes, which would greatly exceed the total data captured, created, or replicated on Earth as of 2018, which has been estimated to be around 33 zettabytes (over 2 74 bytes). [1] A 128-bit register can store 2 128 (over 3.40 × 10 38) different
