  2. Bitstream - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitstream

    When bytes are generated faster than the destination can use them and the producer is a software algorithm, the system pauses it with the same process synchronization techniques. When the producer supports flow control , the system only sends the ready signal when the consumer is ready for the next byte.

  3. Video coding format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_coding_format

    A video coding format [a] (or sometimes video compression format) is a content representation format of digital video content, such as in a data file or bitstream. It typically uses a standardized video compression algorithm, most commonly based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and motion compensation .

  4. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    William Kahan, primary architect of the original IEEE 754 floating-point standard noted, "For now the 10-byte Extended format is a tolerable compromise between the value of extra-precise arithmetic and the price of implementing it to run fast; very soon two more bytes of precision will become tolerable, and ultimately a 16-byte format ...

  5. Data compression - Wikipedia

    It has since been applied in various other designs including H.263, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC and HEVC for video coding. [11] Archive software typically has the ability to adjust the "dictionary size", where a larger size demands more random-access memory during compression and decompression, but compresses stronger, especially on repeating patterns in ...

    5 bits – the size of code points in the Baudot code, used in telex communication (a.k.a. pentad) 6 bits – the size of code points in Univac Fieldata, in IBM "BCD" format, and in Braille. Enough to uniquely identify one codon of genetic code. The size of code points in Base64; thus, often the entropy per character in a randomly-generated ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_quantity

    Base-128 compression is known by many names – VB (Variable Byte), VByte, Varint, VInt, EncInt etc. [1] A variable-length quantity (VLQ) was defined for use in the standard MIDI file format [2] to save additional space for a resource-constrained system, and is also used in the later Extensible Music Format (XMF).

  9. Extended precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_precision

    In a few cases the implementation was merely a software-based change in the floating-point data format, but in most cases extended precision was implemented in hardware, either built into the central processor itself, or more often, built into the hardware of an optional, attached processor called a "floating-point unit" (FPU) or "floating ...
