  2. Logical block addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_block_addressing

    In logical block addressing, only one number is used to address data, and each linear base address describes a single block. The LBA scheme replaces earlier schemes which exposed the physical details of the storage device to the software of the operating system. Chief among these was the cylinder-head-sector (CHS) scheme, where blocks were addressed by means

  3. Logical address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_address

    The physical address of computer memory banks may be mapped to different logical addresses for various purposes. In a system supporting virtual memory, there may actually not be any physical memory mapped to a logical address until an access is attempted. The access triggers special functions of the operating system which reprogram the MMU to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_code

    Most instructions have one or more opcode fields that specify the basic instruction type (such as arithmetic, logical, jump, etc.), the operation (such as add or compare), and other fields that may give the type of the operand(s), the addressing mode(s), the addressing offset(s) or index, or the operand value itself (such constant operands ...

    The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures.

  6. GUID Partition Table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

    Negative LBA addresses indicate a position from the end of the volume, with −1 being the last addressable block. The GUID Partition Table ( GPT ) is a standard for the layout of partition tables of a physical computer storage device , such as a hard disk drive or solid-state drive , using universally unique identifiers (UUIDs), which are also ...

  8. Fixed-block architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-block_architecture

    The term fixed-block architecture was created by IBM in 1979 [3] to distinguish this format from its variable-length record format. Each track is divided into fixed-length blocks, consisting of an ID field and a data field. Application programs refer to blocks by relative block number, and cannot address them by cylinder, head and record.
