  2. Orders of magnitude (data) - Wikipedia

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

    1,024 bits (128 bytes) - RAM capacity of the Atari 2600: 1,288 bits (161 bytes) – approximate maximum capacity of a standard magnetic stripe card: 2 11: 2,048 bits (256 bytes) – RAM capacity of the stock Altair 8800: 2 12: 4,096 bits (512 bytes) – typical sector size, and minimum space allocation unit on computer storage volumes, with ...

  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]

  4. Rust (video game) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_(video_game)

    Rust features crafting, though initially limited until the discovery of specific items in the game's open world. To stay protected, players must build bases or join clans to improve their chance of survival. Raiding is a major aspect of Rust. Rust supports modded servers which can add additional content.

  5. Zero page (CP/M) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_page_(CP/M)

    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.

  6. AVX-512 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVX-512

    AVX-512 are 512-bit extensions to the 256-bit Advanced Vector Extensions SIMD instructions for x86 instruction set architecture (ISA) proposed by Intel in July 2013, and first implemented in the 2016 Intel Xeon Phi x200 (Knights Landing), [1] and then later in a number of AMD and other Intel CPUs (see list below).

  7. Zero page - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_page

    The zero page or base page is the block of memory at the very beginning of a computer's address space; that is, the page whose starting address is zero. The size of a page depends on the context, and the significance of zero page memory versus higher addressed memory is highly dependent on machine architecture.

  8. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    2048 bytes = 2 KiB: A CD-ROM sector; 4096 bytes = 4 KiB: A memory page in x86 (since Intel 80386) and many other architectures, also the modern Advanced Format hard disk drive sector size. 4 kB: About one page of text from a novel; 120 kB: The text of a typical pocket book; 1 MiB: A 1024×1024 pixel bitmap image with 256 colors (8 bpp color depth)

  9. Cache placement policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_placement_policies

    Consider a main memory of 16 kilobytes, which is organized as 4-byte blocks, and a direct-mapped cache of 256 bytes with a block size of 4 bytes. Because the main memory is 16kB, we need a minimum of 14 bits to uniquely represent a memory address. Since each cache block is of size 4 bytes, the total number of sets in the cache is 256/4, which ...
