  2. Overhead (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_(computing)

    It is thus similar to overhead in organizations. Computer system overhead shows up as slower processing, less memory, less storage capacity, less network bandwidth, or bigger latency than would be expected from reading the system specifications. [1] It is a special case of engineering overhead. Overhead can be a deciding factor in software ...

  3. Virtual memory compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory_compression

    By reducing the I/O activity caused by paging requests, virtual memory compression can produce overall performance improvements. The degree of performance improvement depends on a variety of factors, including the availability of any compression co-processors, spare bandwidth on the CPU, speed of the I/O channel, speed of the physical memory, and the compressibility of the physical memory ...

    Top Spin 2 is a 2006 tennis video game developed by Indie Built, MENT, and Aspyr and originally published by 2K and Superscape. It is the sequel to Top Spin and is followed by Top Spin 3 . Development

  5. QEMM - Wikipedia

    However, QEMM maximum RAM is a shared 256MB XMS/256MB EMS, which is less than what DOS 7.10 and Windows 95/98 support without QEMM. MS-DOS 7.10 provides 624K free conventional memory and up to 1GB XMS/32MB EMS; assuming unaltered MS-DOS, using HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.EXE without any 3rd party utilities.

  6. Memory footprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_footprint

    During the 1990s, computer memory became cheaper and programs with larger memory footprints became commonplace. This trend has been mostly due to the widespread use of computer software, from large enterprise-wide applications that consume vast amounts of memory (such as databases), to memory intensive multimedia authoring and editing software.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDP-10

    Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC)'s PDP-10, later marketed as the DECsystem-10, is a mainframe computer family [1] manufactured beginning in 1966 [2] and discontinued in 1983. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] 1970s models and beyond were marketed under the DECsystem-10 name, especially as the TOPS-10 operating system became widely used.

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

    Top Spin is a simulation tennis game that recreates single and double tennis matches and exhibition tournaments, in which players compete against a computer or other players in either local or online matches. Players can perform several tennis shots using different controls for flat, top spin, slice, and lob swings.

  9. Memory ordering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_ordering

    Memory ordering is the order of accesses to computer memory by a CPU. Memory ordering depends on both the order of the instructions generated by the compiler at compile time and the execution order of the CPU at runtime .
