  2. 128-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128-bit_computing

    In computer architecture, 128-bit integers, memory addresses, or other data units are those that are 128 bits (16 octets) wide. Also, 128-bit central processing unit (CPU) and arithmetic logic unit (ALU) architectures are those that are based on registers, address buses, or data buses of that size. General home computing and gaming utility ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    The year 2038 problem (also known as Y2038, [1] Y2K38, Y2K38 superbug or the Epochalypse[2][3]) is a time computing problem that leaves some computer systems unable to represent times after 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038. The problem exists in systems which measure Unix time —the number of seconds elapsed since the Unix epoch (00:00:00 UTC ...

  4. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple-precision...

    v. t. e. In computing, quadruple precision (or quad precision) is a binary floating-point –based computer number format that occupies 16 bytes (128 bits) with precision at least twice the 53-bit double precision. This 128-bit quadruple precision is designed not only for applications requiring results in higher than double precision, [1] but ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodore_128

    Commodore 128. The Commodore 128, also known as the C128, C-128, or C= 128 (the "C=" representing the graphical part of the logo), is the last 8-bit home computer that was commercially released by Commodore Business Machines (CBM). Introduced in January 1985 at the CES in Las Vegas, it appeared three years after its predecessor, the Commodore ...

  6. MD5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5

    The MD5 message-digest algorithm is a widely used hash function producing a 128- bit hash value. MD5 was designed by Ronald Rivest in 1991 to replace an earlier hash function MD4, [3] and was specified in 1992 as RFC 1321. MD5 can be used as a checksum to verify data integrity against unintentional corruption. Historically it was widely used as ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IA-64

    128. IA-64 (Intel Itanium architecture) is the instruction set architecture (ISA) of the discontinued Itanium family of 64-bit Intel microprocessors. The basic ISA specification originated at Hewlett-Packard (HP), and was subsequently implemented by Intel in collaboration with HP. The first Itanium processor, codenamed Merced, was released in 2001.

  9. Advanced Encryption Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard

    AES is a variant of Rijndael, with a fixed block size of 128 bits, and a key size of 128, 192, or 256 bits. By contrast, Rijndael per se is specified with block and key sizes that may be any multiple of 32 bits, with a minimum of 128 and a maximum of 256 bits. Most AES calculations are done in a particular finite field.
