  2. Amdahl's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl's_law

    An implication of Amdahl's law is that to speed up real applications which have both serial and parallel portions, heterogeneous computing techniques are required. [12] There are novel speedup and energy consumption models based on a more general representation of heterogeneity, referred to as the normal form heterogeneity, that support a wide ...

  3. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Limiting the speed of data sent by a data originator (a client computer or a server computer) is much more efficient than limiting the speed in an intermediate network device between client and server because while in the first case usually no network packets are lost, in the second case network packets can be lost / discarded whenever ingoing data speed overcomes the bandwidth limit or the ...

  4. Processor power dissipation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_power_dissipation

    The dynamic power consumed by a CPU is approximately proportional to the CPU frequency, and to the square of the CPU voltage: [5] = where C is the switched load capacitance, f is frequency, V is voltage. [6] When logic gates toggle, some transistors inside may change states.

  5. LINPACK benchmarks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LINPACK_benchmarks

    The aim is to approximate how fast a computer will perform when solving real problems. It is a simplification, since no single computational task can reflect the overall performance of a computer system. Nevertheless, the LINPACK benchmark performance can provide a good correction over the peak performance provided by the manufacturer.

  6. Multi-channel memory architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-channel_memory...

    Data is spread amongst the modules in an alternating pattern, potentially tripling available memory bandwidth for the same amount of data, as opposed to storing it all on one module. The architecture can only be used when all three, or a multiple of three, memory modules are identical in capacity and speed, and are placed in three-channel slots.

  7. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

    This heatsink is designed with the cooling capacity matching the CPU’s TDP. Thermal Design Power (TDP), also known as thermal design point, is the maximum amount of heat that a computer component (like a CPU, GPU or system on a chip) can generate and that its cooling system is designed to dissipate during normal operation.

    Since putting into place this new limit, globally there has been a 70% reduction in the number of highly forwarded messages sent on WhatsApp,” a WhatsApp spokesperson told TechCrunch in a ...

  9. Intel Core (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core_(microarchitecture)

    Optimally, the memory bandwidth afforded should match the bandwidth of the FSB, that is to say that a CPU with a 533 MT/s rated bus speed should be paired with RAM matching the same rated speed, for example DDR2 533, or PC2-4200. A common myth [citation needed] is that installing interleaved RAM will offer double the bandwidth. However, at most ...
