  2. Interrupt latency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_latency

    Minimum interrupt latency is largely determined by the interrupt controller circuit and its configuration. They can also affect the jitter in the interrupt latency, which can drastically affect the real-time schedulability of the system. The Intel APIC architecture is well known for producing a huge amount of interrupt latency jitter. [citation ...

  3. Bufferbloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bufferbloat

    Bufferbloat is the undesirable latency that comes from a router or other network equipment buffering too many data packets.Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput.

  4. Interrupt coalescing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_coalescing

    Interrupt coalescing, also known as interrupt moderation, [1] is a technique in which events which would normally trigger a hardware interrupt are held back, either until a certain amount of work is pending, or a timeout timer triggers. Used correctly, this technique can reduce interrupt load by up to an order of magnitude, while only incurring ...

  5. Hardware acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_acceleration

    A cryptographic accelerator card allows cryptographic operations to be performed at a faster rate.. Hardware acceleration is the use of computer hardware designed to perform specific functions more efficiently when compared to software running on a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU).

  6. Display Stream Compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_Stream_Compression

    DSC version 1.0 was released on 10 March 2014, but was soon deprecated by DSC version 1.1 released on 1 August 2014. The DSC standard supports up to a 3∶1 compression ratio (reducing the data stream to 8 bits per pixel) with constant or variable bit rate, RGB or Y′C B C R 4:4:4 , 4:2:2, or 4:2:0 color format, and color depth of 6, 8, 10, or ...

  7. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

    In music production, multiband compressors are primarily an audio mastering tool, but their inclusion in digital audio workstation plug-in sets is increasing their use among mix engineers. The TC Electronic Finalizer included a three band compressor and was a popular audio mastering tool around year 2000.

  8. PCI configuration space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_configuration_space

    One of the major improvements the PCI Local Bus had over other I/O architectures was its configuration mechanism. In addition to the normal memory-mapped and I/O port spaces, each device function on the bus has a configuration space, which is 256 bytes long, addressable by knowing the eight-bit PCI bus, five-bit device, and three-bit function numbers for the device (commonly referred to as the ...

  9. Input lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_lag

    Input lag or input latency is the amount of time that passes between sending an electrical signal and the occurrence of a corresponding action.. In video games the term is often used to describe any latency between input and the game engine, monitor, or any other part of the signal chain reacting to that input, though all contributions of input lag are cumulative.
