  2. Project Denver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Denver

    Project Denver is the codename of a central processing unit designed by Nvidia that implements the ARMv8-A 64/32-bit instruction sets using a combination of simple hardware decoder and software-based binary translation (dynamic recompilation) where "Denver's binary translation layer runs in software, at a lower level than the operating system, and stores commonly accessed, already optimized ...

  3. MemTest86 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memtest86

    Detections of faulty memory are displayed prominently. The application shows which memory locations failed and which patterns made them fail. There are two development streams of MemTest86(+). The original is simply known as MemTest86. The other, known as Memtest86+, is a development fork of the original MemTest86. Their on-screen appearance ...

  4. Serial presence detect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_presence_detect

    In computing, serial presence detect (SPD) is a standardized way to automatically access information about a memory module.Earlier 72-pin SIMMs included five pins that provided five bits of parallel presence detect (PPD) data, but the 168-pin DIMM standard changed to a serial presence detect to encode more information.

  5. Valgrind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valgrind

    Valgrind (/ ˈ v æ l ɡ r ɪ n d /) [6] is a programming tool for memory debugging, memory leak detection, and profiling.. Valgrind was originally designed to be a freely licensed memory debugging tool for Linux on x86, but has since evolved to become a generic framework for creating dynamic analysis tools such as checkers and profilers.

  6. 64-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit_computing

    The term 64-bit also describes a generation of computers in which 64-bit processors are the norm. 64 bits is a word size that defines certain classes of computer architecture, buses, memory, and CPUs and, by extension, the software that runs on them. 64-bit CPUs have been used in supercomputers since the 1970s (Cray-1, 1975) and in reduced ...

  7. Intel microcode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Microcode

    In the mid-1990s, a facility for supplying new microcode was initially referred to as the Pentium Pro BIOS Update Feature. [18] [19] It was intended that user-mode applications should make a BIOS interrupt call to supply a new "BIOS Update Data Block", which the BIOS would partially validate and save to nonvolatile BIOS memory; this could be supplied to the installed processors on next boot.

    Broadcom also published application and library source code on a royalty-free basis under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL), version 2.1 Crystal HD can be accessed through the Video Acceleration API interface via an experimental driver (however, it cannot be recovered from the linked archive).

  9. Sum-addressed decoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum-addressed_decoder

    In CPU design, the use of a sum-addressed decoder (SAD) or sum-addressed memory (SAM) decoder is a method of reducing the latency of the CPU cache access and address calculation (base + offset). This is achieved by fusing the address generation sum operation with the decode operation in the cache SRAM .
