  2. Offset binary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offset_binary

    Offset binary, [1] also referred to as excess-K, [1] excess-N, excess-e, [2] [3] excess code or biased representation, is a method for signed number representation where a signed number n is represented by the bit pattern corresponding to the unsigned number n+K, K being the biasing value or offset.

  3. Petri net - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petri_net

    If the diagram were of an elementary net, then those places in a configuration would be conventionally depicted as circles, where each circle encompasses a single dot called a token. In the given diagram of a Petri net (see right), the place circles may encompass more than one token to show the number of times a place appears in a configuration.

  4. Linear-feedback shift register - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-feedback_shift_register

    The sequence of numbers generated by an LFSR or its XNOR counterpart can be considered a binary numeral system just as valid as Gray code or the natural binary code. The arrangement of taps for feedback in an LFSR can be expressed in finite field arithmetic as a polynomial mod 2.

  5. Logical shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift

    Logical shifts can be useful as efficient ways to perform multiplication or division of unsigned integers by powers of two. Shifting left by n bits on a signed or unsigned binary number has the effect of multiplying it by 2 n. Shifting right by n bits on an unsigned binary number has the effect of dividing it by 2 n (rounding towards 0).

  6. Signedness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signedness

    For Integers, the unsigned modifier defines the type to be unsigned. The default integer signedness outside bit-fields is signed, but can be set explicitly with signed modifier. By contrast, the C standard declares signed char , unsigned char , and char , to be three distinct types, but specifies that all three must have the same size and ...

  7. Convolutional code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolutional_code

    Convolutional code with any code rate can be designed based on polynomial selection; [15] however, in practice, a puncturing procedure is often used to achieve the required code rate. Puncturing is a technique used to make a m/n rate code from a "basic" low-rate (e.g., 1/n) code. It is achieved by deleting of some bits in the encoder output.

  8. Arithmetic shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_shift

    The formal definition of an arithmetic shift, from Federal Standard 1037C is that it is: . A shift, applied to the representation of a number in a fixed radix numeration system and in a fixed-point representation system, and in which only the characters representing the fixed-point part of the number are moved.

  9. Continuous-time Markov chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous-time_Markov_chain

    Transition graph with transition probabilities, exemplary for the states 1, 5, 6 and 8. There is a bidirectional secret passage between states 2 and 8. The image to the right describes a discrete-time Markov chain modeling Pac-Man with state-space {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}. The player controls Pac-Man through a maze, eating pac-dots.
