  2. Distant Worlds 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distant_Worlds_2

    The gameplay and core mechanics are nearly identical to its predecessor Distant Worlds, with the main differences being: a shift from a strictly top down 2D perspective to a 3D point of view, the removal of orbital mechanics, the default automation of previously manual actions, and various UI changes to improve accessibility to the game (although in function they remain nearly identical).

    Distant Worlds is a real-time grand strategy wargame developed by Code Force and published by Matrix Games. [2]Distant Worlds was released on March 25, 2010. [3] [4] Three subsequent expansions, Return of the Shakturi, Legends, and Shadows were released in 2010, 2011, and 2013, respectively.

  4. Megahertz myth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megahertz_myth

    The myth started around 1984 when comparing the Apple II with the IBM PC. [citation needed] The argument was that the IBM computer was five times faster than the Apple II, as its Intel 8088 processor had a clock speed roughly 4.7 times the clock speed of the MOS Technology 6502 used in the latter. However, what really matters is not how finely ...

    These two models were designed to fit into the CPU socket (similar to the 8-bit ZipChip models) rather than taking up a slot. The less expensive model 1500 would have omitted DMA support and was supposed to run at 8 MHz with 8 KB of cache. The 1525 would also have run at 8 MHz but it would have included DMA support and 16 KB of cache.

    1×10 21: Accurate global weather estimation on the scale of approximately 2 weeks. [19] Assuming Moore's law remains applicable, such systems may be feasible around 2035. [20] A zettascale computer system could generate more single floating point data in one second than was stored by any digital means on Earth in the first quarter of 2011.

  7. Level of detail (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    LOD is especially useful in 3D video games. Video game developers want to provide players with large worlds but are always constrained by hardware, frame rate and the real-time nature of video game graphics. With the advent of 3D games in the 1990s, a lot of video games simply did not render distant structures or objects.

    For the largest AI models, 90% of their training time can consist of waiting for data in transit across the supercomputing cluster as opposed to the time it actually takes the chips to run the ...

    In a clocked CPU, no component can run faster than the clock rate. In a clockless CPU, components can run at different speeds. In a clocked CPU, the clock can go no faster than the worst-case performance of the slowest stage. In a clockless CPU, when a stage finishes faster than normal, the next stage can immediately take the results rather ...
