  2. Explicitly parallel instruction computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicitly_parallel...

    EPIC permits microprocessors to execute software instructions in parallel by using the compiler, rather than complex on-die circuitry, to control parallel instruction execution. This was intended to allow simple performance scaling without resorting to higher clock frequencies.

  3. Commodore 1571 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodore_1571

    The 1572 would have allowed for fast disk backups of non-copy-protected media, much like the old 4040, 8050, and 8250 dual drives. The 1571 built into the European plastic-case C128 D computer is electronically identical to the stand-alone version, but 1571 version integrated into the later metal-case C128D (often called C128 DCR, for D Cost ...

  4. x86 Bit manipulation instruction set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_Bit_manipulation...

    Bit manipulation instructions sets (BMI sets) are extensions to the x86 instruction set architecture for microprocessors from Intel and AMD. The purpose of these instruction sets is to improve the speed of bit manipulation. All the instructions in these sets are non-SIMD and operate only on general-purpose registers.

  5. Electronic switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_switch

    The most widely used electronic switch in digital circuits is the metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). [2] The analogue switch uses two MOSFET transistors in a transmission gate arrangement as a switch that works much like a relay, with some advantages and several limitations compared to an electromechanical relay.

  6. Interactive electronic technical manual - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_electronic...

    An interactive electronic technical manual (IETM) is a portal to manage technical documentation.IETMs compress volumes of text into just CD-ROMs or online pages which may include sound and video, and allow readers to locate needed information far more rapidly than in paper manuals.

  7. Instruction set architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_set_architecture

    C = A+B needs four instructions. 3-operand, allowing better reuse of data: [11] CISC — It becomes either a single instruction: add a,b,c. C = A+B needs one instruction. CISC — Or, on machines limited to two memory operands per instruction, move a,reg1; add reg1,b,c; C = A+B needs two instructions.

  8. User guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_guide

    In some business software applications, where groups of users have access to only a sub-set of the application's full functionality, a user guide may be prepared for each group. An example of this approach is the Autodesk Topobase 2010 Help [ 6 ] document, which contains separate Administrator Guides , User Guides , and a Developer's Guide .

  9. Nintendo Player's Guide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Player's_Guide

    This end of guide production was apparently due to the impending switch from in-house publication of NP to publication by Future US, which occurred in November 2007. In an issue of Nintendo Power, an NP subscriber wrote to Nintendo, asking about the status of the Player's Guide series. Nintendo replied that the series is indeed discontinued ...
