  2. File size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_size

    File size is a measure of how much data a computer file contains or how much storage space it is allocated. Typically, file size is expressed in units based on byte. A large value is often expressed with a metric prefix (as in megabyte and gigabyte) or a binary prefix (as in mebibyte and gibibyte). [1]

  3. Gigabyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte

    114 minutes of uncompressed CD-quality audio at 1.4 Mbit/s is approximately 1 GB. A single-layer DVD+R disc can hold about 4.7 GB. A dual-layered DVD+R disc can hold about 8.5 GB. A single-layer Blu-ray can hold about 25 GB. The largest Nintendo Switch cartridge available on the market holds about 32 GB. A dual-layered Blu-ray can hold about 50 GB.

    On the other hand, a hard disk whose capacity is specified by the manufacturer as "10 gigabytes" or "10 GB", holds 10 × 10 9 = 10 000 000 000 bytes, or a little more than that, but less than 10 × 2 30 = 10 737 418 240 and a file whose size is listed as "2.3 GB" may have a size closer to 2.3 × 2 30 ≈ 2 470 000 000 or to 2.3 × 10 9 = 2 300 ...

  5. Memory address - Wikipedia

    On the 360/65, on S/370 models without DAT and when running with translation turned off, there are only a flat real address space and a flat absolute address space. On the 360/67, S/370 and successors through S/390, when running with translation on, addresses contain a segment number, a page number and an offset. Although early models supported ...

    As the name suggests, the C# syntax is based on the core C programming language originally developed by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs (AT&T) in the 1970s. [1] Java and C++ are two other programming languages whose syntax is also based on the C syntax, [2] so they share a common look and feel. See Comparison of C Sharp and Java for more on this topic.

  7. x86 memory models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_memory_models

    Pointer formats are known as near, far, or huge.. Near pointers are 16-bit offsets within the reference segment, i.e. DS for data and CS for code. They are the fastest pointers, but are limited to point to 64 KB of memory (to the associated segment of the data type).

  8. 2 GB limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2_GB_limit

    The 2 GB limit refers to a physical memory barrier for a process running on a 32-bit operating system, which can only use a maximum of 2 GB of memory. [1] The problem mainly affects 32-bit versions of operating systems like Microsoft Windows and Linux , although some variants of the latter can overcome this barrier. [ 2 ]

  9. 3 GB barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier

    The address space in which these MMIO locations appear is the same address space as that used by RAM, and while RAM can exist and be addressable above the 4 GiB point, these MMIO locations decoded by I/O devices cannot be. They are limited by PCI bus specifications to addresses of 0xFFFFFFFF (2 32 − 1) and below. With 4 GiB or more of RAM ...
