  2. Offset (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offset_(computer_science)

    An odd offset would cause a program check (unless the base register itself also contained an odd address)—since instructions had to be aligned on half-word boundaries to execute without a program or hardware interrupt. The previous example describes an indirect way to address to a memory location in the format of segment:offset.

  3. Word addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_addressing

    A pair of a word address and an offset within the word is called a wide address (also known as a fat address or fat pointer). (This should not be confused with other uses of wide addresses for storing other kinds of supplemental data, such as the bounds of an array.) The stored offset may be either a bit offset or a byte offset.

  4. Offset - Wikipedia

    Offset (gears), the perpendicular distance between the axes of hypoid or offset-facing gears; Offset (geometry), see parallel curve; Offset (geophysics), the distance between a source and receiver of seismic or other geophysical readings; DC bias or DC offset, the mean amplitude of a waveform (originally, a direct-current ("DC") waveform)

  5. x86 memory models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_memory_models

    Another 16-bit register can act as an offset into a given segment, and so a logical address on this platform is written segment:offset, typically in hexadecimal notation. In real mode, in order to calculate the physical address of a byte of memory, the hardware shifts the contents of the appropriate segment register 4 bits left (effectively ...

  6. 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.

  7. Parallel curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_curve

    A parabola has as (two-sided) offsets rational curves of degree 6. A hyperbola or an ellipse has as (two-sided) offsets an algebraic curve of degree 8. A Bézier curve of degree n has as (two-sided) offsets algebraic curves of degree 4n − 2. In particular, a cubic Bézier curve has as (two-sided) offsets algebraic curves of degree 10.

  9. Heterojunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterojunction

    A common anion rule was proposed which guesses that since the valence band is related to anionic states, materials with the same anions should have very small valence band offsets. This however did not explain the data but is related to the trend that two materials with different anions tend to have larger valence band offsets than conduction ...
