  2. Comparison of data-serialization formats - Wikipedia

    For example, PKIX uses such notation in RFC 5912. With such notation (constraints on parameterized types using information object sets), generic ASN.1 tools/libraries can automatically encode/decode/resolve references within a document. ^ The primary format is binary, a json encoder is available.

  3. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    Because Base64 is a six-bit encoding, and because the decoded values are divided into 8-bit octets, every four characters of Base64-encoded text (4 sextets = 4 × 6 = 24 bits) represents three octets of unencoded text or data (3 octets = 3 × 8 = 24 bits). This means that when the length of the unencoded input is not a multiple of three, the ...

  4. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text. More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters . These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP ) or is not 8-bit clean .

  5. CBOR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBOR

    CBOR encoded data is seen as a stream of data items. Each data item consists of a header byte containing a 3-bit type and 5-bit short count. This is followed by an optional extended count (if the short count is in the range 24–27), and an optional payload. For types 0, 1, and 7, there is no payload; the count is the value. For types 2 (byte ...

  6. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-precision_floating...

    The format is written with the significand having an implicit integer bit of value 1 (except for special data, see the exponent encoding below). With the 52 bits of the fraction (F) significand appearing in the memory format, the total precision is therefore 53 bits (approximately 16 decimal digits, 53 log 10 (2) ≈ 15.955).

  7. VEX prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VEX_prefix

    The REX prefix provides additional space for encoding 64-bit addressing modes and additional registers present in the x86-64 architecture. Bit-field W changes the operand size to 64 bits, R expands reg to 4 bits, B expands r/m (or opreg in the few opcodes that encode the register in the 3 lowest opcode bits, such as "POP reg"), and X and B expand index and base in the SIB byte.

  8. 64b/66b encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64b/66b_encoding

    The 66-bit entity is made by prefixing one of two possible 2-bit preambles to the 64 payload bits. This 66-bit entity is now of two possible states. If the preamble is 01 2, the 64 payload bits are data. If the preamble is 10 2, the 64 payload bits hold an 8-bit Type field and 56 bits of control information and/or data.

  9. decimal64 floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal64_floating-point...

    The encoding, completely stored on 64 bits, can represent binary significands up to 10 × 2 50 − 1 = 11 258 999 068 426 239 = 27FFFFFFFFFFFF 16, but values larger than 10 16 − 1 are illegal (and the standard requires implementations to treat them as 0, if encountered on input).
