data buffer register
1Memory buffer register — A Memory Buffer Register (MBR) is the register in a computer s processor, or central processing unit, CPU, that stores the data being transferred to and from the immediate access store. It acts as a buffer allowing the processor and memory units… …
2Buffer overflow protection — refers to various techniques used during software development to enhance the security of executable programs by detecting buffer overflows on stack allocated variables as they occur and preventing them from becoming serious security… …
3Buffer overflow — In computer security and programming, a buffer overflow, or buffer overrun, is an anomalous condition where a process attempts to store data beyond the boundaries of a fixed length buffer. The result is that the extra data overwrites adjacent… …
4Register renaming — In computer engineering, register renaming refers to a technique usedto avoid unnecessary serialization of program operations imposed by the reuseof registers by those operations.Problem definitionPrograms are composed of instructions which… …
5Processor register — In computer architecture, a processor register is a small amount of storage available as part of a CPU or other digital processor. Such registers are (typically) addressed by mechanisms other than main memory and can be accessed more quickly.… …
6Stack buffer overflow — In software, a stack buffer overflow occurs when a program writes to a memory address on the program s call stack outside of the intended data structure; usually a fixed length buffer.cite web last = Fithen first = William L coauthors = Seacord,… …
7Stack (data structure) — In computer science, a stack is an abstract data type and data structure based on the principle of Last In First Out (LIFO) . Stacks are used extensively at every level of a modern computer system. For example, a modern PC uses stacks at the… …
8Memory data register — The Memory Data Register (MDR) is the register of a computer s control unit that contains the data to be stored in the computer storage (e.g. RAM), or the data after a fetch from the computer storage. It acts like a buffer and holds anything that …
9Shelving buffer — A shelving buffer is a technique used in computer processors to increase the efficiency of superscalar processors.BackgroundA Superscalar processor allows the execution of a number of instructions simultaneously in the core of the processor… …
10Computer data storage — 1 GB of SDRAM mounted in a personal computer. An example of primary storage …
