memory access
21Memory architecture — describes the methods used to implement electronic computer data storage in a manner that is a combination of the fastest, most reliable, most durable, and least expensive way to store and retrieve information. Depending on the specific… …
22Memory bound function — Memory bound refers to a situation in which the time to complete a given computational problem is decided primarily by the amount of available memory to hold data. In other words, the limiting factor of solving a given problem is the memory… …
23Memory dependence prediction — is a technique, employed by high performance out of order execution microprocessors that execute memory access operations (loads and stores) out of program order, to predict true dependences between loads and stores at instruction execution time …
24Memory mapped I/O — (deutsche Übertragungen wie speicherabgebildete Ein /Ausgabe oder speicherbezogene Adressierung konnten sich bislang nicht durchsetzen) ist ein Verfahren zur Kommunikation einer Zentraleinheit mit Peripheriegeräten. Die I/O Register von… …
25Memory Mapped I/O — (MMIO) (deutsche Übertragungen wie speicherabgebildete Ein /Ausgabe oder speicherbezogene Adressierung konnten sich bislang nicht durchsetzen) ist ein Verfahren zur Kommunikation einer Zentraleinheit mit Peripheriegeräten. Die I/O Register von… …
26Non-Uniform Memory Access — parallel processing architecture in which each processor has its own memory but can also access the memory of other processors, NUMA (Computers) …
27direct memory access — noun Computers a data path to a computer memory in which the central processing unit does not intervene; used for high speed transfer of large volumes of data. Also, direct memory channel …
28Direct Memory Access — communications channel between memory and peripheral devices, DMA …
29direct memory access — Abbreviated DMA. A method of transferring information directly from a mass storage device, such as a hard disk, into memory without the information passing through the processor. Because the processor is not involved in the transfer, DMA is… …
30direct memory access — (DMA) The ability of an external I/O device to act on and transfer data to and from memory without intermediary devices or circuits …
