Mode in which the actual address is obtained by adding a displacement to a base address.
Industry:Software
The range of grey levels, from black to white, but without color. For neutral areas in the image, the RGB signals will all be equal; in colour difference formats, the colour difference signals will be zero.
Industry:Software
A factor of data access time due to disc rotation. The faster a disc spins the quicker it will be at the position where the required data can start to be read. As disc diameters have decreased, so rotational speeds have tended to increase but there is still much variation. Modern 3-1/2- inch drives typically have spindle speeds of between 3,600 and 7,200 revolutions per minute, so one revolution is completed in 16 or 8 milliseconds (ms) respectively. This is represented in the disc specification as average latency of 8 or 4 ms.
Industry:Software
Codes designed to assist the human memory. The microprocessor language consists of binary words, which are a series of 0s and 1s, making it difficult for the programmer to remember the instructions corresponding to a given operation. To assist the human memory, the binary numbered codes are assigned groups of letters (of mnemonic symbols) that suggest the definition of the instruction. For example, the 8085 code 100000 binary means load accumulator and is represented by the mnemonic LDA.
Industry:Software
A video sequence does not include B-pictures when the low delay flag is set; consequently, the pictures follow in chronological order, and low delay is obtained. Normally, when B-pictures are included, the pictures used for prediction of a B-picture are sent in advance so they are available when the B-picture arrives, but this increases the delay.
Industry:Software
Four bits or half a byte. A group of four contiguous bits. A nibble can take any of 16 (24) values.
Industry:Software
Equipment designed to be movable as a unit. A truck/van with all the necessary equipment to do photography/production on location.
Sometimes mobile units have cameras and VTRs within them and sometimes they are added for specific jobs.
Industry:Software
Addressing a memory location that contains the address of data rather than the data itself.
