Moving Picture Experts Group standard. A proposed standard for compressed video data.
Industry:Semiconductors
A technique used by several functions (such as malloc, calloc, and realloc) to dynamically allocate memory for variables at runtime. This is accomplished by defining a large memory pool (heap) and using the functions to allocate memory from the heap.

Traditionally, a byte is a sequence of 8 adjacent bits operated upon as a unit. However, the TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x byte is 16 bits.
By ANSI C definition, the sizeof operator yields the number of bytes required to store an object. ANSI further stipulates that when sizeof is applied to char, the result is 1. Since the TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x char is 16 bits (to make it separately addressable), a byte is also 16 bits. This can yield unexpected results; for example, sizeof (int) = = 1 (not 2).
TMS320C2x/C2xx/C5x bytes and words are equivalent (16 bits).
A byte is 32 bits for the TMS320C3x/C4x. On a parallel processor and the ’C6x, where the smallest addressable unit is 8 bits in length, the C definition corresponds to the traditional notion of an 8-bit byte.

1) A defined action; namely, the act of obtaining a result from one or more operands in accordance with a rule that completely specifies the result of any permitted combination of operands. 2) The set of such acts specified by a rule, or the rule itself. 3) The act specified by a single computer instruction. 4) A program step undertaken or executed by a computer, e.g., addition, multiplication, extraction, comparison, shift, transfer, etc. 5) The specific action performed by a logic element.
Industry:Semiconductors
A master processor (MP) floating-point unit mode in which the MP executes a single floating-point instruction to completion before starting another floating-point instruction.
Industry:Semiconductors
A term used for a bit-, byte-, field-, or coded-value that is set aside for future small computer system interface (SCSI) standardization.

1) A reference value. 2) A number that is multiplied by itself as many times as indicated by an exponent.
Industry:Semiconductors
One byte of information sent from a target to an initiator on completion of a command.
Industry:Semiconductors
A transfer consisting of sources and/or destinations that can be a simple contiguous linear sequence of data bytes or can consist of a number of such regions. See also guided transfer.
