| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NB (please, note): twinaxial - A type of cable similar to coax, but with two inner conductors instead of one. It is used in IBM midrange (AS/400, System/3x) communications environments. Trillion - (1018) квинтильон; (US, 1012) триллион. Centimeter - A unit of measurement that is 1/100th of a meter or approximately 4/10ths of an inch (0.39 inch). million - One thousand times one thousand or 10 to the 6th power.
kilo - Thousand. Abbreviated "K." It often refers to the precise value 1,024 since computer specifications are usually binary numbers. For example, 64K means 65,536 bytes when referring to memory or storage (64x1024), but a 64K salary means $64,000. The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) uses "K" for 1,024, and "k" for 1,000. Kilobyte - One thousand bytes. Also KB, Kbyte and K-byte.
mega - (1) Million. Abreviated "M." It often refers to the precise value 1,048,576 since computer specifications are usually binary numbers; MHz – MegaHertZ, megahertz - one million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. Megahertz is generally equivalent to one million bits per second or to one million times some number of bits per second.
giga - Billion. Abbreviated “G”. It often refers to the precise value 1,073,741,824 since computer specifications are usually binary numbers; gigabit - One billion bits. Also Gb, Gbit and G-bit; gigabyte - One billion bytes. Also GB, Gbyte and G-byte computer specifications are usually binary numbers.
Pico - One trillionth or 10 to the -12th power. Picosecond - One trillionth of a second.
nano - One billionth or 10 to the -9th power. Nanosecond - One billionth of a second. Used to measure the speed of logic and memory chips, a nanosecond can be visualized by converting it to distance. In one nanosecond, electricity travels about six inches in a wire. Even at 186,000 miles per second, electricity is never fast enough for the hardware designer who worries over a few inches of circuit path. The slightest delay is multiplied millions of times, since millions of pulses are sent through a wire in a single second. Nanotechnology - A future science that builds devices at the atomic and molecular level. For example, a bit might be represented by only one atom some time in the future. Nanotechnology could be used to build anything, not just computers and communications devices. Femto - One quadrillionth or 10 to the -15th power. Femtosecond - One quadrillionth of a second.
