Booting

In computing, booting is the process of starting a computer as initiated via hardware such as a button on the computer or by a software command.

See LongHaul and Booting

Central processing unit

A central processing unit (CPU), also called a central processor, main processor, or just processor, is the most important processor in a given computer.

See LongHaul and Central processing unit

Computer

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to automatically carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation).

See LongHaul and Computer

Control engineering

Control engineering or control systems engineering or Automation engineering (In Some European Countries) is an engineering discipline that deals with control systems, applying control theory to design equipment and systems with desired behaviors in control environments.

See LongHaul and Control engineering

CPU core voltage

The CPU core voltage (VCORE) is the power supply voltage supplied to the processing cores of CPU (which is a digital circuit), GPU, or any other device with a processing core.

See LongHaul and CPU core voltage

CPU multiplier

In computing, the clock multiplier (or CPU multiplier or bus/core ratio) sets the ratio of an internal CPU clock rate to the externally supplied clock. LongHaul and CPU multiplier are clock signal.

See LongHaul and CPU multiplier

Cyrix III

Cyrix III is an x86-compatible Socket 370 CPU.

See LongHaul and Cyrix III

Default (computer science)

A default, in computer science, refers to the preexisting value of a user-configurable setting that is assigned to a software application, computer program or device.

See LongHaul and Default (computer science)

Device driver

In the context of an operating system, a device driver is a computer program that operates or controls a particular type of device that is attached to a computer or automaton.

See LongHaul and Device driver

Dynamic frequency scaling

Dynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a power management technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted "on the fly" depending on the actual needs, to conserve power and reduce the amount of heat generated by the chip. LongHaul and Dynamic frequency scaling are clock signal and computer hardware tuning.

See LongHaul and Dynamic frequency scaling

Dynamic voltage scaling

In computer architecture, dynamic voltage scaling is a power management technique in which the voltage used in a component is increased or decreased, depending upon circumstances. LongHaul and dynamic voltage scaling are computer hardware tuning.

See LongHaul and Dynamic voltage scaling

Instruction set architecture

In computer science, an instruction set architecture (ISA) is an abstract model that generally defines how software controls the CPU in a computer or a family of computers.

See LongHaul and Instruction set architecture

Load (computing)

In UNIX computing, the system load is a measure of the amount of computational work that a computer system performs.

See LongHaul and Load (computing)

LongRun

LongRun and LongRun2 are power management technologies introduced by Transmeta. LongHaul and LongRun are clock signal, computer hardware stubs and computer hardware tuning.

See LongHaul and LongRun

Low-power electronics

Low-power electronics are electronics, such as notebook processors, that have been designed to use less electrical power than usual, often at some expense.

See LongHaul and Low-power electronics

Operating system

An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.

See LongHaul and Operating system

Power management

Power management is a feature of some electrical appliances, especially copiers, computers, computer CPUs, computer GPUs and computer peripherals such as monitors and printers, that turns off the power or switches the system to a low-power state when inactive. LongHaul and power management are computer hardware tuning.

See LongHaul and Power management

Software

Software consists of computer programs that instruct the execution of a computer.

See LongHaul and Software

Transmeta Corporation was an American fabless semiconductor company based in Santa Clara, California.

See LongHaul and Transmeta

VIA C3

The VIA C3 is a family of x86 central processing units for personal computers designed by Centaur Technology and sold by VIA Technologies.

See LongHaul and VIA C3

VIA C7

The VIA C7 is an x86 central processing unit designed by Centaur Technology and sold by VIA Technologies.

See LongHaul and VIA C7

VIA Nano

The VIA Nano (formerly code-named VIA Isaiah) is a 64-bit CPU for personal computers.

See LongHaul and VIA Nano

VIA Technologies

VIA Technologies, Inc. is a Taiwanese manufacturer of integrated circuits, mainly motherboard chipsets, CPUs, and memory.
