| | Port (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In computing, a port (derived from seaport) is a connection through which data is sent and received. | | | Intel microprocessors generally allow one octet (8-bit byte or word) to be sent or received during each instruction. | | | The system bus that holds circuit cards for a computer "Mother Board (MO)" is a form of parallel port. |

| | UUID Generation and registration as OID |
| | UUIDs were originally used in the Network Computing System ( NCS) and later in the Open Software Foundation's Distributed Computing Environment ( DCE). | | | UUIDs forming a component of an OID are represented in ASN.1 value notation as the decimal representation of their integer value, but for all other display purposes it is more usual to represent them with hexadecimal digits with a hyphen separating the different fields within the 16-octet UUID. | | | UUIDs are an octet string of 16 octets (128 bits). |

| | SI prefix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The prefixes K and greater are common in computing, where they are applied to information and storage units like the bit and the byte. | | | The problem is compounded by the fact that the units of information (the bit and the byte) are not part of SI, where the bit, byte, octet, baud or symbol rate would rather be given in hertz. | | | This article was originally based on material from the Free On-line Dictionary of Computing, which is licensed under the GFDL. |

| | A data object is signed by computing its digest value and a signature over that value. | | | The digest algorithm is applied to the data octets of the resulting octet stream. | | | If the data object is an octet stream and the next transform requires a node-set, the signature application MUST attempt to parse the octets yielding the required node-set via [XML] well-formed processing. |

| | NIBBLE FACTS AND INFORMATION |
| | A nibble (or less commonly, nybble) is the computing term for the aggregation of four bits, or half an octet (an octet being an 8-bit byte). | | | The nibble is often called a semioctet in a networking or telecommunication context. | | | The term "nibble" originates from the fact that the term "byte" is a pun on the English word "bite". |

| | NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Bit rate |
| | In telecommunications and computing, bit rate (sometimes written bitrate) is the frequency at which bits are passing a given (physical or metaphorical) "point". | | | There are typically eight bits in a byte (octet), but communications data rates are almost never expressed in bytes per second, with the notable exceptions of disk and memory I/O transfer rates. | | | While often referred to as "speed", bit rate does not measure distance/time but number of bits/time, and thus should be distinguished from the "propagation speed" (which depends on the transmission medium and has the usual physical meaning). |

| | SI prefix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The prefixes K and greater are common in computing, where they are applied to information and storage units like the bit and the byte. | | | French-speaking countries often use "o" for "octet", nowadays a synonym for byte, but this is unacceptable in SI because of the risk of confusion with the zero. | | | Thus the SI prefixes provide steps of a factor one million instead of one thousand in the case of an exponent 2, of a billion in the case of an exponent 3, etc. As a result large numbers may be needed, even if the prefixes are fully used. |
