Hard Drive Recovery - Multi-Core Processor
A multi-core processor consists of two or more independent cores or CPUs integrated onto a single integrated circuit die or integrated onto multiple dies in a single chip package. The term differs from ‘multi-CPU’ in that the latter refers to multiple physically separate processing units.
The most common multi-core processors are [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - UltraSPARC T1
UltraSPARC T1 is the first multithreaded and multi-core microprocessor designed by Sun Microsystems. The T1 was known under the development codename ‘Niagara’ until its release on 14 November 2005. It is designed to reduce energy consumption of server computers. This CPU uses only 72 W of power at 1.4 GHz.
UltraSPARC [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Multithreading
Multithreading is the ability of CPU to execute multiple execution requests at the same time. Modern CPUs are capable of executing nearly one billion instructions every second. It allows the CPU to switch one program to another swiftly and manage multiple requests by the same/multiple user/s without having to have multiple [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Program Counter
The program counter, also known as instruction pointer or instruction address register, is a processor register that indicates the instruction sequence of a computer. The presence of program counter in the CPU has far-reaching consequences in the programming of computers. It is also a significant component in the von Neumann [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - IO Accelerator
The HP StorageWorks IO Accelerator (IO Accelerator) is a solid-state drive designed for HP’s BladeSystem c-Class servers. Introduced by HP in March 2009, the IO Accelerator is offered in mezzanine card form factor. The IO Accelerator technology is derived from a start-up firm Fusion-io. With this product, HP becomes the [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Log-Structured File System
A log-structured filesystem is a file system design introduced by John K. Ousterhout and Fred Douglis in 1988 for yielding high write throughput. In log-structured filesystem, all updates to data and metadata are written sequentially to a continuous stream, called a log.
Conventional file systems usually lay out files with [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - GPGPU
General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) is the technique of using a graphic processing unit to perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the CPU. This is made possible by the addition of programmable stages and higher precision arithmetic to the rendering pipelines. As a result, software developers are able [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Vector Processor
A vector processor, also known as array processor, is a CPU design that consists of an instruction set containing operations that can perform mathematical operations on multiple data elements simultaneously. Vector processors were popular in scientific computing era, and they formed the basis of supercomputers through the 1980s and into [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Oz Programing
Oz is a multiparadigm programming language designed by Gert Smolka and his students at Université catholique de Louvain in 1991. Since 1996, the research group of Seif Haridi and Peter Van Roy at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science has contributed for the development of Oz. Since 1999, it has [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Dataflow
Dataflow is a software architecture that is based on the idea that a change in the value of a variable should automatically result in recalculation of the values of other variables. Dataflow is also known as reactive programming. A few programming languages are created to support dataflow. For example, many of [...]
