71MMIX — may also refer to the year 2009, in Roman numerals. MMIX (pronounced em mix ) is a 64 bit RISC instruction set architecture (ISA) designed by Donald Knuth, with significant contributions by John L. Hennessy (who contributed to the design of the… …
72PILOT — The name PILOT is an acronym, and stands for Programmed Instruction, Learning, Or Teaching . Like its younger sibling LOGO, it was an early foray into the technology of computer assisted instruction (CAI).Language syntaxA line of PILOT code… …
73RCA 1802 — The RCA (CDP)1802 (aka RCA COSMAC*, COSMAC 1802) is an 8 bit CMOS microprocessor (µP) introduced by RCA in early 1976, and currently being manufactured by Intersil Corporation. The 1802 has an architecture quite different from most other 8 bit… …
74Addressing mode — Addressing modes are an aspect of the instruction set architecture in most central processing unit (CPU) designs. The various addressing modes that are defined in a given instruction set architecture define how machine language instructions in… …
75XS (Perl) — XS is an interface through which a Perl program can call a C or C++ language subroutine. The letters stand for eXternal Subroutine, or xsub, where external means external to Perl, i.e. written in some other language.It may be desirable for a Perl …
76NP-complete — Euler diagram for P, NP, NP complete, and NP hard set of problems In computational complexity theory, the complexity class NP complete (abbreviated NP C or NPC) is a class of decision problems. A decision problem L is NP complete if it is in the… …

78Inline expansion — In computing, inline expansion, or inlining, is a manual or compiler optimization that replaces a function call site with the body of the callee. This optimization may improve time and space usage at runtime, at the possible cost of increasing… …
79Self-modifying code — In computer science, self modifying code is code that alters its own instructions, intentionally or otherwise, while it is executing.Self modifying code is quite straightforward to write when using assembly language (taking into account the CPU… …
80Cycle detection — This article is about iterated functions. For another use, see Cycle detection (graph theory). In computer science, cycle detection is the algorithmic problem of finding a cycle in a sequence of iterated function values. For any function ƒ that… …
