Their abundance makes arthropods ecologically vital; for example, myriapods are important processors of leaf litter in forests, and termites consume large quantities of cellulose (Crawford 1992; Higashi et al. 1992).
Considered one of, if not the most important processors inside the PC, the NVIDIA GPU, in combination with an NVIDIA MCP, provides consumers with untold choices for building completely flexible, scalable, and high-definition entertainment platforms, driving visual computing capabilities to new heights.
It is important for processor architects to understand what processor micro-architecture parameters contribute to higher or lower performance.
Although speed is important in processor design, for large corporate server, engineering and scientific applications it is vital that the processor can directly process vast arrays of data.
As the size of on chip cache memory steadily increased for the past decades, resilient techniques against soft errors in cache are becoming increasingly important for processor reliability.
Software remains a great American expertise, and it's only becoming more important as processors shrink into ever more powerful forms.
"We didn't want to study ourselves into jail," said Richard Schwartz, a lobbyist for some of the biggest livestock companies, explaining why the promise of protection against enforcement action was so important to processors.
Sensors security for autonomous machines will become as important as processors security.
It ends with a discussion of instruction selection, which is especially important to processors (such as DSPs) with idiosyncratic instructions sets.
Perhaps even more important, food processors can improve the flavor of their products without adding more sugar or salt.
