FORTRAN programming language computing
FORTRAN (Formula Translation System)
Indeed present in the FORTRAN programming language computing the father, it is first converted into a mathematical formula can a computer program language. In 1957, IBM has successfully commercialized later, FORTRAN was launched to assist numerous engineering application software development.
FORTRAN good at math operations, mainly used in numerical analysis, system simulation and automatic control and other fields. Program content schema contains variable definitions, functions, deputy program, the main program and some other.
Since the emergence of FORTRAN, allowing engineers and scientists for the first time have a more natural language to write programs, so in the engineering design process using software-oriented languages the field plays a decisive role.
FPGA Field-Programmable Gate Array
Programmable logic (LOGIC) chip (CHIP), similar to the programmable read-only memory (PROM), but it can perform logical operations. Is often used as an integrated circuit (IC) development of a prototype (PROTOTYPE).
FPM RAM Fast Page Mode Random Access Memory
A DRAM, when an access and the previous access to the same memory page (PAGE), the no transmission ROW addresses to speed up the access speed. Due to the page as a unit acceleration, also known as PAGE MODE MEMORY, access speed From the 120 NS to 60 NS. FPM technology before the advent of EDO DRAM technology is the most common type of DRAM.
FPU Floating-Point Unit
Floating-point unit, the processor (PROCESSOR) within a dedicated floating-point (FLOATING-POINT) digital computing unit.
