Additionally Mobile XPs feature not being multiplier-locked and generally higher-rated maximum operating temperatures, requirements intended for better operation within the tight thermal constraints within a notebook PC-but also making them attractive for overclocking.

Since those boards generally lacked multiplier and voltage adjustment, and normally only supported 133 MHz FSB, adjustments would still be needed for full speed operation.

Most generally, a magma is a set together with any binary operation defined on it.

The set is generally implemented as a queue of states to process, with the operation to be performed depending on what kind of state it is.

The Assistant Location Manager will be onset during the filming process to oversee the operation, whereas the Location Manager continues preproduction from elsewhere ( generally an office ) on the upcoming locations.

This type of operation is generally identified as state backed or sponsored, because the ' access to personal, financial or analytic resources ' identified exceed that which could be accessed by cybercriminals or individual hackers.

Current reactors in operation around the world are generally considered second-or third-generation systems, with the first-generation systems having been retired some time ago.

In contrast, an untyped language, such as most assembly languages, allows any operation to be performed on any data, which are generally considered to be sequences of bits of various lengths.

Large numbers of layers are generally produced by folding, where a small number of layers are welded together, then the blank is cut in half, stacked, and welded again, with each operation doubling the number of layers.

This interleaving should generally be avoided unless necessary since it complicates client and server operation and imposes additional overhead.

These rammers were prone to breakdown and generally slowed operation of the gun, because the rammers required crews to completely lower the massive barrel before using it.

Crystals below 30 MHz are generally operated between series and parallel resonance, which means that the crystal appears as an inductive reactance in operation.

While preventive maintenance is generally considered to be worthwhile, there are risks such as equipment failure or human error involved when performing preventive maintenance, just as in any maintenance operation.

The operation was generally considered a tremendous success, and its spectacular character has made it the subject of much continued comment and study.

Light rail vehicles ( LRVs ) are distinguished from rapid rail transit ( RRT ) vehicles by their capability for operation in mixed traffic, generally resulting in a narrower car body and articulation in order to operate in a street traffic environment.

Conversely, LRVs generally outperform traditional streetcars in terms of capacity and top-end speed, and almost all modern LRVs are capable of multiple-unit operation.

* increasingly in specialist scientific magnets, particularly where size and electricity consumption are critical ( while HTS wire is much more expensive than LTS in these applications, this can be offset by the relative cost and convenience of cooling ); the ability to ramp field is desired ( the higher and wider range of HTS's operating temperature means faster changes in field can be managed ); or cryogen free operation is desired ( LTS generally requires liquid helium that is becoming more scarce and expensive ).

Over-voltage operation is not generally recommended.
