Flags are usually rectangular in shape ( often in the ratio 2: 3, 1: 2, or 3: 5 ), but may be of any shape or size that is practical for flying, including square, triangular, or swallow tailed.

Flags that are made to the prescribed 1. 9 ratio are often referred to as " G-spec " ( for " government specification ") flags.

In the Battle of Palan ( 1 September 1883 ) the Black Flags did less well, being driven from a key position on the Day River.

Financial institutions faced a mandatory deadline of November 1, 2008, to comply with the Red Flags Rule, section 114 and 315 of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions ( FACT ) Act.

For a 256-bit block, the first row is unchanged and the shifting for the second, third and fourth row is 1 byte, 3 bytes and 4 bytes respectively — this change only applies for the Rijndael cipher when used with a 256-bit block, as AES does not use 256-bit blocks.

In a lower-speed link, such as a 1. 544 Mbit / s T1 line, a 1500 byte packet would take up to 7. 8 milliseconds.

A 1500 byte ( 12000-bit ) full-size Ethernet frame takes only 1. 2 µs to transmit on a 10 Gbit / s network, reducing the need for small cells to reduce jitter due to contention.

The linked lists used by the image data and the extension blocks consist of series of sub-blocks, each sub-block beginning with a byte giving the number of subsequent data bytes in the sub-block ( 1 to 255 ).

CD-ROM Mode 1, usually used for computer data, divides the 2352 byte data area defined by the Red Book standards into 12 bytes of synchronization information, 4 bytes of header data, 2048 bytes of user data and 288 bytes of error correction and detection codes.

* Level 2: File names are not limited to 11 characters ( the 8. 3 format ) but can be up to the maximum allowed by the 1 byte counter in the directory entry and the filename length byte counter.

However, a second definition and usage has historically been in practice in many fields of computer science and information technology, which defines the prefix kilo when used with byte or bit units of data as 1024 ( 2 < sup > 10 </ sup >); this is due to the mathematical coincidence that Thus, in these fields 1 kilobyte is equal to 1 kibibyte, a new unit standardized as part of the binary prefixes to resolve the ambiguity.

Using the common byte size of 8 bits, 1 kbit is equal to 125 bytes.

Note that with ( A0 )+ and -( A0 ), the actual increment or decrement value is dependent on the operand size: a byte access increments the address register by 1, a word by 2, and a long by 4.

The S1 was notable in that it contained paging hardware extending the 6809's native 64 kilobyte ( 64 × 2 < sup > 10 </ sup > byte ) addressing range to a full 1 megabyte ( 1 × 2 < sup > 20 </ sup > byte ) in 4 KB pages.

When Richard Stallman and the GNU team were implementing POSIX for the GNU operating system, they objected to this on the grounds that most people think in terms of 1024 byte ( or 1 KiB ) blocks.

Some aspects of the instruction set are unique, most notably the " byte " instructions, which operated on bit fields of any size from 1 to 36 bits inclusive according to the general definition of a byte as a contiguous sequence of a fixed number of bits.

* move 1 byte address in ROM

The bit sequence " 01111110 " containing six adjacent 1 bits is commonly used as a " Flag byte " or FSS.

/// LRC ( hex 1 byte ): EC

The first technique used to ensure a minimum density of marks was zero code suppression a form of bit stuffing, which set the least significant bit of each 8-bit byte transmitted to a 1.

Since each T1 frame contains 1 byte of voice data for each of the 24 channels, that system needs then 8, 000 frames per second to maintain those 24 simultaneous voice channels.

A sample byte or data block of sub-channel 1 is transmitted during time slot 1, sub-channel 2 during time slot 2, etc.
