Earlier versions also ran on the i860, Alpha, MIPS, Fairchild Clipper, and PowerPC architectures.

The success of this initial processor version was limited to replacing PA-RISC in HP systems, Alpha in Compaq systems and MIPS in SGI systems, though IBM also delivered a supercomputer based on this processor.

Alpha Microscopii is also a yellow giant, though in this case a variable star, which ranges between apparent magnitudes 4. 88 and 4. 94.

The 68040 was also used in other personal computers, such as the Amiga 4000 and Amiga 4000T, as well as a number of workstations, Alpha Microsystems servers, the HP 9000 / 400 series, and later versions of the NeXT computer.

The P5 Pentium competitors included the Motorola 68060 and the PowerPC 601 as well as the SPARC, MIPS, and Alpha microprocessor families, most of which also used a superscalar in-order dual instruction pipeline configuration at some time.

Symbolics also made significant advances in software technology, and offered one of the premier software development environments of the 1980s and 1990s, now sold commercially as Open Genera for Tru64 UNIX on the HP Alpha.

Thuban also known by its Bayer designation Alpha Draconis ( α Draconis, α Dra ) is a star ( or star system ) in the constellation of Draco.

Two melodies from Albedo 0. 39, " Alpha " and " Pulstar ", and also one track from L ' Apocalypse des animaux, " Création du Monde ", were also used in Cosmos.

It would also have allowed the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer to be launched to the ISS, which the schedule at the time did not allow.

Market basket analysis has also been used to identify the purchase patterns of the Alpha Consumer.

But starting with their second album, Alpha Centauri, the group has been a trio or occasionally duo of electronic instruments, commonly augmented by guitar from Froese ( or, much later, other musicians as well ), and occasionally also other instruments.

* The lyrebird is also featured atop the crest of Panhellenic Sorority Alpha Chi Omega, whose symbol is the lyre.

He also joined Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity.

; Alpha: The first letter of the Greek alphabet, stands for Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom and patroness of the arts, crafts, and sciences.

The impact rate on 1958 Alpha for 153 events was Af for particles of mass greater than Af ( Dubin, 1960 ) ; ;

Alpha decay can provide a safe power source for radioisotope thermoelectric generators used for space probes and artificial heart pacemakers.

Carnegie was honored for his philanthropy and support of the arts by initiation as an honorary member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Fraternity on October 14, 1917, at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Massachusetts.

Alpha blending is a convex combination of two colors allowing for transparency effects in computer graphics.

Notably, the design team was led by Dirk Meyer, who had worked as a lead engineer on multiple Alpha microprocessors during his employment at DEC. Jerry Sanders had approached many of the engineering staff to work for AMD as DEC wound down their semiconductor business, and brought in a near-complete team of engineering experts.

; Open Genera: for DEC Alpha.

It is available on Linux and BSD for Intel x86 ; Linux for Alpha ; Mac OS X for Intel x86 and PowerPC ; and Solaris, IRIX, and HP-UX on their native platforms.

During his time at Columbia he joined Alpha Phi Alpha, worked on the university's Columbia Daily Spectator and drew cartoons for the school's magazine Jester.

Although the Alpha processor family met both of these goals, and, for most of its lifetime, was the fastest processor family on the market, it did little to affect the bottom line or repair the company's status.

Package for DEC Alpha AXP 21064 Microprocessor

The main contribution of Alpha to the microprocessor industry, and the main reason for its performance, was not so much the architecture but rather its implementation.

The Alpha chips showed that manual circuit design applied to a simpler, cleaner architecture allowed for much higher operating frequencies than those that were possible with the more automated design systems.

The Alpha does not have condition codes for integer instructions to remove a potential bottleneck at the condition status register.

The floating-point control register ( FPCR ) is a 64-bit register defined by the architecture intended for use by Alpha implementations with IEEE 754-compliant floating-point hardware.

The Alpha had some provision for future expansion of the instruction set to include 128-bit data types.

Computer game Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri and its expansion Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire are set on the planet Chiron in the Alpha Centauri system where all indigenous life appears to behave in accordance with the Gaia philosophy.

Initially equipped with ex-RAF Hawker Hunters, the air force soon began expansion with six Dassault / Dornier Alpha Jets in 1979.

* A secret project in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri's expansion pack is called the Cloudbase Academy.

* Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire, expansion pack for Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

* Spaceship journeys to Alpha Centauri are always successful in games prior to the second expansion, Beyond the Sword, after which the chance of success once again varies depending on how complete the spacecraft is ; it is possible, by fully constructing the spacecraft, to guarantee success.

Like Alpha it had no expansion symbol, and the text on the bottom left consisted of only the artist credit.

Professor Wood was Chairman of the Aeronautics Department at Parks College of St. Louis University and was responsible for the growth and modern expansion of Alpha Eta Rho, The University Aviation Association ( UAA ), and the National Intercollegiate Flying Association ( NIFA ).

The expansion pack Vietcong: Fist Alpha was released in 2004 and was bundled with Vietcong as Vietcong: Purple Haze for the PC.

Traditionally a national organization serving United States universities, recent expansion into Canadian universities has distinguished Alpha Phi Sigma as an international honor society.
