Some of the recommendations coming from the Acadia Advantage Renewal Report included developing a choice of model specifications and moving from Acadia-issued, student-leased notebook computers to a student-owned computer model.

Some operations may change the state of the ADT ; therefore, the order in which operations are evaluated is important, and the same operation on the same entities may have different effects if executed at different times — just like the instructions of a computer, or the commands and procedures of an imperative language.

Some, such as computational complexity theory, which studies fundamental properties of computational problems, are highly abstract, while others, such as computer graphics, emphasize real-world applications.

Some fields, such as computational complexity theory ( which explores the fundamental properties of computational problems ), are highly abstract, whilst fields such as computer graphics emphasise real-world applications.

Some of the earliest animation done using a digital computer was done at Bell Telephone Laboratories in the first half of the 1960s by Edward E. Zajac, Frank W. Sinden, Kenneth C. Knowlton, and A. Michael Noll.

Some computer systems allow file names to contain spaces ; others do not.

Some systems also include a hidden flag to make certain files invisible ; this flag is used by the computer system to hide essential system files that users should not alter.

Some content-control software includes time control functions that empowers parents to set the amount of time that child may spend accessing the Internet or playing games or other computer activities.

Some calculators even have the ability to do computer algebra.

Some disk operating systems were the operating system for the entire computer system.

Some realistic references to ARPA in fiction are in Tom Swift and the Visitor from Planet X ( DARPA consults on a technical threat ), in episodes of television program The West Wing ( the ARPA-DARPA distinction ), the television program Numb3rs ( DARPA research into creating the first self-aware computer ), and in the motion picture Executive Decision ( use of a one-of-a-kind experimental prototype in an emergency ).

Some of these sketches may even be shown to a client for early stage approval, before the designer develops the idea further using a computer and graphic design software tools.

Some computer historians date this, the first appearance of a significant and non-Microsoft application for Windows, as the start of the success of Windows.

Some ergometers can be connected to a personal computer using software, and data on individual exercise sessions can be collected and analyzed.

Some computer kiosks provide a free, informational public service, while others serve a commercial purpose ( see mall kiosk ).

Some early examples of computer markup languages available outside the publishing industry can be found in typesetting tools on Unix systems such as troff and nroff.

Some computer sound cards include a standard MIDI connector, whereas others connect by any of various means that include the D-subminiature DA-15 game port, USB, FireWire, Ethernet or a proprietary connection.

Some microassemblers are more generalized and are not targeted at a single computer architecture.

Some of Restchitzki's results on memory and problem solving have recently been simulated by Fernand Gobet with the CHREST computer model.

Some maze solving methods are designed to be used inside the maze by a traveler with no prior knowledge of the maze, whereas others are designed to be used by a person or computer program that can see the whole maze at once.

Some users find that data input is quicker on their computer than on their PDA, since text input via a touchscreen or small-scale keyboard is slower than a full-size keyboard.

Some PDAs can synchronize some or all of their data using their wireless networking capabilities, rather than having to be directly connected to a personal computer via a cable.

Some computer systems store user passwords as cleartext, against which to compare user log on attempts.

Some robots require some degree of guidance, which may be done using a remote control, or with a computer interface.

Some architectures use a particular register as an accumulator in some instructions, but other instructions use register numbers for explicit operand specification.

Some systems using these older architectures are still in use today in data centers with high data volume needs, or where existing systems are so complex and abstract it would be cost-prohibitive to migrate to systems employing the relational model ; also of note are newer object-oriented databases.

Some systems ( particularly older, microcode-based architectures ) can also perform various transcendental functions such as exponential or trigonometric calculations, though in most modern processors these are done with software library routines.

Some designs also contain multiple architectures and configurations.

Some parallel computer architectures use smaller, lightweight versions of threads known as fibers, while others use bigger versions known as processes.

Some of the available SQL database firewalls provide / support honeypot architectures to let the intruder run against a trap database while the web application still runs as usual.

Some of the most popular architectures for cognitive modeling include ACT-R and Soar.

Some architectures reflects a Mudéjar style, while others reflect the cultural influence of the Netherlands through the colony of Curacao.

Some processor architectures, such as the Motorola 68000, Motorola 6809, WDC 65C816, Knuth's MMIX, ARM and x86-64 allow referencing data by offset from the program counter.

Some modern debug architectures, like ARM CoreSight and Nexus, provide internal and external bus master access without needing to halt and take over a CPU.

Some critics regard SOA as merely an obvious evolution of well-deployed architectures ( open interfaces, etc.

Some architectures provide multiple barriers for enforcing different ordering constraints.

Some architectures, including the ubiquitous x86 / x64, provide several memory barrier instructions including an instruction sometimes called " full fence ".

Some architectures provide separate memory barriers to control ordering between different combinations of system memory and I / O memory.

Some current computer architectures ( e. g. IBM / 390 and Intel Pentium ) contain some instructions with implicit operands in order to maintain backwards compatibility with earlier designs.

Some architectures, like the non-hardware-assisted x86, do not meet these conditions, so they cannot be virtualized in the classic way.

Some computer architectures still reserve the beginning of address space for other purposes, though ; for instance, Intel x86 systems reserve the first 512 words of address space for the interrupt table if they run in real mode.

Some architectures include other stages such as memory access.

Some labels used to denote classes of CPU architectures are not particularly descriptive, especially so the CISC label ; many early designs retroactively denoted " CISC " are in fact significantly simpler than modern RISC processors ( in several respects ).

Some cognitive architectures or models are based on a set of generic rules, as, e. g., the Information Processing Language ( e. g., Soar based on the unified theory of cognition, or similarly ACT-R ).

Some architectures, compilers, or optimization cases store one link for each enclosing level ( not just the immediately enclosing ), so that deeply nested routines that access shallow data do not have to traverse several links ; this strategy is often called a display.

Some architectures like MIPS have special unaligned load and store instructions.
