The Athlon utilizes the Alpha 21264's EV6 bus architecture with double data rate ( DDR ) technology.

DEC's last major attempt to find a space in the rapidly changing market was the DEC Alpha 64-bit RISC processor architecture.

Alpha, originally known as Alpha AXP, is a 64-bit reduced instruction set computer ( RISC ) instruction set architecture ( ISA ) developed by Digital Equipment Corporation ( DEC ), designed to replace the 32-bit VAX complex instruction set computer ( CISC ) ISA and its implementations.

Compaq, already an Intel customer, decided to phase out Alpha in favor of the forthcoming Hewlett-Packard / Intel Itanium architecture, and sold all Alpha intellectual property to Intel in 2001, effectively killing the product.

Eventually that new architecture became Alpha.

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 middle digit corresponded to the generation of the Alpha architecture.

The Alpha architecture was intended to be a high-performance design.

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.

In the Alpha architecture, a byte was defined as an 8-bit datum, a word as a 16-bit datum, a longword as a 32-bit datum, a quadword as a 64-bit datum and an octaword as a 128-bit datum.

The Alpha architecture originally defined six data types:

To maintain a level of compatibility with VAX, the 32-bit architecture the Alpha succeeded, two VAX data types were included:

The architecture greatly influenced later RISC architectures such as Alpha.

This was encouraged by the support of the first two versions of Microsoft's Windows NT for Alpha, MIPS and PowerPC-and to a lesser extent the Clipper architecture and SPARC.

The 68030 was used in many models of the Apple Macintosh II and Commodore Amiga series of personal computers, NeXT Cube, Sun Microsystems Sun 3 / 80 desktop workstation ( a member of the " sun3x " architecture, where the earlier " sun3 " used a 68020 ), later Alpha Microsystems multiuser systems, and some descendants of the Atari ST line such as the Atari TT and the Atari Falcon.

< tt > MMIX </ tt > ( pronounced em-mix ) is a 64-bit RISC architecture designed by Donald Knuth, with significant contributions by John L. Hennessy ( who contributed to the design of the MIPS architecture ) and Richard L. Sites ( who was an architect of the Alpha architecture ).

Tru64 UNIX is a 64-bit UNIX operating system for the Alpha instruction set architecture ( ISA ), currently owned by Hewlett-Packard ( HP ).

OSF / 1 AXP was a full 64-bit operating system and the native UNIX implementation for the Alpha architecture.

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

Her husband, who is the son of Alton John Mason of Shreveport, La., and the late Mrs. Henry Cater Parmer, was president of Alpha Tau Omega and a member of Delta Sigma Pi at Lamar Tech, and did graduate work at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa, on a Rotary Fellowship.

Alpha was derived from aleph, which in Phoenician means " ox ".

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.

In the fall of 1980, she transferred to Vanderbilt University, where she was a member of the sorority Kappa Alpha Theta.

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.

While in college, he became a brother of Alpha Phi Omega and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.

Since in a majority of constellations the brightest star is designated Alpha ( α ), many people wrongly assume that Bayer meant to put the stars exclusively in order of their brightness, but in his day there was no way to measure stellar brightness precisely.

Alpha 3 of Haiku was released in June 2011.

The 1999 game Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri was also created by Meier and is in the same genre, but with a futuristic / space theme.

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.

In a CNN interview, John Landis said the movie was " based on Chris Miller's real fraternity at Dartmouth ", Alpha Delta Phi.

The film Alpha and Omega, which was his last movie role, was dedicated to him.

Alpha was implemented in microprocessors originally developed and fabricated by DEC.

Alpha was born out of an earlier RISC project named PRISM, itself the final product of several earlier projects.

The Alpha was designed as 64-bit from the start and there is no 32-bit version.

The first version, the Alpha 21064 or EV4, was the first CMOS microprocessor whose operating frequency rivalled higher-powered ECL minicomputers and mainframes.

In September 2001 the opposition leader Alpha Condé was imprisoned for endangering state security, though he was pardoned 8 months later.

In addition, random " boosters " of " Alpha Mutation " and " Omega Tech " cards for players are sold separately in packs of eight.

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.

Genera is also sold by Symbolics as Open Genera, which runs Genera on computers based on an Alpha processor using Tru64 UNIX.

Symbolics developed a Genera version, named Open Genera, that included a virtual machine that enabled executing Genera on DEC Alpha based workstations, plus several Genera extensions and applications that were sold separately ( like the Symbolics S-Graphics suite ).

Although the first commercial sales were for VAX / VMS, from the mid-1980s the main Poplog development work was done on Sun SPARC computers running Solaris, although several different versions were sold, including versions for HP-UX and a 64-bit version of Poplog for DEC Alpha running Digital UNIX.

During 1970 they also left the site and Alpha Television went into voluntary liquidation and the site sold.

* 1965-1980 R / V Alpha Helix ( Transferred to University of Alaska, Fairbanks in 1980 ( UAF sold vessel in 2007 to Stabbert Maritime )

** From Limited Edition Alpha to Limited Edition Beta, as well as the expansions Legends, The Dark, Arabian Nights, Fallen Empires, and Antiquities, cards were sold in 8 card booster packs.

Skai TV was sold, and soon became known as " Alpha-Sky " before completely phasing in to its new name as Alpha TV.

In June 2007, Dennis sold his US magazine operation which published the magazines Blender, Maxim and Stuff to Alpha Media Group.

Alpha TV is owned by Luxembourg media giant RTL Group ; previous owner Dimitris Kontominas sold majority share in the channel to RTL Group in 2008.

In September 2008, Dimitris Kontominas sold a majority share ( 66. 6 %) of Alpha TV and Alpha Radio to Luxembourg media company RTL Group.

* 1999 Alpha TV sold, renamed Alpha-Sky and later A-Sky during a transition period.

* 2008 Alpha TV & Alpha Radio are sold to RTL Group, who now control majority share in the company

The first generation of commercially marketed DEC Alpha systems, the DEC 3000 AXP series, were similar in some respects to contemporaneous MIPS-based DECstations, which were sold alongside the Alpha systems as the DECstation line was gradually phased out.

The Newry & Down Democrat was sold to the Alpha Newspaper Group subject to Competition Authority approval in September 2010.

After being sold at BotCon a limited number of Alpha Trion and Weirdwolf sets were sold on the Transformers Collectors Club web site.
