Voorbeeldzinnen

  1. a central processing unit (server) and
  2. The synchronisation of two central processing units by "software" so that one central processing unit recognises when the other central processing unit fails and recovers tasks from the failing unit.
  3. The interconnection of two "digital computers" so that, if the active central processing unit fails, an idling but mirroring central processing unit can continue the system's functioning;
  4. a central processing unit with a keyboard, mouse and a visual display (personal computer),
  5. CPU central processing unit TP theoretical performance (of a single "CE") "CTP"
  6. The interconnection of two central processing units by data channels or by use of shared storage to permit one central processing unit to perform other work until the second central processing unit fails, at which time the first central processing unit takes over in order to continue the system's functioning; or
  7. The interconnection of two central processing units by data channels or by using shared storage to permit one central processing unit to perform other work until the second central processing unit fails, at which time the first central processing unit takes over in order to continue the system's functioning; or
  8. it is connectable to the central processing unit either directly or through one or more other units; and
  9. Comprising in the same housing at least a central processing unit and an input and output unit, whether or not combined
  10. Comprising in the same housing at least a central processing unit and an input and output unit, whether or not combined:
  11. Portable digital automatic data-processing machines, weighing not more than 10 kg, consisting of at least a central processing unit, a keyboard and a display
  12. CPA 26.20.13: Digital automatic data processing machines, comprising in the same housing at least a central processing unit and an input and an output unit, whether or not combined
  13. For the purposes of subheading 847149, the term ‘systems’ means automatic data-processing machines whose units satisfy the conditions laid down in note 5(C) to Chapter 84 and which comprise at least a central processing unit, one input unit (for example, a keyboard or a scanner), and one output unit (for example, a visual display unit or a printer).
  14. Computers are composed of, at a minimum: (1) a central processing unit (CPU) to perform A.operations; (2) user input devices such as a keyboard, mouse, digitizer or game controller; and (3) a computer display screen to output information.
  15. "Main storage" (4) means the primary storage for data or instructions for rapid access by a central processing unit. It consists of the internal storage of a "digital computer" and any hierarchical extension thereto, such as cache storage or non-sequentially accessed extended storage.
