Nyquist frequency signal, whereas "Nyquist frequency" is a property of a discrete-time system. When the function domain is time, sample rates are usually expressed in samples per second, and the unit of Nyquist frequency is cycles per second (hertz). When the function domain is distance, as in an image sampling system, the sample rate might be dots per inch and the corresponding Nyquist frequency would be in cycles/inch. Referring again to Figure 1, undersampling of the sinusoid at 0.6 f is what allows there to be a lower-frequency "alias", which is a different function that produces the same set of samples. That
Cycles per instruction Cycles per instruction In computer architecture, cycles per instruction (aka clock cycles per instruction, clocks per instruction, or CPI) is one aspect of a processor's performance: the average number of clock cycles per instruction for a program or program fragment. It is the multiplicative inverse of instructions per cycle. The average of Cycles Per Instruction in a given process is defined by the following: formula_1 Where formula_2 is the number of instructions for a given instruction type formula_3, formula_4 is the clock-cycles for that instruction type and formula_5 is the total instruction count. The summation sums over all instruction types
