Byte addressing Byte addressing Byte addressing refers to hardware architectures which support accessing individual bytes of data rather than only larger units called words, which would be "word-addressable". Such computers are sometimes called "byte machines" (in contrast to "word machines"). The basic unit of digital storage is called a bit, storing a single 0 or 1. Many common architectures can address more than 8 bits of data at a time. For example, the Intel 386SX processor can handle 16-bit (two-byte) data, since data is transferred over a 16-bit bus. However, data in memory may be of various lengths. A 64-bit architecture machine
Byte (dinghy) Byte (dinghy) The Byte is a small one-design sailing dinghy sailed by one person. It was designed by Canadian Ian Bruce, who also commissioned and marketed the Laser. The Byte began as an inexpensive version of the Europe dinghy that could target sailors weighing between . The Byte is long, wide and roughly . The hull is composed of glass reinforced polyester and foam sandwich. The Byte is designed for sailors weighing although most sailors weighing should have no problems sailing this boat on a recreational basis. The Byte sail size is only making it the ideal boat for those
