Computation of cyclic redundancy checks may use whichever form is more convenient. Parallel update for a byte or a word at a time can also be done explicitly, without a table. This is normally used in high-speed hardware implementations. For each bit an equation is solved after 8 bits have been shifted in. The following tables list the equations for some commonly used polynomials, using following symbols: As the CRC-32 polynomial has a large number of terms, when computing the remainder a byte at a time each bit depends on several bits of the previous iteration. In byte-parallel hardware implementations this calls for either multiple-input
Byte (magazine) resumed publication after a few years of interruption. The Arabic edition also ended abruptly. Many of "Byte"'s columnists migrated their writing to personal web sites. One was science fiction author Jerry Pournelle's weblog "The View From Chaos Manor" derived from a long-standing column in "Byte", describing computers from a power user's point of view. After the closure of "Byte" magazine, Pournelle's column continued to be published in the Turkish editions of "PC World", which was soon renamed as "PC Life" in Turkey. "Byte Japan", with the name licensed from McGraw Hill, was the leading computer magazine in Japan, Published by
