SCSI high byte termination case where there is only one 16-bit (wide) device connected to one or more 8-bit (narrow) devices. Then it is possible to wire all the eight spare data bits and the ninth parity bit together and to terminate them with a single resistor circuit to TERMPOWER. So in the case of a differential SCSI bus, it is possible to terminate all 18 spare signal wires with just one resistor. This method is not considered good practice, but has been successfully used in some SCSI products. SCSI high byte termination In SCSI computer systems, there is a special case with mixed
Many-task computing may be small or large, uniprocessor or multiprocessor, compute-intensive or data-intensive. The set of tasks may be static or dynamic, homogeneous or heterogeneous, loosely coupled or tightly coupled. The aggregate number of tasks, quantity of computing, and volumes of data may be extremely large. MTC includes loosely coupled applications that are generally communication-intensive but not naturally expressed using standard message passing interface commonly found in HPC, drawing attention to the many computations that are heterogeneous but not "happily" parallel". Raicu et al. further state: "There is more to HPC than tightly coupled MPI, and more to HTC than embarrassingly parallel
