With relational databases, the performance of moving from record to record is fixed and is, in fact, one CPU instruction.

Disabling interrupts requires using a privileged CPU instruction, so this must either be translated or trapped and emulated.

It does this by implementing protocol commands in hardware and significantly reducing the number of CPU instructions needed to send one byte to the printer.

For example, timing differences may be detectable in CPU instructions.

Thus, the CPU instructions used to access the memory can also be used for accessing devices.

Process times are a tally of CPU instructions or clock cycles and generally have no direct correlation to wall time.

Most memory-related CPU instructions can not access all the bits of 48-bit memory, but a special 48-bit register is provided for this purpose.

They help the programs analyze chess positions with few CPU instructions and hold a massive number of positions in memory efficiently.

A buffer is a temporary memory location that is traditionally used because CPU instructions cannot directly address data stored in peripheral devices.

CPU instructions instruct the arithmetic and logic unit to perform various calculations or other operations on this data (or with the help of it).
