Single Byte Character System
- scalar
-
A single operation performed on a single data element D = A+ B
- scalar processor
-
A processor that can perform only one instruction on one data element at a time
- SIMD
-
Single instruction multiple data. A computer instruction that performs the same instruction in parallel for a series of isolated packed data blocks.
- single-precision floating-point
-
A standard format (32-bit) storage of floating-point data
- SMM

System Management Mode
- SNaN
-
Signaled Not a Number
- SoA
-
Structure of Arrays
- squirrely
-
A term I use in an attempt to explain the behavior of a piece of code
- superscalar processor
-
A processor that performs similarly to a scalar processor but can handle multiple data operations simultaneously
