Multiple buffering. Sets 1, 2 and 3 represent the operation of single, double and triple buffering, respectively, with vertical synchronization (vsync) enabled. In each graph, time flows from left to right. Note that 3 shows a swap chain with three buffers; the original definition of triple buffering would throw away frame C as soon as frame D ...
Screen tearing[ 1] is a visual artifact in video display where a display device shows information from multiple frames in a single screen draw. [ 2] The artifact occurs when the video feed to the device is not synchronized with the display's refresh rate. That can be caused by non-matching refresh rates, and the tear line then moves as the ...
A buffer solution is a solution where the pH does not change significantly on dilution or if an acid or base is added at constant temperature. [1] Its pH changes very little when a small amount of strong acid or base is added to it. Buffer solutions are used as a means of keeping pH at a nearly constant value in a wide variety of chemical ...
Bicarbonate buffer system. Carbon dioxide, a by-product of cellular respiration, is dissolved in the blood, where it is taken up by red blood cells and converted to carbonic acid by carbonic anhydrase. Most of the carbonic acid then dissociates to bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. The bicarbonate buffer system is an acid-base homeostatic mechanism ...
Good's buffers. Good's buffers (also Good buffers) are twenty buffering agents for biochemical and biological research selected and described by Norman Good and colleagues during 1966–1980. [ 1][ 2][ 3] Most of the buffers were new zwitterionic compounds prepared and tested by Good and coworkers for the first time, though some ( MES, ADA, BES ...
Bufferbloat is a cause of high latency and jitter in packet-switched networks caused by excess buffering of packets. Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput. When a router or switch is configured to use excessively large buffers, even very high-speed networks can ...
Framebuffer. A framebuffer ( frame buffer, or sometimes framestore) is a portion of random-access memory (RAM) [ 1] containing a bitmap that drives a video display. It is a memory buffer containing data representing all the pixels in a complete video frame. [ 2] Modern video cards contain framebuffer circuitry in their cores.
Z-buffering is a technique used in almost all contemporary computers, laptops, and mobile phones for performing 3D computer graphics. The primary use now is for video games, which require fast and accurate processing of 3D scenes. Z-buffers are often implemented in hardware within consumer graphics cards. Z-buffering is also used (implemented ...
