The power of processors (computers) are generally measured in MIPS, or Million Instructions Per Second.
However, this is a subjective term because it depends on the instruction mix, cache hit/miss ratio, processor versus cache versus memory speed, and various other factors. Benchmark tests for processors are very complex, diverse, and relatively standardized so that useful comparisons can be made from them.
What else can I help you with?
What are the units in which processors speed is measured?
GIgaBytes The actual measurement of processors in in GHz. For example, a processor with 3.12GHz is faster than a 2.76GHz processor.
How is the speed of processors measured?
It is measured in terms of the number mathematical operations, called of floating point operations (flops) that it can carry out in a second.
What units are clock speeds measured in?
They're measured in Hz, or cycles per second. Modern processors run in the megahertz or gigahertz range.
Does a desktop browser use more or less power than a laptop processor of the same speed?
Laptop processors are designed to use less power and create less heat than desktop processors laptop processors are used less power.
What is power measured in?
Power is measured in watts.
What size are processors and what kind of power do they have?
66897
Power is measured in j per what?
Power is measured in Joules per Kilowatt.
Is the power of engines measured in hydraulic power or horsepower?
Engine power is measured in horsepower.
How is power measured in an engine?
Power is measured in both torque and horsepower.
What are the differences between apple and IBM processors?
Apple worked with IBM and Motorola to develop the Power PC processors which were a development of IBM's POWER1 processor. Apple used Power PC processors in their range of Macintosh computers between 1994 and 2006 when Apple switched to using the processors from Intel's range. IBM produces a range of processors for all types of devices including the Cell processor used in Sony's PlayStation (The X Box also uses a Power PC processor). (See links below) In 2008 Apple spent $278 million to acquire PA Semi a company which designs processors based on the Power PC model. It is not known what Apple intends to do with processors designed by the company.
Does a desktop processor use more power than a laptop processor of the same speed?
Laptop processors are designed to use less power and create less heat than desktop processors.
When work is measured in joules and time is measured in seconds power is measured in what unit?
Power is measured in watts when work is measured in joules and time is measured in seconds.
