little-endian
There is little endian byte ordering support in Java found in the java.nio package (see ByteBuffer and ByteOrder class).
"Little Endian" means that the lower-order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address, and the high-order byte at the highest address. For example, a 4 byte Integer Byte3 Byte2 Byte1 Byte0 will be arranged in memory as follows: Base Address+0 Byte0 Base Address+1 Byte1 Base Address+2 Byte2 Base Address+3 Byte3 Intel processors (those used in PC's) use "Little Endian" byte order. "Big Endian" means that the high-order byte of the number is stored in memory at the lowest address, and the low-order byte at the highest address. The same 4 byte integer would be stored as: Base Address+0 Byte3 Base Address+1 Byte2 Base Address+2 Byte1 Base Address+3 Byte0 Motorola processors (those used in Mac's) use "Big Endian" byte order.
store word = sw in MIPS We use it in the following format sw regs, addr It stores the word in register regs to address addr.
There are n no. of ways for determining endianness of your machine. Here is one quick way of doing the same.#include <stdio.h> int main() { unsigned int i = 1; char *c = (char*)&i; if (*c) printf("Little endian"); else printf("Big endian"); getchar(); return 0; } In the above program, a character pointer c is pointing to an integer i. Since size of character is 1 byte when the character pointer is de-referenced it will contain only first byte of integer. If machine is little endian then *c will be 1 (because last byte is stored first) and if machine is big endian then *c will be 0.

An Endian firewall can be used for monitoring site traffic, configuring a DHCP server, and prioritizing IP traffic. It can also provide detailed system status information.
MIPS stands fro what?
Both little and big endian are still in use today. In big endian the most significant byte is the smallest address stored. In little endian the least significant byte is the smallest address stored.
MIPS Technologies's population is 146.
MIPS architecture was created in 1981.
MIPS Technologies was created in 1984.
The population of MIPS Technologies is 2,010.
A server built using MIPS processors.
Big endian does not change the ordering, so it is stored as 0x1234
MIPS is an acronym that means a million instructions per second. This is a computing term that is used to describe various different computer processes.
MIPS= Millions of Instructions per Second
