The grouped processing components would then have the capability to process the chosen full word-length of a particular software design.

Famous quotes containing the word bit:
“Take a decayed Christian ... and the remains of a Stoic; mix thoroughly with good manners, a bit of money and an old-fashioned education; simmer for several years in a university. Result: a scholar and a gentleman. Well, there were worse types of human being.”
