| bloco de bits | bit block (In computer graphics and display, a rectangular group of pixels treated as a unit. Bit blocks are so named because they are, literally, blocks of bits describing the pixels' display characteristics, such as color and intensity. Programmers use bit blocks and a technique called bit block transfer (bitblt) to display images rapidly on the screen and to animate them) |

| computador de 64 bits | 64 bit machine (A computer that works with data in groups of 64 bits at a time. A computer may be considered a 64-bit machine either because its CPU operates internally on 64-bit words or because its data bus can transfer 64 bits at a time. A 64-bit CPU thus has a word size of 64 bits, or 8 bytes; a 64-bit data bus has 64 data lines, so it ferries information through the system in sets of 64 bits at a time. Examples of 64-bit architecture include the Alpha AXP from Digital Equipment Corporation, the Ultra workstation from Sun Microsystems, Inc., and the PowerPC 620 from Motorola and IBM) |
| computador de 32 bits | 32 bit machine (A computer that works with data in groups of 32 bits at a time. The Apple Macintosh II and higher models are 32-bit machines, in terms of both the word size of their microprocessors and the size of the data buses, as are computers based on the Intel 80386 and higher-level microprocessors) |

| criptografia de 40 bits | 40-bit encryption (A low level of encryption that uses a 40-bit key to scramble the contents of a file or data packet to make the data unreadable without the decryption key) |
| criptografia de 128 bits | 128-bit encryption (A high level of encryption that uses a 128-bit key to scramble the contents of a file or data packet to make the data unreadable without the decryption key) |
| criptografia SSL de 128 bits | 128-bit SSL encryption (An encryption level used for SSL. The number refers to the length of the key, so the higher the number, the more difficult the encryption is to break) |
| Descritor de Mapas de Bits de Espaço | Space Bitmap Descriptor (A bitmap describing the utilization of blocks allocated to a metadata partition) |
| encriptação SSL de 128 bits | 128-bit SSL encryption (An encryption level used for SSL. The number refers to the length of the key, so the higher the number, the more difficult the encryption is to break) |
| especificação de bits | bit specification (The number of colors or levels of gray that can be displayed at one time. The amount or memory in the computer's graphics controller card controls the display. An 8-bit controller can display 256 colors or levels of gray; a 16-bit controller, 64,000 colors; and a 24-bit controller, 16.8 million colors) |
| fluxo de bits | bit stream (In synchronous communications, a continuous flow of data in which characters in the stream are separated from one another by the receiving station rather than by markers, such as start and stop bits, inserted into the data) |
| identificador de máscara de bits | bitmask identifier (A name assigned to a bitmask to help identify its purpose) |
| limitação da taxa de bits | bit-rate throttling (The ability to slow down the rate at which files can be downloaded) |
| mapa de bits | bitmap (A data structure in memory that represents information in the form of a collection of individual bits. A bit map is used to represent a bit image. Another use of a bit map in some systems is the representation of the blocks of storage on a disk, indicating whether each block is free (0) or in use) |
| mapa de bits do volume | volume bitmap (A stored reference (which may exist both on hierarchical directory volumes and in memory) to every piece of data that is in the allocation blocks and indicates whether the block is allocated or free for use) |
| máquina de 32 bits | 32 bit machine (A computer that works with data in groups of 32 bits at a time. The Apple Macintosh II and higher models are 32-bit machines, in terms of both the word size of their microprocessors and the size of the data buses, as are computers based on the Intel 80386 and higher-level microprocessors) |
| máscara de bits | bitmask (A numeric value intended for a bit-by-bit value comparison with other numeric values, typically to flag options in parameter or return values. Usually this comparison is done with bitwise logical operators, such as And and Or in Visual Basic, && and || in C++) |
| máscara de bits | bit mask (A numeric value intended for a bit-by-bit value comparison with other numeric values, typically to flag options in parameter or return values. Usually this comparison is done with bitwise logical operators, such as And and Or in Visual Basic, && and || in C++) |
