bug
défaut m

Bug. An error in a program or a malfunction in the operation of the computer. The malfunction can be removed by implementing diagnostic routines to discover the malfunction and then by debugging.

bus
bus m

Bus. A path around the computer consisting of a set of wires through which signals are transmitted in parallel.
These signals can originate from anywhere on the bus and be transmitted to any destination.
For example: In a microcomputer, the address bus carries signals to select a specific storage location. Then the data bus can carry signals to transmit data to that location.

byte
multiplet m

Byte. A name given to a group of eight binary digits that usually represent a single character that the computer treats as a single unit. (Any group of binary digits treated as a unit of work is called a word.)
For example, some computers use 32-bit words that are made up of different combinations, such as two sets of 16 bits. In the case of 18-bit words, each character can be encoded using six binary digits. The letter A might be represented by 100001, C by 100011, and T by 110100. Thus, a three-letter message would be encoded as follows:

100011100001110100

This is treated as an 18-bit word. Longer messages require more than one word. In this case, 6 bits make up one bit and 3 bits make up one word.
